What players say
Players say Rimward Basilisk is a free rhythm bullet hell controlled entirely with the mouse. They praise the soundtrack and the creative, unique combat, but note the controls can feel clumsy at first and the game is short, finishing in five to six hours. Opinions split: most love the minimalist design, a few find the controls unengaging.
