  abstract = {Language learning resources are constantly evolving along side technology.
	One of such resources is REAP.PT, a system which aims to raise users
	prociency in the Portuguese language in an inter active manner.
	Its current features include text-based exercises. This paper describes
	the evolution of REAP.PT aiming on locative prepositions used to
	describe the spatial position between objects. In this new REAP.PT,
	exercises take place in a 3D environment, and are complemented with
	gaming aspects to make them more appealing to students.
	
	The game scenario is an oce, where each division contains dierent
	exercises. Completing exercises awards the student with points that
	unlock harder divisions. This provides the student with a challenge
	and a sense of progression. We believe that with these gaming aspects,
	students will have increased motivation to complete exercises.},
