Built to Scale (DS)

"Feel the rhythm of the factory line as you build...stuff. It's hard to explain, so just try playing it."

— Built to Scale Description

Built to Scale (組み立て^?, Assembly) is the first game in Rhythm Heaven. It features recurring Widgets in which you must shoot rods through them during the mass-produce line. Getting a perfect unlocks the Built to Scale soundtrack. The sequel, Built to Scale 2, is unlocked later on.

Gameplay

The player shoots a rod through the center of the squares that pass by each other. To rhythmically succeed in this game, the player must follow the pattern "Do Re Mi Fa Sol" with the music, flicking on "Sol". Amid the level, the screen becomes dark except for the middle and the game becomes somewhat increasingly difficult. This part of the level forces the user to use the audio to win, as well as their rhythm rather than relying and seeing when the widgets align.

Controls

• Flick: Shoot Rod
