The music in the game is widely praised for its excellent soundtrack, which enhances the gameplay experience and is often described as catchy and addictive. Players appreciate the ability to customize songs and the inclusion of a workshop for user-generated content, allowing for a diverse range of soundtracks. However, some reviewers note that the gameplay mechanics do not always sync well with the music, leading to moments where players may need to ignore the beat to succeed.
“The music is amazing, and the gameplay is intense almost all of the time.”
“A wonderfully simple concept with fantastic execution with an amazing soundtrack that is just icing on this indie gem cake.”
“The music is awesome enough that it pushes me to get better and better, just to continue listening to the song (and they put the soundtrack as a free DLC!).”
“The timing is a little off and you don't have to hit it in time with the music, so it's more of a hint than a rule.”
“I bought this game thinking it's a rhythm game, but it's not - the correct timing of the player's button-pressing has nothing to do with the background music.”
“Of course I could play past that point and the video is just to explain what I mean, but what is the point, if you must ignore the music in the background?”

The gameplay is characterized by its simple mechanics and rhythm-based elements, making it both addictive and challenging, particularly for players with less refined reflexes. While the game offers a smooth experience with a great soundtrack, some users noted a frustrating difficulty spike early on that can hinder initial enjoyment. Overall, it is recommended for those who appreciate tough games with solid mechanics and varied level designs.
“The gameplay of 64.0 is oddly remarkable and addicting for such a simple concept.”
“The music is amazing, and the gameplay is intense almost all of the time.”
“Every level has great mechanics and feels very smooth!”
“It's just a complete mess, not even properly teaching you the game's mechanics and suddenly throws a ridiculous difficulty spike at 15 seconds at you, which I just cannot overlook with it being the first level. It's just frustrating because the game gave you really no time to practice or build up to this moment.”
“Sometimes though, the game throws in some spanners in the works, mixing up the gameplay.”
“For currently only £1.99 (at the time of writing this review), I would highly recommend purchasing this game for hours of gameplay and many more hours of hopelessly pressing 'try again' when you fail a level.”
