What is Frets on Fire?

Frets on Fire is a free rhythm game created by Unreal Voodoo and recognized at the Assembly 2006 competition. Players match scrolling note patterns to songs using a computer keyboard.

How do you play Frets on Fire without a guitar controller?

You hold the keyboard in a guitar-like position and use keys for the fret buttons and strum input. That keyboard design is the game's signature alternative to the plastic guitar controllers used by Guitar Hero.

Is Frets on Fire basically a Guitar Hero clone?

It clearly draws on the note highway and timing system popularized by Guitar Hero, but it was made as a free computer game by Unreal Voodoo. Its keyboard controls and community song support give it a different setup from the official console series.

What computer platforms support Frets on Fire?

The game was built for desktop systems including Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X. Because it is keyboard-driven, the 2006 game does not require a console guitar accessory.
