Test Your Music Theory Knowledge

It's time to test your musical theory knowledge with this fun music puzzle game. You will be working to put all the tiles into their proper spot on the grid by dragging them and dropping them into place. You will want to use as little moves as possible in this game, which of course adds to the challenge. Now if you're sitting there thinking you're not a music pro, don't worry because you can still play the game. There is no need to have musical knowledge because you will be able to use the hints to help out.
