About Quote Typer
A typing game about meeting words worth keeping.
What you type are sayings left behind by writers East and West. Words that make you think, words that quietly console you, words that make the road ahead look a little brighter — they appear on still paper, one at a time.
Nothing rushes you. You go at your own pace, one saying at a time. A calm score. A screen lit by a single light. A small sound returned to your fingers with every key. When you finish a saying, a single mark is set down, and the next one begins.
The more you type, the more of it stays with you. That feeling is what this was made for.
