Tonight me and my partner took a look at three different keyboarding games in our TECH portion of our class. We look at three games from the same website free online typing gameshttp://freeonlinetypinggames.com. The first game we reviewed was called Typing Passage game. First we were given basic instruction on how the game operated. Then as we proceeded to the game it began with basic letter combinations, starting with letter that were derived from your home finger position on the QWERTY keyboard. Then as it progresses through the 26 levels the combination changed and turn into words. This game was colorful, but was a standard set up for a keyboarding game.
The second game called Speed Typing. This game was similar to the first, but with some slight variations. You were allowed to make 7 mistakes the whole game. Each round consisted of 14 words. Unlike the other which started out with letter combinations. This one started right from the start with words. So in some ways a little more advance then the first game.
The last game was my favorite. Though I am typing challenged it gives Beacon typing program a run for her money. Same as the second game in that it began with words from the beginning and you could only have 7 mistakes. This however in my humble opinion was much better because it was more involved. The title is Falling Words. So in this game the words fell from top to bottom and you had until they reached the bottom to type them. If you let them touch the bottom the wall moved higher, giving less time to type the word. This occurs until you miss seven words. My partner, who is the better typer, said it stressed her out.
