The classic typing game, rebuilt
Words fall from the sky over a rainy night city. Type each word before it reaches the ground to clear it. As you level up the words get longer and fall faster, so the game grows with you from beginner to expert.
Falling Words trains you to read ahead and keep your eyes on the screen, two habits that make a big difference to typing speed. Easy mode is gentle enough for kids around 7 and up, while Hard is a real test for fast typists. Turn on the keyboard helper if you want a reminder of which finger to use, and turn it off when you're ready to fly solo.
