Be careful - when trying to bring your save data to device number 7, the support staff does nothing but spout delays and excuses when trying to unregister your old devices, something which should be resolvable in a matter of seconds if they were worth their salt. The save data only has a 6 device limit per account. So, if you ever have to upgrade your device (which is often) and you want to access the content you have already paid for, they will resist you. Not good for business!

Enjoyed the game quite a lot. Problem is, I could never register a TAITO ID and so as a result, I have now spent at least 20 dollars on this game that I will not be getting back because I got a new device, as I was required to by my service provider. So keep that in mind if you decide you want to try this out, you might find some difficulty upgrading your device and keeping your progress(and purchases).

It's weird, but in a good way. Pros to the game: It's unique, keeps you interested with good visuals, easy to understand. Cons to the game: basically every song costs money, can get trippy in modes except easy, backgrounds tend to be too bright. I'd recommend this game to people who are bored of how most rhythm games these days are formatted (pjsk-type gameplay) and want a unique experience!

love this game been playing it since I was a teen but I'm afraid the developers have abandoned it. there hasn't been an update since 2021. Ive had it downloaded for a while and decided to get back into it but the game is perpetually stuck on a loading screen with a bar that doesn't fill. I uninstalled and reinstalled and it didn't fix it so I'm assuming it needs an update/bug fix. seriously hope that this game hasn't been abandoned as it's meant so much to me over the years

As a fan of both the steam version and arcade version I was hoping I could access some arcade songs through this. Instead I was met with frustratingly bad controls that are hard to hit, a terrible interface, and hardly any good music compared to the other two versions. This game is a husk, what else could I expect for free. Disappointing.

This game is fun but eilispy warning to others. So many songs to listen, play and bop to! I really love the rhythm and song packs that are there to but I wish there was a settings option though to turn music or sound up. I wish there was also the ad lib sounds when you get an ad lib. Glad this game is still getting updated also.

I liked the arcade one better. The music they give you to start with gets really obnoxious, along with the fact that it took me 20 minutes of playing the tutorial to find out that the new songs are only gained through rewards. I mainly got this to play vocaloid songs, but it's 5 dollars to pay for a pack. Even if you spend 5 dollars, if you were to reinstall it somewhere else, it doesn't save your purchase. Long story short, play the arcade version. It is better.

This game is really fun, but can be insanely hard, like, make me contemplate my video game skill near impossible. But awesome game, looks great, fun, really entertaining, and lovable. It gives you something to do. It's a score game, not a completion game, and it's retro styled. It's got lots of awesome Japanese music like Vocaloid stuff and more for purchase. I'm not a fan of the game's remixes at all, but hey, I'm still playing it so they did something right. That's up to you though, you might like the music. I say give it a shot either way, you got nothing to lose, and after you've gotten used to the controls you can take a quick look through the shop to see if there's any songs from outside stuff you like. OH WAIT- one thing... After you've put your account on 6 devices, you have to do a whole back and forth emailing thing with the company. That's a total pain and I'm not looking forward to doing that again when I get a new phone. Be very careful about which devices you register on.

I played the Steam version first. Mobile is older, so it can be rough, but I recommend giving it a try since it's free to play. Downsides: About half of the free songs are from when Shohei Tsuchiya was still learning what music is. Interface often has layout loading in a few seconds after the text/data. DLC is very expensive for a phone game, especially considering I already bought a lot of the same songs on PC. But that's just if you want all of it. Also, a lot of the charts are hard to see.

Really fun! 2 issues though. 1. kinda slow or laggy in menus. Trying to collect my rewards for level upside takes multiple tries but its that big of a deal. 2. The visuals are really cool but sometimes block your view. Overall it's worth a try. They have adlibs which are fun points for ghost tapping at certain points, and the songs are challenging.

The game plays well, but the UI is incredibly buggy in a way I feel like I haven't seen in a game in more than a decade. It just really takes me out of the experience to play through a song and then immediately after see what looks like a broken webpage that hasn't loaded properly. It doesn't help much that the UI doesn't look great even when it is loaded in properly- too much black and fonts that feel like they're trying too hard to look "futuristic". The UI of the arcade game looks far better!

The songs are decent, and most of the mechanics are good and easy to understand. The biggest problem this app has is its user interface, it's time consuming to scroll through songs, blindingly bright, and often times difficult to understand. There are also some acsessablity problems with the flashing lights, and it just makes your eyes hurt after a while. The ad-lib mechanic is difficult to understand and often makes you miss notes because you're trying to find them. Would reccomend.

Love this game! Very simple to pick up but challenging to master, has a lot of good songs. Not epileptic friendly, and the coaster gimmick can cause mild motion sickness until you get used to it. The DLC cost everyone complains about in reviews comes out to about a dollar a song. Despite playing on some garbage phones, I've never had any performance issues. My only gripe is that I wished there was a random song selection like in the arcade versions. Great introduction to the series regardless!

I REALLY want to give this game 5 stars. The gameplay, while basic, is really interesting. It's almost a one button rhythm game, but the real draw of the game is the ad libs. On every track there are invisible, optional notes you can hit just by staying on the beat, and it gives the gameplay a nice flow of trying to stay on the beat and maybe guess where the next ad-lib will be while hitting the notes. But no matter what I do, the game crashes on some songs on some difficulties.

Really cool and unique gameplay compared to other rhythm games. However I really don't like the song selections. I find 95% I've played so far to be pretty trash. The paid music packs would probably feature a lot better music. Along with that, the notes can be a little difficult to time. Sometimes notes come at a speed you barely have time to react too, and with all the crazy effects going on in the background it can be hard to spot some incoming notes.

Fun but the menu is overwhelming. The design is awkward due to it loading like a list but even after that, everything looks cluttered and unorganized. Going through the ? doesn't help either as it doesn't thoroughly explain how everything works, and changing the avatar proves difficult as it is visually difficult to see during gameplay.

This game has an excellent selection of songs and some amusing game play mechanics. However, since this game was released a few years ago, the UI is long overdue for an overhaul, preferably based on Groove Coaster for Steam, the original Groove Coaster 2 for arcades, or Groove Coaster 4. Call it a nitpick, but using Android 2.3 dialogs is a big no-no in this day and age.

Great mobile port of a fantastic rhythm game, comes with a lot of good music free with more for available for purchase, simple controls, great range of difficulty, awesome visuals, -very- occasionally has imperfect tap detection Sidenote: while not available for free, there's a decent amount of quality Vocaloid music available for purchase in packs, if that's your thing =D Update: this is a super minor thing that doesn't really affect my opinion of the game, but before the last update (which apparently tweaked the UI a little), whenever you would get a No Miss or Full Chain, it would display that right after the last note before moving to the clear screen, which it doesn't do anymore. I really liked having that there, made it feel just a little more triumphant and the payoff a little more instant when you perfect a song

Its a really fun game, since I love music and the special effects are cool and it's easy to play. The only things I would change about it are, adding more free songs and adding samples so that players can decide whether or not they like it before downloading it. I also think it would be cool if, I can add my own music from my phone to it and I also would add more of a variety of genres besides electronic dance music. I like that genre, but it can get too repetitive after a while.

Rhythm game is fun and there are lots of good songs and additional song packs you can buy. I would give the gameplay 5 stars. The UI is awful and you can't reset your taito ID without emailing support and wasting a week or more. I lost all the song packs I purchased when I switched phones and can't get them back so I have to give 2 stars.
