Sudden Death

The same passage for everyone, and no second chances. A wrong key stops you where you stand. Whoever gets furthest wins.

Sudden Death is a typing race where accuracy is everything. The first wrong key ends your run, so slowing down to stay right is the whole strategy.

How to play Sudden Death

• Everybody gets the same passage on the same countdown.
• Type it. The first wrong key stops you where you stand.
• Whoever gets furthest wins.

Scoring

• Players are placed by how far through the passage they got before their first mistake.

Tips

• Type at the speed you can hold without a mistake, not the speed you can reach.
• Watch for capitals and punctuation — they are where most runs end.
• Read a word ahead of the one you are typing, so nothing in the passage takes you by surprise.
• If a key keeps ending your runs, drill it in Practice first: every miss here is counted against the key that was asked for.

Play it with friends

• On your own, against the characters — each plays the game by its own rules the moment it starts, so there is always somebody to beat.
• With friends, each on their own phone or laptop: one of you shows a code, the others type it in, and everybody gets exactly the same game on the same Go.
• Taking turns on one device — pass it round, and each turn is scored against the turns before.
