The music quiz that turns any party into a contest

One phone runs the whole game. Everyone else can follow along live in their browser. No buzzers, no setup, no cards, and no awkward moment where the music won't play.

Tunigma runs the whole music round from one phone, everyone following along live in their browser, free.

Start the party

A great party game has to be instant to explain and impossible to play quietly, and a music quiz is both, which is why guess the song games are a party staple. Tunigma is built for exactly this: a song plays, everyone thinks they know the year, and half the room is already arguing before anyone's placed a card. What makes it work at a party starts with the format itself.

Fast rounds that pull everyone in

Rounds run just a few minutes, so you can slot one in before dinner or keep a bracket going all night. Because it rewards a good ear over facts, even someone who usually loses at quizzes has a real chance, and nobody feels shut out. And since everyone recognizes something, from the old classics to the current charts, a mixed crowd of ages all stay in it together. A game that inclusive only works, though, if it's dead simple to run.

One phone runs the whole party

You don't need the app on every phone or a pile of gear. One device hosts the match: keep it with a host who runs the show, or pass it around the table so each team takes its turn. That's the entire setup, pick a theme, press start, play, with no buzzers to charge, no cards to shuffle, and no answer sheets to print. And running it from one phone unlocks the part that actually makes it a party.

Everyone watches the scoreboard live

Here's the trick no card game can match. While one phone runs the match, everyone else can open the live Watch page in any browser. It shows each team's timeline filling in, the song playing now, and who's pulling ahead. Put it on the big screen in the living room and the whole party follows every guess together, instead of crowding around one small phone. It turns a quiet game into a spectator sport, and you can tilt the whole thing toward whoever showed up.

Tuned to your crowd, with nothing to connect

Set the mood before you start: an 80s throwback for the parents, a hip hop round for the cousins, a home country special for a reunion, all by choosing the decades, genres, and countries that fit the room. With thousands of songs behind every filter, no two parties play the same set, so your regulars never memorize the deck. And there are no cards to buy or run out, no Spotify or other streaming app, and nothing to connect. Tunigma carries its own audio and is a free download on Android, with iOS coming. The custom music quiz page has the full range if you want to dig in.

Frequently asked questions

How many people can play?

As many as you can fit around a phone or a screen. Split into teams for a big group, or play head to head for a small one. One device runs the whole game.

Do we each need the app?

No. Only the host phone needs Tunigma. Everyone else can watch the match live in any browser through the Watch page, which is perfect on a TV.

How long does a game take?

Just a few minutes per game, so you can play a quick round or run a full tournament across the night.

Is it good for mixed ages?

Yes. With songs from the 1950s to the 2020s and a focus on recognizing music by ear, every generation at the party has a real chance to win.

Do we need Spotify?

No streaming service is needed. Tunigma plays the songs itself, and it's free to download.
