About This Game

TL;DR is a typing game where every page comes from a real book. Pick a classic, type it word after word, and turn every page into gold, upgrades and ever-bigger numbers.

REAL BOOKS, WORD FOR WORD
Every line you type comes straight from a great novel. Sentence after sentence, the story moves forward with you, from the first page to the last.

EVERY KEYSTROKE ADDS UP
Each word pays out in gold. Spend it, earn more, spend again. The faster and cleaner you type, the faster the numbers climb.

WATCH IT SNOWBALL
It starts with just you and your keyboard. Each upgrade builds on the last, until whole pages go by faster than you could ever type them alone.

A LIBRARY TO GET THROUGH
15+ classics, from The Iliad to Dracula. Finish one, add it to your shelf, and choose the next.

KEY FEATURES

  • 15+ classic novels to type from first page to last

  • An incremental progression that keeps snowballing

  • Upgrades that keep changing the way you play

  • No timers: progress only moves when you type

TL;DR is made by a solo developer. If you play the demo, I’d love to hear what you think on the community hub. Every comment gets read.
