About Rockmore – A Doodle Game by Google
Doodle Rockmore places you alongside Clara Rockmore to explore the theremin. This electronic instrument reacts to hand motion and produces ethereal tones. You guide a cursor over a digital interface to mimic those sweeping gestures. Bright markers show where each note sits.
Moving the cursor feels like reaching for notes in empty space. Early levels feature simple melodies with limited tones. Later stages expand the scale and pick up speed to challenge your timing and control.
Doodle Rockmore teaches basics of theremin playing and makes each session engaging. Each melody links to a bit about Clara Rockmore or the instrument itself. The blend of play and quick tidbits stands out among other Google Doodles. You leave with fresh respect for those haunting tones.
