Title: Trying to find a game
Post by: foleyjo on December 13, 2014, 05:22:25 PM

Hi all

I'm trying to locate a game. Heres what I remembee

-It,was a speed typing challenge.
-On each screen was a phrase such as "A Rolling Stone Gathers No Moss"
-The phrases were random
-You had a time limit in which to type the whole phrase. This would reduce.
- It was either Amiga or C64 I think Amiga PD
-It's none of the ones that appear under typing category on Hall Of Light

Any ideas?

Could it be 'Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing' ?

I bet that's the one. Teaching that looked like a game.

I remember the game he was talking about. It was on a disk with multiple games, one was a cat and mouse game. Around the time of OS1.2

Check this search. I went to aminet and searched: typing

It's not Mavis Beacon.

It might be the typing tutor on that aminet list, i'll check it out thanks
