Welcome back to another episode of Puzzling Company! In this episode, Jared and Zach preserve and protect planets through the power of music. A fresh one puzzle-style release from Floppy Club--available on PC, Mac, mobile, and Nintendo Switch--Rytmos is a simplistic approach to the node connection style of game, where you have to find the perfect path between two objects. Within the game, you venture through a subtle narrative coupled with breathtakingly minimalistic visuals and brilliantly composed musical loops that you create through your puzzle solving skills. Throughout the game, you discover various instruments and styles, and the difficulty scales over time. Work to complete the loops and create your own compositions, and perhaps even learn something about historical and global cultures along the way! 0:00 Introduction by the Old Spice (not sponsored... yet) 3:26 Section 1a- Things We Liked 12:37 Section 1b- Rooms for Improvement/Things to be Noted 18:46 Section 2- Game Talk: Single-Mechanic Games 35:07 Closing Out Let us know what you think of Rytmos!
