Takt Op. Symphony is an absolutely beautiful RPG with a compelling narrative and a turn-based combat system that I enjoyed sorely. Even though the title might seem a little unappealing, the game itself is really fun and well-polished despite being in its beta testing phase. Even after only playing for an hour, I’ve had a blast with Takt Op and I’ve only touched the surface.
Takt Op’s storyline explores a world of tunes and chaos where monsters run rampant and the very essence of music is at stake. In Takt Op, I played the Conductor who controls characters called Musicarts on the battlefield. These Musicarts are warriors that harness the power of music to defeat monsters. As the Conductor, I worked alongside these Musicarts to bring peace back to this world and vanquish all the monsters in it. I found this story really interesting because it merged music with familiar fantasy themes. The dialogue between characters was actually really well-written too and had a lot of emotion in it. And if that wasn’t enough, the dialogue had a lot of witty text and banter and some serious moments which made the characters in this story feel memorable as well.
Besides the storyline, the other half of Takt Op is combat. The game features a turn-based combat system that’s relatively easy to understand. Each character has its own playstyle and abilities that function differently. There are characters that can heal allies or defend them from attacks and some that focus purely on offensive moves. There’s not a lot of depth to combat at the moment, but that’s probably because I haven’t gotten that far into the game yet. For the most part, I had a lot of fun strategically beating monsters using all the different characters I acquired.
But beyond this compelling story and combat, the general aesthetic of Takt Op really had me captivated. The first thing that drew me in while playing Takt Op. Symphony was the visuals and oh golly was it a beautiful sight. From the animation and anime-inspired characters to the background art and even the interface, the entire game looks polished and stunning. Not to mention that the music itself sounds classical and great too.
I didn’t run into any issues playing Takt Op and I had a wonderful and smooth time. I was introduced to the story gradually and got the hang of combat pretty well. The game really took its time to explain key mechanics to me too. There’s really nothing to fault with Takt Op and if you’re someone that enjoys RPGs, music, or anime then this game is definitely worth a try.
