Key Gameplay Features

Gameplay Loop

Alienguistics is a roguelite, meaning that the player's progress is determined not linearly but instead through skill. The player takes on substitute teaching jobs, hoping to last for the job's duration without getting fired for poor performance.

Each job comes with new students and a new classroom but you keep your earned money and your knowledge of the alien language, Ovian.

Students come with personality traits that impact how they learn best, so the player will have to create seating charts to best optimize their student's learning to perform better on assignments.

The player will grade these assignments, using their skill at deciphering Ovian to help them succeed. The more accurate the grades, the more money they receive.
