Gameplay
Gameplay
• Illustration — Demonstration of the typical gameplay style and interface of Muse Dash. The player character strikes enemies as they approach, in time with the music. In Muse Dash, players defeat enemies and avoid obstacles originating from the right side of the screen by pressing buttons or tapping the screen in accordance with the beat of the song playing in the background. The game has only two buttons, making it easily accessible. Difficulty settings exist for most songs, allowing the game to cater to multiple skill levels. The playable characters in Muse Dash are called Muses. Each Muse has their own maximum health and passive skill, depending on the selected costume. Players can also equip Elfins, companions to a Muse which most give them additional abilities.
