Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })New Dynamic English is a course, which is part of DynEd's Courseware (a portmanteau of "course" and "software"). Being more like a textbook, it is not technically included as a game. However, being an interactive course, it could almost be classified as an Edutainment Game. New Dynamic English is made in the United States, however only a few Americans actually recognize this program because it is targeted towards foreigners so that they could study English. New Dynamic English is one of DynEd's courses with a lot of stories (others include First English, Functioning in Business and The Lost Secret). It stars two main characters, Max and Kathy, though they only appear from Module 1 until 5, whereas New Dynamic English has 8 modules.Like all DynEd courses, New Dynamic English has a scoring system based on recording, frequency of usage, and performing exercises. Users determine their starting module by taking the Placement Test, and will start based on the score. Later they can go to a higher module only after doing well on the Mastery Tests. Taking a Mastery Test itself requires going through presentations and exercises several times.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })

Ambiguously Brown: Max◊ has dark skin, blond hair, thick lips (which is debatable because this was part of the art style), and possibly black roots, making it rather hard to pin down whether he's white with a tan, black, or mixed. This was averted in the 2013 update. Bob Crane is also brown, and even preserved in the 2013 version. His name not being foreign makes it even more confusing. Chris Scott◊ had wavy hair and dark skin. She has a sister who has lighter skin with straight, auburn hair, making her race unknown. Like Max, this was averted in the 2013 update.

Benevolent Alien Invasion: In Module 1 Unit 1, Max and Kathy encounter an alien. The alien, named Zork, said that he's from another world and also speaks English. It is not known whether his intentions are good or bad, but the lack of any negative activity suggests he is leaning towards the good side.
