Gaming with Spanish Friends

Arrange an online match, talk during the game and use the slang Spanish gamers really say.

In Spain people "juegan a la Play", "echan una partida" and get "viciados" to a new game. Gaming with friends online over voice chat is a great way to practise fast, informal Spanish. The cards follow a learner in Barcelona organising a game night, playing online with a friend and being told to switch off at dinner time.
