The game starts with an animated intro, here the player is leaving home to go to work with the band

The game's menu consists of five locations on the road to success. The tunnel exits the game and the cow just moos.

Game options

Hiring band members. After selecting an instrument The game shows icons for each potential band member who will come and audition

Hiring band members. After hearing a potential band member audition the player decides whether to hire them or not

When the band is complete the player gives them a catchy name

The rehearsal rooms. Standard hotspots here are the camera to take a band snap, the picture on the wall returns to the menu, the door leads to the next phase and the smiley face which is the help icon

Songs are constructed by placing sections from he five supplied songs into the grid. Note the option to print music in the lower right, nice touch.

A completed composition is being played through. The band members bob about while it is playing - except for the drummer because I forgot to give him anything to do

After hearing the composition play through it was clear that the lead singer wasn't good enough for this masterpiece so she was replaced

The completed song has to be saved and named before the player can progress to the recording studio

The recording studio. In the lower left are controls for volume and balance while in the lower right are controls for adding additional sounds

Now that the song has been engineered and recorded, a process that can take many iterations, the player gives the OK for a live performance

The concert is not interactive. There are shots of the animated audience mixed with close up and distance shots of the band as the song plays

After the concert the player's efforts are scored by means of a chart rating. From here the player can repeat the process with a new band or re-engineer this one.
