Costello is an internet-based fantasy role-playing game just like games for console stations like the Final Fantasy series. Only Costello is a much better game than Final Fantasy! It is also designed to help people practice and study English.

What makes Costello so great?

• The Costello world is huge, with over 10,000 places to visit.
• Costello is an internet game so you can talk and interact with other players.
• Costello has many exciting adventures or 'quests', some are very easy and others a real challenge.
• Costello allows you to stretch your imagination to new limits.
• You can create your own areas and adventures within the Costello world. Other players can then enjoy the areas you made.

How does it help English?

• Costello has no pictures or graphics. It is made of only English words and so to imagine the Costello world you must carefully read the descriptions of Costello. If you don't read the text carefully you will not understand the game situations and it will be uninteresting.
• To play the game you must enter English commands which the computer checks for basic grammar. It will correct basic grammar mistakes. It also gives you language points and you get more points for entering longer sentences.
• Conversation with other players is of course in English and the player you're talking with could be actually sitting anywhere in the world.
• Making your own areas and adventures is great fun but everything must be written in English!
