GEAR × GIRLS × BEAT
GEAR × GIRLS × BEAT (GGB) is a rhythm game where you hit notes flowing in from the right with two buttons, upper and lower, in time with the song. It is free, needs no sign-up, and runs in the browser on PCs and phones.
How to play
- Pick a song and a difficulty (NORMAL or HARD), then press START.
- Notes flow in from the right. Hit notes on the upper lane with the upper button and notes on the lower lane with the lower button, the moment they overlap the judgment ring.
- Keep holding a hold note until it ends. For fast runs, alternate two fingers.
- When you finish the song, you get a rank from S to D based on your score.

Judgments and life
Each hit is judged PERFECT, GREAT, or GOOD, from the smallest timing gap to the largest. A note that passes without a hit is a MISS. Every MISS takes away life, and when life reaches 0 the song ends as FAILED. A PERFECT restores a little life.

Are my records saved?
Your best score and rank for each song and difficulty, and your favorite songs, are saved in this browser. Nothing is sent to a server, so they are not shared with other devices or browsers.
What if the sound and my taps feel out of sync?
The game subtracts the audio delay your device reports. Bluetooth earphones add a large delay and often feel off, so play with wired earphones or the device's speaker.
