02How to play
Three rules to stay on beat
Combos raise your multiplier to x2 at 10, x3 at 25 and x4 at 50 hits in a row. One miss or wrong key starts it over.
1Tap in the ring
Notes slide in from the right. Press the key as it sits inside the ring: spot on is Perfect, a little off is Great or Good.
2Catch the star
Every 3rd phrase starts with a star note. Hit it to switch on the spotlight: double points for the next 8 beats.
3Keep the groove
Hits fill the groove meter and make the crowd jump. Misses and wrong keys drain it, and if it runs dry the song stops.
03Timing and grades
How close is close enough?
Every hit is judged by how far it lands from the beat, in thousandths of a second. Your timing score at the end of the song sets your grade.
The hit window
- Perfectwithin 45 ms+300
- Greatwithin 90 ms+200
- Goodwithin 140 ms+100
Off by more than 140 ms is a miss. After each song a timing meter shows whether you tend to rush or drag.
The grade ladder

- C55%+
- B70%+ unlocks next
- A85%+
- S95%+ top grade
Perfect counts 100%, Great 75% and Good 40% of a note. Your live grade shows in the game while you play.
