The Metronomicon

Bought it to use with a dance pad so the rewiev is made with that in mind. As a beginner dance pad user i managed to find only one single song where i dont die. That is too little. Im not sure how many times ill have to grind that song in order to level my heroes enough to be able to play other songs, game needs more easy difficulty options for dance pad users or at least some kind of song rotation for each level.. Grinding one song is just too boring. - 1 star. The other -1 star removed for placing enemy attribute at the other side of screen completely far away from the dance notes.. its hard to look at that side of screen at all. And also for not making debuffs, enemy attacks and other status effects somehow more visible and obvious. For now all i can tell is that stuff happens on the screen, but no idea what actually happens there.. Switching between difficulty settings is not intuitive and not even mentioned in the tutorial so if you suddenly find your songs to skyrocket from 3.0 difficulty to 6.5 press left arrow in the song choice menu. Besides that the graphic and music are enjoyable. I find the idea of a world where dance invokes magic fun and unique.

This game is not suited for casual use. I lost almost all the time on easy mode on a dance pad even when hitting most of the notes. The game isnt fun if you're just losing. It needs more difficulty levels for casual use. The healer cant heal as quick as the damage is coming in.

Though I don't own it in GoG, I'm well aware of what it is... It's hard to pinpoint where to start, but in truth this game offers a variety of many different genres and mixes it all together in the hopes of making a unique gameplay in an RPG setting. It's a bit hard to like this game if I do say so myself, or to stay engaged to it for hours. Not because it's bad, but because there's nothing in this game that can keep you in front of your screen for the next 72 hours. It's a game you best take your time with, and not think of this as anything revolutionary.
