Heardle popularised the audio-clip format before it was pulled from the market, and several games have continued the same idea with their own song libraries.

Audio clips versus lyrics

Audio-clip games play a fragment of a song, often starting under a second long, and extend it after each wrong guess. Lyric-based games instead show a redacted line of text, which works even for players listening without sound.

Why song libraries vary between games

Licensing a song library is the main constraint on this theme, so games differ mostly in which decade, genre or region their daily picks are drawn from rather than in mechanic. A game built around a narrower catalogue can commit to deeper cuts than one trying to cover every era at once.

Do music games work without sound?

Lyric-based games do, since the clue is text; audio-clip games need sound to play as intended.
