You listen to different languages being spoken and you pick the correct one from a few choices. You get 3 lives and when those run out, you start again.

A fun game, I’ve played it a bunch of times before when someone posted it in on facebook; this time I had another go and got 1150 points. Knowing Slavic languages is a good help in this game, although I did end up misidentifying Serbian as Ukrainian ☹
