Don't Fret

About the Game

THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG WITH THIS SCHOOL

You’ve been taken to Harmonic Heights, a music school hiding a dark secret.

Play as Fret, a sentient guitar trapped inside. Hide. Distract. Dodge. Outsmart what hunts you, and survive long enough to uncover the truth.

SURVIVAL IS ABOUT CONTROL

Enemies react to noise, including yours

• Break line of sight to stay hidden

• Use objects and sound as decoys

• Dodge and evade when cornered

• Stun enemies with your evolving guitar tuner

MUSIC IS BUILT INTO EVERYTHING

Music is how the world works.

• Solve piano, guitar, harp and other musical puzzles

• Unlock new paths using memory devices

• Complete puzzles while nearby threats force you to act fast

WHAT MAKES DON’T FRET DIFFERENT?

• Stealth comes first. Dodge enemies, stay out of sight, and don't get caught by them.

• The guitar tuner is your main tool. Use it to read danger, solve puzzles, stun enemies, and adapt as the game progresses.

• Every enemy plays differently. Learning how they behave is how you survive.

• Musical puzzles block your path and have to be solved to move forward.

• Memories unlock new paths and help you understand why you’re here.
