In this rhythm RPG designed around the "Divergence" theme, the concept of divergence is highlighted through multiplayer gameplay, where each player selects a unique Class accompanied by specialized rhythm challenges. These Classes come with their own pattern sets, influencing the team's overall advancement. The key to success lies in players effectively handling their specific roles, fostering collaboration while guaranteeing diverse gameplay experiences in each session. This approach seamlessly integrates the theme of divergence into the game's mechanics, offering a varied and engaging multiplayer experience without mentioning dynamic adjustments.
