As the city changes, the subway route structure and station names also change. The World Subway Typing Game is a challenge to learn the route order while experiencing the different sensations of each city, from familiar Korean station names to English, Japanese, and Chinese notation.
Seoul: Using transfer stations as a reference point
In Seoul, long routes are less burdensome by dividing them into sections based on frequently used transfer stations. On the loop line, check the direction of travel first and remember the stations on both sides as a set.
Tokyo: View route symbols and station names together
Tokyo has a variety of operators and routes, so it is important to make a habit of looking at the route colors, symbols, and destinations. After learning the order of station names through games and finding the same symbols on the route map, it becomes easier to figure out the actual travel route.
New York: Distinguishing between service letters and directions
New York Subway may operate multiple letter/number services within the same color. Enter the English station name in the game, and check the Uptown/Downtown direction and whether it stops at the destination station when actually moving.
After completing one city, expand to the next city
Rather than comparing all cities from the beginning, complete exactly one route in one city and then move to another city. Although the input method is the same, the notation and route structure are different, allowing you to naturally experience new levels of difficulty.
