The music aspect of the game has received mixed feedback, with some users feeling misled by the emphasis on custom music, expecting a rhythm game experience. While the gameplay is enjoyable and visually stimulating, the process of adding personal music is cumbersome and often results in muted audio, detracting from the overall experience. Ultimately, the game is not primarily focused on music, but rather serves as a fun workout option where players can listen to their own tracks externally.
“Great way to work out and to listen to your own music.”
“Still, the gameplay itself is fun and the visuals are stimulating without it being tied to music.”
“Not a huge thing - this isn't a music game per se but it just means running some music externally.”
“I was under the assumption this would be a rhythm game, like Audio Shield, since it had an emphasis on custom music.”
“My only negative is that the option to add your own music doesn't work.”
“Doing so for me simply mutes any music, leaving only effects.”

Players express a mix of frustration and enjoyment regarding the emotional aspect of the game. The high stakes of missing a move can be punishing, yet the thrill of successfully touching lit cubes in rapid succession creates a fun and engaging experience reminiscent of classic games like Simon.
