My prior rhythm game experience is basically just Crypt of the Necrodancer, and I love this sequel too. Cool twist on the format.

Good game but a far cry from Crypt of the necrodancer. It's a sad world where the closest game to Crypt is a Zelda game that's console locked.
Great game, but make another Crypt game please!

An incredibly solid rhythm game with a phenomenal soundtrack and mostly well designed gameplay and visuals. The only real drawbacks are that the story mode is pretty mediocre imo and not all of the rhythm heaven style minigames are winners, but these aren't the main reason to buy the game and the core gameplay is ABSOLUTELY good enough to cover for everything else.

what a fun and unique rhythm game. I put off buying it for awhile because the demo scared me off, but the game is doing a good job at teaching it's language to me - it's just like learning guitar hero again for the first time. never thought a rhythm game would come along that had to school me again but it's a wonderful experience to go from scrub to feeling like a badass (even if I'm not even playing on hard yet)

Solid game that takes the uh 'combat' of Crypt and I'd say it works quite well as a chart based rhythm game. A good music game needs good music and this does not disappoint, the genres and production are quite standout. The rhythm heaven esc minigames are such a good cherry on top too.
Thank you for continuing to shove Miku in my rhythm games I am not being sarcastic in the slightest (real opinion by a real human)

Falling note or vertical rhythm games live and die by clarity and readability. Rift of the NecroDancer tries to bring its own style to the genre, but the result is a screen that’s far too busy and visually cluttered for the precision this format demands. Between the excessive "bouncy" effects, character animations, and overlapping visual cues, it often feels harder to parse what’s coming than to actually play to the beat. In a genre where your eyes and reflexes need clear information above all else, this level of visual noise becomes a major distraction.

Guitar hero games transmit information to the player in a very clear, simple, consistent way for a reason. Asking the player to keep so many unique behaviors in mind for every note becomes unmanageable at a quick pace and high enemy density. I stopped playing the story mode near the end when I got to the question mark enemies that no longer carry any obvious visual indicators of their behavior. Steamachievements says only 2 people have cleared the hardest achievements in the game.
The team is clearly incredibly talented and I adore the art design, especially the use of color (outside the lanes). I also really appreciate the seamless integration of user-generated content. But I don't think the experiment works.

This a Very complex game but, very satisfying When everything clicks into your head. When all of that knowledge that you know. The game shines at it best, and getting a S+ full combo! on any difficulty. The Game becomes super fun! And masterpiece or amazing. Just don't buy the DLC it's overpriced, Need to be fix! But still amazing game.
