Zubo the music rhythm game
June 25th 2008 06:37
I've been away snowboarding for a few days (thus my absence), but I'm back now and it's right back to gaming! As a huge fan of both music rhythm games and collecting games, it has to be said but the upcoming DS title 'Zubo' seems pretty interesting to me. Made by UK based EA Bright Light studio in Guildford, UK, Zubo is due for release in mere months.
Though press for Zubo states it's being made for "7-11 year old boys and girls" I'm wondering whether this might be one of those kiddie titles that crosses over into the mainstream.
ZuboTM is a music-based rhythm-action game featuring a unique set of characters that is scheduled to ship worldwide later this year, exclusively on the Nintendo DS handheld system.
Players enter the world of Zubalon to help the colourful and zany inhabitants, the Zubos, defeat an evil force which is bent on world domination. Players can befriend the Zubos they meet along the way, feed and nurture them, help them gain skills and strength, and assist them in their battles with the enemy, the dastardly Zombos.
A key element to Zubo is music, which is intrinsic to Zubalon from its tuneful plant life through to its currency of musical notes. The player will use the music to drive the battles forward, synchronising their stylus action and tapping in time with the musical beats to win!
With 55 Zubos available to find and recruit to a player’s squad, plus a wealth of interactions and mini-games, and the world of Zubalon to explore, Zubo offers a deeply rewarding Nintendo DS experience.
