What is Monster Typing?
A typing battle game where every word you type makes your monster attack. Fight other players online; while nobody else is around, you practice against the CPU until someone drops in.
How to play
- Type the hiragana shown on screen in romaji to attack.
- When the gauge is full, press Space for a special move.
- Use mana crystals to summon companion monsters and raise them.
- There are also story and training modes.
Controls
On PC, type romaji on your keyboard. On phones, battles work with Japanese flick input.
The game's screens and words are in Japanese, which makes it good typing practice for Japanese learners. On PC, turn your Japanese IME off before you play.
