Swagbucks Games Gets A Tune Up

Posted by on Wed, March 28th, 2012 at 11:00 am

Every week, I sweat it out here at my desk while I try to give you a good score to beat in a different Swagbucks Game. This week, though, I felt no pressure – just peace and calm while I played Music Catch, lazily collecting notes as serene music played in the background. After all, the concept of the game is simple, and the gameplay is almost hypnotic:

The more you play, the more shapes, songs and patterns you can unlock. To keep it simple for the purposes of my challenge, I only played one round, so you have to beat my first round score with your own first round score. We’ll know if you did the first round or not by your screenshot, which should look like this – here’s my score:

If you beat my score, take a screenshot of your better score and post it to Twitter with the hashtag #SBGames and your Swag Name – three of you will get hooked up with 100 Swag Bucks each!

Good luck, and enjoy!
