A series of minigames themed mainly around telling an abridged version of the story of Martin Fierro, the subject of an epic poem by Jose Hernandez. The subject matter is of immense importance as the Martin Fierro poem is a major landmark of Argentinian national identity, and for those of us who only knew this poem as a Great Work in Civilization V, it's a wonderful introduction to the material. Gameplay-wise, the minigames center around pattern recognition and being able to maintain rhythm. For those buying this for a younger audience, parental discrestion is advised for the subject matter does dip into the racism prevalent in a majority of guachesque literature, but is mainly kept to a single verse.
