I was honestly surprised with Append Club Version Vol. 1, as I would rather play most of the music on here than on the original 2ndRemix. It has the Beatmania classics that I enjoy like "e-motion", "5.1.1," "Diving Money," and the JJ Company songs. The step charts are considerably more of a challenge and balanced out with slower music. Different colored arrows instead of the flat arrows is a welcome change, too. I just find the presentation and style to be cooler and aesthetically pleasing. For a spin-off game, I would honestly recommend going out of your way to play this one.
Not sure why this game requires DDR 2nd remix in order to be played since this basically functions as its own game, but whatever. The songlist has a few harder songs than what you could find in DDR 2nd remix, but theres also a lot of slower easier songs to balance it out with. If you like DDR, then like sure theres probably a song or two you'd enjoy here
