Spaceteam: ESL

Spaceteam ESL (English-as-a-Second-Language) is a crazy and fun English learning game you play with your friends and classmates using phones or tablets. Your team of 2-4 players is working together to fly a spaceship. To survive, you must follow the instructions and press the right buttons on your control panel on your phone. But there is a problem with your ship—your instructions are being sent to your friends’ phones, and your friends’ instructions are being sent to your phone! This means that if you want to survive, you must communicate and work together!

How long will your team be able to keep flying the ship? Will you be smashed by an asteroid? Will angry space dogs kill your ship? Or will you get burned up by a star? It all depends how well you are able to work together…as a Spaceteam!

Ha! This is brilliant!

Even though it's funny to hear people mispronounce words during gameplay, This will help include the young ones!

Great game for English learners!

This game has almost all the features as the original, plus some extras for English language learners. It’s the same frantic, wacky, chaotic, shouting game as the original, but in this version the vocabulary is mostly replaced by common nouns and verbs (e.g., “activate big computer”) instead of the made up sci-fi language of the original. This makes the game play much more approachable for language learners. In addition, there is a practice section where one can review the vocabulary from the game, hear the pronunciations, and even record and check their own pronunciation. I’ve been teaching ESL/EFL for over ten years and love using this game with my students! Highly recommended.

Interface works now

This is very similar to the original game, but with easier words, and no funny symbol levels. I think that my students will enjoy playing this game, but I wish there was more of a connection between the meanings of the words they have to use and what they do in the game.
