Rift of the Necrodancer is the latest rhythm game from Brace Yourself Games, and it sees the return of the friendly Cadence. This time we are not faced with a series of procedurally generated dungeons, but the gameplay is reminiscent of Guitar Hero, but with some interesting variations. The difficulty is set high, but don't let that scare you: with a little practice, you too will be ready to emerge victorious from the Necrodancer's gates!

Rift of the NecroDancer is a great rhythm game. It’s a title that takes the best this genre has to offer and spins that into a unique, compelling remix that you can’t help but bop your head to.This is an absolute must-play and a blast from start to finish.
While mixing RPG elements with a rhythm game isn’t a new thing by any means, the modern nostalgia that is evoked with Brace Yourself Games’ Rift of the Necrodancer is just a joy to experience.
Though there are occasional pangs for the dungeon-delving days, Rift of the NecroDancer dives fully into the rhythm genre and comes out in a blaze of glory. With a killer soundtrack, a winning art style, and plenty of different modes to keep things fresh, you’ll be rocking on long after the rifts are closed. A Thumb Culture Gold Award for this brutal but bopping musical masterwork!
Rift of the Necrodancer is one of this year’s early heavy-hitters if we’re talking indie music games. [...] Replayable, tough as heck when you want it to be, and full of fun minigames that remind you of a time when Nintendo gave a crap about the Rhythm Heaven series: all this and a fun aesthetic make for a quintessential music offering that does its Brace Yourself Games brand proud.
Rift of the NecroDancer is a great sequel for players that fell in love with Crypt of the NecroDancer ten years ago. While its unique concept is really cool, it is incredibly challenging and the average player may struggle to master it without a lot of practice. Even so, it’s well worth diving into for its gorgeous art style, incredible soundtrack and fun story.
