      GAME MODES 

      TEAM PLAY — Teams compete to earn points. The DJ draws a card, giving teams 60 seconds to pick a song. The first team ready gets priority. Both songs play, and the DJ chooses the best fit. Play continues until a team reaches the target score. Use "Scratch the Record" cards wisely to gain an advantage when behind.

      BAR PLAY — A DJ and MC lead the game. The MC draws a card, reads it aloud, and the DJ plays a sample. Players have 60 seconds to respond, with the DJ/MC selecting the winner. Play continues until someone reaches the target score. Use "Scratch the Record" cards strategically when trailing.

      VERSUS PLAY — Two players receive seven cards each. Players take turns challenging each other with card prompts. The opponent has 60 seconds to play a fitting song. If successful, they discard a card. If not, they keep the card. Wildcards can be used to disrupt the opponent’s gameplay. The first player to discard all cards wins.

      CUSTOM PLAY — Players set their own rules and mix different card types for unique gameplay. The game ends when custom winning conditions are met.
