DEEMO -Reborn- is Rayark's classic game DEEMO. The fully 3D immersive journey will intoxicate you with the elegant sounds produced by you on the piano, as well as with the adventures you discover in this fairytale world. A girl who fell from the skies and lost her past; Deemo who plays the piano all alone in the world of the treehouse; an accidental encounter between the two. A Classic Reborn: Centered around an ancient castle and a mysterious tree that grows when melody is in the air, control the little girl who has fallen from the sky and help her find her way home.

This was THE game i always played during middle school up to high school and i replayed it many times and... the amount of love and nostalgia just playing dream for the first time after a few years from not hearing this game is just so breathtaking. I understand this game may NOT be the game it is like on mobile especially with some of the songs not being included in this game like "Reflection", "Wings of Piano", "Evolution Era" and some others, it is saddening and would hope maybe it would be included someday but that'll be okay. As this game is deeply embedded in my life and heart and I absolutely just love the story and how the songs are in this game. It has so much beauty and I would absolutely LOVE to just stay around the art of Deemo.
p.s - $25 is criminal (not including the dlc's) but i still love this game

Oh, so you play Deemo? How about playing the real piano?
Nah, Deemo is easier, though it really makes you feel like you are a pianist. Deemo fan from the very first Android release here
A decent remake of a lovely, melancholic and, in some way, unique rhythm game. It surely feels different, but at the same time, it's the same old Deemo. Now, what's the difference from the original?
- You get a comfortable adaptation of the vertical touch-controlled beatmap the original game had, which has the same flexibility (you can do slides with space, or you can tap each note separately) BUT if you see old beatmaps and think you will nail your favorite songs from the first try here, NO YOU DON'T. You need to spend a few hours adapting your brain to the keybindings. And it will resist...
(btw probably it's easier to play in VR mode, but I am yet to try)
- Kinda okay 3D graphics BUT they could've made the girl a bit prettier... Also, seems like the overall vibe of original 2d graphics is completely lost
- Puzzle part of the game is much much larger and rich BUT there are too many. I came here to break my fingers, not my brain
- NO VK SONGS!!!! There is no "BUT", it just sucks. I know there was an incident, but still, it sucks.
- The story (at the moment of the review, I have 16m tall tree) seems absolutely the same BUT there are some very obvious hints, that destroy the intrigue of what's going on. Like that atmosphere of mystery is lost
Overall, it's not perfect, but it will still leave you satisfied, whether you are new to Deemo or not. Recommended!

Deemo is back, and it's as beautiful as ever.
If you enjoy rhythm games, the Deemo series is one to invest in. I'd originally only played the original release back in 2013, but this remake absolutely knocks it out of the park: 3D environments to explore, puzzles to solve, beautiful charm, and a stellar lineup of tracks. The game can be played entirely with just a keyboard, and input is responsive and quick. If you prefer, the game also allows for a VR experience. (Though, I'm not sure how this handles since I do not have a VR headset myself.) After fully completing the game's story and puzzles, I can say for certain that Rayark and co. have successfully re-captured that melodious lightning in a bottle. This series, and by extension, game, is one that every rhythm game-lover should have in their steam library.
The only other recommendation I'd give to those interested is to grab the bundle while it's on sale. There's a LOT of great tracks in the DLC section!
Other things to consider before purchase:
- There might be issues with crashing in cutscenes. This has only happened in the very first and last cutscenes, and it can be avoided entirely via skipping the scene. Just be wary and remember to save where applicable. Otherwise, the game runs fine.
- Some puzzles are not visibly apparent. If you want to 100% this game, you *might* need a guide for 1-2 of them.
- Speaking of 100%: There's a certain achievement that will ask a LOT of you. If you're looking to get every achievement on steam, buckle up and lock in - You're in for a challenge.
- If you played the original Deemo, you'll find that not all songs from the app made the jump to this title. There's still a great lineup like "Light Pollution", "Friction", and "Sairai", but you might find a few old favorites missing like "Reverse - Parallel Universe" and "Evolution Era". Speaking of which...
RAYARK, BRING BACK THE SONG "Marigold" BY M2U, AND MY LIFE IS YOURS!!!

Beat the game, and got all the achievements outside of the "play all songs" type stuff.
I love the mix of cozy puzzle solving and rhythm game. Big fan of the vibe. I heard the og was hand drawn and that would have been cool to see as an alternate play through offered in this but I thought the 3D animation looked nice enough.
The exploration controls are a little loose but isn't really a distraction. Puzzle difficulty isn't terrible given some are a bit of a stretch to figure out.
And then the main event. The music. Loved it all. If you are looking for a rhythm game with just such bangers and beauty in them, this is the one.
Relaxing/10 would play again
