1. Play real drum rhythms.

Rhythm Journey is centered around each track’s drum beat. Specifically, the game play focuses on the drum’s kick and snare, which can be described as the ‘boom’ sound and the ‘pat’ sound. Rhythm Journey also contains a variety of genres, rhythms, beats, and techniques (pop, rock, funk, Bossa nova, swing, shuffle, 8-beat, 16-beat, 4/4 beat, 3/4 beat, syncopation, fill-in, etc.) that are used in real music, so you feel as if you’re actually playing the drums.


2. Listen to each character’s story through their song’s lyrics and vocals.

Rhythm Journey is a rhythm game with a story. Centered around your main adventure, where you are saving the world of sound by passing the rhythm paths, each song contains various tales about various emotions in an omnibus format. Listen to stories that are sometimes warm, sometimes sad, sometimes about life, and sometimes even philosophical through song lyrics and character vocals.


3. The controls are easy to learn, but hard to master.

Rhythm Journey is a game played with only two buttons, but it's high difficulty makes it so you have to almost play perfectly to get to the end of each song. In addition, you have to respond to various patterns, such as changing your speed and direction.
However, assist options such as the ability to automatically go through each track can help you make it through the game. As long as you don’t give up and stay determined, you will always be able to make progress until your hard work pays off and you finally beat the level.


4. Enjoy 160 stages and 32 tracks.

Rhythm Journey has 32 tracks (27 with lyrics and vocals, 5 instrumentals), with each track containing 5 stages for a total of 160 stages to play. You can also test your mastery of the game by speeding up each track.

Ratings and reviews

Very cool rhythm game! It has simple mechanics, but is challenging! You can play one set of levels for free before needing to spend $2.99 usd for the full game. Informative tutorial! I do wish it had achievements (which at this point I do not see) One issue is I have two email accounts, and it keeps trying to use the second account over my main one. I would love to buy the full game, but I can't using that email.

My biggest issue with the game is that it is needlessly hard if you miss once you lose which makes the game "hardcore". The difficulty jump from the first level and the second level is way too big. The TTS voices used are terrible it makes the songs sound worse, including a way to disable them would have been great. The first song is great and pretty catchy actually meanwhile the second one feels uninspired and generic. Would't buy.

This is what a mobile game aspires to be. I discovered this game through the partnership with 7th Beat Games, and I've already bought the expansion, as I love the "organic" nature of the game - no ads forced down your throat, no UI bloat, just a hand-crafted indie game and the music composed by the developer. From what I've experienced so far, this game has so much potential - if the game ever gets a level editor or PC release, you bet I'll be near first on the list for it!
