FNF TAILS.EXE

About FNF TAILS.EXE

FNF TAILS.EXE is a rhythm mod built on the Friday Night Funkin' template, and it puts Boyfriend up against a corrupted version of Tails. The two-tailed fox has been rewritten by a virus into his EXE form and sides with the equally corrupted Sonic, which gives the mod a horror slant rather than the cartoon tone of the original game. The play itself is pure note matching: coloured arrows scroll towards a marker line, you press each one as it arrives, and every clean hit pushes the health bar towards your side while missed notes hand ground back to your rival. Rounds are short, so a failed song can be restarted straight away, and the mod also carries a test area where you can trigger the characters' voice samples and put together a tune of your own.

How to Play FNF TAILS.EXE

Use the arrow keys, or WASD if you prefer, to hit notes as they reach the line at the top of your lane. Long notes need the key held rather than tapped. Enter and the arrow keys move you through the song select. On a phone or tablet, tap the arrows drawn on screen instead of using a keyboard.

Tips and Tricks

• Watch the arrows a little way below the marker line rather than staring at the line itself, so your hands have time to move before the note arrives.
• Rest your fingers on all four keys from the start instead of chasing arrows one at a time; the harder sections come in fast four-lane patterns.
• Listen to the drums rather than the vocals when the melody gets busy, since the note timing follows the beat more closely than the singing.
• If a particular run of notes keeps breaking your streak, replay the song from the beginning a few times so the pattern becomes muscle memory, rather than pushing on with a low health bar.

Who am I singing against?

Is there anything to do besides the songs?

Yes, there is a test area where you can set off the characters' voice clips and arrange your own short tune.
