TAHLEQUAH, Okla. – Thornton Media Inc. has developed a new 3-D video game designed to help revitalize the Cherokee language. Formerly called “RezWorld,” the newly named “Talking Games” gives players the chance to learn Cherokee while playing a video game. “In some ways it’s a regular role-playing 3-D video game, but in this game, it’s equipped with an automated speech recognizer with the target language and you have certain goals that you have to meet at every level,” TMI President and CEO Don Thornton said.
