An original production in which the flow of the gameplay is tied to the rhythm of the music - the world presented reacts to individual songs and single tones, and during clashes against our opponents, we are rewarded for adapting our actions to the dynamic songs. In Soundfall we play as Melody, a girl trying to save the land of Symphonia from a dark force known as the Discord.
Soundfall is a hybrid of several genres, as it combines roguelike, twin-stick shooter and rhythm game elements. The title was developed by the independent Drastic Games studio, founded by former Epic Games employees.
The main character of Soundfall is Melody, a young audiophile who has been thrown into a musical land called Symphony. The protagonist must not only find her way home but also defend the world from a dark force known as the Discord.
In Soundfall, the action is shown in an isometric view. At first glance, the gameplay does not differ from the pattern characteristic for roguelike titles. Over the course of the game, we travel through procedurally generated locations, fight against hordes of enemies with the use of melee weapons and firearms, and acquire more and more powerful equipment.
In comparison to other games of this type, the described title is distinguished by the fact that everything happens to the rhythm of music, and the world presented here reacts not only to individual songs but also to individual tones. In addition, we have to adapt to the rhythm of the songs when trying to execute attacks and evade incoming blows, for which we are additionally rewarded.
Soundfall can be played in singleplayer or with up to three people, in an online or a local cooperation mode.
Soundfall operates on the basis of Unreal Engine 4 technology. The three-dimensional graphics of this production are kept in a colourful, cartoony style. The gameplay is accompanied by a dynamic, trance soundtrack.

Game Ratings for Soundfall Video Game.
Shacknews: 7 / 10 by TJ Denzer
Soundfall does quite a few things right. Its loot and shoot design set to a lot of good music is commendable. The tracks included in the game are of a wide variety and even if you get through the entire game, the ability to play levels to your own favorite music is pretty great (on PC). The problem is… Soundfall’s gear and enemies just aren’t all that compelling. The music and rhythmic gameplay are good enough to carry a lot of this game, but I can’t help but wish it had a more rewarding variety of gear to look forward to and enemies that didn’t quickly end up feeling like repetitive drones. Even so, if you can get down with a good rhythm action game alone or with friends, Soundfall might be worth it whether you play to its soundtrack or bring your own.
Nintendo Life: 7 / 10 by Mitch Vogel
Soundfall is interesting and original, but stumbles in its execution. The marriage of rhythm gameplay with a twin-stick shooter is a rocky one, and it's hard not to think this would be a stronger game overall if it were focused solely on either the shooting or the rhythm elements. It can work harmoniously, but also causes frustration when its two halves pull you in different directions. Yet despite its clumsy moments, we'd still give Soundfall a solid recommendation, as its diverse and catchy soundtrack, RPG-esque character progression, and high replayability make this one easy to love. It maybe could've used more practice, but Soundfall overall delivers a strong performance.
PlayStation LifeStyle: 6.5 / 10 by Cameron Teague
There is a lot of love with Soundfall. The music never fails to suck you in to each leve,l and the story and characters are cute. However it’s not all solos and encores, as the level design is rather bland and repetitive and the multiplayer leaves a lot to be desired. If you are in the mood for a dungeon crawler with a nice twist, you have a gem in Soundfall. Just don’t go expecting an overly deep loot system or anything too complex. It’s a rather straight forward game that’s all about getting lost in the sounds, which honestly can be rather nice to do.
