Dynamix vs Zenonia S: Rifts in Time
Dynamix
Dynamix is the rhythm game to play if you feel that most mobile rhythm games are just too "tame". The game features a rather sophisticated gameplay where the keys will pop up not only from the middle-bottom part of the screen but also from the left and right - the sort of gameplay that will definitely appeal to hardcore rhythm games. Of course, like most rhythm games, they do have some impressive flashy visuals to accompany every tap you make.Despite having anime characters in it, the game features over 205 music and songs from a wide variety of artists in addition to Japanese ones, including over 20 Hong Kong originals (the developers are Hong Kong-based after all), Korean hits, and other popular songs from East Asia. However, note that since the game's a freemium, you may need to spend money to purchase the songs you want to play. The free songs are naturally free to play.
With the increasing popularity of rhythm mobile games, we often feel that Dynamix is a challenging game that is often overlooked due to its slight difficulty, at least at the beginning when you're trying to get used to having keys popping up all over the place. However, it is still a very good rhythm game and is an excellent choice as a tougher alternative to any of the SuperStar titles.
Zenonia S: Rifts in Time
Zenonia S: Rifts in Time is an anime-inspired MMORPG title - the first of its kind - within the Zenonia game series. Apparently, Gamevil has given up adding numbers to their single-player Zenonia series and have created something of a spin-off MMO. Regardless of the major shift from single to multiplayer, the game still retains the charm that has rocketed the series to fame in the first place - it's Legend of Zelda-like experience albeit in a more anime format.Being an MMO now, the game provids players with an online hub of sorts - a virtual town - to interact with each other and with various helpful NPCs including quest givers and PvP arena ringmasters. The game also features the usual hack-and-slash combat system, many character classes and pretty graphics.
Although it's nice that the game's now a multiplayer game, we feel like the game has not really made the most of its multiplayer function and had restricted itself in terms of the features that are available. Not to mention, having a great storyline has never been this series' storng suit and this weakness is very evident in this game.
All in all though, if you've always wanted to try an MMO version of Zenonia, this game definitely fit the bill in spite of some of its downsides. After all, it's a free game. So, download it today on your mobile devices and give it a try!
