Quaver is a vertically scrolling rhythm game where you press keys in time with falling notes. Players can choose charts set to four keys or seven keys.
Each key mode has its own leaderboards, and players can compare scores and accuracy. Online rooms support competitive matches with up to 16 players.
The built-in editor lets players make charts for songs and share them with others. Players can also customize note skins and watch replays of their scores or other players’ runs.
Many supplied reviewers enjoy the rhythm gameplay and the range of community-made songs and charts, with some noting that the growing difficulty gives them room to improve. Players also praise the map editor and the ability to customize skins. Experiences vary: some find the strict timing and chart difficulty rewarding, while others criticize them.
