What is the premise?
You faucet and press buttons alongside to the beat of a collection of funky songs — it is a rhythm sport, what did you count on? Tsunku takes on composing tasks once more right here and the tracks subsequently ooze with fashion.
There’s even a (free) storyline in Megamix that’s all to do with making a journey to Heaven World. It isn’t a lot of a gripping plot, we’ll admit, however it’s simply sufficient to hold hours of rhythmic-based gameplay on, so we won’t actually complain.
Why ought to I play it?
Because the title suggests, Rhythm Heaven Megamix is one thing of a ‘better of’ mixtape for the franchise, however this is not to counsel that the sport brings nothing new to the desk.
The collection by no means made fairly as huge of a splash globally because it did in Japan, so this entry works as a pleasant abstract of every part that makes it click on. The writing is comically slick in its weirdness, the visible fashion pops with pleasant vibrancy and the songs are sufficient to make even probably the most rhythmically-challenged of us faucet alongside very quickly.
Like one of the best rhythm video games on the market, this can be a title that’s straightforward to know however troublesome to grasp. We discovered ourselves going again to the identical tracks repeatedly to rack up larger and higher combos and subsequently stuffed hours of playtime with ease.
Whereas bodily copies had been accessible in Europe, it will be a disgrace to see an enormous viewers miss out on the digital-only model of this one.
