Rhythm Paradise (DS)

Rhythm paradise is an rhythm based game which has MANY OBJECTIVES, but the main one is to feel the beat and the music or else you will end up hating the title. You have to use your stylus to hit the correct beat at the correct time in the correct rhythm. There are three controls in the game - Tap, Tap and hold and Flick (slide the stylus fast across the screen). When you first start the game you will have to enter your details and register a profile which can save your progress automatically. Every time you insert you start the game from scratch or restart it, you have to flick the screen in order to begin, and you have to flick it fast enough ...  Read the complete review

Rhythm Paradise or Rhythm Heaven is a DS game which is what the title says it is. It is a game which uses rhythm and tests you on yours! ~~~BOX ART~~~ It has a very simple box art, with the title in bold, and a small cute white character in the bottom. it doesn't tell you much at all, and i think that could deter people from buying. Personally, the box art was not what got me into the game, but what the game was in itself. ~~~LAYOUT/MENUS~~~ The game was incredibly quick to load, it doesn't have many of the company logos flashing for ages before we can actually play the game, which is a great plus. It is extremely easy to get ...  Read the complete review

I cannot put this game down it is so addictive! Totally unlike any game I've ever played either. I am not really one for fighting or war games - I much prefer puzzles and things like this. I have to say though, you need to have a sense of rhythm to play this game as it involves being completely in time with the beat and the music. If you have no rhythm whatsoever you wont get very far in this game! There are lots of mini games when you start this, and the idea is that you just tap the DS stylus in time to the beat. You get a practice/training screen to tell you how to play that individual game, then you go in and play it for real. It could be copying what ...  Read the complete review

I purchased Rhythm Paradise (also known as Rhythm Heaven) for the Nintendo DS after seeing the advert with Beyonce playing it and thought it looked like the kind of game that I would enjoy. Nintendo have a clever advertising campaign for the Nintendo DS that feature celebrities such as Ronan Keating, Patrick Stewart, Julie Walters, Ant & Dec, Girls Aloud and even the Redknapp's for the Nintendo Wii. I think this in itself makes it appealing to future customers. ~ The Packaging ~ The artwork on the box does not really tell you much about the game and probably would not stand out on a shelf against other DS games. The graphics are ...  Read the complete review

This is definitely the most annoying yet most addictive game i've yet to play on the DS. When I first started playing, I thought that this would be fairly easy. Just tap in time to the beat, right? How wrong I was... After hours of doing the same remix only to be told to 'try harder', I was certainly eating my words. However, the cutesy characters and catchy tunes just compel you to play on. You can't feel like a failure by not being able to master the singing of the Moai Doo-Wop or dance better than a group of frogs... The fact that it is basically a series of mini games makes it fun to play whenever, and easy to dip in and out of. I planned to play it ...  Read the complete review
