Vib-Ribbon is one of the most charming and unique rhythm games I've ever played. The game uses vector-style graphics with the lines taking the shape of an audio waveform while Vibri hops, vaults, and rolls through blocks, loops, waves, and pits. I'm just going to say it right now, Vibri is adorable. There's something about her singing and frolicking to the sounds of the music while listening to happy J-pop music that I found endearing

Anyway, the game has 6 songs, 2 from each level, which are Bronze, Silver, and Gold. The only downside I have with the game is you can experience the whole game in about 30 minutes, but I have to admit, I was surprised by the ramp-up in difficulty in the later songs, but I didn't mind

The game may be short, but that's where your music CDs come in. You see the game's software loads into RAM, letting you use any music CD to play against, and can generate a unique level from whatever track you put in. This also works on the PS3 via the PS1 Classics, and while I haven't experienced it myself, it is really neat that you can do that

Vib-Ribbon is one of the most overlooked PS1 games, and if you're someone trying to find some more obscure game for that particular system, pick this one up on the PS3/PS Vita Store, or emulation, your choice. I hope that one day this will be rereleased on PS4/PS5, because I believe this is one of the games that made PlayStation back in the day, PlayStation. It's a shame that they don't make games like these anymore
