## What is Cado?

Cado - Tetris meets Scrabble, head to head.

Letters fall one at a time. Slide them into place, build words, clear them, score. Three minutes on the clock, three speed phases, and an opponent playing the exact same letters - win by outscoring them, not by luck.

FIND MATCH (ASYNC)
Play your three minutes now; your opponent plays the same letters whenever they're next online. Results and Elo ratings settle when both sides are in.

LIVE MATCH
Real-time head-to-head with their board on screen next to yours.

OPEN CHALLENGES
Post a score on a seed and let anyone try to beat it.

SEASON LADDER
Monthly seasons, Elo ratings, a leaderboard that remembers.

UNLIMITED PLAY
No clock - the letters just keep getting faster. How long can you last?

REAL HAPTICS
Feel every slide, drop, and word cascade.

Fair by design: both players always get identical letters, and every score is verified server-side. No ads, no tracking, no purchases - just the falling letters.
