Backspace Bouken

Backspace Bouken is a Japanese-inspired, old-school dungeon crawler with a fast-paced typing battle system and a ridiculous story. You climb a tower, fighting monsters by typing their dialogue as you progress. Fast, accurate typing earns rewards.

Explore the tower

You explore numerous floors in a classic first-person dungeon-crawling style. Solve puzzles and collect passwords and information from enemies to make progress, and save NPCs from the tower as you go.

Typing battles

The typing-based combat system tells the story as you play. You face a wide variety of enemies and bosses, each with distinctive behaviors and twists. Encounters and filling out your map both reward you.
