I have played Epistory - Typing Chronicles quite a bit and even seen the credits rolled. So I shall share my experience playing this game and perhaps a tip or two for those interested.

I love this game. I never expected to fall in love with a second game but I did.

VISUALS
The visuals were beautiful. I loved the origami idea, and as you unlocked each new region they unfold like an origami present which was very lovely to watch. If you look closer, as I did towards the end, each tile that makes up the land is actually a stack of paper, which is a really neat idea reminding me on how an author's words alone create all the fantastical landscapes I see in my head as I read.

STORY
I also loved playing as the muse riding on her three-tailed fox. At first as the words appear on the land narrating a story, I thought that the unfolding story was about the muse on the fox, but as I kept progressing through the different landcsapes and unlocked more of The Bridge, I realised that the unfolding story was also about this unnamed girl. As I collect the fragments of each landscape and unlocked more regions, I learned more of her. It is never explicitly said what exactly happened to her in the end, but I believe that the fragments and the words on the land do give enough information that I can fill in the rest and construct my own interpretation of her story. This is the best part of Epistory -Typing Chronicles, discovering the story as you go along and feeling invested in it throughout the game.

KEYBOARD SKILLS
Now it may be a typing game. In fact you can operate everything using the keyboard alone. But there is also the element of puzzles which features quite a lot in this game, as well as a few cleverly-hidden spots. I won't spoil it for you, but if you do want to progress, a decent mastery of your keyboard will go a long way, not just for navigation and running away when you need to and killing insects by typing. That's another highlight. Ah, how I wish I could kill insects with my now-improved typing skills in real life :P

ICE NAVIGATION
In terms of navigation, I have previously read how some users struggled with navigating on ice. I did too at first, but once I figured it out I found ice to be very helpful at certain points in the game. Two things I learned
1) For me, I like to see my navigation keys of WASD like a compass. Going up is the W key, then it is my North, and so on for the other keys. Now in a compass there are also four more directions of northeast, northwest, southeast and southwest, which are combinations of the north south east west directions. I just treat my keyboard the same, and the eight directions afford more than enough precision to navigate smoothly across the land.
2)Also, the law of inertia applies on ice. A moving object continues to move unless being stopped by a wall or by a piece of land. Always remember this when on ice and you should be able to go wherever you need to go.

ORDER YOUR UPGRADE
Another thing I would like to point out is that despite reaching the end of the story, i.e. the credits, I did not unfold the story in its intended order which was a bummer for me. After unlocking the first few landscapes in the right order, I unlocked the rest in a haphazard order and completely missed one! I think that this was because that at certain parts of the game I had enough points to unlock more than one region at a time so I cluelessly went wherever I did. My advice would be to use your upgrade points on the Instinct upgrade as soon as you can, lest you go down the wrong path like me. I discovered too late that the Instinct upgrade is actually VERY USEFUL as it leads you to the next point in your journey. Besides that, I would also highly recommend the Velocity upgrade, but of course it will depend on your gameplay to choose which upgrade you need more urgently than the others.

EXPLORATION IS KEY
Also, before I forget, exploration is a key part of Epistory - Typing Chronicles. You will be rewarded if you have a penchant for exploring every nook and corner like me. I have stumbled upon chests placed off the main path as well as solutions to some puzzles by insisting on exploring my surroundings. I would not have found many of the chests and solved many puzzles in the relatively short time that I did if I did not constantly stray off the main path to explore the land, because boy oh boy there are so many goodies hidden off the main path.

So yes, in short, Thank You to Fishing Cactus and Co. for the epic Epistory - Typing Chronicles <3
Now please tell me how to find the prickly fisherman, I want that achievement but haven't figured it out yet hahaha :D
