Type or Die

Type or Die is a typing duel set in a village that sacrifices those deemed “unintelligent and unworthy” to secure its survival and prosperity. You compete to avoid being chosen for the sacrifice.

The typing duel

Each round, only part of each column’s card is revealed. Before time runs out, you form and type the longest word you can from the visible letters. Everyone types at once; the player with the longest word is spared, while everyone else takes damage equal to that word’s length. Inspiration and typing speed help determine who is considered worthy.

Punishments

Word length determines the punishment tier, which ranges from 5 to 10 letters. Outcomes include healing, a broken keyboard key, doubled punishment and immediate sacrifice. A broken key narrows the words you can form, and a single word can change your fate.

Online multiplayer

You can create a private room with a room code or join a quick match, with up to four players. The game supports Japanese and English, with full romaji-to-kana input handling and separate dictionaries for each language.
