HOW TO PLAY

In the beginning, it's as easy as pie!

* Simply tap on the moving playing cards listen to wild animal sounds and find matches with the same sound!
* Whoever finds a match can listen to the animal sound in its entirety, look at brilliant animal photos and read exciting information about every animal.

Slowly, it gets a little more difficult:

* The number of playing cards increases, they move about and the allotted time gets shorter and shorter!
* Now you have to listen closely, keeping the playing cards within view and making sure to tap on them quickly.

Things really start to warm up at the most difficult level:

* Now, it's not only about finding matching sounds more quickly, now the object is to find matching pairs by identifying two sounds from the same species of wild animal, which may or may not sound identical. Just the thing for trained ears and skilled players!

Please note:

* All wild animal sounds that are used in the wildTunes game are available for iPhone at iTunes.
