What is Chrono Vibes?

Chrono Vibes is a music recognition party game for iPhone where you build a personal timeline of songs. Each turn you listen to a song snippet, receive a mystery card, then place it into the correct year slot. Reveal to score and pass the phone to the next player.

Music trivia, but kinetic

Instead of typing answers, you make fast guesses by placing cards into a timeline.

Great for parties

One phone, many players. Perfect for living rooms, bars, and game nights.

Quick to learn

Three core actions: listen, drag, reveal. Everything else is momentum.

Built for quick, competitive fun

Real song recognition

Tap the mic button and let the app recognize the song snippet you're playing on an external speaker/device.

Drag into your timeline

Place the mystery card where you think it belongs. You can adjust placement until you hit Reveal.

Multiplayer, one phone

Hand the phone to the next player after each turn. Everyone builds their own timeline and races to the win target.

How it works

1

Shuffle your anchor year

At the start of your first turn, you get a random anchor year to begin your timeline.

2

Play a song elsewhere

Use a speaker, laptop, or another phone. Keep the snippet playing near your device.

3

Listen, then place

When the app finds a match, you receive a mystery card. Drag it into your timeline where you think the year belongs.

4

Reveal to score

Tap Reveal to confirm. Correct placements stay and score. Wrong placements reveal briefly and fade away.
