Welcome to Your Morse Code Journey!
Ever wondered what those mysterious beeps and boops in old movies actually mean? MorseGuesser turns learning Morse code into an addictive game that'll have you decoding dots and dashes like a pro telegraph operator from the 1800s.
How It Works (It's Easier Than You Think!)
Click that shiny play button (or just smash the spacebar like we all do) to hear your first Morse code challenge. It might sound like alien communication at first, but trust us—your brain will start picking up patterns faster than you'd expect!
Those beeps aren't random! Short beeps are "dots" (·) and long beeps are "dashes" (−). Your mission: figure out what letter or word they're spelling out. Don't worry, we start you off easy.
Type what you think you heard. No pressure! Got it wrong? You'll learn faster from mistakes than from getting everything right the first time.
Nail enough answers and you'll unlock harder challenges. We're talking actual words, then longer phrases that would make Samuel Morse himself proud.
Your Secret Weapons
Start slow at 5 WPM (words per minute) when you're a newbie, then crank it up to 30 WPM when you're feeling like a Morse code ninja.
Stuck? Hit the eye button to sneak a peek at the dots and dashes. But don't make it a habit—your ears need the practice!
Adjust the beep frequency from 400 to 1000 Hz. Find your sweet spot—some people prefer deeper tones, others like it squeaky.
Watch your score climb and streak counters soar. Nothing beats the satisfaction of a 20+ correct streak!
Pro Shortcuts (Because We're All Lazy)
Actually Useful Learning Tips
Begin at 5-10 WPM. Yes, it sounds like a snail tapping out code, but you'll build proper recognition patterns. Speed comes naturally—rushing doesn't.
Don't sit there going "dot-dot-dash-dot"—that's the slow way. Instead, listen for the rhythm. The letter "C" sounds like "dah-di-dah-dit" with a specific musical beat.
15 minutes daily beats a 3-hour weekend cramming session. Your brain needs time to process and form those neural pathways.
The peek button is like training wheels—helpful at first, but you'll never learn to balance if you don't let go. Challenge your ears!
The Science Behind the Beeps
Morse code isn't just random noise—it's a beautifully logical system. Here's how the timing works (in case you're curious):

Don't overthink it! Samuel Morse didn't perfect his code overnight, and neither will you. But that's the fun part—every correct answer is a little victory. Head back to the game and start listening. Your first "aha!" moment is just a few beeps away.
