Song Master (Japan)

Song Master is a rhythm game released on the SNES in Japan. Gameplay focuses on players accurately pressing buttons in time with the music. Each song features a unique track, demanding quick reflexes and precision. Difficulty increases progressively through levels, with faster speeds and increasingly complex note patterns. The game typically utilizes the standard SNES controller buttons, requiring players to coordinate their fingers rhythmically for high scores. Some songs may require holding buttons for specific durations or rapidly pressing multiple buttons in quick succession. Beyond correct button presses, the game may also evaluate the precision of the timing, creating intense competition between playthroughs. Beyond traditional songs, Song Master might include electronic-style tracks, offering a diverse range of musical genres. Scoring is based on player accuracy and speed, combined with bonus elements such as combos and perfect sections. Player scores can be saved and compared against friends or other players.
