Hitster made "guess the year and place the song on a timeline" a party favourite. Melody Fight takes that idea online: one person starts a game, everyone else joins from their phone with a 4-digit code, the song preview plays, and each player places it on their own timeline. No box, no QR cards, no music subscription.
HITSTER VS MELODY FIGHT
- Price: Hitster is a boxed game plus a streaming account; Melody Fight is free.
- Setup: no cards to shuffle, no phone-scanning of QR cards; share one code and play.
- Players: 1 to 20, each on their own device, all answering at the same time.
- Music: about 27,000 tracks with 30-second previews, in curated sets by genre, decade and country.
- More modes: Guess the Artist and Decade Dash use the same room and scoreboard.
WHAT STAYS THE SAME
- The fun part: arguing whether that hit is 1987 or 1991.
- Timelines grow round by round, and the closest guess wins the points.
FAQ
- Do I need Spotify or Apple Music?
- No. Previews play inside the game in any modern browser.
- Can we play remotely?
- Yes. Everyone joins with the same code from anywhere; the timers run on the server, so rounds stay in sync.
