Let's start with the premise itself: Groundhog Day meets Memento. The game experience revolves around 'days': you explore the world and the clock slowly ticks towards the evening. You bounce around picking up gems and talking to the denizens of 'Level Upland'. Eventually you feel tired and head back to ...

Latin is a dead language,
dead as it can be.
First it killed the Romans,
now it's killing me.
I also studied Latin, and think this will be a fun way for any Latin scholar to practice.

I love that Latin is now on there...in the web 2.0 era, it's so smart to build a platform that allows for user-generated contented. But a fundamental feature of the facebook brand that goes hand-in-hand with this concept is that of keeping control in the hands of the users.
Reports that users' pictures have been used on a jailbait site have been met with apathy by Facebook..., just as when facebook received complaints from users after its last major over-haul, it disregarded its target market's concerns.
This attitude does Not represent a good marketing strategy.

Facebook might have just done it, but NING beat them to it with an all-Latin social network online over 2 years ago already.
This is http://schola.ning.com and has over 1170 members as of now.
Web 2.0 is proving very good for Latin, and there is an increasing amount of good quality Latin educational material available online for free - for example http://latinum.mypodcast.com , which teaches Latin using audio and the growing collection of Latin children's books on the tar heel reader site http://tarheelreader.org
There are even sites that use audio and avatars such as latinforchildren. blogspot.com
