Dragon Type

A letter-recognition game adapted from a typing tutor. Lines of words fill the page in a castle hall, and a hungry dragon walks along each line, eating it letter by letter, but only when you give it the right letter. The box at the bottom shows the next letter of the line among a few others, one for each push of the stick; push toward the right one and the dragon chomps it. A wrong push buzzes, counts an error and locks the stick for a moment. Spaces are eaten on their own. Choose Fast, Medium or Slow: Fast offers four letters to choose from, Medium three and Slow two,. When all eight lines are eaten, your speed in words a minute and your errors make the score, and the high score is kept.

Controls: Push the stick toward the letter the dragon must eat next (left, right, up or down). On the title, up and down choose Fast, Medium, Slow or Credits, and a button starts. Either controller works.
