Musical Locks drops you into a puzzle challenge you can start in a couple of seconds. The core of it is for kids. No account, no install and no plugins — just the game in a browser tab.
About Musical Locks
The goal of the game is to open all the locks, by correctly guessing and repeating the notes of fragments of children's melodies. In order to listen to a fragment of the melody, click on the button - Listen. To play a fragment, click on the required buttons with notes. On touch screen devices, simply press the buttons with your finger.
How to play Musical Locks
There is very little to learn before your first run. You will want a keyboard for this one — the arrow keys / WASD carry most of it, and the table below has the rest. Portrait layout: hold the phone the way you normally do, or play it centred in the page on desktop. Expect the first attempt to be a write-off; that is normal here.
Controls
| Input | Action |
|---|---|
| Mouse | Navigate menus and interact |
| Arrow keys / WASD | Move |
| Spacebar | Primary action |
On mobile: Tap and swipe directly on the screen. The game is built for portrait, so you can play one-handed without rotating your phone.
Why it is worth playing
Difficulty in Musical Locks comes from the game itself rather than from waiting, unlocking or paying, which is rarer than it should be. A browser game does not need to be more than that.
