Tijuana,Mexico

Story

A gringo tourist lands in Tijuana with no knowledge of Spanish, only to find himself stranded. The city, vibrant but unforgiving, is a labyrinth of bustling markets and gang-controlled territories. Without the ability to communicate, he can't even complete basic tasks like buying food or asking for directions. This is El Gringo Aprendiz, an RPG where survival is a game of translation. The core mechanic is a language-learning system; dialogue options aren't pre-written lines, but phrases the player must learn, build, and use. In the beginning, simple gestures and a handful of English cognates get him by. A nod might mean "yes," a pointed finger "where." As he's forced to navigate a world where a wrong word can get him hurt, he starts to pick up words from context. Hearing "¡Vete de aquí!" while being chased teaches him to flee. Needing medicine for an injury, he overhears phrases like "dolor" (pain) and "farmacia," adding them to his in-game notebook. Gang encounters aren't just fights; they're tests of his improving Spanish. The player must learn different types of slang to appease rival factions. Progress isn't measured in experience points, but in fluency—the more he learns, the more he unlocks new quests, conversations, and areas of the city. His journey from a bewildered outsider to a savvy survivor is a direct reflection of his mastery of the language.
