87 - Type Dreams

This week, we check out a new game by Richard Hofmeier (designer of Cart Life): Type Dreams, a game about typing as quickly as you can. As it turns out, typing fast can be extremely hard (Blake calls it “the Dark Souls of typing games”). The game prompts a discussion about the history of print, game controllers, Warren G. Harding’s naughty letters, world record type speeds, and the reasons for Steampunk’s appeal.
