How to play
- Enemies push toward your base with word labels.
- Type correct letters to kill targets and build combo score.
- Every 8 kills, pause and pick one upgrade.
- Base HP reaching zero ends the run.
What makes this typing game different
Upgrade choices
Every few kills, the run pauses for a perk choice. That gives the mode more long-run planning than a pure typing reflex test.
Base defense
Enemies drain base HP when they slip through, so target priority and clean spelling both affect survival.
Combo pressure
Clean input feeds score momentum. Mistakes are still recoverable, but careless strings make upgrade timing harder.
Tips for better scores
- Pick upgrades that match the current problem: defense when HP is low, damage when lanes are crowded.
- Clear the nearest enemy first unless a shorter word can be finished immediately.
- After an upgrade pick, scan the board before typing so the first target is deliberate.
FAQ
When do upgrades appear?

How do I lose?
Letting enemies through chips away base health until the run is over.
Does combo scoring exist?
Yes — streaks matter for leaderboard-style personal bests stored locally.
Is this mode keyboard-only?
Designed around physical keys; touch play is best-effort while the prototype evolves.
