⏱️ Cipher Sprint
🕵️ A Sherlock Holmes tool — The consulting detective himself
The dancing men are marching, and the clock is against you. Each round shows a word encoded in the famous stick-figure cipher; type what it says and the next files in. Sixty seconds, escalating word lengths, a combo meter for consecutive solves — and the alphabet chart is right there, because speed-reading it is the whole game.
✅ Free to use — no account, nothing to configure.
What it does
Real cipher, real speed
The same dancing-men glyphs from the Cipher Bureau, now against a countdown.
Escalating difficulty
Three-letter words to start; solve fast and the words grow longer.
Combo scoring
Consecutive solves build a multiplier — one mistake resets it.
