This game has been designed and created in collaboration with professional musicians and educators.
I’ve memorized the treble clef notes from middle c onwards and this game makes it so much fun to learn piano sheet music. I always score perfect in this game from practicing so much.
The interface makes it unclear what to do. Tap the green button every time a C note gets to the red line(?) ... I thought at first, having come from the rhythm cat app, but no, you tap the actual C note (for example) on the staff when it appears. That's how you "collect" a note. Ahh!
I've been searching the App Store for a more reading game that would hold my attention. I found some winners, but this was not one of them. I gave it 3 stars because it was accurate (some are not!) and fairly creative. My main complaint (and why I won't spring for the PRO version) is that sequences need to be switched more often. The time period is 60 seconds to grab a new set of notes, and I was done (bored) with the pattern by 30 seconds, especially if I was on fast mode (which wasn't fast enough). If it can't hold my attention, an 8-year-old will be done with this game before he gets past the first stage. It would be ideal to make this a customizable feature, giving players as little or as much time as they like.
I actually really liked this app! It was really good at helping me learn how to read music, easy to follow, and fun. But it just wasn't enough. I wish this version had more levels
