Meet the Nimtype companions

Pick a typing companion and it grows a little every time you practise — from a tiny egg to a full-grown buddy. There are 18 to collect across six families. Adopt your first one for free, then unlock the rest by building streaks, hitting speed milestones, and finishing lessons and games.
