## What is Monster Chords?

Introducing Monster Chords, a new and one-of-a-kind way to learn the guitar! This app makes learning every chord a fun challenge, and it removes the tedium that can come with music learning by making it a game! Perfect for beginners of all ages,all you need is a guitar or ukulele! What's more, you can even create your own music through the Composer Mode!

Shy, music-loving monsters roam the dark forest, and would like nothing more than to hear some good music. Play the right chords in time with the music to draw them out of hiding. Each time you play the correct chord, the monsters move closer towards your campfire. If you make a mistake, they will go back into hiding. 

Jam along to classic songs like "London Bridge Is Falling Down", "Mary Had A Little Lamb", "LadyBird", "I'm A Little Teapot", and get in the groove with over 20 original modern compositions.

Monster Chords also introduces the Composer Mode, a simple, user-friendly tool that lets you create your own songs. You only need to choose the tempo (or beats per minute) and drag and drop chords to start making your own groove.  Upload your own songs and share them with your friends, or play songs created by other users!

Monster Chords ranks chord playing with a simple and friendly star rating, allowing you to practice and improve your guitar skills over time. It also includes a guitar tuner minigame that you can play in either timed or easy mode.

With 50 challenging levels, kids will absolutely love this approach to learn chords, and will keep coming back for more practice. Levels/songs will be added every month, so there will be lots of new content to look forward to.

### 2/5 — What is going on???

*2024-12-28*

I used to use this app all the time on a different device but then my brother threw my ukulele down the stairs so I couldn’t use it anymore. I  got a new ukelele recently, and wanted to use the app to learn how to play again as soon as I open the app, it shows the loading screen and then it kicks me out of the app. I’ve tried on my phone and on iPad that I used to use this app for, neither of them work. They both kicked me out. I’ve tried deleting the app and getting it again. I’ve tried powering off and powering back on. It always doesn’t work. Please Fix!
