How to use it
Choose how many letters, which letters to use, and whether they may repeat.
Good to know
Uses the 26-letter English alphabet and cryptographic randomness.
Choose a letter for a round
For a category game, set the count to 1, select all letters, and choose uppercase. One run may return O. To make a vowel exercise, choose Vowels; with repeats disabled, you can draw at most five letters because the available set is A, E, I, O, and U.
Random draw is not a word-game rules engine
The tool uses the 26-letter English alphabet and browser cryptographic randomness. It does not exclude awkward starting letters, account for language alphabets, or check whether a letter has already been used in a different round. Record the result yourself if your activity needs an audit trail.
