About Bandapes

🙈 Bandapes is a rhythmic battle game where you take position of a band leader and play the drums to guide your squad of apes to victory!

♪♪♪ each ape listens to different drum patterns ♪♪♪

🙊 so try looking out for patterns/apes that fit well together so you can quickly dish out the right commands.

🙉 you battle against the bands of other players, which are controlled by an AI that plays like the real player would (almost)!

Features
  • ~1 hour playtime
  • asynchronous online multiplayer
  • 6 different apes each with different abilities
  • the apes can wear hats 👒🎩
  • 10 different hats to find


🐒🐒🐒 there are 6 different types of apes each with a special move! 🐒🐒🐒

Controls

play with mouse
or, while in battle, play the drums with 1 - 4

Bandapes is a rhythm fighting game where you control 3 types of monkey at a time. Each monkey has their own combos, and it is up to you to figure out what combos work best for you. I was incredibly lucky to find a 3 note combo for 3 monkeys - this meant I could attack nearly double speed to my opponents. After every match you will get a new monkey on your roster. Once you figure out a combo and can do it reliably, start attacking people above you rank for quicker leveling up. Each level up gives you a new rank and hat you can equip. Should take you around an hour, it crashed a couple times for me but nothing was lost from it.

Buggy at times, however i enjoy the game too much to care, please add gibbons and other apes, aswell as more features game is goated
Not recommended Jul 26, 2026
it's neat and all, but as a sokpop game it faces the more common issues of being too short, while also being juuuust on the other side of 'annoying to figure out'. it's not complex enough to be worthy of recommendation when it comes with a price tag greater than $free.
Recommended Aug 23, 2023
The ranks and levels in this game make absolutely no sense. I'd win matches with all apes still up and loses a level on one of them, and other times get immediately rolled and somehow gain levels. Most of the time when I won a match I'd get the points it told me I would. But there were times where I'd win a match, get told that I won more points than I should have, but actually lose points instead. As for strategy, just pick a team that can fit the most actions into a single command and just spam it until victory. Overall, don't get this game for its own sake, but check it out if you get as part of a larger bundle.
