A collecting game in which monsters on islands each sing a part of a song, and the song grows as more are bred. The record's entry for the late revival: it was a modest hit in 2013, then in late 2022 a TikTok wave built around a boxy monster called the Wubbox sent a ten-year-old game back to the top of the download charts and made its songs a meme in their own right.
The record notes that the game's monsters are instruments with faces, and that the faces are why a decade-old app can trend among people who were toddlers at its launch.
Correction: the game never went away and never needed relaunching. The record's peak year is 2022 because that is when the internet noticed it, not when the studio did anything.
Someone remembers playing it on a tablet in 2013 and returning in 2022 to find their island still singing. The record files it under things that waited.
A TikTok in November 2022 of a large boxy monster being powered up while its island's song builds, with several million views and a comment asking whether the game was new. The record notes the game was ten.
