Nurbits

Nurbits is a music puzzle game in which you act as a sound engineer for a robot band. You repair the wiring in each robot’s brain by connecting microchips that send and receive signals like neurons. Each chip has a threshold: when it receives enough stimulation from other chips, it fires and plays a note. You connect the right notes and inhibit the wrong ones to solve each puzzle, which forms a phrase in the song. Complete every puzzle so the band can play the full song.

Campaign mode

The campaign has over 50 puzzles that make up four original songs, each in a distinct musical style: chiptune, rock, hip-hop and electronic dance music. As you progress through the robot music industry, you perform in four venues: the basement, small club, arena and space station. The puzzles use mechanics based on real neuroscience concepts.

Creative mode

Create and share songs and puzzles, customize your robot band, and use the same tools as the game designers to turn music into puzzles. You can compose music, add effects and adjust song parameters using 21 instrument sounds, including guitar, bass, drums and synths. The robot editor lets you make custom robots for your band. Upload your creations, or download other players’ songs to play and remix them.
