Why the enemy behavior is so much different ingame as in the preshow video? As first, the game itselve is pretty cool. Typing random set words to fight and living the adventure is such an good idea. Now to the bad parts. Choosing between all those characters from start is really confusing. Is there any difference at all? Doesnt feel like it. Tutorial was okayish... More or less confusing and not showing me the string of gameplay. Found out how to do stuff by trying random words that could work. As you finish the Tutorial with like 5-8 letter words. The real game starts... and those words are really not typable if like 5 enemies dashing towards you and instantly killing you. All i can do is directly random teleport and kill the first one. There is just not enough time to get behin some map objective, since the enemies dashing right through it and hitting you all at once. Game itselfe is a good idea but the "balancing" should be done as next, otherwise noone will stay to play this game more than 20 minutes. Looking forward for new updates and fixes.

This game feels more like a gamejam game than a fully fledged product that should be on Steam: 1I am not that slow of a typer, but anything beyond a 30 difficulty seems borderline unplayable. 2)As other negative reviews also pointed out: The tutorial is lackluster and I had to find out myself how things work. I do not know what half the UI means in the game itself. 3)There is no point in choosing the characters. They all feel the same to me. ---------------- If this game cost me money, I would've returned and refunded.

lowkey a banger, though whenever an enemy with the name 'menu' pops up it takes me to the actual menu lol, otherwise it's a good game!!!

The concept is interesting, but the gameplay itself is at best confusing, at worst completely unplayable. The desert map is unplayable at the moment because as soon as you spawn you get stormed by multiple enemies who instantly kill you - there is physically no way to type quickly enough to pass them. I think my biggest issue is that the game tries to include elements you would find in a turn-based rpg, but once you get into it it's the same format as pretty much every other typing game I've encountered (but with additional features that may or may not actually do anything (hard to tell)). I do really like this concept, and I understand that it's still currently in development, but as it stands I really can't recommend this to any of my fellow typists.

Nice that it's free but the starting level is too difficult and there is no way to adjust it so I uninstalled after 10 minutes of frustration.

Games like Undertale that remember what you did

Undertale's own listing calls it the RPG where you don't have to destroy anyone. Games like Undertale that keep that idea: permanent choices, fights you can talk past, worlds that notice.

Games like Slay the Spire that keep the branching climb

Most games like Slay the Spire copy the cards and lose the map. These keep the risky-or-safe choice, from a three-floor train to a deck made of poker hands.

Games like Dying Light, where nightfall changes the rules

Games like Dying Light are easy to find if you only want parkour or only want zombies. These eight keep the part that matters: a city that becomes a different place after dark.

Games like Portal 2, where one idea carries the whole game

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
