Keeb Quest is a full-fledged typing game that turns practice into an adventure. Every keypress counts, whether you're battling bosses, exploring branching stories, or drilling a skill you've been meaning to fix. Build speed, accuracy, and confidence - then see how far you can go. Designed around typing, nothing else. No equipment to grind for, no ability rotations to memorize, no stats to manage besides the ones that actually matter: your speed and your accuracy. Every word on screen is a real word, so what you practice here transfers directly to typing anywhere else. And you're never typing blind: the upcoming word is always visible ahead of your current one, training the same look-ahead rhythm that separates fast typists from slow ones. This game exists to make you type better, and nothing gets in the way of that goal. REQUIREMENTS - iPhone: On-screen keyboard included. - iPad: Physical keyboard required. Campaign Mode Progress through a map, node by node, tier by tier, to a final boss. HP carries across all nodes in a run, so every fight counts. Completing a tier unlocks the next, harder one. Repeat until your typing skill hits its ceiling, then go get better and come back to challenge it again. CLASSIC MODE Battle waves of pixel monsters across endless rounds. Each enemy carries a word - type it to strike. Miss a key and you take damage. Chain words together to build huge combo multipliers and rack up massive scores. Every fifth round, a Boss appears. FIVE EPIC BOSS FIGHTS - Paragraph Boss: Race through a flowing wall of text before the boss strikes. - Falling Words Boss: Shoot down words tumbling from the sky. - Sheet Boss: Clear a grid of words under pressure. - Line Rush Boss: Burn through racing lines of text without missing a beat. - Dialogue Boss: Type through the dialogue bosses before they expire. BOSS SURVIVAL MODE Pick your favorite boss and see how many levels you can survive. Compete against your own best score on every boss type. ADVENTURE MODE Choose Your Own Adventure storytelling meets typing combat. Read flowing passages, make choices that branch the story, and discover multiple endings. Your typing speed and accuracy shape your run. ACADEMY MODE (iPad only) - Available on iPad only. A complete typing curriculum. - Structured chapters from home-row basics to advanced symbols - Designed for hardware keyboards - practice real touch typing FEATURES - 15+ enemy types with unique attack patterns - Real-time WPM tracking, accuracy stats, and grades - Combo system that rewards flawless typing - Achievements to unlock - Multiple hero sprites and cursor styles - On-screen keyboard with assist mode for mobile typing LEARN BY PLAYING Whether you're a 30 WPM beginner or a 120 WPM speed demon, Keeb Quest scales to your pace.

Type faster. Aim cleaner. Win the battle. Battle Type transforms typing practice into a neon arcade competition. Build speed and accuracy in solo runs, race your own best performances in Ghost Challenges, or face real players through Game Center and nearby device battles. CHOOSE YOUR CHALLENGE • Words: type passages across headlines, quotes, books, poetry, speeches, music, arts, and pop culture • Numbers: sharpen numeric speed and control • Glyphs: decode custom symbol sets from easy to expert A FRESH PASSAGE EVERY MATCH Words battles draw live text matched to the era and category you picked, credited on screen and never served twice. Speeches come from real transcripts. Play offline and Battle Type falls back to its own written passages, so a match is always ready. BATTLE YOUR WAY • Train solo with sessions from 30 seconds to 3 minutes • Invite a friend through Game Center, or match with whoever is searching • Start encrypted peer-to-peer battles with nearby players • Rematch the same opponent instantly with RUN IT BACK • Challenge saved ghosts from your strongest runs EVERY CHARACTER COUNTS Every correct keystroke scores one character, and the reach some characters demand pays a separate bonus — punctuation and capitals earn +1, numbers and symbols +2. Characters, then total bonus, then errors decide the match, set your personal best, and choose which run becomes your ghost. SEE EVERY IMPROVEMENT Track live characters, bonus, accuracy, errors and progress during each run. The finish screen leads with the battle you just played, draws both runs on one pace chart, and shows exactly which figure settled it. CHASE THE SIGNAL Unlock more than 40 badges for speed, accuracy, perfect runs, long combos, prompt types, eras, categories, multiplayer wins, and ghost victories. Whether you are building keyboard confidence or chasing triple-digit WPM, Battle Type makes every keypress feel like part of the fight.
