Cytus vs Deemo
Cytus
Cytus is a fun and challenging, rhythm mobile game that has a rather striking futuristic/sci-fi theme and an intriguing story about how future robots try to save the human emotions they contain from being erased by storing them in the form of music. Cytus is the place where the music will eventually be kept.In terms of gameplay, the controls are easy to learn since there are, at most, 3 types of notes, but there are multiple ways of tapping on those 3 notes. Aside from its intuitive Active Scan Line system, Cytus also features over 200 songs and 400 variations of said songs. However, don't expect to be bip boppin' to the latest hits though. The songs are mostly just music (no singing) and they are often from the dance/electronic genre, though there are some from other genres, like pop, jazz, and trance, too.
Cytus is perhaps the first mobile game of its kind to include a really profound storyline in addition to its incredibly-addictive rhythm-based gameplay. If you're looking for a fun rhythm game for your mobile, this is definitely a game you'll want to play.
Deemo
Deemo is a unique music rhythm game that doesn't only feature a gameplay which rewards carefully-timed taps; it also features a rich and heartwarming story about a mystical character, the Deemo, who has unwittingly found joy in having a companion, a little, amnesiac girl who fell from the sky, and yet realized that it will eventually have to let her go back to her own world. Despite being a creature of sorts, its struggles are oddly human and hence, it makes the game so much more relatable to so many.Aside from having brilliantly hand-drawn art to illustrate the storytelling, the game also has amazing gameplay that's simple enough to learn and intuitive enough to grasp quickly. The game contains over 220 songs of varying genres from all over the world too. In fact, from the story mode alone, you can enjoy more than 60 of its best songs for free.
Deemo is one of Rayark Games' most iconic, if not, best creations. The company manages to blend the fun of an action rhythm game with epic storytelling, resulting in a game that's unlike any other. If you appreciate a good story and enjoys rhythm games, you'll want to try Deemo.
