HOW TO PLAY

Melody Fight is a free multiplayer music guessing game you can play right in your browser. No downloads, no registration — just pick a game mode, invite your friends, and start playing!

GETTING STARTED

  1. Choose a game mode — pick from three unique modes below.
  2. Invite players — up to 20 players join from their own phones by scanning the QR code or entering the 4-digit session code shown in the lobby (or tapping Join a Game on the home page).
  3. Select song sets — choose from curated playlists spanning different genres and eras.
  4. Ready up and play — everyone taps Ready in the lobby, then listen to 30-second previews and guess as fast as you can!

GAME MODES

Song Year Quiz

Listen to a song and place it where it belongs on your personal timeline. Placement is all-or-nothing — the right chronological spot scores, the wrong one costs you. Name the artist and title for bonus points! How scoring works

Guess the Artist

Hear a track and pick the correct artist from the options. Speed matters — the faster you answer, the higher your score! How scoring works

Decade Dash

Match songs to their decade — from the 60s to the 2020s. A great mode for casual players who love music from all eras. How scoring works

HOW SCORING WORKS

Song Year Quiz

Place the song in the correct chronological spot on your timeline: +5 points. Wrong spot: −2. You can also type the artist and title for bonus points: +2 each for a match — and in the default fuzzy mode a close spelling still earns +1. A round can score anywhere from −2 to +9.

Guess the Artist

The fastest correct answer scores a flat 100 points. Every other correct answer loses value the longer it takes — points melt linearly over the 30-second preview (correct at 15 seconds is worth about 50; at 30 seconds it is 0). Wrong or missing answers score 0.

Decade Dash

The correct decade scores 50 points, plus a speed bonus of up to 50 more that shrinks over the 30-second preview — so a correct answer is always worth 50–100. The wrong decade scores 0.

PLAY MODES

  • Simultaneous — everyone guesses the same song at the same time on their own device.
  • Sequential — players take turns on the same device, passing it to the next player after each round.

And two play styles:

  • Democratic (default) — everyone taps Ready in the lobby and the server runs the round timers; no single person controls the game.
  • Host mode — one screen (a laptop or TV) controls the pace and shows the leaderboard while players answer from their phones.
