The music in "Invector: Rhythm Galaxy" has received mixed reviews, with players appreciating the diverse tracklist but criticizing its lack of cohesive theme and fit with the gameplay. While some enjoy the modern electronic pop and the potential for future DLC, others feel that many songs do not resonate with the game's aesthetic, leading to frustration during play. Overall, the soundtrack's variety may appeal to some, but it leaves others wanting a more consistent musical experience.
- “The modern electronic pop music fits in really well with the game's aesthetic and I really enjoy them.”
- “The tracklist is much more diverse, which on one hand makes it where I'm certainly going to replay more songs than others just based off personal preference, but it has me optimistic that if this game gets enough support from the community, there'll be DLC that offers the same level of variety.”
- “Game play is very smooth but challenging, track list is very diverse so be prepared to play through some songs that might seem like a drag, scenery is beautiful, and it very much takes me back to when I played the first one.”
- “Biggest complaint (like some others on here) is that the music has trouble fitting a theme.”
- “I know music tastes are subjective but this set list is absolute garbage the whole way through.”
- “While the track list is varied, the songs lack a specific feel or overall theme that goes with the gameplay, which makes me feel like I'll only really enjoy replaying maybe a third of the track list.”

The gameplay in Invector: Rhythm Galaxy is generally well-received, with many players noting its fun and engaging mechanics that are reminiscent of Avicii Invector.

Overall, despite some flaws, the gameplay is considered enjoyable and worth recommending, with suggestions for more thematic music to enhance the experience.

- “While the track list is varied, the songs lack a specific feel or overall theme that goes with the gameplay, which makes me feel like I'll only really enjoy replaying maybe a third of the track list.”
- “With the gameplay itself, the various styles in each track are pretty cool, but sometimes the UI makes it hard to figure out what you're supposed to be looking for, and I wish there was a sound, or a louder sound to help you time your button presses.”
- “As it stands, the game's not for me, but it does a good job at not overwhelming you with the visual effects, so I can't say it's a bad game, just an underwhelming one gameplay-wise.”

The story in this rhythm game is generally viewed as disposable and lacking depth, serving primarily as a means to unlock additional songs rather than as an engaging narrative.

While some appreciate the effort compared to previous titles, the overall consensus is that the story does not enhance the gameplay experience.
- “As far as the story, it feels like they're trying to match the songs they have to what's going on in the conversations, but I don't know any of these characters and there's no buildup; it just starts with you already on a journey.”
- “The tracklist can be a bit hit or miss depending on your personal tastes, and it is a bit of a bummer that a large portion of the tracklist is locked behind an otherwise serviceable story/campaign mode.”
- “A rhythm game with a story and a mixed bag of music.”
- “The story is nothing to write home about, but I guess it's nice they included at least something.”
- “As far as the story goes, it feels like they're trying to match the songs to what's going on in the conversations, but I don't know any of these characters and there's no buildup; it just starts with you already on a journey.”
- “I cannot recommend this game. I beat the story, and the only thing it left me feeling is, 'Why are there 2 KSI songs in a rhythm game?'”
