ZType
Z-Type is a dynamic typing shoot 'em up game, which uniquely blends the classic gameplay of Space Invaders with typing skills enhancement. You will be engaging in space battles not by traditional shooting, but by typing words. Each enemy spaceship has a word associated with it, and typing that word correctly will shoot and destroy the ship. The game increases in difficulty as you advance, introducing larger ships with longer words and more challenging scenarios.
