The Alphabet Game

What The Alphabet Game is

The Alphabet Game turns a virtual road trip into a letter-spotting scavenger hunt. You travel along routes built from real street-level imagery, scanning signs and the surrounding scenery for the letters A through Z. Each letter you find earns points, and your final score is tallied when you reach the end of the route.

How to play

From the landing page, choose Daily Challenge, Free Play, or Play with Friends. Free Play offers two letter orders: A-to-Z, which plays like the Daily Challenge, and Random, which uses the same route but with a randomized letter order. In A-to-Z mode, letters must be found in alphabetical order. You can pan and zoom the street-level photo to inspect signs closely, then draw a circle around a found letter by holding and dragging. Drive buttons advance you along the route to new signs. If a letter stumps you, you can skip it and move on, but skipped letters earn zero points. The game ends when you reach the end of the route and your score is tallied.

Tips

1. Since each letter's point value drops as you travel, try to spot letters soon after reaching a new sign rather than lingering.
2. Harder letters have a larger distance allowance before their score hits the 25% floor, so you can afford to search longer for them.
3. Skips are unlimited but cost you the letter's points entirely, so only skip when you're confident the letter isn't on the current sign.
4. Not every letter appears on every route, so a letter you can't find may simply not be present.
