About the Game

The Mechanicum of Mars have gifted you a blessed new weapon - a keyboard! Brutally decimate hordes of daemonic scum with every keystroke, in this fast-paced rail shooter. None can stand against the might of your WPM! 

RETURN TO GRAIA 

Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun - Words of Vengeance is a creative twist on epic boomer shooter Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun. Instead of mowing down your enemies with elite FPS skills, kill the relentless hordes of enemies that descend upon you by typing out words. 

Set in the world of Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun, play as Malum Caedo on his mission to cleanse Forge World Graia of cultists, traitors and Chaos daemons that threaten to overrun it. 

 

THE EMPEROR GUIDES YOUR HAND

Put your typing skills to the test by typing out randomised words and phrases from Warhammer 40,000 lore to end the lives of your foes. Time to brush up on the spelling of Manufactorum, Incommodus, and Astronomican!  

Obliterate your enemies by quickly typing their death sentences but beware as one typo could spell your own demise.
