Spanish for Everyone! is a language-learning Nintendo DS video game published by Activision. It was created and developed by an independent company, Humagade. It gained notoriety when its cutscenes, which contain subliminal stereotypical messages, were released on YouTube. The game's lead designer, Eric "EEX" Latouche, commented on OverClocked ReMix regarding the storyline and gameplay, clarifying that the game's undertones were intentional.[1] The game has been mocked for its absurd storyline and its variously racist and inappropriate undertones.[2][3][4][5][6]

Reception

Decrying the game's plot as encouraging unsafe or illegal practices and criticizing its gameplay as having poor English grammar and questionable teaching ability, IGN rated the game 2.0/10, saying: "we can't recommend this piece of garbage to anyone."[2]
