Type words to attack. Miss, and the monster strikes back. TypeRealm is a typing RPG where speed and accuracy are your greatest weapons. Every word you type becomes an attack. Every mistake costs HP. Defeat monsters, collect powerful gear, level up your hero, and improve your typing skills along the way. No auto battles. No skip buttons. Just you and the keyboard. --------------------------------------------------- BATTLE THROUGH THE REALM --------------------------------------------------- Fight through 45 handcrafted stages across 5 unique regions, from the Forest of Beginnings to the Volcanic Depths. Every region ends with a challenging boss that pushes your typing speed to the limit. Complete the campaign to unlock the Endless Tower, an infinite challenge where every floor brings tougher enemies and greater rewards. A Rare Monster also appears every day. Defeat it for bonus loot and extra rewards. --------------------------------------------------- CHOOSE YOUR CLASS --------------------------------------------------- Pick from six unique classes, each rewarding a different typing style. • Warrior, master long words. Bonus damage on words with 8 or more letters. • Archer, built for speed. Deal massive damage when you type faster than your enemy. • Mage, reward perfect accuracy. Every flawless word unleashes extra damage. • Rogue, chain together combos with no limit to your streak bonus. • Cleric, recover from mistakes by healing with every correct word. • Scribe, ignore typing penalties. Mistakes slow you down instead of stopping your attacks. Not sure which class fits you? Answer three quick questions and the game will recommend one. Level up to unlock Tier 2 and Tier 3 ascensions, each adding powerful new passive abilities that change how you play. --------------------------------------------------- SKILL COMES FIRST --------------------------------------------------- TypeRealm is built around one simple rule. Better typing always beats better gear. A fast, accurate player will consistently outperform someone relying on equipment alone. There are no pay-to-win mechanics and no shortcuts around improving your typing. Collect equipment across six gear slots with five rarity tiers. Better gear makes you stronger, but it enhances skill instead of replacing it. --------------------------------------------------- A WORLD SHAPED BY WORDS --------------------------------------------------- Long before kingdoms existed, there was the Incarnum, a living book that held every True Word ever written. Words shaped reality itself. You are a Scribe, one of the few warriors capable of wielding that ancient power. --------------------------------------------------- DESIGNED FOR MOBILE --------------------------------------------------- • No account required • Play completely offline • Quick battles that fit into 2 to 5 minute sessions • Includes Common English and Programmer word packs at no extra cost --------------------------------------------------- If you want an RPG that is both fun to play and helps you build a real-world skill, choose your class and start typing.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: TypingBuffet at none against TypeRealm's 1. TypingBuffet also leads on ads (none vs shown). TypeRealm's advantage is update cadence (every 3 months vs every 13 months). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
