Similar to other Guitar Hero games, a fret board is included; spheres race toward the bottom of the screen as you rock. The gamer must use amazing timing to hit the notes with slight variation. In Legend of Hawkings a green button replaces the whammy or strum bar, making playing the game less challenging for the simple. Guitar Hero franchised a large fan following of those playing Hit Me With Your Best Shot on beginner, who regularly display their achievements on youtube.
