Wonderful Rhythm Game
This game is an interesting mix between an RPG and a Dance Dance Revolution clone in a good way. Essentially you move between your characters using the Shift keys and the arrow keys or WASD to hit the notes. It sounds hectic at first but it's amazingly fluid after only a few songs. This leads to the weakest portion of the game, the songs. Now I am in no way saying the songs are bad, because they aren't, they're actually fantastic, however there are very few, if any songs, I'd venture to say the average people would recognize immediately. With that in mind every single song is catchy and you'll be humming along faster than you can imagine. The way combat works is you hit notes in order to "cast" the attack, however you set attacks up in that the longer you keep a chain of notes going the actual attack will change. Say your "Exploder", the mage class, has a fire ball in their 1 position, that means in about 4-7 notes you'll cast a fire ball once you mess up for change to a different character, however if you have a water blast in the 2 position if you hit the 4-7 notes for the fire ball and continue to hit the right notes you'll end up casting the water blast. In addition to this variance in casting there is also a power difference increasing by each position. An attack in the 2 position will be stronger than an attack in 1 position. The game also boasts a variety of combat types, ranging from simple "beat the song for a high score" mode to a "survive a boss that has a continuious attack" to "Kill X amount of enemies". This leads you to approach each objective differently, like in the high score mode you just wanna hit as many notes as possible while healing every now and then while in the kill mode you wanna pay attention to the enemy's monster type, each of which as a specific weakness. TL;DR: A great game with a rather unknown song base that grows on you over time and will keep you entertained for hours assuming you like rhythm games.
