Scene It?: Music

Scene It?: Music is one of a series of games in the Scene It? series, this version of the game features questions based pop music and says it's 'Not Just For Music Buffs.' It can be played by two to four players or teams.

The box contains a folding game board, Reference cards, Trivia cards and Buzz cards together with four metal tokens; a guitar, headphones, piano and ghetto blaster.

The game is played on the standard Scene It? 'flex-time' game board so-called because of its novel feature, when there's not enough time/interest to play a full game it can be folded, thus reducing it's size so that a short game can be played. The player(s) must travel round the board to the 'Final Cut' area where they must answer an 'All Play To Win' challenge. If they are successful they win the game, if not they move to the outer Final Cut circle and must successfully answer three DVD challenge questions to win. It is possible for two players to answer an 'All Play To Win' question simultaneously, in this case the DVD Tiebreaker question/challenge is used. Such challenges can require the player(s) to get up and dance!

The game is played with two dice, a six sided die that determines how far the player moves and an eight sided die which determines the challenge the player will face. After the player has rolled both dice and moved their token they may have to complete a challenge, if successful they take another turn and continue to do so until they make an error or the category die shows 'buzz' - see below. Players move before they attempt a challenge and if they are on an 'Encore' space they move twice the number rolled, The challenges the player will face in their travels are determined by the eight sided die, they are;* 'My Play': this is a DVD challenge in which a scene is viewed a question is asked. Questions here can include video clips where the player is asked to identify the band or something related to band members. Other questions ask the players to put albums in order of their release or just give a release date for a song.

• 'All Play': this is a DVD challenge in which a scene is any player can answer. If two player's answer simultaneously then there is a DVD Tie Breaker option. There are two All Play symbols on the challenge die. Questions in this group include 'Name The Concert' in which a partially obscured newspaper cutting is slowly revealed, 'Name the Group From The Pictures' in which images are shown in a 'say-what-you-see' style question, 'Name The Artist Or Album' where an obscured album cover is slowly revealed.
• 'Buzz Card': If the category die shows 'buzz' the player selects a Buzz Card from the pack, follows the instructions and their turn ends.
• 'Trivia Challenge': Here another player draws a trivia Challenge card and reads the question. There are three categories of trivia question ''Take Three in which the p[layer must identify an artist or band based on three clues', 'Songs and Lyrics', and 'Pop Culture' each represented by a distinct symbol on the category die and on the card there is one question from each category on one side with the answers on the reverse.
• 'Players Choice': here the player selects a trivia card or DVD category of their choice.

The game also has a 'Party Play' mode during which it presents a series of questions for a large group to play by shouting out the answers, the board is not used in this mode. Typical Party Mode' questions are 'Name The Song', 'Name The Band', 'Add Images Together To Get A Band Name' etc, all questions are timed
