For collaborations, only the lead artist\u2019s<\/strong> name is required.<\/p>\nGREEN<\/strong> – Group or solo artist.<\/strong> Say out loud whether the song is performed by a solo artist or a group.

Place a deck of cards<\/strong> on the table with the QR codes facing up. Give a reveal sleeve<\/strong> to each team.<\/p>\n Open the HITSTER<\/strong> app on your mobile phone.<\/p>\n Choose a player to be the DJ<\/strong>. They will scan the cards, but they can also take part in the game. Keep the same DJ for the whole game or switch players, you decide!<\/p>\n To determine who goes first, each team takes a random card from the deck and places it face-up in front of them so the year visible. This is the first card in your team\u2019s timeline<\/strong>. The team with the earliest year goes first.<\/strong><\/p>\n Note:<\/strong> If you\u2019re the DJ, avoid wearing a smartwatch (such as an Apple Watch), as it may display song information on the screen.<\/p>\n * When storing the game in the box, make sure the microphone spring is not compressed. This will help keep it in good condition.[\/nectar_highlighted_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” class=”neon-container” advanced_gradient_angle=”0″ overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” gradient_type=”default” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” advanced_gradient_angle=”0″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” animation_type=”default” enable_animation=”true” animation=”fade-in-from-bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” gradient_type=”default” delay=”100″][nectar_highlighted_text color_type=”regular” text_color=”#f0286e” style=”full_text” highlight_expansion=”default”]\n You\u2019ll only hear a short clip of the song.<\/p>\n You can choose one of two playback options<\/strong> from the app\u2019s SETTINGS<\/strong> menu:<\/p>\n In addition to the playback options above, you can also choose how you want to listen to the songs:<\/p>\n If neither player presses the button, the DJ scans the next card and a new round begins.[\/nectar_highlighted_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” advanced_gradient_angle=”0″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” gradient_type=”default” offset=”vc_hidden-xs”][image_with_animation image_url=”192498″ image_size=”medium” animation_type=”entrance” animation=”Fade In” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”center” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default”][nectar_highlighted_text color_type=”regular” text_color=”#f0286e” style=”full_text” highlight_expansion=”default”]\n Once the mic is in the air, the base will flash in different colours before stopping on one.
