Developed by Indie developer Super Spin it is one of the most exciting titles in the rhythm genre. Especially its gameplay style and background, they really catch my attention. The gameplay includes a rotating wheel/semi-wheel having blue and red tiles which rotate with the buttons.

The main concept of the game is to hit matching color tiles by using buttons and a wheel. It binds in the momentum which is rare for these types of rhythm games except in VR games like Beat Saber, which is our next rhythm & music game title in the list.

Beat Saber is a VR game and this game is a pretty exciting rhythm music game. When you will try it for the first time you may feel overwhelmed by the moves you have to perform. But, once you get accustomed to the playing style then nothing beats Beat Saber.

The gameplay is pretty simple to understand, you will be standing on a VR platform and glowing boxes in red and blue will come towards you with some patterns on them. You have to cut them with the help of your VR sword in the direction of marking. This game uses swords in contrast to shooting tiles, unlike other rhythm games.

These boxes appear according to the beats of the song you have selected so, playing your favorite song makes it more interesting and amazing. There are many youtube videos showcasing players with unparalleled skills, you can also train yourself in the game and make a video worth millions of views, and show your dance moves.

Runner 2

Runner 2 is a little bit different from your classic Rhythm and music-based games. There are no tiles or keys to use as a marker rather you will have gameplay similar to that of Mario. The runner has a great development over its first counterpart the first part of the runner was just the pixelated graphic video game but runner to you can see 3D movements and a much better-improved gaming environment. 

What makes runner 2 so special is the mixability of background music and gameplay notes. For the gameplay, if you have a fast-running character you have to keep him moving forward by Jumping On obstacles or other things. The gameplay is very similar to Mario with great differences in music.

MUSYNX

Originally it was launched for mobile platforms but seeing its popularity, its creators also made it for PC. They also upgraded it a little bit, the PC version is jam-packed with tracks. It has almost 100 tracks in it from all the major music genres like rock, pop, r&b, etc.

The gameplay of MUSYNX is a little bit different from other Rhythm and music games this if you don’t press the key according to the keynote then it will skip that keynote. In other games whether you press it correctly or not they generally play the song continuously. This could be irritating for some of us but it is a little bit different from other Rhythm and music games.

Keeping this skipping thing aside the gameplay is pretty similar to that of other games. You have to press keys according to the keynotes shown on the screen.  The more accurate and precise you are the higher is your score.

Muse Dash

When you will browse this game on the Steam Store then its flashy art style, cute characters, and gameplay screens will definitely catch your eye. In contrast to its flashy art style its gameplay is quite simple you have only two buttons to control one is the attack button and the other is the jump button.

It is basically an action-based rhythm and music PC game. In this, you can play with one of the three characters i.e. Rin, Buro, and Marija, and beat your enemies with the beat of the song. In starting there aren’t many song titles that are open for playing, so you have to unlock them by collecting EXP in gameplay. SO can also unlock collectibles and character skins from the collected EXP.

All the gameplay is pretty competitive but the thing that kept me hooked is its cuteness and flashy gameplay.

OSU is a free game developed by an Australian developer named Dean Herbert. It is based on a Nintendo Game known as “Osu Tatakae Ounendan” and thus the name OSU.

The gameplay is very simple yet exciting. You have to choose a song and then circles will appear on the screen at random places according to the beat of the music.

DJMax Respect V is the latest release in the DJMax series. Released in 2017 by a Korean company named Neo Wiz, this game became a huge no-go for many of the players. First of all, it is an online game, so it requires an internet connection every time.

Second and most important it uses XIGNCODE 3 for anti-cheat measures, for those who don’t know this software installs itself in the registry and keeps track of every file opened in the last 48 hrs when you run the game. In one way it plays with your privacy, so if you are not sure then please don’t go with this game.

Now, for gameplay, this game has mostly Korean music titles of various genres. It has six buttons and an eight-button gameplay style. According to the song you have selected there will be tiles falling on the bottom line and you have to press the corresponding note as the tiles are close to the line. The closer you press them the better is your score.

At first, this game looked very unappealing to me but, after listening to a lot of positive reviews about it I decided to try it out. This game’s control is very simple you have to just control the spinning with your mouse’s click or the assigned button. This game is divided into various worlds and each world has its own sub levels.

Each of these levels’ difficulty keeps on increasing one by one and they help you gain experience gradually. At the end of each world, there is a boss level that tests everything that you have learned in that world so far.

It represents the rhythm and music of PC games in a unique style. It has twists and turns like Z-bend, S-Bend, circles, squares, pentagon, etc. with each increasing level the fun and difficulty both increase. I’ll suggest you definitely try this one.

Sequence Tomb has single-player gameplay with split-screen as a multiplayer option. It is an Indie racing music and rhythm game that was developed by special magic games LLC. It came out in 2018 and has tons of positive reviews.

Gameplay is very similar to other music and rhythm types of games. You have to press keys according to the tiles shown on the screen and as you keep on pressing them in a certain time speed and energy build stuff that can be used in the game.
