In order to prevent the other band from accomplishing their goals, a bench of weapons are available for use against the other band. As the two opposing teams compete, The Jazz Scats (a beatnik jazz band〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=AtariMania.com )〕〔Prince, Suzan D. "Blips: The Sound of Music." ''Video Games'' Magazine. Vol.2, No.2.

In ''Coco-Notes'' (also published by CBS Software〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=RF Generation )〕), the player is stranded on Coco-Note Isle where he must fish for musical notes in the form of coconuts〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=Atari8.info )〕 and tunes in the form of fish. The player may then use these notes and tunes to create melodies in a free form manner. The game also features a quiz minigame where The Jazz Scats (a group of castaway hipsters) perform the first half of a jazz song and the player must then complete the song before Mr. Cool Clam (a square note-eating clam) eats the song.〔
''Movie Musical Madness'' is a 1-player〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=Gamebase 64 ) 〕 music management game in which the player takes the role of a musical film director as he attempts to create an appropriate score for, select an appropriate plot for, and direct the actions of his group of actors, The Jazz Scats.
