Cosmophony is a small rhythm game with five songs to play, where you control a small ship, and need to dodge incoming obstacles. The concept is simple, the controls even more so, but the difficulty curve is one of the most abrupt I've seen in rhythm games.

• Good Music - The most important aspect of a music based games is, well, the music. It's a collection of five Drum&Bass songs by the same artist. There is sufficient diversity between them to entertain, and the melody is catchy too!
  
  
• Lovely Design - The game adopts a minimalist approach when it comes to graphics and UI, and damn, it looks good and makes it easier for your eyes to notice screen elements more easily. Here your reflexes are really important, and a good plain color contrast between obstacles and the road is welcomed. Minor shading is also present. The menus look very sleek and I like them too.
  
  
• Entangling Challenge - If you could pass each level on the first try, it would only require you 25 minutes of your time to complete the game. However, that can easily turn in quite the few hours because it is very challenging. But it's the good type of challenge - the kind that has you replay the level again and again because surely a stupid game isn't better than you. Come on, you can do it!
  
  
• Free OST - You can get the song files for free as a DLC. Be sure to get it from the app page.
  
  
• Achievements - There are only five: Complete level X. Which is great for achievement hunters... assuming you can complete the game.

• Insane Difficulty Curve - Level 1 is easy. Level 2 is a bit harder, but manageable. Level 3 requires a couple dozen tries to get accustomed to, Level 4 is... holy $#!^. Level 5... I haven't reached yet.

You pay 5 bucks (coupons are fairly common, too) for five songs and a nice reflex game to encase them. Free OST, great deal, good if you have time (and nerves) to kill.
