Frequently asked questions
How does the word runner game work?
A prompt sits at the top and three answer gates come toward you, one per lane. Swipe left or right, or tap the left or right half of the screen, to change lanes before the gates arrive.
What happens if I run through the wrong gate?
It counts as a crash and costs a heart. Running through the right gate scores and makes the next wave faster.
Can I make a word runner game from my own notes?
Yes. Pick a topic, paste your notes or a word list, or snap a photo of your notes. The wrong gates use other answers from your material.
