Step by step: what a session looks like
-
You choose your setup
A word list, a rhyme scheme, a fill mode, a beat and a length from 8 to 64 bars.
-
Words scroll in time with the beat
The ball bounces on every beat. Each bar is four beats, and the rhyme word sits on beat four.

You rap
You say something that leads into the word and land the rhyme on beat four.
-
You review and repeat
The Game Review shows how long you went, bars rapped and your day streak.
Examples
Who uses it
First time freestylers learning timing, rappers warming up, teachers building vocabulary and rhythm, and friends passing a phone around.

Common mistakes
-
Confusing it with similar named sites
Third party browser games use a similar name. Read games like The Rhyme Game to tell them apart.

Expecting it to write your lines
The game gives you rhyme words and timing. The lines are yours.

Expecting a score for every bar
The official pages describe a review of time, bars and streak, not a grade for each rhyme.
