War of the Words - Requiem Software Labs

War of the Words

War of the WordsAliens have invaded the city. Armed with a prototype weapon that can break through the aliens' encrypted force fields you are the only hope. Zoom around the city destroying aliens as you find them. Do it quickly before they have a chance to destroy you! Save hostages and use the power-ups the give to put a hurting on those soulless space monsters. Choose typing mode, to fight the aliens by quickly typing words that appear on screen, or choose arcademode for classic shooting action.

Track your progress with a comprehensive results screen. Challenge yourself with multiple skill levels. Import your own word lists via email and destroy spam, shoot your way through study notes or hone your skills on difficult to type words.

 

Typing Mode

When an enemy appears on screen it will have a code box next to it, enter the entire code word to destroy the alien. The timer bar at the bottom of the code box will countdown until it is empty, at which point the alien will attack you dealing varying degrees of damage. If the alien has a hostage and the timer runs out the hostage will be killed, after which the timer bar will begin to countdown again.

Targeting

When you start typing the word in the code box the associated alien will become targeted, indicated by a set of crosshairs which will appear over the enemy. You must complete this code before moving on to another. The only exception to this rule is enemies with single-digit numeric codes. These enemies are falling bombs and the small 'Jumping Spider' enemies. You may type the single digit number at anytime, and when finished will be automatically back on the previously targeted alien.

 

Arcade Mode

Move the crosshairs over enemies and shoot. Head shots earn more points than body shots and body shots earn more than limb shots. In arcade mode it is possible to shoot hostages, although you want to avoid this as it will cost you points, and you will not get your power-ups.


Email Invasion

Email Invasion has the same game play as Typing Mode, however you can import your own word lists via email. This allows you to destroy spam messages, battle through study notes, and practice commonly mistyped words.


 

Hostages

       

The aliens will sometimes take hostages; if you see an alien with a hostage you should destroy that alien immediately. When a hostage is freed he or she will provide you with a power-up item. In arcade mode the hostage in vulnerable to being shot, be careful not to shoot the hostage. If you kill a hostage it will cost you points.

 

Power Ups


Grenade - A powerful explosive that will clear the entire screen of enemies. You begin the game with a limited number of grenades, but hostages can also reward you with more when you free them. To throw a grenade, press  or the space bar.


First-Aid Kit - Obtained sometimes by rescuing a hostage, the first-aid kit will automatically applied and will replenish a portion of your health.
