A Heardle-style audio race. Each round plays a clip that grows in steps — 1s, then 2s, 4s, 8s, 16s, up to the full 30s. The earlier you name the track, the more points you score. Only the title counts; naming the artist alone won’t win it.

Gameplay

1

Listen to the clip

The round opens on a one-second snippet. The host (or an auto-timer) extends it a step at a time as the room struggles.
2

Name the track

Type the song title in chat — no command. Guess whenever you like; the first correct guess wins the round.
3

Score by how early you called it

Your points depend on the step you guessed at: a one-second call is worth the most, the full 30-second reveal the least.

How the reveal works

Each round is a staircase: the clip only gets longer, and the points on offer only get smaller — so it rewards the quick ear.
Six ascending steps of clip length with descending point values from six down to one
  • Six steps, six point tiers. A win scores 6 on the 1-second clip, then 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 as the clip extends to 2, 4, 8, 16, and 30 seconds.
  • Title only. The acceptance check matches the track title (plus common variants) — the artist name alone doesn’t win.
  • Any win beats no win. Even a call on the final 30-second clip banks a point, so it’s always worth guessing.

Configuration

OptionValuesDefault
Title-hint gifta gift that reveals title lettersOff until set
The reveal staircase (clip lengths and point tiers) is fixed. The only host option is the optional title-hint gift below. Title-hint gift. Off until the host picks a gift. When set, sending it uncovers letters of the song title for the whole room (see Gifts).

Layout

  1. Marquee — game title and how-to hint.
  2. Round + step meter — round number and which reveal step the clip is on.
  3. Record — the now-playing hero; artwork stays hidden until the round ends (it often spells the title).
  4. Title skeleton — the title as blanks, with any gift-revealed letters filled in.
  5. Leaderboard — players ranked by total points.
The game moves through Lobby → Round → Revealed → Finished.

Gifts

Guess the Song’s gift is a cooperative title hint — it uncovers letters of the title for the whole room. It’s off unless the host sets it.
Letter tiles filling in as gifts are sent
  • Sending the configured gift reveals letters of the title at random positions, helping everyone converge.
  • It’s a hint, not a solve — the round is still won by the first correct guess.

Scoring

  • Points are awarded by reveal step: 6 → 1 from the shortest clip to the longest.
  • The highest total across the set wins; ties are shipped as co-winners.
  • Points also feed the per-streamer win tally behind avatar ring tiers. Wins are tracked per streamer.
