This is a new-feeling and really solid rhythm game. I hadn't really come to much in terms of rhythm games since Rock Band ended sadly, and any I tried were typically just too much in terms of mechanics or song library. But Spin Rhythm XD does a good job of making the very easiest mode feel fun, and the skill jumps between each mode feel if not straightforward, at least worth attempting. When you're going in Spin Rhythm XD you are really Going, it feels great. The song library isn't particularly familiar, but there's a nice mix of genres and I found a lot of tracks I really enjoyed and played again for fun even though I wasn't score chasing particularly. I will probably come back to this occasionally but after finishing all the songs on either normal or above-normal difficulty I was starting to struggle a lot with getting through the next skill barrier, so for the moment I'm finished with it.
