I found this game to be a great starting place for my friends who have difficulty sustaining and thinking of things to say in conversation. It gives multiple choice answers to help students construct conversation by asking questions and making comments. You have your student think of something to initiate a conversation or if they aren't ready for that they can sustain a conversation with a simulated conversation partner.
Another interesting feature is the ability to play back the conversation. My students found it extremely rewarding to hear their conversation. You can also work on prosody and intonation in their sentences.
This app is 19.99 and definitely worth it for students with pragmatic language difficulties!
There is also a cheaper version for 7.99.
My students loved it!
