Frederic: The Resurrection of Music

You play Frederic Chopin, who has just mysteriously returned from the dead. Inspired by the Muses, Chopin must travel the world, facing enemies in many countries through musical battles.

Frederic: Resurrection of Music is a rhythm-based game, using the keyboard (or mouse) to simulate piano keys. Notes come down the screen and, at the right time, you must press the correct key to play the corresponding note (in the computer version, the game uses ASDF for white keys, and WER for black ones, but this is customizable; alternatively, or you can use your mouse to click on piano keys at the screen; touch screens are also supported). Get enough notes right and golden notes appear, which can be collected (using mouse clicks) for extra points. Also, if you are doing well, you can unleash a special attack against your opponents (using the space bar, by default). Between battles, the story is told in comic book style cutscenes.

All the music is based in Chopin's pieces (there are about a dozen of them), which were rearranged to match the style of your enemies (Reggae in Jamaica, Bollywood-style pop in India, etc.). There are four difficulty levels: easy, normal, hard and "Chopin".
