How to play

  1. Every game has its own cue: a chef's “hup!”, a box on a belt, a frog's croak, a tennis lob and more.
  2. Tap the pad or press Space right on the beat. Drum Buddy uses two pads: F for kick, J for snare.
  3. Each tap is graded Perfect, Great or Good, and hits build a combo.
  4. Finish with 60% precision for one star, 80% for two and 92% for three.

My taps feel late. What can I do?

Use the ⏱ Sync button to match the game to your speaker or headphone delay.

Is there a daily challenge?

Yes. The Daily remix is five games, the same for everyone, new every day at midnight Eastern time.
