Hit it to fix it. Groove to fix it better.
Welcome to a little repair stall on a busy Indian street. Kettles, radios, sewing machines, TVs, fans...Every customer brings something that "makes a funny rhythm".
There's only one cure: when their song starts, pick up your hammer and give it back its beat.
No notes to follow. 32 bars, your way.
After the count of 3, 2, 1, hit the appliance's four spots with D F J K.There's no chart. Where you hit, with which sound and how often is up to you.
- Offbeat: hits between the beats (the pink cells) score the most. Keep them coming for a run bonus
- Timing: the closer to the grid, the better
- Tone: BOOM on the song's low sounds, TING on its high ones. Match the song to score
- Groove: play a phrase again and again, and change it a little every fourth bar (a fill)
Fix it and they dance. Botch it and... BOOM.
The higher your score, the higher the repair rank: the appliance roars back to life and its owner starts dancing.Fall short and they'll haggle you down. Fall far short and it blows up in their face.
Save up all week for the festival stage
Run the stall from Monday to Saturday and save up for the festival fee.Make it, and Sunday night is yours: the big festival stage, with the whole street dancing.
Holi, Ganesh Chaturthi, Navratri, Diwali: play all four festivals of the year.
- Ten kinds of appliance, each with its own twist: the radio's beat is "ears only", the TV's "eyes only", the fan turns its head...
- Plenty of Bollywood and bhangra tracks: every customer brings their own song
- Deck out your stall at the bazaar: a clapper, marigold garlands, a dhol drum, a mirror ball, a golden hammer... each one helps you earn
- The weekend rush: a higher bar to pass and a tighter grid
