What is Old School Musical?
This 2D rhythm game follows Tib and Rob through retro-inspired game worlds as they investigate the source of game bugs. You time notes to chiptune music to swing a sword or fire shots from a spacecraft across story levels. A separate multiplayer mode supports up to four players.

- +you enjoy testing your reflexes in rhythm games
- +you want shared-screen rhythm play with friends
