Typing Tutor Turbo is a stand-up arcade game owned by the King of Town. While its name suggests it is designed to teach one how to type, how it does so is unclear, as it does not have a keyboard. The King showed it to Strong Bad while the latter had to spend the night at the former's castle; though Strong Bad was initially unimpressed with the game, he later got some fun out of it by using the cabinet to crush the King.
It appears to be a shooting game, visually resembling Space Invaders or Galaga, where the player controls a ship and fires at groups of letters; the game may also draw influence from the Game Genie, a cheating device for Nintendo Entertainment System games that features an identical font and a similar game-like format. According to the King of Town, the goal is to accumulate "WPMs" ("that's words per minute, you know").
It has no known relation to Typing Tutor Jr., a similarly-named game that Strong Bad sold at his garage sale.
