Backspace Bouken is a funny typing game. One of the few games to make me laugh.
Fucking love this game. Baldur's Gate meets Typing of The Dead, with mechanics, worldbuilding and lore that all support the central gimmick, very fun moment to moment, and just short enough that it doesn't overstay its welcome. If you like typing games, you should be playing this yesterday.
Typing game! It's fun! It's fun to type! There's a lot of nerd shit and puns! The only penalty for typing something wrong is time so everything is very easily once you realize you do not need to care, and also you can't see the whole floor map at once. idk it's nice. It's a nice game that briefly goes "but when u think about it, u could have chosen not to fight........" at the end and I think that's very funny

It's a neat typing game. I don't like that I have to backtrack to find something every floor when you dont get a full map to look at. The final boss removing your ability to backspace is a little funky to me since there isn't a good enough penalty for mistyping so it just encourages you to spam nonsense instead of typing the words.
