EU copy played on a Nintendo 3DS XL.
This is an excellent rhythm game - even if you're totally unfamiliar with the FF games and their plots like I am, there's absolutely no denying that the franchise has some of the best, most recogniseable and iconic music of the video-game medium. Even the titles past Nobuo Uematsu's involvement have a fairly solid score of catchy melodies and beautiful harmonies.
The gameplay itself is split into three modes but all pretty much boil down to the same way to play, with taps, swipes and holds being the only method of inputs. It sounds like it would get stale fast, especially in comparison to other rhythm games' methods but the variation of speeds and input requirements coupled with the difficulty options keep your attention span longer than it has any right to. Unlocking your favourite characters and levelling them up is satisfying, even if I never quite figured out the item system and there's a solid pick of tunes you play along the way.
Honestly this is a must-own for the 3DS system.
