  Riddim Ribbon featuring The Black Eyed Peas is the first installment in Tapulous' series of music games, succeeded by Riddim Ribbon Free. It features three tracks by The Black Eyed Peas plus more tracks that can be purchased from Apple's in-app purchase. Previously Tapulous had created games in the Tap Tap series including Tap Tap Revenge, Tap Tap Revenge 2 and Tap Tap Revenge 3.
  
  ## Gameplay
  
  In Riddim Ribbon the player plays the part of a DJ and guides a spinning marble down a ribbon to try to create remixes in songs. The player must follow the ribbon to keep gaining points. If the player falls off of the ribbon they lose points and their streak. Every level is harder to play with more turns, and jumps.
  
  Riddim Ribbon allows players to create their own remixes. At each checkpoint a player can decide which direction to turn and can choose a different remix.
  
  Riddim Ribbon also allows players to challenge their friends on the remixes they make to see who can get a better score.
  
  Riddim Ribbon is played by moving the iPod Touch or iPhone to turn the rolling marble and keep it on track.
  
  ## Soundtracks
  
  Riddim Ribbon features three artists; Tiesto, The Black Eyed peas and Benny Benassi. Tapulous has also announced that they expect to have more music soon.
  
  Black Eyed Peas helped create the entire game. On the day it was released will.i.am a rapper and DJ for Black Eyed Peas said "I am so excited about this game... it makes you re-think the concept of playing a song... It makes you re-think the remix..."
