Rhythm Control 2: A 2012 Classic Returns to Android

Rhythm Control 2, originally released in 2012, is back on Android! This rhythm game, a chart-topper in Japan and Sweden, offers a unique twist on the genre. Featuring a diverse soundtrack spanning Western and Japanese artists like Bit Shifter, YMCK, Boeoes Kaelstigen, and Slagsmålsklubben, Rhythm Control 2 challenges players with a six-node tapping system that increases in complexity.

Unlike many rhythm games that use falling icons, Rhythm Control 2 presents players with six nodes to tap sequentially. The gameplay intensifies with increasingly intricate patterns and unexpected challenges.

A Welcome Addition to Mobile Rhythm Games

Rhythm Control 2 stands out with its less mainstream song selection compared to titles like Beatstar. The game's focus on high scores and its inclusion of obscure, potentially addictive, Japanese techno tracks offers a refreshing change of pace. It's a welcome addition to a mobile rhythm game scene that has, until now, felt somewhat underserved.
