Bandle
Welcome to Bandle, a unique and engaging game that challenges your musical knowledge and auditory skills. In Bandle, your task is to guess a popular song’s chorus as an ensemble of musicians plays it—each joining in one by one. Can you identify the song from just the drummer’s beat, or will you need the bassist’s tune to help you out? The fewer musicians you need, the higher your score. Get ready to test your musical prowess and share your triumphs with friends!
