To give an example of what I’m thinking of…Kingdom of Loathing, Lioden, Flight Rising.
What are some others? I’m sure there’s entire genres of browser-based games I’ve missed.
Its like a csgo game but with low poly esthetics. It runs pretty well.
I’ll go for something more simple, but that you still can spend hours on.
Tetris. Jstris if you want a minimalistic version and Tetr.io if you want something more polished.
I also like to play minesweeper, minesweeper.online is the best one I’ve found. I especially like the no-guessing mode which makes the game a lot less frustrating.
In this vein, sudokuslam.com is cool too
It’s a predecessor of Sunless Sea, Sunless Skies and Mask of the Rose.
Lots of grinding in the later game, but still highly recommended because of the fantastic text quality. I played it for almost a year.
Not a game but still a good time killer learning to type faster and faster https://www.keybr.com/
Your all time top speed beats 99.42% of all other people.
Your all time average speed beats 95.57% of all other people.
Do not many people use this website, or is 105 wpm top speed and 87 wpm average speed actually that crazy? I just learned to type like this in high school.
As far as I understand it, most folks growing up these days do everything on their smart phones or tablets. Like, teachers sometimes have literally gotten entire essays written on a phone. (I would go crazy trying to do that…but people make do with the tech they’re given when young, and get good at it.)
So, for some segment of the population–yeah, touch-typing on a physical keyboard is no longer a thing. And even when I was young, people getting truly good at it 80+ wpm was pretty rare. You had to be into writing, either as a hobby, or as an unavoidable part of your job.
That’s wild! I’m in my mid 30s and assumed that kids were only learning touch typing more than I had in school (it was an optional class). Conversely, I go insane trying to type something of any real length on a phone/tablet screen and I’m sure a lot of them could screen type way faster than me.
