Let's say you only speak English, and you want a fun way to learn 100 common words in Spanish. Here's an option. Part of a series of four apps (one per language), this noisy, fun quiz game turns your iPad into a two player race, to see which player can match common Spanish words the fastest. Content includes 100 words that range from numbers and colors, to food and animals. There are a total of four Quick Tap language titles. Two players race head to head - on the same iPad - to match Spanish words with their English translations. As each word appears on screen the player that is quicker to hit the match button wins the round. While the app is noisy, it is possible to pause at any time. The first player to win 7 rounds becomes the champ. Content includes different word lists across 10 different topical categories, including numbers, colors, body parts, family members, calendar, time, food, school, the world and animals. This app is part of the Fingerprint Network of games which offers a curated list of other apps. Besides the link to the store on the main menu and a prompt for push notifications, there is no pressure to purchase additional Fingerprint apps. Drawbacks include the use of an unconventional font, and print that is too small for use on smaller screens. This is not a major problem.
