Looking for a quick arcade game? TXT runs in the browser and needs no download. It leans on math, music & rhythm and retro & arcade, so expect something that rewards a bit of practice. Everything runs client-side, so it starts fast even on a modest connection.
About TXT
This game is a real test of your attractiveness and speed. You need to click on the numbers appearing on the screen as soon as possible. The faster you do it, the higher your record. The whole game is made in the style of old TVs. There is eternal interference on the screen, and the rest of the menu is stylized under the old interfaces. All this is complemented by pleasant retro sounds and music.
How to play TXT
There is very little to learn before your first run. Load the game above and it fills the player in landscape. On desktop use the fullscreen button for the largest possible view; on a phone, turn the device sideways. If a round goes badly, restart — attempts are cheap and it is usually the fastest way to improve.
