About this game
Type your way to world domination
Can you type? Can you spell? Become the Necrotyper and find out! You will raise your undead army and conquer castles and villages. You will unlock the darkest spells of the Necronomicon. Your keyboard mastery will be pushed to the limit!
Necrotyper is an action/adventure typing game with elements of RPG and strategy. You lead an undead army, which you have no direct control over. Instead, you type different spells to boost it. You have to type fast, or you'll get overrun by enemies. But accuracy matters as well. Your spells will grow stronger if you don't make mistakes, which will give you the necessary edge in the battles. Spells can be upgraded so you can stand a chance against the ever-increasing number of enemies.
Necrotyper key features:
Raise an undead army by casting spells from the Necronomicon. Create new soldiers from the corpses you leave behind.
Progress through levels on the world map. Conquer the small villages first so you can be prepared for the big cities.
Don't let the necromancer die. If your fingers are too slow, you will get overwhelmed and perish.
Unlock & upgrade spells in the Necronomicon. The stronger your spells are, the stronger your undead army will become.
Endless Mode. Two Endless levels are unlocked as you progress far enough into the game. Buy towers, earn perks, and survive for as long as possible while fending off waves of enemies.
Add your own dictionary. Do you want to practice typing in a different language? The game supports custom dictionaries added from a text file.
