2024-11-11 | Mat Sch | Makes a lot of fun, but some answers are not unique, or the hints are not unique | |
2023-06-09 | Diego Barbieri | Grate fun game to practice vim skills. Minimalistic & free, what i was looking for! | |
2022-02-02 | G. E. Scott | I used this on my lunch breaks at work when I was in college to learn vim, and honestly it's such a great app. | |
2022-01-10 | J Cruz | While the idea is great, the app is rendering the letters in a way that makes it very hard to read. There's basically no space between the letters at all. | |
2022-01-10 | Артём Новак | Doesn't work at OnePlus 9rt. Text in the table look messy, it's unreadable. | |
2021-07-17 | Tim Meneely | Really nice, smoothly executed, and I'm learning rather than just wasting time on another game. A niggle: Vim can do the same thing in multiple ways, and sometimes I don't think "wrong" answers are really wrong, but forget the score and learn from the explanations. | |
2020-10-30 | Guilherme Corrêa | The commands are very descriptive and you learn even when have the wrong answer. | |
2020-05-14 | Mitsuo Tokumori | Very cool if you already know and use Vim enough or as your favorite text editor. Only annoying thing is that the ESC key (or ) is represented with it's "control keybind" which is ok I think. Just personal taste. Very cool though, and a fun way to learn new Vim tricks and testing your knowledge. | |
2020-03-15 | A Google user | I actually find this pretty entertaining. I don't normally like these kinds of games, but this one has taught me a couple of new vim commands and the puzzle aspect of the hard questions is pretty good. Now throw in some viml maybe? :) | |
2019-12-12 | A Google user | Good mix of puzzles. Sometimes I can't tell from the explanation why I am wrong ;a picture of the result of each answer could help when the text description sounds like it would produce the right result |
