About this game

HarmoKnight is a music platform game developed by Game Freak and published by Nintendo for Nintendo 3DS. Released on March 28, 2012, it follows Tempo on a rhythmic journey to save Melodia.

Players use Tempo’s Music Note Staff to beat drums, crash cymbals, and defeat enemies across more than 50 levels. The adventure includes unique boss fights, unlockable stages, and more challenging speeds for players who stay on the beat.

Tempo can team up with characters including Lyra, who slides under obstacles and fires musical arrows, and Tyko, whose drums deliver powerful beats.
