🎵 Welcome to wavyyy — Everything You Need to Know
Hey everyone, and welcome to the wavyyy community forum! 🎉
Whether you just signed up or you've been playing for a while, this is your go-to post for understanding everything wavyyy has to offer — what it is, how to play, what modes are available, and how to get the most out of the experience.
What is wavyyy?
wavyyy is a music blind test game powered by Deezer's catalogue of millions of tracks. The concept is simple: a 30-second clip of a song plays, and you have to guess the title before the timer runs out. The faster you answer, the more points you score.
It works solo, with friends online, or even projected on a big screen for parties. Whether you're a casual listener or a hardcore music nerd, wavyyy will test your ears.
How to Play
- Pick an artist or a playlist — search for any artist in the world, or browse our themed playlists (80s, Rap, Disney, Pop, Rock, and more).
- Listen to the clip — a 30-second preview plays. Watch the countdown timer: the clock is ticking.
- Guess from four options — pick the right song title (A, B, C or D). You can also use your keyboard keys 1–4 or A–D to answer faster.
- Score points — a correct answer scores up to 100 points. The earlier you buzz in, the higher the multiplier. A wrong answer or timeout scores 0.
- See the recap — after each round, you get a recap showing how you did, what the correct answer was, and how many points you earned.
After all rounds, your full results are shown with your total score, accuracy rate, and average response time.
Game Modes
wavyyy has 8 game modes to suit every situation:
🎤 Artist Mode (Free)
Search for literally any artist in the Deezer catalogue. wavyyy pulls their discography and builds you a blind test on the spot. Great for testing yourself on your favourite artists or discovering how many songs you actually know.
🎵 Playlist Mode (Free)
Play curated themed playlists: Disney soundtracks, 80s hits, French Rap, K-Pop, Classic Rock, and many more. New playlists are added regularly. No need to pick an artist — just jump in.
🌅 Artist of the Day (Free)
Every day, a new mystery artist is revealed with a series of hints. You have 10 tries to guess who it is. Think of it as a musical Wordle — come back daily for a new challenge.
🎶 Song of the Day (Free)
Guess the daily featured song letter by letter — pure Wordle-style, 10 attempts. One song, one chance per day. Compare your result with the community.
🎮 Multiplayer (PRO)
Create or join live online lobbies with multiple players. Everyone hears the same clip at the same time and answers simultaneously. A leaderboard updates in real time after each round. Great for friend groups or jumping into a public room.
⚔️ Duel — 1v1 (PRO)
Challenge a single opponent head-to-head. You both play the exact same rounds at the same time. The better score wins. Simple, brutal, fun.
📺 IRL Mode (PRO)
Host a party game Kahoot-style: you display wavyyy on one big screen, and all your guests answer from their own phones. Perfect for game nights, parties, or classroom use. Everyone sees the same clip, the host screen shows who's winning.
✏️ Custom Playlists (PRO)
Build your own blind test from any artist or any song in the Deezer catalogue. Name your playlist, share it with friends, and challenge them on your personal selection. Custom playlists can be replayed and edited at any time.
Scoring & Rulesets
Most modes support different rulesets that change how the game plays:
- Standard — 10 rounds, 30 seconds per round, up to 1,000 pts per correct answer
- Sudden Death — one wrong answer and it's over. High pressure, high reward
- Ranked — competitive mode where wins and losses affect your Win Points (WP) and ranking tier
Scoring tip: answering in the first few seconds of a clip can nearly double your points. Speed matters.
Progression System
wavyyy has a full XP & leveling system:
- XP is earned at the end of every game based on your score and performance
