This is easily the best version of the game and a fantastic rhythm game that I’d put alongside Superbeat Xonic which is my favourite one on the platform.
Deemo is a very gentle game. Its minimalist aesthetic aims to connect with players emotionally rather than intellectually or physically, and the end effect is akin to sitting down at a piano and playing a favourite song; but not for the benefit of an audience, and not as an examination or other test of musical skill. Sometimes people play music purely for the joy of music, and that’s what Deemo succeeds in tapping into. Sometimes, just sometimes, people play music simply for the joy of it.
Too many third-party games on the Nintendo Switch are something you'd play for an hour, say: "Well, that was a fun little time", then never pick it up again. Examples include Untitled Goose Game, Doughnut County, A Short Hike, etc. Deemo isn't like this. Deemo is a game that will last and resonate with you for the rest of your life. A mark of a true piece of art!
This game is an absolute delight to play. All of the playable songs are beautiful in their composition and a lot of them will have you coming back, not even necessarily to beat your score or 100% it, but just because they can be so much fun just to pull off and play. There is a story here that unfolds as you play through songs and it is very touching, but I wouldn't say its center stage, which is honestly just praise for how good the gameplay is. I genuinely love that you can use the touch controls on the screen to play the notes just like on the phone version it started as. Highly recommend this game, easily my favourite rhythm/music game
Flyhigh Works’ second Switch symphony hits all the same highs as the first; Deemo is a fantastic rhythm game, with an incredible soundtrack, fun mechanics, and a surprisingly touching tale to tell. Its lovely art and piano focus give it a unique feel — without at all restricting its musical horizons — and excellent pacing and difficulty options make it accessible and fun for a wide range of skill levels. Music fans shouldn’t miss this — Deemo is a hit.
Deemo excels in every aspect for a game of its genre. On the surface it may seem like any other rhythm game, however its musical accuracy combined with a stellar and diverse song selection makes it an incredibly captivating experience - it even has an emotional story! The premium package will seem a lot to those not into the genre, but it's an easy recommendation for anyone who is.
If you’re a rhythm action fan and you’ve more or less rinsed VOEZ by now, Deemo is a brilliant successor. Its gentle soundtrack makes it a more laid back rhythm game and while its in-game design is maybe a little too minimalist the music takes centre stage wonderfully.
Deemo is a masterpiece of visual storytelling, the gameplay tells a story to you through the music as you feel every note that is hit, the price you pay for all the DLC in one package for the switch version is a steal as it would add up to hundreds of dollars so paying 45$(Canadian) is a very good price for the amount of content you get with every DLC to come will be free on it as well. This game has gotten me into a wider range of music that I would not try or think about if it wasn’t for this game. A one of a kind experience 10/10
모바일 버전과 동일한 게임이나 이식은 아주 훌륭하다. 모바일 버전이 6점이라면 스위치 버전은 7점을 주고 싶다.
특히 모바일 버전에서 발생했던 키음 밀림 현상이 전혀 없다. 비타판과 달리 터치도 전혀 문제 없다.
내년에 독모드 지원(버튼 입력)을 업데이트한다고 했는데, 그때 점수를 올려서 다시 리뷰를 작성하고 싶다.
The game is great! But the issue is that we were promised all future updates for free. The game has not gotten a single new song pack in almost 2 years.
Played the Deemo demo. Most of the notes are not sync with the melody. Not on easy, nor on hard. I have gotten better scores playin it on mute, just looking to the precise time to press the buttons. I cannot enjoy a game, no matter how good visual and story it has, if the main purpose and core, rythm genre, doesn't have decent and polished gameplay.
SummaryDeemo: The Last Recital is a rhythm music game in which the player must hit notes to the melody of the music. Enjoy the storytelling as well as tons of DLC content. [Playstation.com]
