It really makes learning Vim fun! been playing it for 3 days and it's already making some of the hotkeys feel like second nature.
Vim has a steep learning curve and this game will help you get over the hardest part of that curve, and you will have fun doing it.

What is Vim Adventures?
VIM Adventures is an online game based on VIM's keyboard shortcuts (commands, motions and operators). It's the "Zelda meets text editing" game. It's a puzzle game for practicing and memorizing VIM commands (good old VI is also covered, of course). It's an easy way to learn VIM without a steep learning curve. You play a blinking cursor appearing one day in a semi text based world of Textland inhabited by little people but ruled by bugs. You soon discover that your arrival was foretold by an old prophecy and that you're expected to restore order to the world (in case you didn't make it to level 2 yet...).
