Regardless of how bad you do during the boss battles, you’ll still pass, and you’ll always get the chance to redo any battle in order to try and get a higher grade. Surprisingly, I’m not holding this against Songbird Symphony. While this would be fine if you had only two notes to focus on, this particular battle features four notes – one of which you’ve only just learnt – and has a habit of sending down an entire barrage at once. A ‘playing Through The Fire And The Flames on Expert Mode on Guitar Hero’ kind of extreme.įor example, there’s one boss battle in the game where the notes flicker in and out of existence while floating down the screen. All of them revolve around the same general mechanic of ‘repeat after me and hit the right notes when they reach a certain place’, but some take it to an extreme. However, sometimes the boss battles wind up on the bad side of ridiculous. Each fight comes with a musical number complete with sing-along-style lyrics, meaning that each one feels like a beautiful crescendo in an ongoing orchestral piece.
Each song is perfectly crafted to reflect the environment it’s playing in, such as a spicy salsa jam for a fiery cook-off in a volcano, and the transition between each song is seamless. The rhythm mechanics are prevalent throughout the game, with Birb having to chirp certain notes to do things such as open doors and move platforms, and with each big boss battle having its own song and specially themed fight.īefore I say anything else, I just want to say that the music in the game is truly excellent. Songbird Symphony perfectly blends together platformers and rhythm games to create a refreshing game that showcases the best parts of both genres. It’s fun, it’s heartwarming, and it’s adorable, much like Birb himself. Birb has the ability to sing several notes, most of which he must learn from other birds he encounters on his journey, which are the key to solving environmental puzzles and beating bosses.
In Songbird Symphony, you play as Birb, a little bird who sets out on a quest to find out who his real parents are.
