The face of a card shows the source word translation/explanation, and the reverse
side shows the source word. The player browses the cards and, whenever necessary,
uses a hint.
There are 20 pre-defined card sets in this game. Besides, you can create your own
sets. The goal is to learn all cards in the set. You will be prompted to proceed to the
next set once you have finished the current one.
The game statistics is stored in the device memory so you can resume playing from
where you left off.

Pockets
This is a traditional game targeting in-depth word learning. In this game, the same
cards as those used in the Flash Cards game are divided into 4 groups (4 pockets). At
the beginning of the game all cards are located in the first pocket. You turn the cards
one by one and, if you know the hidden source word, put the card in the second
pocket. Keep browsing until all the cards from the first pocket are moved to the second
pocket.
At the second stage you move the cards to the third pocket and, again, if you know the
hidden source word, put the card in the next pocket.
The goal is to move all cards to the fourth pocket. You will aim most of your efforts at
learning difficult words, while simple words will shortly jump to the fourth pocket.
