Journey through a vibrant world, utilising the power of music to overcome obstacles, solve puzzles, and defeat enemies. Each movement and action feels intrinsically linked to the game’s enchanting soundtrack, creating a fluid and incredibly satisfying gameplay loop.
Symphonia earned a perfect 5/5 score in our review, where we raved, “Symphonia provides hours of platforming bliss, that of which I haven’t felt since starting my first playthrough of Rayman Legends on the Xbox 360. It’s definitely a contender for platformer of the year lists and makes the top spot for my favourite 2D platformer. Without a doubt, fans of platformers should check Symphonia out, and any other gamers who wish to test their abilities should feel free to tag along too.”
