FAQ
Does my ping affect my score?
No. The game tracks every player's ping, and the scoring system accounts for it — your placement reflects your typing, not your connection. Distance to the server never decides a round.
What do WPM, ACC, and RT mean?
- WPM — words per minute: your characters per minute divided by 5, the typing-test standard word length (spaces included). Characters are counted from your final answer over your typing time, so it's directly comparable to your score in any typing test.
- ACC — accuracy: net characters divided by gross keystrokes — how much of what you typed made it into the answer you submitted. Type it clean with no corrections and it reads 100%; every typo, backspace, and wasted keystroke pulls it down. It measures clean typing, not whether your answer was right — spelling it wrong costs you points, not ACC.
- RT — reaction time: milliseconds from the go signal to your first keystroke.
- PB — personal best. In match results, ♛ marks the best WPM and ★ the fastest RT of the match.
Stats count only rounds you got correct — speed on a wrong answer doesn't earn averages or personal bests.
What if a phrase feels unfair?
We do our best to audit the quality of all phrases, but if something seems off you can report it after the game and we'll take a look!
What platforms does it run on?
Windows and macOS (Apple Silicon and Intel), exclusively on Steam.
Are other languages supported?
