Set up the race
Create a room, choose a duration, and send the invite link to your friends. Everyone joins with a display name and waits in the same room.
Race the same passage
The host starts when players are ready. Each racer types the shared passage, while the room shows live progress and the result metrics develop.
Compare the useful numbers
The final tally orders players by WPM and also shows accuracy. Talk about both: a result with fewer mistakes may be the better foundation for the next race.
Keep the rematch interesting
- Switch the duration when the group wants a different pacing challenge.
- Use a slower round as a reset after a rushed result.
- Celebrate a personal accuracy or consistency improvement, not only first place.
Practical tips
- ✎Agree that friendly rivalry includes taking breaks when hands feel tired.
- ✎Invite the same group back for a rematch after a short practice session.
