It looks good to start with, you learn basic words, but it takes ages to teach any conversational skills, which is what you need in the beginning. Also it takes so much energy to work out the right answer without knowing the grammar rules. It is too easy just to guess an answer and never really understand the grammer. A few guidelines and English translation would be much better. Because of the nature of the pictures it is mostly third person in the beginning, whereas what you really need is first person, and to be able to say how are you, I am fine, my name is etc. It seems like an arrogant program, just using the one method of guessing ¼ pictures, while it would have been much better with a multi faceted approach. Too expensive, overrated, disappointing
