How to play Piano
Press play and the first round teaches you the rest. It is a mouse-only game, so there is nothing to memorise on the keyboard — which is also why it feels native on a touchscreen. The game is wide rather than tall — fullscreen is worth it on a monitor, and on a phone the picture is much better sideways. There is no penalty for failing, so push a little harder than feels safe.

Why it is worth playing
The appeal here is the loop: a short round, a clear result, and an obvious idea about what to do differently next time. Nothing about it assumes you have played it before.
