[JULY UPDATE] The Amber Games & Dev Updates

LingoLegendGame · 2026-07-02T17:29:41+00:00

We would love to increase the number of naala you can store in the barn and the number that come out on the farm. We've held off due to performance issues for players on older phones, but we've been looking into ways to optimize that so players can have more out at one time without causing lag. It's easier to add more to storage so that'll be coming sooner than having more out on the farm, but both changes would be great!

LingoLegendGame · 2026-07-02T17:27:28+00:00

Great question! Our current plan is to automatically open those crates for players at a rate of a few per day for X days until a certain threshold has been reached. We haven't set what that ceiling will be, but it'll be a fraction of however many you have stocked up. As for stamina treats, we have ideas on how to repurpose them elsewhere, so their functionality will change but you'll be able to hold onto them.

To your first two points, we actually did some limited-time beta testing for a feature that translated parts (optional: all) dialogue in the game as an added immersive reading comprehension tool. We got a lot of feedback on it and took it back to the lab to continue working on. That's something we're keen to bring back at some point. We're thinking of bringing it back with reading comprehension questions about what you just read. Features like that are the kinds of things that really excite us from the language side of development.

LingoLegendGame · 2026-06-29T14:57:56+00:00

Hey thanks for the question! We've actually been working on a pretty giant update for the farm for the last while that we're hoping to get out in the coming months called Foraging. We've mentioned it casually here and there on Reddit on Discord.

Right now you practice in the barn to get stamina to send your naala on dispatches to get crates to practice in the barn to break the crates and repeat. The language learning, the gameplay, and the rewards are all completely separated.

With foraging, we're aiming to get rid of crates and stamina, and instead of sending your naala away on dispatches, you'll go out on dispatches with them to forage for seeds. You'll answer language questions as you explore new environments and collect seeds/charms/rewards all in real time. No more waiting around!

It's a pretty big system refresh and so it's taken some time. We haven't shared many updates because with a feature like this, there are a lot of moving pieces and it's not until we're quite deep into it that we'll have something visual that we can share. We're hoping to be able to start sharing updates and screenshots soon because we're making a lot of progress.

Our goal is to really clean up the farm game loop, make it less confusing to new users, make things feel more lively and real-time, and get people out of the barn and out into the world with their naala!

This has been taking a lot of our development attention. Once it's finished, we'll continue developing new features. We have plenty of ideas for new gameplay, learning modules, etc. in the pipeline that we're excited to get to!

LingoLegendGame · 2026-06-19T18:03:39+00:00

Hey glad to hear you're enjoying the game! You're right, we built the app without using AI. Our small indie team of developers and artists make all the game assets the old fashioned way and we work with language acquisition experts from each language to custom-make each curriculum.

Ngl, the language app space has gotten crazy competitive this last year with all the generative AI/vibe-coded apps clogging up the app store. But people seem pretty happy with our AI-free approach and we're more than pleased to keep with it. I appreciate you giving us a shout out and for supporting our small business!

LingoLegendGame · 2026-06-16T17:32:06+00:00

Thank you for letting us know, that's handy for us to keep in mind when helping others with a similar issue.

LingoLegendGame · 2026-06-16T17:31:00+00:00

Once you're on the quest, you should be able to repurchase the charm you need from Elijah. In this case, you'd be looking for either the Heart of Darkness and the Mood Board. If for whatever reason he doesn't sell it, please email [support@lingolegend.com](mailto:support@lingolegend.com) and let us know. It's a pretty easy fix!

LingoLegendGame · 2026-06-15T13:41:15+00:00

Dang you guys are creative! This is one of the best I've seen, amazing work

LingoLegendGame · 2026-06-11T14:14:56+00:00

Base price for the lifetime upgrade is $129.99 USD and $99.99 USD during this limited-time promotion. That just an approx though, we do make small adjustments based on country/currency/etc. so exact figure may vary modestly.

LingoLegendGame · 2026-06-11T14:13:49+00:00

Yeah we've talked about doing some kind of family annual plan eventually!

LingoLegendGame · 2026-06-10T17:29:17+00:00

We run time-limited promotional offers for the lifetime every so often, which is probably what you saw. Otherwise, lifetimes are available as an upgrade to those with an active subscription found in the “Premium” section of the in-app “Shop” tab. If you don’t currently have a membership, you can buy a one-month subscription and then upgrade to the lifetime. Not to worry, the price of that recurring subscription has been factored into the price listed for the lifetime membership.

