The game’s sustained silliness and ability to try new things is what makes the game memorable, even though penetrating the language barrier to unravel its happenings is a challenge. The stars of Kabuki Rocks are Rock and Macky, flamboyantly dressed musicians extraordinaire. They are joined by a number of other characters along the way, and the game’s cast is a predominantly nutty one. The world they explore is nearly as nutty: instead of a single planet with multiple regions, Kabuki Rocks showcases a total of seven wildly different topographies that are traveled between using a spaceship of some sort. The general plot travels down the familiar path of evil people needing to be beaten, but the atypical setting is a welcome change of pace.
