Rock Revolution

Rock Revolution

The DS version of music/rhythm game Rock Revolution.

Overview

Unlike its big brother on consoles Rock Revolution on the Nintendo DS uses no peripherals, the different instruments are played using only the touch screen in way that it could be compared to a mix of Ouendan and Taiko. The Ds version also has a Karaoke mode which uses the DS's build in microphone.
