About Chime
✦ AI summary
Place blocks to complete quads and fill the grid while remixing music from artists like Moby and Orbital in real-time—all while supporting charity with your purchase. This innovative puzzle game lets you manipulate the soundtrack itself as you play, creating a unique fusion of music and gameplay across six handcrafted levels.
A Zoë Mode production for the video game charity initiative OneBigGame, Chime pits gamers against the melody in an all-new puzzle experience. Place blocks against the clock,
complete solid quads and try to cover the whole playing surface, all the while remixing and embellishing pieces by musicians from across the planet. And you get to feel good about yourself,
too: The console version of Chime was originally developed for OneBigGame with all the developer’s royalties going to Charity for sales up to June 2010, and Zoe Mode will continue to donate a proportion of its royalties (equivalent to 5% of purchase price) for sales of the Steam version. OneBigGame always aims to donate a minimum of 80% of all donations to its charity partners Save the Children and the Starlight Children's foundation.

404: Rhythm gameplay not found.1 found this helpful
Chime is one of those rare puzzle games that sneaks up on you — I sat down for what I thought would be a quick session and looked up two hours later. The core mechanic, covering a grid with pentomino-style pieces while a beat sweeps across the board, is deceptively simple but genuinely satisfying, and the way your performance shapes the music gives it a feedback loop that's hard to put down. The soundtrack is the real star here: tracks like the Philip Glass opener set a meditative tone that makes this a perfect wind-down game after a long day. My only real complaint is that six songs just isn't enough — the moment you start craving more variety, the game ends before it begins. Still, for the price it goes on sale for, it's an easy recommendation for anyone who loves Tetris-style games and wants something a little more zen.1 found this helpful

Simple but fun.Some excellent music too.
I have loved this game for a long time. I can play it for hours in total bliss. I would love even more if it were Steam deck compatible! It MEGA isn't. Throws an error and won't even open. But on PC it's still a fave!
A solid music puzzle game. It's rather short, but I liked the experience.
