Place the Keycaps Beginner Guide

Place the Keycaps is a Roblox sorting experience currently in beta. The main objective is to identify loose keycaps, organize them by keyboard section, and place them in the correct empty positions.

1

Launch the Experience

Open the official Roblox experience page and select Play. Roblox Player will open automatically or prompt you to install it before joining.

2

Inspect the Keyboard

Look over the empty keyboard before sorting the pile. Identify the letter rows, number row, modifier positions, function row, navigation cluster, and large special-key spaces.

3

Choose a Clear Keycap

Start with a keycap whose label and shape are easy to recognize. Large keys such as Spacebar, Enter, Shift, Backspace, and Ctrl are usually faster to identify than small punctuation keys.

4

Match the Label and Size

Compare the printed legend and physical width of the keycap with the available keyboard slots. Use the interaction prompt shown in the experience to pick up and place it.

5

Complete One Section at a Time

Finish a small group such as the letter keys or number row before moving to another section. This keeps the remaining pile easier to scan.

6

Clear Difficult Keycaps

Press Q to throw a held keycap when it is blocking your view or does not belong in the section you are currently completing. Continue until the keyboard collection is complete.

Place the Keycaps Keycap Sorting Guide

A large mixed pile becomes easier to manage when it is separated into functional groups. Use these categories as temporary sorting zones around the keyboard.

Letter Keys

A–Z

Separate letters first, then divide them into the QWERTY, ASDF, and ZXCV rows. Keeping each row together reduces repeated searching.

Number Row

1–0MinusEqualsBackspace

Keep the horizontal number row separate from any navigation or numeric-cluster keys. Place the sequence from left to right.

Modifier Keys

CtrlAltShiftCaps LockTabWindowsMenu

Check both the legend and key width. Several modifiers have left-side and right-side positions that look similar but may use different sizes.

Function Keys

EscF1–F12

Create a separate function-row group and arrange the numbered keys in order before placing them along the top of the keyboard.

Navigation Keys

InsertHomePage UpDeleteEndPage DownArrow Keys

Keep navigation keys together beside the main typing area. Arrange the arrows in their familiar inverted-T shape.

Large Special Keys

SpacebarEnterBackspaceShift

Sort these by physical shape and width. Their larger slots make them useful landmarks for locating nearby smaller keys.

Place the Keycaps Controls and Keybinds

The official experience description lists Q for throwing keycaps and Ctrl for unlocking the mouse. Additional Roblox controls and device-specific gestures can be checked from the in-experience Help menu.

Place the Keycaps Keyboard Layout Guide

Keyboard slots are easiest to recognize by row and function. The sequences below cover the main typing area, function row, modifiers, navigation keys, and arrow cluster used when organizing a standard desktop-style keyboard.

Function Row
EscF1F2F3F4F5F6F7F8F9F10F11F12

The uppermost row. Arrange the F-keys in numerical order from left to right.

TabQWERTYUIOPLeft BracketRight BracketBackslash

Place the Keycaps All Keycaps Checklist

Place the Keycaps asks you to sort the entire pile and complete the keyboard collection. Use this checklist alongside the in-game board, matching each cap by its printed legend, size, and slot position.

Function Row

EscF1-F4F5-F8F9-F12
Confirm that every separated slot across the top row contains its matching keycap.
Function keys are small and can remain hidden underneath larger caps in the pile.

Number Row

Number keys 1-0Symbol keys beside the numbersBackspace
Read each legend carefully and complete the entire row from left to right.
Number-row symbols can look similar when caps are rotated.

Top Letter Row

Q-W-E-R-T-YU-I-O-PBracket and row-ending keys
Fill the QWERTY row in order and check the keys positioned after P.
The smaller punctuation caps near the right edge are easy to overlook.

Home Letter Row

A-S-D-F-GH-J-K-LPunctuation keysEnter
Complete the home row and match the larger Enter cap to the correctly sized slot.
Enter is a special-sized keycap and should not be compared only by its legend.

Bottom Letter Row

Z-X-C-V-BN-MComma, period, and slash keysLeft and right Shift
Place every letter and punctuation cap before checking both Shift positions.
The two Shift caps can use different widths, so match them by slot size.

Modifier and Spacebar Row

Ctrl keysAlt keysSystem or menu keys shown on the boardSpacebar
Check the full bottom row from both outer edges toward the Spacebar.
Repeated modifier legends can appear on both sides of the keyboard.

Navigation and Arrow Keys

Navigation keys shown on the boardUp arrowLeft arrowDown arrowRight arrow
Inspect every separated cluster to the right of the main typing area.
Arrow keys are identical in size, so use the printed direction rather than the cap shape.

Final Special-Key Sweep

Oversized keycapsRepeated left and right modifiersSmall isolated keysAny remaining empty slot
Scan the board for empty outlines, then search the pile and surrounding floor for unmatched caps.
Spacebar, Enter, Shift, Backspace, Ctrl, and function keys are common final misses.

Place the Keycaps Completion Guide

The official objective is to sort a pile of keycaps and complete your keyboard collection. Finishing every placement also satisfies the requirement for the Sorted All Keycaps achievement.

1

Inspect the Empty Keyboard

Before moving caps, look over the keyboard layout and identify the function row, number row, letter rows, modifiers, and separated key clusters.

You know which section each major keycap type belongs to.
2

Expose the Keycap Pile

Move large caps and obvious pieces first so smaller caps underneath become visible. Press Q when you need to throw an obstructing keycap away from the center of the pile.

Most legends in the pile can be seen without repeatedly moving the same caps.
3

Complete the Easy Letter Rows

Place clearly labeled alphabet keys in keyboard order. Finishing long letter sequences quickly creates more space for sorting the remaining pieces.

The QWERTY, home, and bottom letter rows no longer have obvious letter gaps.
4

Place Numbers and Function Keys

Sort number-row caps separately from F1-F12 caps. Use both the printed legend and the position of the empty slot.

The two upper keyboard rows are filled without swapped number and function caps.
5

Match Modifiers by Side and Size

Handle Ctrl, Alt, Shift, Enter, Backspace, and Spacebar carefully. Repeated modifier names may have left-side and right-side positions, while larger caps only fit specific slots.

All wide slots and repeated modifier positions are filled.
6

Finish Separated Key Clusters

Check navigation, arrow, and other isolated areas shown on the in-game board. Match arrow caps by direction and special caps by their legends.

No empty slots remain outside the main typing area.
7

Perform a Final Pile and Floor Check

Scan the keyboard for empty outlines, then inspect the original pile area and nearby floor for caps that were thrown or pushed aside. Press Ctrl when you need to unlock the mouse for easier inspection.

Every keycap has been sorted and the keyboard collection is complete.
