"If I let my fingers wander idly over the keys of a typewriter it might happen that my screed made an intelligible sentence. If an army of monkeys were strumming on typewriters they might write all the books in the British Museum." - Arthur Eddington

The infinite monkey theorem is a concept in mathematics and philosophy stating that a monkey randomly striking a typewriter for an infinite amount of time will eventually produce Shakespeare. In this game, a monkey with a keyboard watches monkeys with typewriters randomly type Shakespeare or any other text of your choosing! One monkey was too slow, so you can buy more monkeys (and gorillas); try to complete your word as fast as you can! Can you embrace your inner monke and reach this games almost surely inevitable conclusion?
