this is my favorite mobile game. the girls are beautiful the art style is beautiful graphics wise it looks amazing except for the actual rhythm game part of the game where chibi pngs of ur characters jump around sorta to the beat but not rly a big deal cuz im looking at th notes anyway. this is also th only one of these kinds of games that had th balls to have explicitly lesbian characters (they even kiss!!) which is great bc i love lesbians. if ur interested in th story but dont care for th game, theres also an anime u can watch for free on youtube its p good :)

the music varies in quality but its rly diverse and some of the songs r rly ... eargasmic hehehe. but srsly tho th soundtrack is great

th gameplay is more forgiving than other rhythm games which makes it less frustrating to get full combos n shit. i also like that th game can b comfortably played with just my thumbs holding m phone in a natural position, even on th hardest songs (tho u need some fast fucking fingers). no need to awkwardly lay all my fingers on a tiny screen and hurt my precious hands.

this is a gacha game but unlike others if ur a free player like me ur not completely starved. u can reasonably get important items like 4star cards(the rarest) regularly n while u cant aspire to have a full card collection or anything, u can definitely grind ur way to th upper echelons of players if ur rly dedicated. unless ur filthy rich i dont recommend paying for anything in this game except maybe th monthly subscription thingy bc everything else is insanely expensive.

it sucks that i have to talk personal finances in a game review but this is still my favorite rhythm and i also love the rpg style grinding aspect of it. beautiful game just dont let urself get scammed.

also a great game to play w my wife <3

I've been playing since April 2022, and have logged in almost every single day.

I picked this game up because I found out it has an alternate "Technical" scoring system, in addition to the gacha-based scoring also found in games like Love Live! School Idol Festival, BanG Dream! Girls Band Party, and Project Sekai: Colorful Stage!. Some people are opposed to the idea of it being behind a paywall, I figure the reason it's paywalled is because otherwise nobody would spend money, I decided to take the fee.

I was pleasantly surprised by how well-designed this game is. Hold notes do not require releasing them at the exact moment, charts are genuinely designed around two-finger play, each chart has a radar detailing the chart's characteristics, and there's a wide variety of songs, from the obvious originals that have many different styles from the 9 featured units, to cover songs by the same units, and even non-cover songs from outside sources. I was quite surprised that this game features remixes of retro game songs.

I'll...also admit that I've saved up several times for the gacha. I tell myself that gacha is an inherently exploitative business model, but I couldn't stay away from Merm4id cards...

Story is so-so, I only read stories to get free gacha gems, other than M4's and the side:nova stories.

P.S. If you are that rare combination of "Is a Merm4id simp fan" and "likes shmups", please come see me.

I've been playing this game since it started (EN server) and i really love everything about it.
I'm a F2P player that never expended any real life currency on gacha games and, to this day i have every song currently available and at least 1 4☆ copy of every character on the game (except the newer ones).
Yes, the fact that is a gacha would be one of the main reasons of why some people don't even try to play the game
But i can assure you that if all you want is a fun rhythm game you should try this one
