Rhythm + voiceScream Meter is the simplest voice sound game you'll ever play — and somehow the most addictive. Many players find it works as a surprisingly effective calming game: after a big scream, the tension just melts away. All you need is a microphone and your lungs.
Click or tap the game area. Your browser will ask for microphone permission. Allow it — no audio is recorded or stored.
A 3-2-1 countdown gives you time to take a deep breath. Use it wisely — your lung capacity matters more than you think.
Give it everything you've got. The game tracks your peak volume in real time using the Web Audio API. The louder you are, the higher your score.
Your peak volume is converted to a percentage and matched to a rank. Hit the share button to challenge your friends — who can scream the loudest?
Your scream is measured on a logarithmic decibel scale — think of it as a sound test for your voice — then mapped to a percentage with an exponential curve. This means getting above 60% requires a genuinely loud scream, and 90%+ is reserved for the truly legendary.
Silence to Whisper. You're barely making a sound. Are you even trying?
Breathing doesn't countMurmur to Indoor Voice. Normal conversation level. Save this for libraries.
Your neighbors are safeConversation to Loud Talk. You're getting there. Enough to turn some heads in public.
Starting to get realShouting to Yelling. Now we're talking — or rather, screaming. Your vocal cords are working hard.
Neighbors are concernedRock Concert to Jet Engine. Seriously impressive. You're louder than most people can physically manage.
Top 5% of screamersLegendary Scream. Almost nobody reaches this tier. Your lungs are a force of nature.
Is this even possible?Distance matters. The closer your mouth is to the microphone, the more volume the sensor picks up. On a laptop, lean in. On mobile, hold it near your face.
A scream from the throat fades quickly. A scream from the diaphragm — deep breath, core muscles engaged — sustains volume over the full 5 seconds.
The game tracks your peak, but a sustained loud scream is more likely to hit a higher reading than a quick burst. Commit to the full 5 seconds.
A quiet room gives the mic a lower baseline, meaning your scream has more dynamic range to work with. Turn off fans, close windows, tell everyone to be quiet.
Scream Meter uses the Web Audio API to access your microphone and analyze audio input in real time. Your mic stream feeds into an AnalyserNode, which samples amplitude data at high frequency.
The raw RMS (root-mean-square) value is converted to a decibel scale, then mapped through a cubic curve. This logarithmic-then-exponential pipeline mimics how human hearing perceives loudness — small increases in volume at the top of the range require significantly more acoustic energy.
All processing happens entirely in your browser. No audio data is recorded, stored, or transmitted. The microphone stream never leaves your device.
Whether you think of it as a free relaxing game, a stress relief game, or just a fun sound test, Scream Meter offers a quick and satisfying way to release tension. Research suggests that controlled vocalization can reduce cortisol levels, which is why many players describe it as one of the best games for anxiety relief. It's the kind of relaxing game that works by letting you be loud instead of quiet — a paradox that makes it uniquely effective among depression games and mood-boosting tools.
No. The game only reads volume amplitude values from your microphone. No audio data is recorded, stored, or sent anywhere. Everything runs locally in your browser.
The scoring uses an exponential curve, so the higher you go, the exponentially harder it gets. Getting from 70% to 80% requires roughly twice the acoustic energy as going from 60% to 70%. Try getting closer to the mic and using your diaphragm.
Yes! Any device with a microphone and a modern browser works. Mobile phones actually tend to score slightly higher because you hold them closer to your face.
The game only measures volume — it doesn't care about the source. A clap, a horn, a drum, a dog bark — anything that makes sound will register. But your voice is usually the most powerful tool you have on hand.
Sustained screaming can strain your vocal cords. The 5-second limit keeps sessions short, but if you're doing many rounds, take breaks and stay hydrated. If anything hurts, stop immediately.
Paradoxically, yes. While the act of screaming isn't quiet, the stress relief you feel afterward is deeply calming. Many users describe Scream Meter as their favorite calming game precisely because it lets them release built-up tension in a safe, controlled way. It's the rare relaxing game that works through catharsis rather than quiet contemplation.
