How to play

  1. Picture clues appear at the top of the screen and fall toward the bottom.
  2. Type the French word for the picture in the input field and press Enter (or tap Fire) to blast it before it lands.
  3. A correct answer destroys the picture and scores points — faster answers score a time bonus.
  4. If a picture reaches the bottom you lose a life. The round ends when you have blasted 8 words, or when all three lives are gone.

Questions

Why do the pictures fall faster?

The fall speed increases with your score to keep the difficulty escalating. Spelling common words fast enough to keep up is the challenge.

Can I practice specific topics?

Yes — use the topic chip above to load words from a single category like animals, food or travel.
