Typer Shark Story

When you play this free typing game, you become a deep-sea diver. Until you reach the ocean floor, you must blast away hungry sharks and piranhas by typing the words, letters, or symbols that appear on each animal. You receive points for blasting them, as well as bonuses for accuracy. When you reach the shipwreck on the ocean floor, you receive bonus words for extra points.

If you fail to blast the sharks and piranhas before they reach you, they eat you. Of course, being a video game, Typer Shark allows you more than one life. You may also earn extra lives by accumulating points. The game ends when you lose all your lives.

As you advance through the levels of Typer Shark, the animals become more ferocious. Red sharks require two words to kill. "Ghost" piranhas and sharks hide their words or letters until they swim close to you. Pollution causes "mutant" sharks, which may switch letters or symbols as you type.

Typer Shark Skill Levels

Typer Shark offers multiple skills levels. Based on the level you select, the sharks will swim faster or slower. You may choose from the following skill levels: easy, normal, hard, expert. They define these categories as 20, 30, 50, and 70 words per minute, respectively. If you're up to an even bigger challenge, you may choose the extreme level, with an undefined words-per-minute count.

Typer Shark runs smoothly, offers adjustable skill levels, and allows you to practice your typing skills without boring drills. What more could you ask for in a free typing game? A secret weapon? Typer Shark has one. Don't forget to use the shark zapper when you're in a pinch.
