it's one of those games i just never really fully put the time into learning but i always seem to play it whenever i have nothing else to do which is strange.
it'll probably be the only mobile rhythm game i'll ever play because it's just got a certain charm that other mobile rhythm games don't have, and i think that is passion. i can open the app and within 3 clicks im already in a song, they know what i want! also another great testament to this is thumb vs index finger playing. i think in the long run, trying to cater to all crowds tends to be more of a chore and costs more to develop, having to spend more time thinking about charting for 2 groups, the scrubby casual player who just plays with thumbs and try hards who whip out their tablet and use their index fingers and play at home, which seems to be the most optimal way to play and also happen to be the ones who spend the most money on the game and who they will cater to. every single chart i've played (highest is like 10+) has always had me in mind, the casual thumb player and i really appreciate that, no chart feels like a cop out. i think it proves to be one of the least predatory for your attention (but maybe for your money) mobile rhythm games that i'm honestly willing to spend money just to play new songs. it's the perfect game to play on a 30 minute train ride to work every other day and i love seeing my improvement over time, a great way to stimulate the brain for an eventless train ride, never feeling obliged to complete "dailies". i'm definitely not good at this game and i can barely pass 10+'s but just realising how far i've come without dedicating my life or that much energy into the game, to me is satisfying. i'm sure i could substitute this for any other rhythm game but i love the music, the collabs, the charting, the mechanics, the fact that i can play with just my thumbs, not have to try too hard to have fun and not to mention constant updates and new songs. you do unforunately have to sink money into this game if you want to get the most out of it, but that's not to say it's not worth it. i think a good game deserves money! i would easily spend 50+ for a game like this, hell i spend more on dj max and arguable i enjoy this way more and has more mileage having only spend around $15 aud, and that is surely to increase over time. i didn't play the story or anything so i wont comment, also don't really care about it but hey if you're into that stuff then have fun with it.
my favourite mobile rhythm game, possibly the best in the biz.
