Climb a tower of flashcards that keeps handing you the very word you're about to forget.

How to play

An adaptive recall model tracks how likely you are to remember each card right now, and keeps serving the ones on the edge of forgetting. Answer correctly to climb the tower; miss and you lose a life. The pressure rises as floors stack up, so the words you're shakiest on come back exactly when they're hardest.
