Work

and trying to concentrate on working? If the answer is yes, how do you feel? You absolutely feel
overwhelmed and stressful as hell, don’t you?

taking a nice break. You can go around engaging in a bit of gossip with your co-workers while enjoying
a cup of coffee. However, what would be really great is if you can find something that not only boosts
your typing speed, but also gives you some fun?
Yes, fortunately, Typing Racer (https://typingracer.io/) game, developed by Designveloper
(https://www.designveloper.com/), has made this easier for you!

It is also a social racing game where you can compete against other players. You can invite your co-
worker to play with you. Awesome, right?
How to play Typing Racer
First step: let’s go to typingracer.io (https://typingracer.io/). After choosing a cool name, you can begin
quickly by choosing one of three racing modes: Enter Game, Race With Friends and Practices. Each
mode is unique in experience and serves a different purpose.
For instance, when you choose “Race With Friends”, you can start a private race and invite your friends
to join. Competing with your own friends makes competition even hotter, doesn’t it? In the “Practices”
mode, you will play alone to improve your own skills.

After selecting a racing mode, you will be connected to a race that is about to begin or start a new
race. As soon as you see the green light is turned off, start typing. The faster you type, the faster
your car moves.
When the race is finished, there will be a scoreboard that shows what place you came. The faster
and more accurately you typed, the more bonus you will have received. The more money you earn,
the more expensive car you can buy next time.
Let’s take a look at the video below to see how we actually race:

wasting time. Even you think the same, don’t you? But, it does not. The five-minute gaming can help
you come back feeling more refreshed and happier.
Long work hours will make processing information more difficult later in the day, and taking game
breaks helps relax and motivate you, giving you more energy to continue to work. As I mentioned in the
previous article “Should we work remotely?” (https://blog.designveloper.com/2017/02/24/remote-
