The World’s Most Interactive Music Game
In collaboration with Connecta, Ergonomidesign has developed the music game application Sonicspree for Microsoft Surface, with music supplied by Spotify. Sonicspree is one of a few official apps exclusively selected by Microsoft to demonstrate the potential of the new Surface technology at its launch at the renowned Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, January 2011.
The Sonicspree app really leverages on the benefits of this pioneering hardware. It is a seamless integration of traditional games with real dice into new technology, incorporating multi-user and massive multi-touch. Adding the Spotify music service offers the possibility of high-level personalization of the game as well as a high quality, limitless music experience.
Gather your friends around Surface (or play alone) and roll the real dice to start playing. You win by being the fastest in matching the song being played with its album cover. Use your own playlist or let the game choose from over 10 million songs in the Spotify library. Sonicspree is a truly engaging and social experience; loud and fun. Both for music experts and rookies.
The early version of Sonicspree has already generated a buzz in media and the user experience community. Fast Company magazine has listed it as one of the top “killer applications ” for Microsoft Surface. It has won the Microsoft .NET awards in 2009. The contest rewards inspirational solutions in cutting edge technology. The jury citations reads: "Ergonomidesign and Connecta have succeeded in creating a complete 360 experience that allows the analog world to meet the digital world. They have designed a social and musical multi-user experience that truly engages the user."
The two companies Ergonomidesign, one o the world’s top-ranking design consultancies and Connecta, a leading Swedish management and IT consulting firm, collaborated from early ideas to final solution, aiming to take the lead in developing extraordinary NUI-experiences (Natural User Interface).
