This music-themed game is fantastic, because it allows you to become lost in a trance of your very favorite tunes. You simply fire up a playlist, and each song provides a new level, with obstacles appearing dependent on the beat and the rhythm. Having enjoyed this title for many years, I can vouch for the fact that it’s truly mesmerizing, and given its usual $2.99 price tag, this is a must-download game that will remain free only for the remainder of this weekend.
