Tyfortress: Tactical Typing

Tyfortress: Tactical Typing

This is an excellent typing game. The difficulty scale ranges from sheer beginner skill level, to very difficult… I am fairly good at typing with an average wpm of about 90 (highest of about 120 or so), and the harder levels gave me quite a challenge. I have not yet earned every achievement, although I do intend to. Can’t beat the price too. Worth the money!

Very good for the price. The vocabulary and sentence structure is a little weird, but I really like the design and game play of it. Engaging and fun.

“Type Defense brings a brand new approach to all typing games. You have to stop desert bandits by firing with your ballista. Everyone knows the best way of using a ballista is typing! And it supports multiple languages!”

Well, no, but still it’s a great game!

This is definitely no brand new approach - I’ve played at least a dozen games in which you had to type words that randomly come on-screen in order to defeat enemies, but who cares? It’s awesome!

And yea - the multiple language support is great, unfortunately I can’t type in my native tongue.. but you can choose between entire vocabularies of English, German, Spanish, Portuguese and Turkish. And Russian too.

As someone that is learning to type (Dvorak) this game gets too hard too fast, would not recommend this game until you can type at 20+ wpm, I’m on about 12 wpm at the time of writing and the game lasts for about 2 mins before I die and have to start again, it gets so fast that my typing just gets frantic and I no longer am practicing typing as much as I am key mashing and not learning anything. Some adaptive difficulty based on our typing speed/accuracy/performance, or manually set difficulty, would sort this out.
