Well, you’re about to find out! Microsoft apparently released a new app a few days ago called Music Quiz. The name says quit it. In the game you can choose between a ‘mega mix‘, which uses your whole collection, and ‘custom mix‘ which enables you to choose an artist, playlist or genre. Of course there is a difficulty setting, you can either select normal or hardcore.
There are a few different types of questions according to the learn to play-guide:
- Listen to a music clip and identify the song’s title, artist or album.
- Watch as the album art is slowly revealed and guess the album’s name or artist.
- Pick the song or album that doesn’t have something in common with the others
The faster you can answer each question, the more points you will get. Use the hint button if you get stuck.
It’s interesting that although we don’t have an open app store, Microsoft provides its users every once in a while a new app. I wonder how this process goes. Is there someone responsible for providing new apps to the Marketplace or do they just make new ones whenever someone gets a good idea?
Beneath you find a gallery with some images you’ll also find in the Marketplace under the apps-section.
