I like it, Is kind of addictive if you like classical music.

A simple concept, well executed, although I agree with people about the quality of some of the recordings. My only other gripe was the game seemed to take a long time to load in the browser.

I am glad our music teacher was chill and did not require much of us, but it does mean that I am completely hopeless at this game. That said, I am sure it is more fun for those actually into classical music.

The current selection system works, but is a touch inefficient, as you need to learn what the keys mean this time before each level. Perhaps that is also meant to be part of the memory challenge? If not, a simple menu would’ve done the job just as well.

Then again, if you want to really lean into the memory angle, you could always assign a unique key for each composer. If any wonderfully-talented musical nerds get that far, they can enjoy juggling the double challenge of guessing and remembering which one of the twelve keys they ought to press!

My high school teacher would be so disappointed in me, but this was super fun. Really enjoyed playing this one.

Only comment would be to keep the letter selection on the screen, and/or use 1, 2, 3, 4 instead of letters. Not that it was hard to pull the selection, but could have made it that much easier.

very nice! It was hard at first to memorize which composers were on which key (my memory sucks I know) but the game was well made overall!

First, cool idea. I like it. I suck at it, but I like it.

The controls are easy and the instructions are good.

The addition of a scoreboard is a nice touch! I wish we could read the scores somewhere, but that's okay.


The game really wants to run in fullscreen, which I didn't realize until reading the error I got, but after that it worked pretty well. Maybe you could add that to the instructions on the page.

I wish the audio quality was more consistent especially given that I think those are all in public domain now so finding modern covers shouldn't be too hard.

The voice mispronounces some things. In future, don't be afraid to horrifyingly misspell words to get the TTS to say it properly. LOL


Sure it isn't very innovative or anything, but I respect it for what it is. Thank you for making it!

Theres a reason I'm addicted to Tiktoks like this!

The audio quality differences could maybe be used to add difficulty levels in future, like "can you identify Mozart under water?"
