📝 Beatblock Press & Player Reactions
PC Gamer: “Beatblock is a brutal rhythmic wolf in sheep’s clothing… deceptively simple at first, then a devilishly complex rhythm game.”
BlueDaisy (Steam Review): “I love rhythm games with a different twist, so this looked like a match made in (rhythm) heaven. It scares me. The charting is unique from the get-go and ramps up in difficulty fast. 10/10 my hands were doing circles on my desk.”
Suzu (Steam Review): “This game made me groan about a specific note type and then immediately played a song that said ‘skill issue’ right to my face. It’s been a bit since I’ve laughed this much playing a rhythm game.”
Aerid (Steam Review): “Been following since the demo. The final songs are amazing—humbling but fair. The way the game teaches you and helps you improve is masterful.”
