Default Congratulations Spanish Team!

If all these flags tell you something, then you're anticipating some big Spanish headline coming up next. And you're right: what I'm about to tell you has never been done before on Abandonia. A milestone so great that leaves us all in awe - the Spanish translation team has managed to translate all of the original English reviews into their native language.


A lot of time was invested in order to translate 1285 pages, and in this regard I want to say special thanks to Poker_Crow (263 translations) and Darkos (43 translations) for being the ones that actually carried this project until completion. The team was very active in the past as well, and at that time an enormous amount of work was done by Scarface (713 translations). Of course nobody is forgotten, but there is so little space, and so many contributors... I can just say a big "Thank you!" to all of you who participated in this venture, sacrificing your own time and patience.

Wow that is incredible!

I will put on a hat, just to take it off for you.

When are the Japanese, French, German, Swahili and Welsh translations coming?



Sorry, not going to celebrate translating them into Spanish.

I'm still working on learning Welsh, so that someday I can insist that product labels, street signs, and phone messages be in the language of my choice.
