What it is

Every route is a short passage about a place Olly flies over: a glacier, a kelp forest, a harbor at sunset. First you fly a scout flight, and your keystrokes leave a shimmering ghost trail. Then the ghost plane replays your own timing and you race it. The ghost is always you, from your last flight on this device; nobody else's runs ever appear, and there are no leaderboards.

What children learn

Builds fluent, accurate typing of short connected passages through self-comparison. Learners see their own improvement from one flight to the next instead of being ranked against others. Stars reward accuracy; High Glide also shows a gentle, level-appropriate pace band that never costs a star.

What it teaches

  • Meaningful passages

How to play

Needs a physical keyboard. Click the route or press Enter to start each flight. Backspace fixes mistakes. The ghost plane moves along the route at your earlier pace; turn it off with the Ghost switch if you prefer. Say next word reads the route aloud.

Plays with: Keyboard
