Review Details
Price: Free Typing GameStory: A restless girl is trying to go forward and collect the hanging stars in the air. Some snails are patrolling in the path to hamper the journey of this girl. Using the given four keys, you will help the girl to avoid the snails and collect all the hanging stars. To collect the hanging stars, you may need to use the forward key. We did not understand why I should use the forward key to jump when we have a separate key to jump.
Graphics: The game has cheap, blurry and dark graphics.
Environmental view: In the jungle environment, the restless girl, snails and stars do not attract me to the game. The environment could be much better.
Design: Anyone can play this game for 5 minutes and say that it is nothing more than an amateurish game. The designer has no idea how to make a modern looking typing speed test game.
Animations: The snails are always running and this is fine. Why is the girl always animated? Why is she always restless? The way the girl is animated is similar to a girl who is dancing in a DJ party (and not out for a jungle adventure).
Sound effects: Sound effects are cheap also. They do not attract you as they are not pleasing to hear.
Music: How can a game developer use this type of irritation in a game? Is he/she living in the stone age? Did they play any game before developing this type of silly game?
Load time: Okay! The game loads fast. This is very much expected from this keyboard typing test game.
Character details: The character details of this game are no better than the games of stone-age.
Menu: This silly game has a simple menu that begs an Enter button press from.
Challenges: The biggest challenge is controlling the player girl. Oftentimes she jumps and this ends the game. Why? We were totally disgusted to see this. Another thing is - you use the forward button/key to jump even though they have given you a separate key to jump. It is not a fast typing game. It just wastes your time.
Progression (slow/fast): Progression is of course slow. The player girl will oftentimes die and you need to start again.
Limitations: There are no typing practice paragraphs and words. There are only some letters. So, you cannot get any words per minute typing test. If you need a typing test WPM, you need a more advanced game.
Faults (bugs and glitches) / Weaknesses / Disappointments: When the player girl jumps, she often dies and the game ends. Silly game controls are the reasons behind this. It shows poor game programming in the back-end.
Was it an enjoyable experience? (Frustrating/interesting) Not at all. It was a totally frustrating experience.
Is it addictive and/or satisfying? The game is neither addictive nor satisfying. It is just a waste of time.
Replay value: There is no replay value.
Do we recommend this game? No. Do not waste your time.
