I stand by my opinion that Virtual Reality is the best way to experience Music Games. Ragnarock is one of my favorite music games of all time. The question now is, Will Synth Riders dethrone the king or will I wave goodbye to the game forever? Let’s find out in today’s fitness game review. First, get my opinion of the game and then get to see how many calories I burned. What’s going on everybody! My name is Jack Jenkins and welcome to my YouTube Channel.

[Jack Intro]

Synth Riders is a VR Rhythm game developed by Kluge Entertainment. Originally released all the way back in 2018, I decided to pick up and play this game for my Meta Quest 3. The concept of synth riders is simple. Each hand is a different color ball and you must follow the colors and get points. For yellow you keep your hands together and green is for one hand only. It’s a very simple system that does truly make you feel like dancing. That’s because of this cool rail system where you wave your hand around to grind like Tony Hawk. You move your body to dodge obstacles. Miss too many notes or get hit with too many obstacles and it's game over for your pal.

One thing I like about the game is how customizable you can make the gameplay. You can have the scoring based on how accurate you are in hitting the center of the notes or rails. You can also change it to be based on how hard you hit the balls. Colors can be changed as well as height. There are a ton of options that are there to truly fine-tune the game to your needs. Songs come in five different difficulties from easy to master. During my gameplay, I mostly stuck to normal and Hard.

Outside of the gameplay, what made me feel like dancing was the great soundtrack. Since it’s been a few years since its release, there are a ton of song packs dropped, expanding the soundtrack. We got everything from basic electronica to rock and punk. Right as I stopped playing the game released a Barbie Dance and Dream pack that made me wish I waited a month. There is also a 90’s rock pack that dropped containing Red Hot Chili Peppers, Radiohead, and Blur. Was born in 93 so you can guess how much I love the 90s? Not much because you don’t really have solid memories at that age. Go 2000’s!

While I didn’t purchase any tracks there was still enough to chew on with seventy-eight free songs in the base game. That’s not including any custom songs that will extend the playtime basically forever. I will say that the game is mostly focused on electronic tracks which makes sense. It’s Synth Riders… it’s in the name. I will say that I am more of a Rock and Roll type of guy so a lot of the music just kind of sounded the same to me. Although I will say that the electric swing songs were my favorite. It’s a genre that I am definitely a fan of now thanks to this game.

With the songs, you get these futuristic maps that you can play on. Some of them are static allowing you to focus more on the gameplay while some have you move around a linear map. Specific songs have experiences which are custom maps that sync with the song. The one I played was for Muse but they had some for Kendrick Lamar’s Humble and Barbie Dreams by Fifty-fifty. It shouldn’t be Barbie World by Aqua but I can forgive you Synth Riders. If you have a Meta Quest 3, you can enter mixed reality mode which allows you to see both your environment and the game. Making it so much easier to not accidentally knock things over.

Outside of the main mode of playing the song, there are weekly and daily challenges you can compete in. There is also a cool online mode where multiple people can dance together. One thing that is lacking is a story mode. How awesome would a story mode in this game be? It could be something like Footloose where future dancing is illegal and you must bust a move to free society. Something like that would just kill with this futuristic setting. I really love story modes in games and I want every single game to have them. For now, this is left as a want but there is still enough to chew on.

I do love this game but one thing that holds me back is my shoulders. I thought the Climb was hard… this game is a workout!
