Letters also feature heavily in the scenery and are a constant presence in the puzzles. It’s a nice idea which gives the whole game a consistent and interesting theme. The levels are designed with words in mind as well, so you will stand on PLATFORMS and go up in ELEVATORS. As you can see this is a very literal game. Typoman himself is a little guy created from the letters H E R O and he faces off against baddies based from the letters F E A R and H A T E. What makes Typoman Revised stand out, for better and for worse, is the way the game uses words. Both games allow you to control a silhouetted character running across a dark landscape and superficially at least look very similar. It’s hard to get away from the comparison to Limbo when looking at Typoman Revised, as both of these games are 2D platformers with a dash of puzzles and some high brow emotional content. This rejigged and revamped release on the PlayStation 4 is a chance for a wider audience to experience the game and see if it’s any good. Typoman was originally a Wii U exclusive released in the later half of 2015, given that no one owned a Wii U this game may have slipped under your radar.
