During our playtest we did not see any issues with our gaming family using the controller or even the controller setup. Also, when selecting the letters to form words, the game does a great job of making it easy to get the letters you need to go from one puzzle challenge to the next. As with any type of platformer, you need the controls to be very responsive, and they are. The setup makes it easy for people to pick up and play the game even those who are not platformer fans are able to play the game very easily. With the left thumb stick to move and a jump, pick up, toss, and push button, the game is very responsive to the controller setup. ControlsĬontrols are very friendly for the game.

In our playtest, our special needs gamers loved how the game was “uniformed” and easily able to be seen as a work of art. The antagonist could be a little bit scary for some younger gamers, but this is barely even a minor issue – it’s a negative word trying to attack a positive word – no real violence of any kind. Parents, there is nothing offensive visually or even in the text that would be questionable for your gaming family to play. The game does not support a colorblind mode, but as the nature of the game’s visuals are to be easily seen on the screen, it does not need it. From how beautifully the characters are created from words, to the backgrounds, to even minor details in the puzzles, everything is drawn out so cleverly.
The visuals in Typoman: Revised are a wonderful world created in darker tones and high-contrast colors that bring the game to life. As always, parents, please use caution for extended gameplay session and headset usage.

General GameplayĪ platform game at heart, Typoman: Revised is a hybrid of a platformer and a word puzzle game. It is a blend of platforming, creative thinking and word puzzle solving to proceed in the game. The game launched for Wii U in 2015.Typoman: Revised is a word puzzle-meets-platform game in which your character, whose body is made of the letters that spell out “HERO”, has to go through an artistic platform world and stop an “EVIL” (an opponent made of the letters that spell out “EVIL”) from spreading. The game was originally a Wii U exclusive, and Nintendo showcased the game at the program during E3 2015. Brainseed Factory founder Bilal Chbib explains that the original plan was to "have objects and monsters shaped out of letters, and nothing else." As development continued the team eventually decided to implement puzzle based gameplay using letters and words. The idea of Typoman was born out of a desire to experiment with typography and gameplay. Situations become increasingly complicated as the game progresses, requiring the player to come up with puns to manipulate items. For example, players can spell "up" to activate an elevator, or "open" to open a door. Typoman features a number of environmental puzzles that are solved by crafting words that are relevant to the situation. The game follows a hero named HERO who crafts words to alter the environment around him. Typoman is an independent video game developed by Brainseed Factory for Nintendo Switch, Wii U, Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC.
