Join the rhythmic world of DRUMBEAT Quest as you battle to save your community from the darkness. Align your rhythm to the beat of your environment and use your drum to meet the challenges ahead. Will you become the new Sensei and rekindle the Beacons of Hope?

Test your coordination as you build your rhythm arsenal to battle monsters. Collect coins and noxious plants to upgrade your powers, or strengthen your community.

From Holyoake comes the world’s first rhythm-based adventure game for social and emotional learning that incorporates the latest neuroscience on rhythm and regulation. A musical game designed for young people that examines a wide range of social issues in a fun context.

DRUMBEAT Quest is designed to be used in both individual and group applications with discussions following each round of game play.
