How to Play SongLeap?
🧠 Why SongLeap?
The name SongLeap comes from the idea of “leaping” — jumping from clue to clue until you uncover the song title. Every wrong guess isn’t a failure — it’s a leap forward: each attempt unlocks new hints that bring you closer to the right answer.
Plus, in SongLeap, we call each new day a “leap” — every day is a fresh musical challenge. A different track, a new opportunity to test your musical memory and discover something great.
SongLeap is a daily music game where your goal is to guess the title of a song. Each day features one new song for all players around the world. You’ll have 6 tries to guess the correct title.
With every wrong guess, you’ll receive progressive hints to guide you — including short audio clips, the artist’s name, part of the lyrics, the release year, or the album it came from.
🎨 Colors that sing
Every time you try a song title in SongLeap, the game checks your guess letter by letter and gives you a visual response. But it’s not just about the letters — their positions matter too.
- M Green: Nailed it! The letter is in the title and in the right spot.
- O Yellow: Close! The letter is in the title, but in a different position.
- Y Gray: Nope — this letter isn’t part of the title at all.
🎬 A musical example
Let’s say the hidden song title is IMAGINE and you start with the guess:
- The N and E turn yellow — they’re in the title, just not in those spots.
Then you try:
- The I and M are now green — perfect match!
- The E remains yellow — it’s still out of place.
Your mission is to get all the letters green, which means you’ve guessed the exact title.
♻️ What if there are repeated letters?
Sometimes, a song title may include repeated letters. In those cases, each letter is evaluated separately, and more accurate guesses are prioritized.
For example, if the title is GUESS and you guess:
- The first S turns yellow (right letter, wrong spot).
- The second S turns green (right letter, right place).
If you try a guess with only one S, like:
— that S will turn green if it’s correctly placed. But the game won’t tell you that there’s another S still hidden — you’ll need another leap to figure it out.
