About This Game

Hosted by the grinning Buzz and his assistant Rose, this music trivia show simulation recreates the energy of a live quiz program complete with buzzers, theme music, and crowd reactions. Players choose from sixteen contestant characters whose styles echo famous musicians—Gina the pop diva, Phil the rocker, Pelvis the Elvis tribute, and others inspired by the likes of Gwen Stefani, Liam Gallagher, and Bob Marley. Over a thousand music clips spanning the 1950s through 2005 and more than five thousand questions power a game that works equally well as a solo speed challenge or a lively multiplayer event.
