Music Master Chopin

Music Master Chopin is the first Polish music game prepared by Bloober Team and PC Project in cooperation with The Ministry of Culture and National Heritage.

Music Master Chopin gives the user the opportunity to perform the greatest works of Frédéric Chopin. The project consists of three parts: Classic, Rock and Pop.
