About the game

A 10-year-old's imagination. A two-person Typist Club.

Maya is 10. She dreamed up the villages, the monsters, the letterstaff, the whole candy-colored road. Her dad wanted her to become a good typist. They both wanted that world to be a place you could actually play.

So they formed a Typist Club. Two members. They made shirts with markers and met every day of her summer break, building Maya's Typing Adventure together. You create a hero on Magma Typo Rex's Casting Show, then type your way from Home Village to Typemaster Omega, a crow who often dropped things that clunked on our roof.

No accounts, progress saved on your device. A family game about growing into a typist inside a kid's world. Maya's Typing Adventure is free on Itch.io. Welcome to the Typist Club.

Type to attack

Words pop up in battle. Type them to damage cute monsters, like the Typo Slime and friends.

Watch your stats

Hearts, words left, score, accuracy, and WPM stay on screen so you can see yourself get better.

A winding map, locked landmarks, and a candy-colored road from the forest to Typemaster Omega.
