Use your keyboard or touch controls. Audio starts with interaction inside the game.
Learn All 22 Hebrew Letters by Playing

You do not need to know Hebrew to begin. Start with a small group of letters and build from there. For a reference alongside the game, read our Hebrew alphabet guide.
How Alef Bet Rush Teaches the Alef Bet
Recognize
Choose the letter that matches the prompt. Recalling a shape yourself helps it stick more than simply looking at a chart.
Rush
Put familiar letters into practice in a faster round. Keep recognising what you have learned while the pace changes.
Review
Revisit letters through spaced recall and corrective feedback. Mistakes show you what to practise next; mastery builds with each answer.
Practice Hebrew Letter Recognition
Recognising a letter means recalling it when you need it. Repeated exposure, active recall and spaced review help turn an unfamiliar shape into a letter you can identify with confidence. The Galaxy Map lets you follow your mission progression.
Learn Hebrew Letter Names and Pronunciation
Hear native Hebrew letter-name audio as you learn. Letter names help you talk about the alphabet, but a letter name is not always the sound that letter makes in a word. Reading practice comes next.
Hebrew Letters Beginners Often Confuse
Some Hebrew letters have similar shapes. Slow down and notice the details before choosing. The game includes similar-letter practice and review so you can work on distinctions that still feel uncertain.
