How to play Type the Alphabet
A to Z as fast as humanly possible.
How to play
Type the alphabet in order. The clock starts on your first correct letter and stops on Z.
Wrong keys are simply ignored — the game only advances on the next correct letter — but flailing still costs real time.
Your personal best is recorded per-letter and races alongside you as a ghost on future runs.
Scoring
- Your score is the total time in milliseconds — lower is better.
- Beat your best and the ghost updates to the new run.
Tips
- Never stop to "fix" a typo — wrong characters don't count against you, so just keep going.
- Practice the hard seams (LMNOP, WXYZ) as chunks rather than single letters.
- Pointless Plus syncs your ghost across devices, so your fastest machine sets the pace everywhere.
Frequently asked questions
Do typos add a penalty?
No penalty is added — wrong keys are ignored. The cost is purely the time you waste pressing them.
What is the ghost?
A replay of your personal best, letter by letter, shown live so you know if you're ahead or behind.
