Type the World, a game for learning typing and geography, is out now on Steam
Tampere, Finland — October 28, 2026. Groundpoint Games today released Type the World, a typing game that teaches ten-finger touch typing on a physical keyboard using the countries, capitals, cities, rivers and other geographical features of the real world. The full game is available now on Steam.
The game features the whole world with more than 2 000 locations and includes three game modes: Keyboard Trainer, a focused practice mode for learning the keys; Type the World, a chill vibes mode for daily repetition and learning; and Flash Cards, a challenge mode for memorising geography. It is built for kids and adults alike, with no typing experience required, and ships in nine languages with matching keyboard layouts (EFIGS, Finnish, Swedish, Polish and Brazilian Portuguese).
Type the World is priced at $11.99 USD / €12.99 EUR / £10.99 GBP, with a 10 % discount during launch week. A free demo covering Europe (400 locations) remains available for players who want to try it first.
“Type the World is a great game for learning two essential life skills, touch typing and a grasp of geography. I’m proud of the game and hope it entertains and helps a lot of people,” says Jaakko Maaniemi, founder of Groundpoint Games.
