The AToM device aims to teach you 36 x morse code characters (26 letters and 10 numbers) from the international set via level, score and time-driven arcade-styled gameplay. Your best level and score are saved at the end of each round for each mode; a better score means you are getting faster and/or progressing further. Achievements are awarded as you reach new levels for the first time - with 30 to unlock in total. The manual will update and clues will be provided as you input correct or incorrect answers.
Good luck and Godspeed! Clive Lawrence @tmwfa
