PC Gamer’s Jonathan Bolding reports on bombastic beats and complex riffs in Power Chord, the rock’n roguelite deck-building game from Big Blue Bubble, available now for PC users on Steam. Players strike a chord with the new character Hyde, a tank drummer that diverts enemy attention and soaks up damage for bandmates.

 

For my part the best bit of Power Chord is that it wants you to work around four different characters. Each member of your band has their own cards and style of play, and that means you’re trying to figure out how to synergize four themes rather than just go as hard as you can on a single overpowered strategy like in Slay the Spire or its ilk.

Jam out to Power Chord, out now on PC via Steam for $19.99 USD and scheduled to come to Nintendo Switch in the future. For more information, visit the official website and follow the band on Twitter, Discord, Instagram, and Facebook.
