A Melody Called Home

Martin, the swallow, lost his memory. The only things he remembers are distant melodies that are somehow connected to a scene he has passed. Help Martin to remind the melodies and find the way back home. Listen quietly and then try to rebuild the notes you heard on the hexagonal tiles. You can only fly to a tile that is connected to the tile you're in. If you notice you picked a wrong tile, you can undo your steps by klicking the rewind button. If you think you are right, press the Play button. When you are successful, you'll hear the full melody again and proceed to the next level. The other buttons are explained in the "Help" menu. Different scenes have different sound themes and the complexity and length of the melodies increase level by level.
