Dino Chorus

About Dino Chorus

Dino Chorus is a memory game for your ears and your eyes. Four of the studio’s dinosaurs stand on stage — Rex, his uncle Mo, Bella and Frost — and each one sings its own note. They sing you a short song, hopping as they sing; then it is your turn to tap them in the same order. Get it right and they sing it again with one more note on the end, and a little faster.

One wrong note, or a long pause, ends the round. Your record is the longest song you sang back without a slip. Every song is written fresh by our server one note at a time, and every tap is checked there, so the only way up the board is a good memory. The leaderboard is weekly: it resets every Monday at 00:00 UTC.

How to play

1. Press Start and listen: the dinosaurs sing a song of three notes, each lighting up as it sings.
2. When the song ends, tap the dinosaurs in the same order — or press 1, 2, 3 and 4 on your keyboard.
3. Sing it back right and the song comes again with one more note, a little quicker each time.
4. A wrong note, or more than six seconds without a tap, ends the round.
5. Your score is the longest song you sang back. Sign in to put it on the weekly board.

Tips

• Give each dinosaur a word — “Rex, Mo, Mo, Frost” — and say the song to yourself as it plays.
• The song never changes, it only grows: you only ever need to learn the one new note at the end.
• Each singer has its own pitch. With the sound on, the tune is easier to remember than the order.
• Group long songs into chunks of three or four, the way you would a phone number.
• There is no prize for speed: take your time between taps, up to the six-second limit.
