London, UK, March 31 st 2011 – Today, Musiic Party: Rock the House, for the Nintendo Wii™ is available to pre-order ahead of its hotly anticipated UK debut on 29 th April 2011.
All wannabe rock stars can jam with their friends following the UK launch of Musiic Party: Rock the House without the need for additional peripherals. Featuring some of the greatest rock anthems and modern classics of all time, including Motorhead’s ‘Ace of Spades’ and Metro Station’s ‘Shake It’ you can strum the guitar or bass, or bang the drums by simply moving the Wii Remote & Nunchuk in time with the music. (And don’t worry lads; this is one wrist action your Mum can’t tell you off for...)
Developed by Independent Arts and published by dtp entertainment, Musiic Party: Rock the House combines the popular rhythm motion game play, cartoon style graphics, pumping bass lines and slick riffs with the motion based functionality and simplicity of the Wii platform to create a frenetic and entertaining gaming experience. With two kick-ass multi-player game modes you can jam with your friends or take them on in a head-to-head battle. Dare to go solo? With the story mode you can rise to the challenge of becoming your very own rock legend.
Rob Noble, from UK distributor PQube, commented “Musiic Party simplifies how we play rhythm games. Armed with nothing more than your trusty Wii Remote & Nunchuk, you and your friends can rock your socks off to Blink 182’s ‘All The Small Things’, marking a fantastic addition to the music-party game genre.”

Rock gods of all ages are invited to rock out to some of the greatest rock anthems ever laid down. The game includes tracks spanning over five decades, from the swinging 60s to the early noughties. This range of music includes modern classics and legendary anthems for gamers of all ages to enjoy. 30 rock tracks offering a wide selection of music and ensuring there is something for everyone’s taste.
Player modes:
Multiplayer mode - Musiic Party: Rock the House is a true multiplayer party game, and comes into its own when played with friends and family. The game includes two great multiplayer options for up to three people on the same machine, so you and your friends can feel like a real rock band. In the co-operative jam mode, up to three gamers can play the game simultaneously and experience that real rock band feeling. Musiic Party really does Rock the House, as all three players work hard to reach your respective musical Nirvanas, hitting the right cords to achieve the ultimate rock accolades. Riders are unfortunately not included!
Head to Head - In the two player head to head mode, you must battle against each other across a series of mini games and Musiic challenges. With the songs alternating between the players, you’ll be judged on accuracy, timing as well as a sprinkling of star dust. The player with the highest score at the end of the track wins.
Single Player - The story mode sees gamers treading the hard road from roadie to rock superstar, as you and your new band move from gig to gig, improving along the way, unlocking new songs, mini games, outfits and instruments. You must play through a series of gigs starting at a small flea pit in Liberty City before finishing off at a massive concert hall in Hollywood. Don’t just rest on your plectrum, as Musiic Party will challenge you to switch between the three instruments. After all, rock gods aren’t limited to just one instrument.
We advise you not to try crowd surfing though. Whilst air makes a fantastic guitar, it doesn’t make for a very good crowd!
