DEAD SCRIPT

type, or be rewritten

A noir manuscript-horror typing shooter. You are a writer being unwritten — and the only thing that fights back is the next word. Type fast, or be erased.

What it is

Every word is a weapon.

Type to fight

Words attack you

Enemies fall with a word stitched to their chest. Type it to destroy them — miss a letter and they keep coming.

Five bosses

Out-type the editors

Five wardens bend the words against you — redaction, the red pen, forgeries, stitched chains, erasure. Parry their word, strike with yours.

CMYK descent

Five chapters, four inks

A manuscript's descent printed across the four process plates — black, cyan, magenta, yellow — down to the blank page.

The purge

One keystroke, full reset

Fill the meter to unleash an ultimate that clears the screen and refills your health in a single blow.

Built for thumbs

Your keyboard, your way

Play with the native iOS keyboard or the in-game typewriter. Easy, Medium and Hard. Chapters unlock as you clear them.

Noir, all the way down

Hand-inked horror

Charcoal-on-paper art, a misregistered CMYK identity, a cinematic intro, and a soundtrack of dread.

Screens

From the printing press.

The descent

Four plates, then the blank page.

I · KEY

The Morgue

Deleted scenes drag themselves off the slab. Words arrive redacted.

II · CYAN

The Rotogravure

The press stamps enemies out in rows, on the beat.

III · MAGENTA

The Wharf

A rising ink tide drowns every unsaid word.

IV · YELLOW

The Bindery

Words come stitched into chains, sewn shut as they scream.

V · BLANK

The Blank Page

Every ink at once, or none. The Author wants you blank.
