Lanterns' Game Recomendations

Tag: Rhythm

Games where the primary focus is on performing an action in time with the music. Not to be confused with Music games, which are games that place a high emphasis on the music, but where the gameplay is not based on it.

  • Muse Dash

    Muse Dash

    A rhythm game styled like some kind of autoscroller fighting game. If you’ve heard of UNBEATABLE, this game is that but with more enemy variety.

  • UNBEATABLE [white label]

    UNBEATABLE [white label]

    A demo of the yet-to-be-released UNBEATABLE, a story game where every stage is a rhythm game level. If you’ve heard of Muse Dash, this game is that but with better animations.

  • EX-XDRiVER

    EX-XDRiVER

    Another free steam rhythm game? Oh you really do spoil us. XDRiVER is a rhythm game with all the styling of a futuristic racing game, the vibes indicate motorcycle racing, but the specifics don’t really matter too much because it’s ultimately a regular VSRG with some interesting scoring mechanics.

  • Melatonin

    Melatonin

    Cozy Rhythm Paradise for sleepy people. A very pretty game I’m love.

  • VIVID/STASIS

    VIVID/STASIS

    From the casual rhythm game to a more intensive one, VIVID/STASIS looks like it’d play like Sound Voltex, but instead of being 6 key, it’s described by the developers as a “4 over 2 key game”. There is also a surprisingly compelling story with some particularly unique ARG elements and mysteries that have had my…

  • Rhythm Doctor

    Rhythm Doctor

    Yī Èr Sān Sì Wǔ Liù Qī Push button on beat 7, save lives, though the nurse speaks Chinese, so you’re gonna have to listen out for that (“Qī” sounds like “chi”). No matter what, you push the button on beat 7, except for SVT stuff, but eh, the game can explain that. Follow the…

  • Hi-Fi Rush

    Hi-Fi Rush

    Rhythm game? Hell yeah! Wait, spectacle fighter hybrid? I never would have guessed this combination would exist. So you’re a rockstar with a busted up arm, and go get it replaced with a robot arm so that you can shred guitar. Except shit gets wild and suddenly you’re wanted by every damn security robot on…

  • RAVON

    RAVON

    Back into my mobile rhythm games folder, RAVON is a game where you have 15 (or 24) square inputs on the screen, and notes will move towards one of those squares where you have to tap them to pick them up. Sounds a lot like a certain other square grid based rhythm game, but unlike…

  • Rotaeno

    Rotaeno

    Did you know, that in terms of arcade and mobile gaming, rhythm games as a genre are the most innovative? Like, you have games with knobs, games with levers, 2D input areas, mashups with entirely different genres, and now, games that utilise the gyroscope in your phone.

  • Groove Coaster

    Groove Coaster

    Groove coaster is an arcade game with some home releases, where the gameplay involves the player following a track, and performing inputs as they pass by them. While I do recommend playing the original Felica enabled Arcade GC version, any version will be just as fun.

  • Arcaea

    Arcaea

    Two young girls explore a shattered world filled with sound: a past to be uncovered. Not the tagline I’d have gone with personally, and a lot of people seeing the logo out of context probably got confused by this too, but in reality while Arcaea is a rhythm game, it also has a lot of…

  • NOISZ STARLIVHT

    NOISZ STARLIVHT

    Gay rhythm game bullet hell. That’s certainly a sentence to start a review with. Let me explain. So NOISZ is a pretty standard rhythm bullet hell visual novel with a bunch of story and lore implication that I’m not 100% on because I haven’t played it, but when I saw NOISZ STARLIVHT, one thing stood…
