How fast can you type? Type Jumper is a runner you play with your keyboard. Your character sprints down the track and every obstacle carries a word. Type it before you arrive and they jump, slide, dash or unlock their way through. Miss it and you crash. ONE TRACK, THREE WAYS TO RUN IT - 24 story levels across four worlds, plus five hidden bonus levels you only reach with a perfect run - Marathon: three lives, no finish line - Blitz: 60 seconds, and every crash costs you time - Play with the built-in on-screen keyboard or a hardware one NINE KINDS OF WORD PUZZLE Plain words to warm up, then scrambles, missing letters, reversed words, a planted typo to spot, category clues, riddles, words that vanish while you are still reading them, and double words. THIRTEEN THINGS IN YOUR WAY Hurdles, gaps, spike strips, barriers, ramps, tunnels, springboards, energy walls, locked gates, double gaps, crushers, swinging logs and rolling boulders. One new idea arrives every level or two, so you are always learning something. TEN RUNNERS, TEN PERKS Unlock Bolt, Nyx, Tor, Coral, Pixel, Ember, Frost, Sage and Nova. Each one is built differently and plays differently: an extra heart, a longer runway, double or triple coins, faster combos, floatier jumps, or a typo that no longer breaks your streak. KNOW EXACTLY HOW FAST YOU ARE Every word is timed from your first keystroke to your last. After each run you get your words per minute, your accuracy, your average per word and per letter, and a breakdown of every single word you typed. Game Center leaderboards rank both your score and your raw typing speed.
