What does the app offer?

Learning languages with fun with the KIKUS Picture Cards.

Even without any previous knowledge of the language you can start immediately: 240 words of basic vocabulary (nouns, adjectives, verbs, prepositions, numbers) and first steps in grammar help you to get started in a new language – no: in many new languages!

The KIKUS app is the perfect complement to our language learning software KIKUS interaktiv!

Here we go!

  1. Search for & download the KIKUS App in the Google Playstore (Android) or the App Store (Apple). Alternatively, use the QR codes.
  2. Start the KIKUS App.
  3. Select the desired card and user language.
  4. Select the game and off you go. Have fun!

Start games

Example: Sound-word-picture

  • Select cards: family, body, clothing, food, animals, around the house, etc.
  • Select difficulty level: EASY, MEDIUM or DIFFICULT
  • Select number of passes: 8, 16 or 24
  • Then start the game with the green arrow
  • Now click on the eavesdropper at the top right of the large card and drag the matching picture card from the bottom onto the word card.

If the card doesn’t fit, it jumps back into place. And you just try it with the next picture card! Mistakes are allowed 🙂
