I only ventured into Supreme and Ultimate a couple of times before crashing and burning mere seconds after beginning. I mostly stayed at the Basic and Expert difficulties because I focused more on feeling the music rather than mastering the precision and speed required at higher difficulties.

During my playthrough, it felt like I was just scratching the surface. It boasts 385 tracks from mainline entries and the plethora of spin-offs and sequels - almost double that of its 2014 predecessor Theatrhythm Final Fantasy: Curtain Call.ĭon't be fooled by the flat chibi art style Theatrhythm Final Bar Line has impressive depth. The game features a broad catalog from the series' greatest composers from Nobuo Uematsu to Masashi Hamauzu to Hitoshi Sakimoto. I especially enjoyed this mechanic during sweeping overtures like the main theme from Final Fantasy VII. There are a couple of distinct flourishes, like when you hold a button and follow notes using the joystick, which at times can almost feel like you're conducting an orchestra. Think Guitar Hero, but substitute the fretboard for a sequence of buttons to hit on your controller. If you've played any rhythm game, Final Bar Line should be easy enough to pick up.
