About the Game

Climb fast or get swallowed by the lava.

This is a skill based typing game where your goal is to reach the top before the rising lava catches you. Letters and words appear on the screen, and every correct input helps you survive longer and climb higher.

The game features over 20000 words, split between Portuguese and English. Players can choose their language in the menu, and all words will appear in the selected language during gameplay.

Your objective is to reach 10000 cm, where a special ending awaits a symbolic reunion at the top of the elevator.

Players can save their progress in 10 score slots, track their time with an in-game timer, and optionally challenge themselves to finish the game in the shortest time possible.

With five difficulty levels, the lava rises at different speeds, making the experience accessible for beginners and intense for advanced typists.
