Getting Started

Jump into your first FuzzyTunes game in minutes!

đŸŽ¯ Step 1: Choose Your Room

When you arrive at FuzzyTunes, you'll see a selection of music rooms displayed as colorful vinyl records. Each room features different playlists and themes to match your musical taste!

💡 Pro Tip: Look at the room descriptions to find your favorite genre. Rooms like "80s Classics" or "Modern Hits" give you a hint about the music you'll hear!
  • Browse available rooms on the homepage
  • Check room descriptions for music themes
  • See if other players are already in the room
  • Click "Join the Dance" to enter your chosen room

✨ Step 2: Pick Your Nickname

After selecting a room, you'll be prompted to enter a nickname. This is how you'll appear on the leaderboard during the game. Be creative and have fun with it!

Good Nicknames

  • ✅ MusicMaster2024
  • ✅ DiscoQueen
  • ✅ BeatDropper
  • ✅ VinylVibes

Nickname Tips

  • 📝 Keep it fun and friendly
  • 📝 3-20 characters work best
  • 📝 Express your personality
  • 📝 Stand out on the leaderboard

⏰ Step 3: Wait for Game Start

Once you've entered the room with your nickname, you'll see the game lobby. Here's what happens next:

  • Automatic Start: Games begin automatically when enough players join (usually 2-4 players)
  • Countdown Timer: You'll see a countdown before the first round starts
  • Get Ready: Prepare your ears and fingers for some musical action!
đŸŽĩ Audio Check: Make sure your volume is turned up! Some browsers require you to click on the page once before audio can play. You'll need to hear the music to guess the songs!
