Glyphfall
Type a ship's word to lock and blast it before it breaches your hull — and chain one hand for the multiplier.
How to play
Ships descend through a starfield, each carrying a word. Type a word to lock onto its ship and finish it to blast the ship out of the sky. Cyan ships use left-hand-only words and magenta ships use right-hand-only words; chaining kills with the same hand builds your score multiplier. Let ships reach the bottom and they breach your hull.
- Start typing — letters lock onto the nearest matching ship
- Finish a word to destroy the ship
- Chain same-hand kills (cyan = left, magenta = right) to grow the multiplier
- A wrong key drops your lock and breaks the chain
Controls
- Desktop: type letters to lock and fire; no mouse needed
- Phone & tablet: a physical keyboard is recommended for this typing shooter
Tips & strategy
- Prioritise the lowest ships, but keep an eye on the colour so you don't break a strong chain
- Sticking to one hand's words when you can keeps the multiplier climbing
- Daily seeds the same wave order; Practice generates a fresh assault
