Words fall toward your Core. Type a word exactly as it appears and press Enter to destroy it before it breaches. You start with 10 lives — most breaches cost one.
WORD TYPES (unlock as you level up)
- Normal: Type it exactly and press Enter.
- Shielded (Lv 2): Has a shield — type it once to break the shield, type it again to destroy it.
- Reversed (Lv 3): Displayed backwards, but type it in its normal spelling, not what's shown.
- Erratic (Lv 4): Drifts unpredictably as it falls. Type it exactly like any other word.
- Virus (Lv 5): Don't type it! Typing a virus damages your Core. Left alone, it's harmless.
- Coolant (Lv 6): Destroying it temporarily slows every falling word down.
- Overclock (Lv 7): Falls noticeably faster than other words — same rules, just less time to react.
- Corrupted (Lv 8): Safe to type — just skip the one letter highlighted in red, and type every other letter in order.
- Chained (Lv 9): Two words linked together — type both, separated by a space, to clear them (e.g. "BUG DETECTED"). Either one breaching only costs one life, but you can’t clear just one alone.
- Mutating (Lv 10): Its text completely changes every few seconds. Finish typing it before it shifts, or you have to start over on the new word.
- Hydra (Lv 11): Destroying it immediately spawns several 1-letter words of its own, already partway down the screen.
- Phantom (Lv 12): Visible until you type its first letter — then it vanishes. Finish typing it from memory.
- Ciphered (Lv 13): Falls as scrambled symbols and can't be typed yet. It decrypts into the real word once it's about halfway down.
- CaSeD (Lv 14): Spawns in mIxEd case — you must match its capitalization exactly, unlike every other word.
Controls: Just type and press Enter — the box is always focused. Typos don't cost you anything, they just don't match.
