How to play

1

Rest your fingers on the middle row: A S D F and J K L ;. Feel the bumps on F and J.

2

Look at the stone next to Wombat and press that key. The coloured finger shows which finger to use.

3

Wombat hops onto the stone. Reach the gold star at the end of the line!

4

No slips in a line wins 3 stars.

5

Clear a lesson to win a new hat and visit a new place.

6

On a tablet, tap the keys on the screen. On a phone, tap the big keys.

TipKeep your fingers on the home row and move only the finger that needs to reach, then bring it back. Try not to look down at your hands: the gloves on the screen show you where each finger goes. After a round, tap Hats to pick what Wombat wears.

Home Row Hero is a first touch-typing lesson with a friendly wombat. Each key sits on a stepping stone, and when you press it, Wombat hops on. Two rainbow gloves rest on the keyboard, and each finger has its own colour, the same colour as its keys, so you always know which finger to use. The lessons follow the order typing teachers use: F and J, then the home row, then the top row and the bottom row, then little words with the space bar. A wrong key only makes the stone wiggle. Finish a line with no slips for three stars, and clear a lesson to win a hat as Wombat travels from a garden to the jungle, under the sea, a snowy village and space.