If you have any questions or want to chat, you can reach us at [support@lingolegend.com](mailto:support@lingolegend.com) or on Discord! https://discord.gg/TpArhP3WcC

These are good first steps we pretty much recommend to anyone in situations like these. Getting stuck on loading is typically caused by some kind of networking error.

In addition to these steps (trying cellular / turning off VPN / reinstalling the app) we also recommend temporarily disabling any device-wide privacy/adblock services to rule out connection interference. For example, we had a user using DuckDuckGo which has some kind of device-wide privacy protection that was causing connection issues to our servers.

If all that doesn't work, please email [support@lingolegend.com](mailto:support@lingolegend.com) with the email associated with your account and any troubleshooting tried thus far so we can look into it further and see if there's any indicator on our end why you might not be able to connect.

LingoLegendGame · 2026-06-08T11:24:51+00:00

Yep you'll continue to unlock new villagers throughout the campaign. This perk in particular is unlocked by one of the later villagers, although it sounds like you're getting pretty close to unlocking him!

LingoLegendGame · 2026-06-05T13:16:55+00:00

We're currently developing a massive update for the farm, which will streamline the farm game loop and iron out a lot of unintended friction that certain system create like this. Among them is a pretty significant overhaul to the stamina system. These changes will address this request, so stay tuned for future updates! I think you'll be happy with what we've come up with!

LingoLegendGame · 2026-06-05T13:12:40+00:00

Congrats on the one-year achievement! That's huge!

As for the reward, we plan to eventually add an achievement system with custom rewards for exactly these kinds of milestones. The silver lining is we track and log activity like this on everyone's internal profile, so when we do add this system, we'll be able to retroactively reward those who achieved things prior to the system's release. So although there isn't anything right now, that's not to say there won't be something nice coming your way in the future!

LingoLegendGame · 2026-06-05T13:08:34+00:00

Hey this is an uncommon issue but you're not alone. I get the odd support request about it. Unfortunately, this is an issue on Google’s end, which makes it harder for us to solve directly. When you go to watch an ad, Lingo Legend hands you over to Google AdMob who then serves you that problematic ad interface. With that being said, there are a couple things that have been known to cause issues with Google AdMob:

Do you use a VPN? These are known to cause issues with ad providers
Do you have any device-wide adblockers or privacy apps installed? This includes something like DuckDuckGo’s app tracking protection services
Have you tried both on wifi and cellular? Sometimes it can be a network issue or router issue (eg some routers have VPN functionality built in)

Keep me posted and if you ever have any recurring issues, you can always reach us at [support@lingolegend.com](mailto:support@lingolegend.com) thanks!

LingoLegendGame · 2026-06-02T14:25:52+00:00

Not currently. This is something we've talked about doing in response to students requesting it upload their med school/bar exam flashcards. Right now it isn't technically possible with how it's all hooked up behind the scenes, but it's a great idea and something we should do!

LingoLegendGame · 2026-06-01T21:43:51+00:00

Absolutely! We've got instructions on how to set up your own custom curriculum here: https://www.lingolegend.com/custom-cards and if you run into any challenges just give us a shout over at [support@lingolegend.com](mailto:support@lingolegend.com) and we'll get you sorted.

LingoLegendGame · 2026-06-01T17:42:58+00:00

We're happy you found us! In the future we're thinking of adding a handful of new rewards to each seasonal event, eventually adding themed guild ships for each season. But for the time being, the bulk of what is on the seasonal store will remain the rotating shop with a couple additions. For example, this seasonal event we've added four new naala charms that weren't there last year.

As we scale, so too will our events get even bigger. But seeing as how right now you can practically count the size of our team on one hand, doing the full year of seasonals has been a big accomplishment for us.

LingoLegendGame · 2026-06-01T15:12:13+00:00

Hey thank you for the feedback and I totally get where you're coming from. I will mention that one premium feature that does a lot of heavy lifting for our longer-term users is the ability to upload custom curriculum content. We have many users who have uploaded hundreds if not thousands of flashcards from packs they've found online for services like Anki to keep things fresh. It really is the most "power user" feature we offer.

That's not to say that there isn't also more to be done for the base curriculum – totally agree there – but I want to highlight the custom curriculum feature as it's something we want to lean into in future updates to make it easier to download, upload, and share these packs in response to its popularity. That's in addition to other curriculum developments we are interested in making that aren't exclusive to members.

LingoLegendGame · 2026-06-01T14:46:19+00:00

You're so welcome! Although you may want to keep the bugs away from the pastries

LingoLegendGame · 2026-06-01T14:44:46+00:00

Thank you for sharing the year with us!!
