This is a game called chants of the sennaar and in order to progress in this game you must start to understand the writing system through context and the puzzles presented. I think this works super well and was much easier than I expected.

I kinda wish games like this were more common for actually learning real languages. Context is the most important thing about language learning and it seems like there are no games where put you in good situations like this for Learning. Like for example, in this game you have to follow someone around 4 times until you find them and they keep repeating the same phrase with some words you know, you can then really easily figure out what the words mean.
