    Awesome, fun and addictive.
    I love this game. They need to add tenor clef (it has treble, alto and bass).

    Great app
    I've used this with a whole class of 5th graders and they were mesmerized by it. Boys were anxious to play it. Awesome app, thanks!

    Very fun
    I'm a student who recently purchased this for music class. It is very informational and has helped me learned my lines and spaces in under an hour. I highly recommend it if you are interested in a musical career. Show more

    Not what I thought it was
    My music teacher showed us this on his computer. He demonstrated it on his clarinet. A note would appear on the screen and he would play it and win. I downloaded it on my iPhone and (it was 99 cents by the way) and it only lets you tap the notes not play them. It wasn't what I thought it was. Show more

    Good app, but not what I was expecting.
    Today, my band teacher showed us the app, and demonstrated how it hones your note accuracy. He used his clarinet with it, and played the notes it showed. The problem is, I can't do that. All it allows me to do is click the notes, but I was expecting to be able to play the notes with my saxophone. Show more

    Great idea for kids!
    Playing this game immediately captured the attention of my eight year old son who much prefers playing the piano by ear. I really like that you can adjust the range of notes on the staff - he's not quite ready for the extreme ledger lines and really needs to drill the more common notes first. So grateful to find a music note game with a shooting theme for a boy who'd rather be playing Plants Vs Zombies! I hope he stays interested in this for awhile to aid his sight reading. One suggestion: another option for the player to select the notes through one octave of piano keys (rather than the alphabetical buttons) would be awesome, further helping to link a written note to a piano key shape. But don't get me wrong, this is quite useful as it is. Thanks so much! Show more

    My piano students are learning faster than ever
    Great app. Must have for any music student learning to read.

    Music Teacher Approved!
    As a Music Teacher/HS Orchestra Director for 31 years(now retired) I was assigned to teach elementary classroom music K to 3rd grade my last 2 years. This app is an excellent help to secure the learning process in a fun and creative manner. I used the pc version at school and displayed the app onto a SMART-board. My 2nd students were completely ready for 3rd grade recorder instruction and assisted the 3rd grade students who needed more help in reading notation faster. I also would use at the high school for violists and students needing help in music theory. Students became self motivated! Show more

    Great game
    It's a great game and can help a lot for my orchestra class. Also the new update with game center makes it addictive trying to be the best.?

    Helpful and entertaining
    I'm in an orchestra at school, and I play the viola. The problem was that I couldn't read the alto clef. I bought this app and played it a couple of times, and by the next week, I could play the music! It's a really fun way to practice your sight reading skills. GET THE APP!!? You'll love it!??

    Staff Wars
    One of the dumbest apps you could ever buy. Don't waste your time or money.

    Addicting
    I just discovered this app and it's great. It rely helped me to learn the alto clef, and it is so much fun to play with students. They can play each other and compete for the highest score. It's just as fun as the mindless games that everyone's playing, but they're learning something important. I only wish the treble clef could way up high for violin players. Show more

    Needs actual keyboard
    This is a fantastic app, BUT why isn't there an option for an image of an actual keyboard instead of just the letter names? Hell, you could have a fretboard option. This app has great potential as a handy teaching tool for young students. Show more

    Students LOVE this!
    This is the only note reading game I have found that students have asked to stay in from recess to play. I don't know if it is because it's "Star Wars" themed, or because it is just that much fun... But even my least interested kid in my music classes participates and dominates at this game! A must have!! Show more
  • WillisRosenfeld, 04.08.2014
    Student favorite
    My students all love this game, even the ones who claim to not read any music. They all ask to play this whenever there's an opportunity. I must have for classroom music teachers. Show more

    Love it!!
    I love this game it is a opportunity to practice your notes.
  • Emx91387, 07.03.2014
    Almost there
    This would have 5 stars if it gave the correct note if a child gets it wrong. Otherwise it's a great tool
