At Greyland Games, we’re all about making it easier for you to settle into a new country and find work in the field you’re trained for. How? With fun and innovative vocational language games! Forget the old-school methods—our approach is all about learning the language you need for the job through interactive, immersive gaming.
Why games? Research shows that people remember way more—up to 90% of what they learn—when they get to practice in a hands-on way, like gaming, compared to only 10% from just reading*. Our games blend gameplay with job-specific language skills, so you’re not just learning words; you’re getting practical language experience that sticks.
Our pilot game dives into the world of hospitality—think working in a restaurant or bar. For now, you’ll get to step into the role of a bartender, waiter, and chef (we’ll be expanding to more specific roles soon!). The goal? Take orders, prep food, serve drinks, and navigate real-life interactions without translations. Instead, you’ll use visual hints to understand and respond to customers, making the experience realistic and engaging.
No more textbook-style learning—this is hands-on, it’s practical, and it’s fun!
A huge shout-out to our amazing team! Katerina brought on Bianca Jalonen as our Game Artist and Graphic Designer, and Christian Peräkivi and Tapio Ylihonkaluoma have made the tech magic happen. In just three months, they built a full visual novel that sets the stage for real-world language learning in hospitality.
We’re thrilled to see how well the game was received in beta testing, and now we’re aiming to go global! We believe our language games can help thousands build confidence in their skills and land jobs in their trained fields—while having a great time doing it.
