Trombone Champ is a humorous rhythm game with CCG elements. This is also an arcade simulator of playing the trombone. This title differs from other projects where you need to perform some actions in time with the music in that here you can play any notes at any time. This allows you to hear incorrectly played melodies and leads to all sorts of funny situations. A total of 20 famous melodies are available. Among them there are marches, hymns, classics, pop hits. To the beat, they need to press the right buttons in the right order. In case of an error, the final grade will be reduced. You can control the trombonist using a keyboard and mouse or a gamepad.
TC has its own plot and lore. The action takes place in a universe called the Thrombiveverse. The hero wants to become a trombone champion. He will also have to uncover the secrets of this world. As the character progresses, he unlocks cards that parody Hearthstone in their design. Only instead of fantasy creatures, they depict famous musicians and composers from different eras, and also add their comic biographical descriptions. Boosters with them are purchased using in-game currency called Toots. Money is earned during gameplay. There are 50 such cards in total. They are needed to gain access to various cosmetics. When you use them, you can unlock new musical instruments or skins for them. In addition to the story campaign, there is a free mode that allows you to improvise.
