Play a Hitster-style music quiz online, without cards
Hitster online is not a thing you can buy as an app, but the game is easy to play digitally: one phone, a deck of songs and a timeline to fill. Hitify runs it in your browser.
Free to try. Log in with an email code, no password and no app to install.
You hear a short preview of a song and decide where it belongs on your timeline, older or younger than the songs you already hold. Get it right and the timeline grows. The first player to reach the target wins. That is the whole idea, and it works as well on a screen as on printed cards.
There is no online multiplayer: one phone moves around the table, which keeps it a party game instead of a screen per person. Pick a popular deck or turn your own playlist into one, and you can start in about a minute.

Listen and place
Hear a 30 second preview and place the song on your timeline. Right answers grow your timeline, the first to fill it wins.
The timeline in one look
Every player builds a timeline of songs in release order. You never see the year of the new song: you listen, then decide where it fits between the songs you already placed.
What you get
One phone, whole group
The phone goes from hand to hand. Nobody needs their own device or an account.
Real music
Songs play as 30 second previews, enough to recognise a chorus and argue about the year.

Frequently asked questions
Can I play Hitster online without the cards?
The official Hitster is a physical card game, so there is no online version of it without the box. What you can do is play the same kind of game digitally: Hitify turns any deck of songs into a timeline game that runs on your phone, no cards needed.
Is Hitify the same as Hitster?
No. Hitify is an independent game and is not affiliated with Hitster or Jumbo. It follows the same well known idea of placing songs on a timeline, with its own decks.
Is it free?
Yes, you can play popular public decks for free after logging in with an email code. Making your own deck from a playlist is free for the first 100 cards.
How many people can play?
As many as fit around one phone. You add every player by name and the phone is passed on after each turn.
Which music do I hear?
Each card plays a 30 second preview of the real song, so you recognise it by the chorus and not by a description.
