About Vice Verba - Latin Verb Game
Vice Verba helps students of Latin master verb forms. Players parse verbs and produce forms to earn togas. When enough togas are collected, an ‘imago’ of a famous dead Roman is unlocked. Collect all XII ‘imagines’, and don’t forget to flip the ‘imagines’ over to see their stats! Players can customize the game by choosing tenses, voices, and moods, and the presence or absence of macrons. The game increases in difficulty as the player’s skills improve.
Vice Verba was inspired by the ‘Hoplite Challenge Cup’, a non-digital game created by Drs. Hardy Hansen and Gerald Quinn for the intensive Greek program at CUNY. Thanks to Dr. Hansen for his encouragement and advice at the earliest stages of development. Thanks also to the University of Winnipeg for its generous financial support.

Wonderful app, enjoyable and effective! Would love more sample verbs and Imāginēs to strive for. Text doesn't quite fit my Nexus 5 screen, but still workable.

This needs to be advertised more, it is a great, great way to practice conjugations. Now I just need one for Greek!

An excellent app for learning the conjugation of regular Latin verbs. The interface allows the learner to select the combination of person, number, tense, aspect, and mood that they wish to practice. The quiz-like format combines both recognition of verb forms presented on the screen and typing in specified forms: an effective pedagogic method. The accumulation of points to reveal lighthearted character sketches is both fun and surprisingly motivating. If further financial support were to be made available to the developers, the addition of the most common irregular verbs would be a welcome addition. A similar app for declining nouns would also be much appreciated. In short: if you're learning Latin, get this app!
