Trombone Champ

Trombone Champ is a goofy motion-control rhythm game in which players move their controllers to slide a cursor up and down the side of the screen and hold a button to "toot", trying to hit as many oncoming notes as possible. There are many different songs to choose from, with each having its own star difficulty rating. While playing a song, points are awarded based on how close the players' cursors are to each oncoming note that they are playing. At the end of the song, a letter grade (F, D, C, B, A, S) is awarded based on how many points were scored. Up to four players locally can play together, with all of their cursors appearing on the screen at once.

Playing levels also awards "toots" which can be spent in a shop to buy random packs of trading cards. There are fifty unique trading cards in total to collect, and duplicates can be turned into "turds", which can be reconstructed into cards of the player's choice if enough turds are collected. The game has a theme of "baboons" throughout it, featuring songs, cards, credits, a cutscene, and graphics related to the primates. There is also a menu option called "Baboon" which leads the player to a locked hatch for which they need to complete a certain objective to open.
