Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Its a nice game. It was fun to play, and easy to get 100% on. A suggestion is to add even MORE themes, and maybe allow you to make your own (Colors 1-11, font, accidental style, etc.). Again, its a nice game, and we encourage you to make more like this. Another suggestion is to make it INFINITE, which makes it Normal Mode or Infinite Mode. For normal mode, when you get back to C, you win, and if you win, you unlock the circle of fourths. For Infinite mode, you can add the spiral of fifths which is infinite. (Adding bb, a double flat and , a double sharp. You can add as many accidentals as you want.). You can also make the sounds microtonal. Anyways, bye! Unnamed15.
To everyone saying they want instructions: the description says it’s a 2048 style game. If you don’t know what 2048 is, we’re surprised you even know how to download apps on your phone. And even if you don’t, it should be pretty clear what’s happening once up swipe a few times.
Addictive game, brilliant idea, gorgeous harmonies.
We kickstarted this with total excitement. We are absolutely happy with the outcome.
So great, dig the German notation.
When we first put sounds into this game it instantly became something more than just a game. This is an experience you can’t afford to miss. And now with being able contrast Fifths mode with Fourths mode, it’s incredible.
We might be daft, but we dont know how to play this game. Where is the how to? If it is there we cant find it. We would be interested to see this more clearly.
Ive been playing this game since it came out (on one phone or another) and we got quite far on this version–past 200%. Before this it had taken us several months to get to the 150% mark you must pass to play it in fourths mode. But we got past it and was enjoying fourths mode for a while; then we didnt touch the game for a few weeks. When we opened it again on a whim, all our progress had been erased :^( we were no longer able to play in fourths mode but eventually we got to 150% and unlocked it again. Then just this past week it has happened again ! We love this game, love the different colors and notations and fourths mode, it helped us back when we were taking a music theory class. Its addicting so imma still play it but this was frustrating as hell. We hope it doesnt get erased again.
We love the design, color scheme, and the sounds, but it’s SO. SLOW. We know exactly how to play the game unlike some of the reviews, but it feels so clunky to try to swipe two or three times before it catches up and let’s us actually move. Like trying to stream with a slow connection.
It’s a cool idea for sure but how is it played.
Does not make sense whatsoever!! Piece a crap.
We thought, "Hey a game to help you learn the Circle of fifths!". But, no directions.. So it’s pointless.
About to give up on this app, no instructions and we don’t get how to play it.
Don’t know what it does or how to play. Has no directions on how to play.
We understand the circle of fifths, what we don’t understand is how to play this game! There are no directions. Jeez.
And more than a little addictive.
This game is a blast to play, sounds delicious, and is extremely helpful to music theory students; especially after you unlock fourths mode.
Love this app, it’s a fun musical way to play 2048. Would like it if enharmonics were all spelled equally. Seems unnecessary for the fifth of E to spell out as Cb sometimes and B others. All the wide open fifths have a nice mid-century populist sound to them.
