The Nightingale

Le rossignol chante pour les enfants de l'empereur afin de ne bien dormir.

'You have rewarded me,' said the nightingale. 'I brought the tears to your eyes, the very first time I ever sang to you, and I shall never forget it! Those are the jewels which gladden the heart of a singer; —but sleep now, and wake up fresh and strong! I will sing to you!'

-- Hans Christian Andersen 's The Nightingale

How-To-Play

The Nightingale is singing to the emperor's children so they would sleep well. Apart from golden notes, it also sings once an octave the blue note that lulls all the children to sleep altogether. It is late night but still the children are busy with their toys that sometimes get in the way of the Nightingale. However it can be protected by the flying lantern in colors. And steer clear of the cage as the captive nightingale can't sing. All by just tilt your Android to control.
