Titled Dave Mustaine: Guitar Prodigy and available now for $9.99 on iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch, the interactive trainer lets budding virtuosos practice along with songs such as “Holy Wars” and “Public Enemy No. 1.” It contains both classic tracks such as “Tornado of Souls” and joints from the band’s new album, TH1RT3EN, ad well as so-called “Micro Lessons” that promise to teach technique, theory, rhythm and related chord progression. Multiple skill levels from beginner to expert are supported, as are leaderboard options that let players show off high scores, if not their actual blistered fingers.
