Very Basic, better to search for free learning in Internet: Well, not didactic at all. The program just put some basic words for you and then you repeat. All translated, which is not good at all. Instead of investing this amount of money, better to search for free Internet courses.
I got it for a good price: I bought this at a Ross for $5, which kinda says a lot for this type of program. There's definitely a disconnect between the written and the spoken. E.g. "A Apfel" is spoken, but not spelled. Donkey and island sound exactly the same because of this (I looked it up, it's actually esel and insel). The phrases that are spoken and shown don't seem to match up exactly either. I don't know German, but I DON'T think "Darf ich Ihnen meinen Freund Stefen vorstellen?" = "I'd like to introduce you to my friend" Bonus points for Mac compatibility. 5 discs total. 3 stars because it was worth $5 but not much more.
