Skills, brain and play
Build a skill, train your brain, and challenge your friends — touch typing, daily puzzles, number games, memory pairs, reaction time and one-button sports, free, with nothing to sign up for.
Start with the typing course. Every key is drawn in the colour of the finger that presses it, each lesson brings in a key or two at a time, and every lesson you pass earns a certificate with your speed and accuracy on it. Practice is made from your own mistakes: the keys you miss and the words you stumble on come back until each one is typed cleanly twice.
Then train your brain every day. A new word guess, sudoku, mini crossword, nonogram and Make 24 arrive each morning — the same puzzles for everybody, so a group of friends can each play on their own phone and compare. Six brain games adapt to you as you play — Target Hunter, Don’t Tap!, Direction Chaos, Number Ninja, Pattern Breaker and Glimpse — and a daily workout runs five of them. Speed maths, number chains and the times tables are a minute each; Pairs and Flash Pairs turn two cards at a time and ask what you remember; reaction time asks how quick your hands are.
And when you want a challenge, every game is the same game on the same Go for everybody in it: one of you shows a code, the rest type it in on their own phones. Typing races, Word Rain and Rhythm Keys, the number games, and four sports on one button — Bullseye (archery), Six Hitter (cricket), Marbles and Top Corner (penalties). Pairs is a duel on one phone as well — find a pair and you go again. The characters play too, whenever nobody else is about.
Nothing needs an account. Progress, best runs and certificates are kept on your own device — and signing in with Google takes them to every FinClamp app and every phone or computer you use.
