You don’t have to go to the desert to enjoy the World Cup. Fortunately, we’re bringing the World Cup to you and the winner gets a Dreadbox Hades. Want to play? Follow on to find out how.

How to play?

To begin with, we have The Synth World Cup Group Stage.

It’s very simple to play:

  • STEP 1: Choose who you think would win in a head-to-head between the two synths in the picture
  • STEP 2: Submit your answers at the end

That’s it!

We will then monitor which synths receive the most votes and they will be moved on to the next stage to be played next week.

We appreciate the group stage in Qatar is a mini-league but we’ll be here forever trying to logically work that out. Therefore forgive us, but the group stage is also knockout…!

A Dreadbox Hades worth £349 inc VAT.
