Product Description:
A perfect mixture of fun and education, Rhythm 'n Notes has something to offer gamers and musicians of all ages. This unique title offers tonal and rhythmic music training in the form of entertaining piano and drumming games. No matter what your musical background or tastes, Rhythm 'n Notes is for you. A wide variety of note lessons encourages you to recognize and identify not only notes but also complex chords. Rhythm exercises teach and test the fundamentals of keeping time as well as advanced rhythmic patterns. Starting lessons initiate the beginner, while advanced levels keep experts on top of their game. Open practice mode allows you to familiarize yourself with all notes and chords, both by name and sound. There is a mix of gameplay elements as you learn the fundamentals of music composition. Drumming consists of actual tapping on the DS touchpad with the stylus to the beat of the rhythm in order to succeed. When it comes time to tickle the ivories, then a good ear is needed to match the proper tones. Work your way through all the levels and unleash your inner maestro.

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Review
This game was not at all what I expected it to be. The package looks very mature, but the game is for children.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Get MusicAce Instead!
I cannot think of a single good thing to say about this game. This game had to have been made by someone with no musical background or teaching experience.

I love music and when I saw this game I thought what a great way to increase my musical knowledge. This game was not what I expected. I was hoping to do more then learn chords by ear. I lost interest long before I even got to the notes. The rhythm section was a bit better but you just listen to a rhythm and repeat it.

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Big disappointment
Based on the title I had high hopes for Rhythm & Notes. I had hoped it would help develop my rhythm and note reading skills. Unfortnately, it fails on multiple levels. The Rhythm portion is just a set of fixed patterns that you complete one at a time until you've completed all of them. No real variety or opportunity to specify any unique patterns. The Notes portion first requires that you learn a series of chords, only once you've mastered those can you start working on the notes and there is ... Read More

Out of my 5 grandkids who have tried to play this, my 14 year old likes it the best. To be honest, I think it is a little hard for the younger ones.
