A rhythm roguelike doesnt work if it has bad music, and indeed, Necrodancers songs really slam. It isnt just the music. The sound effects, the visual look of the game, and the general dance aesthetic is just so damn good. It all works together to feel great.

But it also doesnt work if its easy to play. You need that difficulty to make the rhythm aspects feel good when you nail the patterns and the beat all at once. When youre dancing alongside a dangerous miniboss, Necrodacer can feel zen-like.

I suck at this game and thats okay. I kind of love how brutal it is. I played the demo of Cadence of Hyrule and it just felt too permanent and too relaxing. I love the stress that Necrodancer brings, that feeling that Im going to die and its just a matter of how long I can hold on.
