Cozy Book Sanctuary: heal between battles and help books and readers get where they need to go. Enter a battle gate and you get to choose your Battle Promise. Low difficulties are safer, you keep more when KO'd but earn less reward. High difficulty will earn more powerful loot but if you get KO'd you'll loose all your stuff.

Story: How did the most powerful library in the galaxy become a place of battle? One day, three troublesome creatures attacked the turtle's ultimate library. They caused the turtle-beings to mysteriously disappear, and captured the living books of power. Now the three bosses have sent their armies of creatures to finish their takeover of Word Turtle Island.

Portia, the book of portals, managed to escape. Now, she searches Word Turtle Island for someone to help her rescue the turtles, books and the readers caught in the catastrophe.

Wort, far away at the edge of Word Turtle Island, is about to leave to seek a different turtle path when Portia finds him. Wort learns he is the last of the Word Turtle beings.

It is now up to Wort and Portia (and you) to take back Word Turtle Island!

Showing Word Turtle Island at events, two things I've been asked, often together: 1: "Is this a typing game?" and 2: "Is this an educational game?". 1: yes/but also more and 2: not explicitly so. You can type or play with controller, mouse, or touch too.
