Скачать или смотреть Learn German with Hogs of War: strategy vocab, humor & context (A2–B1)

I’m using the cult PS1 strategy game Hogs of War to learn real German in context: short on-screen phrases, strategy terms you’ll actually hear, and the game’s trademark humor to make it stick. 🎮

What you’ll learn today:
• Core strategy words in context (Befehl, Angriff, Deckung, Heilung, Munition)
• Useful lines you’ll hear a lot in missions and menus
• Why repetition + visuals in gameplay boost retention — without boring drills

Level: A2–B1

If you enjoyed this, tell me which retro game I should cover next — and the German words that stuck with you.

❓ FAQ
Q: Can retro games really help you learn German?
A: Yes — studies show games can improve vocabulary gains and retention when language is tied to actions and feedback.
Q: What is Hogs of War?
A: A turn-based tactics classic (PS1/PC, 2000) with comedic voice acting (Rik Mayall in English), now a cult favorite.
