Typoman finally spellchecks his way onto the Xbox One, PS4
Typoman is a puzzle platformer that originally released for the Wii U in 2015. The next year, the game made the jump over to Steam as Typoman: Revised. And now the revised version will soon release on the Xbox One, followed by a PlayStation 4 version in the near future.Typoman stars the titular Typoman, a character who is an anthropomorphized word, specifically "HERO." Players can change the game world in any number of ingenious and creative ways by rearranging or altering various words. For example, players can add the letter "D" to a "RAIN" cloud and "DRAIN" a nearby lake, rearrange the word "NOPE" to "OPEN" a closed gate, and remove the letter "E" from the word "HEAT" to gain a fancy "HAT."
