You’re going to need a large amount of music on your iPhone for this app. MusIQ is a trivia app that pulls music from your library and plays small segments of random songs. Your goal is to select the correct song corresponding the what’s playing, before the time runs out. The amount of time left also corresponds to the amount of points you’ll receive for choosing the correct song. Based on the round mode, an incorrect answer will either end the game or defect your points from rising. MusIQ has a local score board, and if logged on to the Open Feint system, a global high score board, and even achievements.
MusIQ is a highly enjoyable game to kill loads of time and can be very addicting. It’s unfortunately flawed by some serious stability problems and an annoyingly glitchy menu. The Open Feint integration is really cool, it allows you to send comments to friends and the developer, track high scores, and personal achievements. MusIQ has a bunch of achievements for you to strive for, some which can be quite challenging!
Overall MusIQ has a beautiful but glitchy interface, and amazingly addictive gameplay that the whole team at iPhone App Reviewer has enjoyed, we’re looking forward to anything else the developer comes out with. For only a buck, MusIQ is a great deal for any music lover. What’s next for MusIQ on our devices? Well we’re gonna sync hundreds of classic music pieces and have one frustrating challenge.
Final Ratings:
Gameplay: 8/10 – Simple but effective, an awesome concept.
Enjoyment: 8.6/10 – Really enjoyed this one.
Graphics: 7/10 – A very aesthetically appealing interface.
Sound: 8.2/10 – Plays your iPod music perfectly directly from the library (requires 3.0 firmware)
Technology: 6/10 – Due to all the stability problems and glitches I’d give it a 0 but the whole game’s concept is built on using some cool features of the 3.0 Firmware – and the Open Feint Support is cool.
Replay Value: 7.5/10 – Really addicting and even has personal achievements.
Overall Rating: 7.5/10
Further Improvements:
- New gameplay modes
- Multiplayer modes
- Fix glitches and stability
