This has more options than typical online typing speed tests, but I'm not sure I'd say it's more "fun" or "immersive".

It has less options than Monkeytype, which is the "state of the art" online typing test.

> but I'm not sure I'd say it's more "fun" or "immersive"

What do you mean? Obviously, it has an "immerse" button which opens the site in fullscreen!

I remember this one:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Typing_of_the_Dead

Completely absurd bonkers madness. I've seen a youtube lets play and was laughing my head off. I suspect they adapted some sentences to the zombie setting, too.

This just seems like Monkeytype but with less options and a lot of AI-generated images (which shows that this is also potentially vibecoded)
