Etymology

Words carry histories. KeyboardLines explores how those histories meet the patterns created by a modern keyboard.

From word to path

Each word creates a distinct path when its letters are traced across a QWERTY keyboard. Modrune uses those paths as clues, inviting players to work backwards from movement to language.

Modrune

In Modrune, a “rune” is a visual mark made from a word’s keyboard path. The path is not a definition of the word; it is a puzzle clue that works alongside other hints.
