Rhythm and puzzle matching games have been around for a while. Akihabara - Feel the Rhythm combines the genres into a match 4 game that requires you to move around the blocks to the beat of the music for a combination bonus. Like most rhythm games, you’re given a rating of perfect, good, or bad depending on your timing when shuffling around the various colored or patterned blocks.
Akihabara: Feel the Rhythm Remixed is a music rhythm puzzle game for Nintendo Switch. It is also available on Steam, Apple and Android mobile platforms just minus the Remixed part of the title. Coming from developer JMJ Interactive it attempts to bring back memories of Tetris, Columns as well as Puyo Puyo while mixed with Lumines.
'Akihabara – Feel the Rhythm' brings a bit of Tokyo into a puzzle game – with pretty good results.
Akihabara is a unique combination of intense rhythm and fast-paced puzzles set in the Electric Town of Tokyo! Stack and match shapes to 10 original songs and levels -- but don’t let them reach the top ... or it’s “game over”! Can you earn a top spot on the leaderboards and master the rhythm in Akihabara?
Akihabara will be available Thursday, January 26 on the App Store and Google Play for $2.99, and on Steam and the Windows Store for $6.99.
Looks to be a solid rhythm game.
