March 2025
I've loved typing since I learned young in school with Mavis Beacon. This game is an absolute gem and I've enjoyed every minute of it. Beautiful game and fun play style.

A relatively simple but stylish dream adventure where one of the skills you develop is your ACTUAL typing speed. I regularly return to it because the words you are supposed to type are vaguely related to the function they perform (as in things you are supposed to burn prompt fire-related words, enemies are negative words, ...) and so when you put the word bank in a different language the game turns into association flashcards.

I played this with a new ortho keyboard and decided to learn the Workman layout with it. Now I know what old people feel like when you ask them to type something. Gameplay-wise, it's very poorly optimized, you need much better hardware than the mentioned minimal requirements. Except for that, it's an indie masterpiece.

Such a unique and exciting approach to gameplay. I had so much fun playing and finished the game in one sitting. I also found myself in awe at the artstyle, music, level design, and so on. Finishing fights felt rewarding and worthwhile, and the story narration felt so true to the "storybook" aesthetic. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed, and found myself eager to overcome the word battles rather than feel daunted and frustrated. Challenging, but within reason. Absolutely loved!

A unique and fun game, story is pretty simple - but the typing 'mechanics' etc. is quite good. 9/10
