A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux

Stuck on a deadline and out of ideas, you’ve turned to the last resort of desperate writers everywhere: infinite monkeys on infinite typewriters.

In Writer's Block, you'll guide a troop of monkeys as they type out random words. When one of them stumbles upon a valid word, it appears above their head in green. Type that word in, and you'll unlock it for your word bank, helping you piece together famous quotes and sentences at the bottom of the screen. 

As you progress, the quotes get tougher, and you’ll need to complete 30 of them to finish the game. Every completed word earns you bananas, which you can use to buy more monkeys or snag upgrades from the shop. Monkeys that retype already unlocked words will slowly generate passive income, helping you in your literary quest. 

A short, but fun game about harnessing the power of chaos as random monkeys smash keys until something happens.
