Rhythm Sprout: Sick Beats & Bad Sweets

PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? Play it. Not since PaRappa the Rapper have I been as invested in the narrative or the characters of a rhythm game. Rhythm Sprout: Sick Beats & Bad Sweets hooked me into a sweet adventure through its lighthearted dialogue, rhythmic diversity, and of course, dope beats. TIME PLAYED I clocked in around three hours on Rhythm Sprout playing on the PlayStation 5. This was plenty of time to complete the main campaign, which is twenty levels, the prequel, which is five more, and the five bonus stages.

Rhythm Sprout: Sick Beats & Bad Sweets is a brand new game on steam that I really enjoyed playing. The story, the rhythm game feature and how the game plays overall was really nice and surprising. Gameplay wise you play as Sprout, the chosen one. Who must save the kingdom and also save the princess. The story is very entertaining, and full of jokes, and also pretty self aware. In order to progress in the story you have to play rhythm games to travel around the world. From a location full of talking mushrooms, to a spooky haunted castle. There's so many locations to visit while playing the rhythm part of the game. All the music is original and created for the game. With inspiration from genres such as low-fi, EDM, K-Pop, hip hop and even metal. With plenty more inspired music as well. 

It's brilliant
