SongTrivia2: daily music game

SongTrivia2 is a free music trivia site built around guessing songs from short audio clips, either alone or against other players in real time. Alongside the quiz, it runs Wordzic, a daily Wordle-style game where the answer is a music-related word, and Harmonies, a Connections-style puzzle where you group 16 musical elements into four themed sets. The whole site runs in the browser with no downloads or account required to start a round.

What is SongTrivia2?

The core of SongTrivia2 is the solo Music Quiz: you pick a category such as a decade, a genre like rock, pop, country, or rap, or a famous artist, then answer five song-identification questions built from audio clips. Each correct answer links out to Spotify or Deezer so you can hear the full track, and your score after each game feeds a leaderboard where you compete with players around the world. There is also a real-time Multiplayer mode where up to 100 players can join a game and race to identify both song titles and artists, which is a step beyond the single-player format most music guessing games stick to.

What separates SongTrivia2 from a single-purpose music game is that it bundles several distinct formats under one site. Wordzic is its own daily word game: the target is a music-related word, such as an artist name, band name, song title, album name, or music term, four to eight letters long, and you get six chances to guess it, with a streak counter, achievements, and social sharing once you finish. Harmonies works differently again: inspired by the New York Times' Connections, it asks you to sort 16 musical elements, which can be song titles, artist names, instruments, or genres, into four groups of four that share a common theme, with no time limit. The site also lists more modes as coming soon, including Heardzic, an intro-focused song recognition game, and Crosszic, a music crossword puzzle.

The site's about section says it introduced its new gaming platform in 2024. It describes itself as completely free, with no downloads, no subscriptions, and no hidden fees, and its quiz draws from a library of over 10,000 curated tracks spanning genres. The interface is available in nine languages, including English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Turkish, Ukrainian, and Polish. Harmonies offers an optional account for saving scores and achievements, but you can play without one.

The overall feel is closer to a small music-trivia arcade than a single daily puzzle: you can drop into a five-question quiz round whenever you want, chase a Wordzic streak once a day, sort a Harmonies board at your own pace, or jump into a multiplayer room with friends.

Tips and strategy

In the solo Music Quiz, pick a category you know well, like a decade or genre you grew up on, since the quiz draws its clips from that pool.
Listen for instrumentation and production style in the audio clip, not just the vocals, since short clips may not reach a recognizable chorus.
For Wordzic, remember the answer can be four to eight letters and may be an artist, band, song, album, or music term, so start with a common music word to narrow down likely letters.
Keep an eye on your Wordzic streak counter and play at the same time each day so you do not lose progress.
In Harmonies, lock in the most specific or unusual grouping first, since obvious-looking themes can overlap across two groups.
If you are playing Multiplayer with friends, agree on a category ahead of time so everyone is guessing from a similar pool of songs.
