- “Beat the Song is an interesting and catchy game that will definitely keep you entertained.”
- “You actually are playing the song in this game.”
- “You want to rerun songs again and again to play them perfectly, because then it will feel so much better when it all comes together.”
- “The game just blanks out the lanes that aren't used, meaning the key setup depending on the song would technically need to be different for me to feel comfortable, but you cannot set it up per amount of lanes the song uses either, which is a pain, and it also doesn't tell you beforehand how many keys a song will be in.”
- “Very unsatisfying and the songs aren't that great either.”
- “This game is not fun to play and has two horrible free songs; one sounds like garbage 2005 pop music and the other sounds like Andrew Huang forgot what music was but got super drunk and tried to make music.”
