Since Curtain Call contains over 200 Final Fantasy tracks, it goes for a more modular design-which initially disappointed me. Curtain Call presents its songs as scenes ripped directly from Final Fantasy, and your input typically translates into making characters strike enemies or speed across an old-school world map by foot, chocobo, or airship. As with Rock Band and countless other rhythm games, nodes come flying at you down a pathway, and you're tasked with tapping, flicking, or dragging the stylus to catch them all-you can use non-touch controls this time around, but it's not recommended. That said, since I don't have a lot of familiarity with the first edition, I'll be judging Curtain Call on its own terms, and you can check out Kat's Second Opinion below to see how it stacks up against the original release.Ĭurtain Call acts as an interactive Final Fantasy jukebox, paired with a framing device that lifts some light RPG elements from the series.
And so, my patience-or I guess apathy, in this case-has been rewarded with the better version of a game 3DS owners fell in love with back in 2012. It's the perfect move for people like me, who never bothered looking into Theatrhythm when it released just a few summers ago. Slap in a little extra content here and there, make some tweaks, then give it a subtitle which identifies this version of the game as the superior one. Theatrhythm Final Fantasy: Curtain Call takes the form of your average Japan-developed rerelease.
