It's awesome when you guys bring attention to things I'm down with but wouldn't have heard of otherwise. My boyfriend and I love tense, competitive games where we can play in short bursts and yell at each other (most recently being Starwhal). Can't wait to get $3 worth of entertainment out of this.

That was way more entertaining to watch than it should have been, and the game does look very fun. It is a pity that the online seems to have no one there if Brad is correct. Hopefully that will change.

For UPF I say add a house rule that when you type a word you have to say it, and then another person on your "team" has to define it. Points given for correctness but also for creativity.

Oh and Dan with capitalism on guess and Brad knowing immediately it was him - man after my own heart Dan keep up the fight! Death to postmodernism! ;)

This looks like official spelling competition software.

I would totally watch high level play. Those beeps get intense.

I love the idea of a competitive typing game, but I'm not exactly enamored by what I see here.

Of course one of Brad's first words was "quotidian."

Also, love that he lost because he was trying to use "high value words;" you know, like listing four letter body parts for the last 15 seconds.

The simplicity of the interface works for this game. I don't think it really needs to be any flashier. Did anyone else here learn how to type using MasterType?

I loved in the beginning that Dan really needed it to be made know that he didn't have a desk.

There was a lot of grunting in this. Uncomfortable grunting. But I bought the game anyway.

@slab64 speak for yourself. I came to this quicklook to see if the game runs 60 fps at 1080p. :p

Not a comfy quick look to have running on the other screen while playing Dark Souls. I was ready to snap at anything by the end. Game itself looks alright for the price though. Probably would have to play it muted

Whenever I feel like playing a typing game I pretty much always go for a few rounds of ZType. Basically an arcade space shooter with typing as your weapon. It has a great flow to it, great relaxing background music. You can also load in whatever text or website you want the game to pull the words from. It's great, I highly recommend it.
