The game is similar in spirit to
My Talking Tom
and
My Talking Angela
. However, instead of being a grinning beast with a pair of
red-rimmed eyes
, the main character in Talking Juan is rather less cute than in those titles.
One pet in four rooms
Talking Juan is a strange, bear-like creature who lives in a house with four rooms that can be navigated using arrow buttons:
living room, bedroom, kitchen and bathroom
. Each room has its own interactive elements. You can sponge and wash Juan in the bathroom, and the bedroom lets you put him to sleep, and so forth.
Two mini-games
The most important room in the game is the living room, as this contains a games console where you can play
two mini-games
. "El Yate" is a 3D game where you navigate a boat between rocks, whereas "Flappy Juan" involves maneuvering a flying Juan through obstacles. By playing the games, you'll earn
virtual money
to spend on Juan.
Keep Juan happy and healthy
Juan has four
stats counters
that gradually empty as you play, and you will need to be regularly boosted: Happiness, Hunger, Cleanliness and Sleepiness. To keep him happy, play games, then use the money from games to give him food. Keep him clean in the bathroom, and when he's tired out, take him to bed.
Spanish only
Talking Juan is entirely in Spanish, but as there is little in the way of on-screen text, this should not pose too much problem for users who don't speak the language. That said, most players will find the gameplay limited and repetitive.
