- Players looking for multiplayer or cooperative play may not find the solo-focused format suitable.
Our take on Project Rhombus
The bounce point arrives when the basic arrow-blocking pattern stops being enough. Players who cannot maintain precise timing with the music will hit the wall during attempts to extend a run, while those seeking broader systems may leave earlier.
What is Project Rhombus?
Project Rhombus is a casual action game built around rhythm.
Players block arrows that move toward them in time with electronic music and try to last as long as possible. The game uses flat, minimal graphics and a beat-focused presentation. Its controls are presented as simple to learn, while continued play requires increasingly precise timing. The listing also notes that the game is free and made in honor of Toby Fox.
