    Typoman Revised
    A Clever Adventure
    Typo Man Revised is an extended and slightly altered version of the original Typoman It isn’t much longer though only taking around 3 hours to complete This is a story of good vs evil, A 2d platformer where you play as hero trying to get through to the end of each hour long chapter This is no ordinary 2d platformer though.. This is a bit of a 2d    Typoman Revised

    Typo Man Revised is an extended and slightly altered version of the original Typoman
    It isn’t much longer though only taking around 3 hours to complete
    This is a story of good vs evil,
    A 2d platformer where you play as hero trying to get through to the end of each hour long chapter
    This is no ordinary 2d platformer though..
    This is a bit of a 2d platformer meets scrabble game…
    It will definitely test your wits as your trying to come up with words you can use with the letters around you to activate switches reach higher places and activate a reaction in the games environment..
    Thankfully none of the solutions are too hard…
    Though some solutions will seem out of place for example a hanging letter in one chapter I needed to use cut to make it drop... while the game spent the other parts of the game teaching me to swing on these letters…
    So the game does contradict itself at times…
    but these moments are few and far between…
    You never feel frustrated even when youre stumped…
    its genuinely satisfying solving these word puzzles to continue through these charming and interactive worlds…
    Bringing words to life...
    The game eventually even adds a lie creature…
    A lie will turn words into their opposites,
    giving you more letters to work with and more opportunity for more challenging puzzles...
    and that’s exactly what you get before the final boss…
    An insane difficulty spike near the end that will have you switching words, making new words, and then switching them, to make even more new words.. And so on…
    But like every other challenge the game throws at you... it felt good once that section was finally passed… and I never got angry at the game.. Only at myself...
    Typoman offers an enjoyably 3 hour brain teaser worth the run through.
    I give Typoman Revised
    a 7.5/10    … Expand

    Remarkable platformer with original gameplay, elaborated puzzles and rough poetics. The visual aspect of the game is delightful, but the game time is short and there are troubles with user-unfriendly controls. [Issue#272]

    Typoman: Revised is a game where you command the wind and rain by word. Only small issues spoil this mixture of unique gameplay and atmosphere, fortunately. You will remember this arcade where you write more than you fight for a long time.

    Definitely a step up from the original iteration. It has more of its own style, and the gameplay mechanics rarely feel clunky. Though it hints at a meaningful narrative, ultimately it isn’t very substantial.
