Bonus pickups play a note. Name what you heard (Do, Mi, Sol...) and the power-up is yours. Miss, and the horde keeps coming.

EarShot is a real arcade shooter (roguelite perks, bosses, 10 weapons, a 100-stage campaign) that is secretly a complete ear-training course. It uses movable-do solfège: you hear every note relative to the key, the method that carries over to playing real music by ear. It starts with three notes and works up to seventh chords, at whatever pace your accuracy sets.

  • Free. No account, no ads in the browser version.
  • Practice Lab for calm, zombie-free drilling.
  • Tone Deaf mode: all zombies, no quizzes. For morale.
  • Daily challenge and a global rank.

Headphones or speakers on: the game is played by ear.
