Friday Night Funkin' vs Music Hero
Friday Night Funkin'
Friday Night Funkin' is a challenging, indie, action rhythm game with some cool tunes, intense gameplay, and 6 levels (excluding the tutorial), with each level offering around 2-3 songs. Likely inspired by games like Parappa the Rapper and Dance Dance Revolution, the game comes with both a story mode and a free play mode. In story mode, you play as a young man who just wanted to smooch his hot girlfriend but his ex-rockstar dad is in the way! The only thing you can do is to use the power of music to "convince" him that his daughter is in good hands. Of course, her dad isn't the only guy you'll have to fend off in this game, and I really like that the game included some festive-themed levels too, such as the one for Halloween and Christmas.The gameplay in Friday Night Funkin' is also absolutely thrilling, with moments when a slew of tightly-packed arrows will just fill up your side of the screen, putting your hand-and-eye coordination to the ultimate test. Similar to Parappa the Rapper, you'll only get your turn after your AI "opponent" is done with its turn (and the AI always starts first), but unlike the teacher-student dynamic in the classic, the AI and you are competitors in some sort of action rhythm showdown where the loser will, unfortunately, get electrocuted and die.
There are plenty of songs to play and there are some that are truly devilish, to say the least. So, if you're a fan of action rhythm games, Friday Night Funkin' is one game you don't want to miss out on! Give it a play - it's free-to-play after all!
Music Hero
Music Hero is a pretty fun music rhythm game that you can play on your mobile. It features a simple 3-line tapping system where you will need to tap on the notes as they reach the bottom. The more accurate you are, the higher score you'll get. Aside from the flashy animations and brilliant effects, the notes are synced to the music as well, at least the ones available on the app.That being said, Music Hero is perhaps the only app on Google Play to allow you to add your own music to the game and play it. In this case, the notes may not sync at all, but well, at least you can actually play the songs you like!
The game also comes in 3 difficulty levels but if you're a veteran at this sort of rhythm-based tapping games, you might find the game a bit less challenging. However, this means that Music Hero is a great game for new, entry-level players to enjoy the genre.
