❤ Gameplay Overview

The game tasks you with reconstructing various musical compositions by arranging different sound samples in the correct order. To succeed, you'll need careful listening and a good sense of musical elements like pitch, rhythm, and timbre.

❤ Listening and Reconstruction

The core gameplay loop involves listening to a musical track and then attempting to recreate it by placing the appropriate sound samples, such as melodies, basslines, drums, and vocals, onto a grid-like layout. You can choose to listen to the full track or isolate individual layers to more easily discern the different components.

❤ Challenge and Difficulty Curve

The early levels start relatively simple, allowing you to get acquainted with the mechanics. However, the difficulty ramps up significantly as you progress, with later levels featuring more complex musical arrangements that require precise timing and a keen sense of how the various elements fit together. Completing levels without relying on hints or isolating the audio layers is particularly challenging and provides a sense of accomplishment for skilled players.

❤ Musical Insight and Ear Training

As you deconstruct and reconstruct the musical tracks, you'll gain a deeper understanding of how different musical elements work together to create a cohesive piece of music. This can help improve your own musical ear and appreciation for the intricacies of sound design.

❤ Relaxing and Satisfying Experience

The minimalist visual style and ambient, atmospheric soundtrack create a calming environment that allows you to focus on the listening and problem-solving aspects of the game. Successfully completing a level and hearing the full musical composition come together is widely reported as a satisfying and even "eargasmic" feeling.

❤ Composer Mode and Replayability

In addition to the main puzzle levels, the game includes a Composer mode that allows you to create your own musical pieces using the game's sound samples. This feature adds to the game's replayability and enables you to further explore and experiment with the musical elements you've learned through the core gameplay.
