Gameplay

The game is played on a mobile device held vertically. The player drums on monkeys to control them, with different patterns for moving and attacking. Consistently moving builds "mojo" which increases the player's power. Enemy monkeys attack and the player must strategize to avoid being overrun.

The pattern tapped on the screen specifies the action and the objects tapped on specify what performs the action. The player continuously drums on things in the jungle in order to play the game. Designer Trevor Stricker has called this a "Rhythmic Grammar".

Reception

The game has been praised for pushing the breadth and scope of rhythm games. Chief comparisons have been to Patapon or Rhythm Heaven. It has been criticized for difficulty. The game received generally positive reviews. 148 Apps praised the "goofy concept" in a 4/5 review. Apple'N'Apps cited the "unique experience" in a 9/10 review. Indie Gems called it an interesting mix of rhythm and RTS in a 9/10 review.
