How to play Type Or Die

Tips and tricks
- Learn the first thirty seconds perfectly. The opening is the same every time, so it should never be where you lose.
- Take a short break after three or four failed runs. Arcade games punish tired eyes more than any other genre.
- Find the rhythm. Most arcade games have an underlying beat — taps, jumps or moves that fall on a regular interval — and once you feel it, your accuracy jumps.
- Combo systems reward patience: keep the chain alive with safe moves rather than reaching for risky bonuses.
- Because this is a Educational game, say the answer out loud before you click; it makes the learning stick.
