What is AudioSurf?

A music-driven puzzle racer that turns songs from your collection into tracks shaped and paced by the audio. You move along each track, cluster blocks of the same color for points, and compare scores on online leaderboards for each song.

For you if...

  • +you like casual, score-focused arcade play
  • +you enjoy choosing your own songs for each ride

Not for you if...

  • you prefer fixed tracks over music-generated ones
  • you want racing without color-matching puzzles

What players say

96% of 11,106 reviews are positive

Players praise how the generated tracks follow their songs and find the game easy to pick up. Some say the gameplay grows repetitive and wish they could use streaming music instead of local files.
