Hachi Hachi vs Life is Strange
Hachi Hachi
Hachi Hachi is an anime-themed action rhythm game that boasts of offering a slew of original soundtracks, each with their own back stories for you to uncover. The tracks are all designed by more than 20 professional musicians working together and they feature tunes from a wide variety of music genres, ranging from J-pop to Jazz; R&B to hardcore metal; and so much more. All of this is also coupled with fantastic anime art that truly immerses you into the theme of the game.The most interesting part of Hachi Hachi is its PvP aspect. Unlike many other action rhythm games which are basically single-player games, Hachi Hachi lets you choose to compete with another player or play alone in its Casual mode. The game also has a highly competitive Arena mode. In it, there's a weekly tournament where players will be randomly matched with other players of similar skill levels and be given a random song and difficulty to battle in. The more matches you win, the higher you rank on the tournament's leaderboard!
If competitive tap tap-styled games are kind of your thing, Hachi Hachi is an excellent choice. Give the game a try by downloading it from Google Play or the Apple App Store!
