Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Password Game?
It's a playful puzzle inspired by neal.fun's password game. You build a password that must satisfy a growing list of increasingly absurd and conflicting rules, learning real password-security facts along the way.
Is it free?
Yes, the Password Game is completely free with no sign-up required.
Is my password safe?
Absolutely. All rule checking and strength analysis happen entirely in your browser. Your password is never uploaded or stored on any server.
Should I use my real password?
No. It's a game — type anything fun. The passwords you build to win are designed to satisfy silly rules, not to be good real-world passwords.
How is the strength score calculated?
After you win, we estimate entropy from your password's length and character space, then flag common weak patterns like sequences, repeats and known weak words — all locally.
