It is very important for newbies who have just entered the trap to know some tips, which can avoid more misunderstandings in play. First of all, even if you think you are good at rhythm games, it is very important to play a tutorial. Rhythm Rift is not just about hitting beats, each beat has a monster.
What newcomers should pay attention to when tickling rifts
Play tutorials
Even if you think you are good at rhythm games, it is very important to play the tutorials. Rhythm Rift is not just about hitting beats. There is a monster for each beat, and each monster has a different movement mode or attack method.
We strongly recommend that you play the tutorial chapters first in the beginning of the story mode, which will take you through the characteristics of each enemy one by one, so that you can know how to deal with it.
You can also play a song in practice mode to get a full grasp of it.
Reduce the difficulty
Rhythm Rift can be difficult. After completing the tutorial, you may feel like you can challenge the medium or difficult difficulty, but fail. Some songs are harder than others, which can be struggling if you are not ready.
If you can keep up with the difficulty, that's great! If not, don't hesitate to reduce the difficulty.
After a while, you may feel confident about the higher difficulty, but this is not necessary. For example, if you want to play the full story in simple mode, it's absolutely fine.
You can pause the song and change the difficulty from the pop-up menu; this will restart the song and apply the new difficulty. If you feel that you have too many challenges and want to quickly adjust the difficulty, you can use this method.
Don't hit irrelevant notes
In Rhythm Rift, every attack is important; even on a beat without monsters. Some rhythm games allow you to click at will without any musical notes without any consequences. But this is not the case in Rhythm Rift.
If you are making a combo but accidentally hit a note without a monster, your combo will be interrupted. So make sure to hit the notes only if needed.
Slap the footsteps
This technique works for almost all rhythm games. Players who play rhythm games for a long time may already know this, but if you are new to this genre, it may be a bit difficult to maintain the rhythm at the beginning. While Kadens and the monsters are dancing to the beat, it is easy to feel overwhelmed when dealing with some non-beat notes.
If you have trouble finding the rhythm, try slapping your footsteps to help keep the rhythm. While it sounds simple, this actually works very well.
Gaming in Story Mode
When you first start Rhythm Rift, the top menu option will be "Start the game." This option gives you the option to play from multiple songs of different difficulty levels. While this may be enough for you to enjoy the game, we recommend that you play through story mode.
The story tells the story of Kaydens exploring in a strange new world. As you advance the story, you will naturally unlock songs, boss battles and mini games. This is a great way to avoid wasting unnecessary diamonds.
Quick restart when making mistakes
Not every game can go as planned. If you need to restart the song midway, you can restart quickly. On a PC, just press the "R" key on the keyboard. In the pause menu, you can see the exact keys/buttons you need to press for quick restart.
Review the enemy's attack mode
There are many enemies in the game, so it is natural to forget some attack modes. Rather than struggling, it is better to enter the "Illustrated Book" menu. Here you can view all the monsters in the game and select one for practice.
For example, if you really can't remember how to deal with the red armadillo, you can scroll to the relevant entries in the book for practice. In each monster entry, the part that shows only the monster name will take you through a simple tutorial, while the "Mode" option will increase the difficulty of the monster.
Replay the song
Finally, don't forget to replay the song! There's a good chance you won't finish perfectly on your first try. As you replay the songs, you will become more skilled and may even earn more diamonds. Replaying the songs can also help you get familiar with some less familiar enemy attack modes.
Of course, if you really like a certain song, it is also a good reason to replay it. While you won't earn more diamonds anymore (if you already have all of them), you can try to win a spot on the global rankings. Or, simply relax and enjoy your favorite songs!
