There is also a co-operative Party mode where players all grab 5 cards from a single deck and work together to fulfill requests from “fans” in the game. There are special FX cards which change rules or force your opponent to lose points, and an “equalizer” which spins a wheel to determine if your opponent has to clear any slots on the board. You then have two turns each to place your cards according to a point system, where every card has between one and three levels and you can only place equal or higher level cards on top of the current one any space on the board. Each player or team puts together a deck of 30 cards each to choose a hand from at random. In Clash mode, you go face to face in 1v1 or 2v2 battles. You can spend hours just messing around with the cards to make your favorite mix, but the game has competitive and co-operative modes, too.
#Dropmix all cards professional
Because each card is only one instrument track from each song, they can be combined together without getting in each other’s way and make some seamless mash-ups that would challenge even professional DJs to mix on the fly. There are currently four loose genres, rock, hip hop, electronic and pop with country to be added soon. It might be the vocals from Sia’s Chandelier, or the drum beat from Run DMC’s It’s Tricky, depending on the genre of the deck.

Each card contains a specific segment, or loop, from a song that Harmonix have bagged the rights to use. You play by placing special cards (with NFC loops baked into them) onto the playing surface of the board. The game is a similar combination of physical peripheral and digital gameplay to the Hero line of music games before it, but this time the instrument is a deck of cards. The impressive beat-matching guts are made by Harmonix, undisputed kings of the rhythm genre, and the weird Yu-Gi-Oh style card deck is made in partnership with Hasbro, emperors of plastic toy land. What is DropMix?ĭropMix is a music-mixing peripheral to link to your mobile or tablet. Here’s everything you need to know about DropMix and whether it’s something you should be picking up. Guitar Hero maestros Harmonix have a new music game out called DropMix, so why aren’t we all playing it? There’s a good chance you’ve not even heard of the card-dropping tabletop party playlist mixing game, so we should probably fix that problem before thinking about any of the game’s faults.
