How the typing challenges work
Choose a challenge, then type as you would in a normal typing test. The timer starts with your first key. When it stops, your result is checked against the goal. Both parts of a goal count: a 50 WPM Club run at 85% accuracy doesn't pass, because speed without accuracy isn't a skill worth a badge.
The special rules
- No Backspace. The Backspace key does nothing. Every key you press stays, so you learn to slow down just enough to get it right the first time.
- Sudden Death. The first wrong key ends the test on the spot. Survive the full 30 seconds to pass. It's the best cure for rushing.
- Perfectionist. 100% accuracy, and a typo you fix still counts as a mistake. Calm, steady typing wins.
- Marathon. Five minutes at 40 WPM or more. A real test of stamina.
Tips for beating the challenges
- Work up the clubs in order: 30, then 50, then 70 WPM. Each one is a real step up.
- If accuracy is what fails you, try Sudden Death a few times. It quickly shows where you rush.
- Warm up with a game first: Fruit Typing is quick and fun.
