Piano Tiles
Tap the dark tiles and play Für Elise, Ode to Joy and more. Don't touch the white ones.
About Piano Tiles
A free piano tiles game in your browser. Tap the dark tile in the bottom row and every tap plays the next note of a famous melody, from Beethoven's Für Elise and Ode to Joy to Canon in D and Jingle Bells. Arcade mode speeds up until you miss, Classic times you over 50 tiles and Zen gives you 30 seconds to tap as many as you can. Hit a white tile and the song stops.
How to play Piano Tiles
- Pick a mode and a song, then press Play.
- Tap the dark tile in the bottom row (outlined in green). Each tap plays the next note of the song.
- Never tap a white tile. In Arcade, don't let a dark tile slide off the bottom either.
- Arcade gets faster as you go. Classic is a 50-tile race. Zen counts tiles in 30 seconds.
Tips and strategy
- On a computer, rest four fingers on D F J K. It's far faster than a mouse.
- Look one row ahead, not at the tile you're tapping.
- In Arcade, a steady rhythm beats frantic speed.
