Speed scores

Twenty seconds a question, and the faster you answer, the more you score. Who's the King of rock and roll? Three chords, no dithering.

The ramp

Hit singles first, then B-sides.

Five rounds of ten. The riffs get trickier.

Titles

From garage to glory.

When you finish, your score earns a title: Van broke down if you score nothing, Rock royalty if you get every question right.
