Included free in every plan

The Practice Arcade.

Nine practice games built into the student app — note reading, rhythm, ears, chords, scales — every one drilling what the teacher assigns. And if games aren't your studio's style, one switch turns the whole layer off.

All 9 games in every plan · Optional per studio · Never paywalled
Nine games. Zero extra cost.

Real musicianship, disguised as an arcade.

No candy-matching, no filler. Every game drills a fundamental in five focused minutes — the stuff teachers assign anyway, finally in a form students choose on their own.

🎯

Note Quest

Name notes on the staff before the clock does — plus chord-match modes for reading stacks, not just single notes.

🎼

Staff Sprint

A sight-reading speed ladder: treble, then bass, then the grand staff. Each rung a little faster than the last.

🥁

Rhythm Rush

Notes stream toward the hit zone — tap them on the beat. Note values stop being math and become muscle memory.

🐸

Leap Frog

Interval training every way it matters: by ear, on keys, on frets, and on the staff.

🎧

Soundcheck

An ear-training ladder where every question is heard, never seen. Ears first, eyes later.

⛰️

Chord Mountain

Open chords at base camp. By the summit, they're naming any movable shape at any fret.

🧭

Scale Explorer

Scale box shapes up and down the neck, until the whole fretboard feels like home turf.

📆

Daily Mix Daily

One scored 12-round set a day, mixing every skill. The star history doubles as a play calendar — a streak you can see.

🌍

World Tour Flagship campaign

Twelve worlds, eight gigs each — 96 hand-tuned levels. Your student's own 3D avatar takes the stage at ever-bigger venues, from the garage to the stadium — and when the tour's done, an infinite Encore keeps the lights on.

The progression layer

Games get them in. Progress keeps them practicing.

Around the arcade sits a full progression system — the same loop that keeps kids grinding in their favorite games, pointed at scales instead.

XP & levels

Every practice session, quest and game run earns XP. Levels make momentum visible.

🔥

Streaks & freezes

Consecutive practice days build a streak. Freezes forgive a sick day without killing the run.

🗺️

Weekly quests

Missions from the teacher or auto-generated. "Three clean run-throughs" beats "go practice."

🏅

Badges

Milestones worth bragging about, earned the honest way.

🪙

Coins & the streak shop

Practice earns coins; coins buy streak freezes and cosmetics. A tidy little economy.

🏆

Leaderboards

Studio-level boards for the students who thrive on friendly competition.

🕺

3D rockstar avatar

A customizable rockstar that levels up alongside them — and takes the stage in World Tour.

🌳

Skill-tree progress map

Every skill unlocked, mapped — visible to the student, the parent, and the teacher.

The fine print, up front

Optional. Free. Off-switch included.

Gamification is a layer on top of Methodica, not the foundation. The foundation is a stable, mobile-first studio platform — and it stands on its own.

Optional

Some owners don't believe in gamification. Fair enough — Methodica never argues. The platform is complete without a single game, and nothing else depends on the game layer.

Free

All nine games and the full progression layer ship in every plan, Solo included. Never paywalled, never an upsell, never a "premium arcade" tier.

One switch

Flip one toggle in studio settings and the entire game layer disappears. Students get a clean studio app: scheduling, practice log, materials, messaging, billing.

Studio settings → one switch. That's the whole rollback plan.

For the grown-ups

The arcade works for your teachers, not around them.

These aren't a separate app the studio can't see into. The games drill the same skills that live on the lesson plan, and everything reports back.

Teachers

Assign it, then watch it land

  • Games reinforce what you assign — same skills, same songs, same graph
  • Every session flows to your dashboard: who played, what, and where they got stuck
  • Walk into the lesson already knowing what the week looked like
Owners

Engagement is retention

  • Students who open the app daily don't quietly drift away
  • Practice momentum across the whole roster, at a glance
  • Not your studio's style? Flip the switch and keep everything else
