    At Least 3 Players

    Every game needs some people...

    They need to be ready to party.

    Phones

    You'll need these to play music.

    Any music app will do, Spotify is great but YouTube is free.

    Bluetooth Speaker

    This is optional...

    It's more fun when it's loud. To play this way, pass around one phone to play each song.

  • Setup

    Before you start, get the music ready. You’ll need a phone and an app that plays music (YouTube recommended, other streaming music platforms work as well).

     

    With Bluetooth speaker: Decide on one phone/device that will be connected. All players will play music from that phone and it will be passed around after each player starts their song.

     

    Without Bluetooth Speaker: Each player searches on their own phone and plays music through their phone when it’s their turn.

    Objective

    The first player to win five rounds wins the game. A round is won when players receive a majority of votes for the best song to represent the card that was played. Players keep the card they win in front of them to help keep score.

     

    The basic concept if the game is simple:

     

    Play The Card

    Pick Your Songs

    Play The Music

    Vote The Winner

    Next Round!

     

    However, there are a couple details you might need to know as you play, so read on below...

    Setup

    Before you start, get the music ready. You’ll need a phone and an app that plays music (YouTube recommended, other streaming music platforms work as well).

     

    With Bluetooth speaker: Decide on one phone/device that will be connected. All players will play music from that phone and it will be passed around after each player starts their song.

     

    Without Bluetooth Speaker: Each player searches on their own phone and plays music through their phone when it’s their turn.

    Getting Started

    All players draw three cards to start. Players can look at their cards, but not show their cards to others until they’re played. The player with the birthday earliest in the year will play the first card and continue clockwise.

    Directions

    1. The player who goes first chooses a card and places it in the middle of the group for everyone to see.

     

    2. The starting player plays the best song that they feel represents what is written on the card. There are no wrong choices, go with what feels best and will get the most votes! Everyone should get ready to play their own song while they listen to the first choice. Silence hurts the vibe, so be ready when it’s your turn!

     

    3. After the song starts playing, the player passes the phone to the left (if using one phone on a Bluetooth speaker- otherwise just play music on individual phones).

     

    4. The song is played for at least 1 minute (you can play it longer if everyone is loving it or shorter if everyone “gets it”).

     

    5. The player to the left of the first player plays a different song that represents the same card on the table. If someone plays the song you wanted to play you need to figure out a second choice.

     

    6. Continue until all players have played their song for card on the table.

     

    7. Once all songs have been played, each player quickly recaps which song they played so players remember before they vote.

     

    8. Players individually vote on the best song. The player who played the card votes first. Players cannot vote for their own song and whoever has the most votes wins the round. The winner collects that playing card to keep track of the score.

     

    9. Player to the left starts the next round!

    Tie Breaker

    In the case that there is a tie vote, a Tie Breaker round occurs. In a Tie Breaker round, a card is drawn from the deck and the tied players play a song according to the prompt. The players who are not involved in the tie cast their vote and the winner gets the card. If the Tie Breaker results again in a tie vote--paper, rock, scissors for the win!

    Super Tie

    In the event that all players receive 1 vote, go on to the next round. The winner of the next round will win two points (the tied card and the new card).

    Cut In Line Card

    There are a few “Cut in Line” cards in the deck. Players can use this card to instantly make it their turn so they don’t have to wait.

    Time's Up

    Time expires for your turn when the song from the previous player has finished. If you can't come up with a song while the previous song is playing, you lose your turn. This is really rare...if someone is having this much trouble then other players should help out!
