Sequence Review

     Before I say a single thing (aside from the things that I just said) I want to make it perfectly clear that this post has absolutely nothing to do with the board game of the same name. Now with that said, let's start this thing off... *ahem* Have you ever played Dance Dance Revolution? Perhaps you've played one of those PC incarnates of the game whereupon you use the keyboard rather than a dance pad. If somehow you have no idea what I'm talking about, the gist of it is this: There is a song playing, and in the meantime arrows will be slowly sliding down the screen. When they reach a line on the bottom of the screen, you have to press the appropriate arrow, and this is all done in time to the music. It's very similar to Guitar Hero, but without the strumming. Anyways, have you ever thought "you know what this game needs? A storyline, character growth and an RPG style battle system!" Chance are you haven't, but that's ok, because someone apparently has. That's pretty much what Sequence is. The question is of course, do these things actually work together? Or does it create some sort of abomination of genres? Read on and I'll tell you!
