Choose your level, then keep accuracy ahead of speed.

The challenge pauses when focus leaves the page. Scores and practice targets remain inside this browser session.

Skills this game trains

Typing words under pressure without visual overload

Each round reports specific patterns you can carry into a focused practice session.

Recognition

One clear active word keeps the visual task understandable.

Reaction

Timestamp-based deadlines add calm urgency without frame-dependent scoring.

Recovery

Missed words and weak letters lead to focused practice after the round.

Typing words under pressure without visual overload

The game uses a bounded DOM and CSS stage rather than canvas or a physics engine. Difficulty changes vocabulary, response windows, lives, and future target capacity.

Reduced-motion mode removes continuous travel and reports urgency in four stable steps. Timing, lives, scoring, and target deadlines stay equivalent, so the accessible mode is not disadvantaged.

Falling Words questions

Does Falling Words require tracking animation?

No. Turn on reduced motion to replace continuous falling with four labelled urgency steps under the same rules.

How many words appear at once?

The DOM stays bounded and the active target is always explicit. The initial mode presents one typing target while reserving safe capacity by difficulty.

What happens when a word is missed?

A missed deadline removes one life, resets the combo, records the word, and advances to the next target. The round finishes once when lives reach zero.
