Rhythm Control 2: A 2012 Classic Returns to Mobile!

Rhythm Control 2, originally released in 2012, is back on Android! This rhythm game, a chart-topper in Japan and Sweden, features a unique gameplay twist. Instead of the usual falling-icon tapping, players tap six nodes in sequence, with increasing complexity and challenges.

The game boasts a diverse soundtrack featuring both Western and Japanese artists, including Bit Shifter, YMCK, Boeoes Kaelstigen, and Slagsmålsklubben. Get ready for ridiculously high scores and a potentially life-altering obsession with obscure Japanese techno!

A Welcome Addition to Mobile Rhythm Games

Rhythm Control 2 offers a refreshing alternative to other mobile rhythm games. While titles like Beatstar exist, Rhythm Control 2 stands out with its unique gameplay and less mainstream song selection. It's a welcome addition to a genre that's often underserved on mobile platforms.
