ALL IS SHAPEZ — A RHYTHM HEIST

Hit the beat. Build a band. Steal every last shape.

All Is Shapez is a stylish rhythm incremental. Tap along to the music to steal shapes, hire musicians, write their parts on a 16-step sequencer and watch the track grow from a lonely kick drum into a full live band. Then take that band on tour.

▶ PLAY THE BEAT

Rings close in on the shape — hit them on time. White rings land on the beat, red "&" rings land between beats, gold rings must be held. Keep the combo alive to hype the band; fill the HEAT meter to trigger FEVER.

▶ WRITE THE GROOVE

Every musician plays their own 16-step pattern. Kick, hi-hat, snare, bass and keys all follow the song's chords, accent themselves and play fills on their own — you decide where the notes go. A live GROOVE RANK (S to D) tells you exactly what works ("BASS LOCKS WITH KICK") and what doesn't ("KEYS MASHING"), and the better it sounds, the more it pays.

▶ SHADOW AMBUSH

Shadows sneak across the screen. Catch one and it challenges you to a call-and-response duel: listen to its rhythm, then play it back. Beat it and... HOLD UP! Talk to it. Read its personality, pick the right words, and it might just join your band.

▶ HIT THE ROAD

Book gigs from a backalley basement to the ALL IS SHAPEZ ARENA. Each gig is a full song on a tougher chart, judged on a Persona-style results screen. Fans you win boost your income forever — then the band hits the road and starts the climb again, stronger.
