Arcane Spell Language

Learn American Sign Language through a Virtual Reality Spell Battler

Arcane Spell Language uses Virtual Reality (VR) to teach American Sign Language (ASL) while battling dragons. Players can throw fire, water, and earth at their opponent to be the best ASL Wizard there is!

Social Impact

Why Arcane Spell Language?

Our game allows for more people to learn how to communicate with deaf and hard-of-hearing individuals, fostering inclusivity in a fun way. This game also helps jump-start your learning of ASL in a professional setting. More advanced signs will be added in the future!

Features!

Single Player Mode​

Players cast spells at dragons as the clock counts down to zero. Gain as many points as possible to prove your mastery by defeating as many dragons as possible!

​

Be wary—the dragon is not friendly and will fire spells at you that do damage.
