Typer Shark

Yesterday I was introduced to a new obsession.

A friend showed me the game Typer Shark.

You are a deep sea diver who has sharks coming after him. The sharks have words written on them. You have to type the words error free before the shark reaches you. There are also piranhas that have single letters. The person that showed me the game was able to play at 'expert' which is 70 words per minute. I could barely handle 50 words per minute. Turns out I still look at the keyboard when I type. This is one of those games that is actually learning disguised as fun, but who cares, it is still pretty radical.

For all you desk jockeys or bored home dwellers I present Typer Shark.

Give it a go and then post your high score in the comments.

p.s. Don't bother with the 'free download.' Just wait for it to load then click 'continue here.'
