  • The game features beautiful visuals and a touching story that resonates with players.
  • The soundtrack is well-composed, featuring remixes of classical music that many players enjoy.
  • Fans of the original mobile version appreciate the opportunity to experience the game on Steam without ads or microtransactions.
  • The controls are poorly designed, making the rhythm gameplay frustrating and difficult to manage, especially on keyboard.
  • Achievements are broken and have not been fixed, leading to player disappointment.
  • The game is considered harder than expected, with many players finding it nearly impossible to complete levels successfully.
  • music
    28 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game features a mix of remixed classical pieces, which some players find both silly and serious, contributing to a unique auditory experience. While the soundtrack is praised for its quality and synchronization with visuals, many players express a desire for more vocal tracks instead of predominantly instrumental music. Overall, the music is considered a strong aspect of the game, enhancing its emotional narrative and gameplay experience.

    • “The amazing visuals and the way they are synchronized to the soundtrack is nothing short of brilliant.”
    • “The music in this game is really well made and composed by really great artists.”
    • “But the game itself has quite a touching story and a very good soundtrack (mostly remixes of famous classical pieces).”
    • “It would have been better if they incorporated more vocal songs instead of the instrumental classical music, which probably explains why I enjoyed Dream 5 so much.”
    • “As far as I'm aware, there are no custom songs for the Steam version as of yet.”
    • “The narcoleptic main character falls asleep immediately after they text (even when he says he's heading out to see her!) and has a dream ignoring reality featuring remixes of classical music so silly they seem like parody but it's meant to be taken seriously.”
  • story
    18 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story in "Lost in Harmony" is described as touching but underdeveloped, with potential for a deeper narrative that remains largely untapped. While the game features strong character chemistry and a decent plot, it suffers from limitations typical of a mobile port, lacking cutscenes and extensive dialogue. Despite these shortcomings, players appreciate the emotional impact of the story and the accompanying soundtrack, making it a worthwhile experience for its price.

    • “In my opinion, they designed two loving characters with terrific chemistry but wasted the potential they had for an in-depth love story.”
    • “However, it is a stupidly cheap game, so you get what you need from this; good music and a decent story that will make you feel sad throughout.”
    • “But the game itself has quite a touching story and a very good soundtrack (mostly remixes of famous classical pieces).”
    • “If you came here for some plot pre-Road 96: Mile 0, there is none.”
    • “You can't expect much from this game's graphics and story since it appears to be a port of a mobile game.”
    • “I only wish they did more with the story; they could have taken the opportunity to remaster or even remake this game to add cutscenes and more dialogue.”
  • graphics
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews; while some users praise the stunning visuals and their synchronization with the soundtrack, others criticize the overall quality, suggesting it feels like a port from a mobile game. Despite the varied opinions, the standout visuals seem to leave a positive impression on many players.

    • “The amazing visuals and the way they are synchronized to the soundtrack is nothing short of brilliant.”
    • “+visuals”
    • “You can't expect much from this game's graphics and story since it appears to be a port of a mobile game.”
    • “The graphics are underwhelming and feel outdated, making the overall experience less enjoyable.”
    • “The visuals lack detail and polish, which detracts from the immersion of the game.”
  • gameplay
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay has been criticized for its poor execution, featuring monotonous autorunner segments and quick-time events that attempt to mimic rhythm games but fall short of delivering an engaging experience.

    • “Terrible gameplay, with barely-rhythmic autorunner segments and parts resembling DDR that are really more like quick time events.”
  • monetization
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game is a direct port of a mobile title, notably lacking the ads and microtransactions typically associated with mobile games, which may lead to a more straightforward experience but also limits expectations for monetization features.

    • “This is a pretty straightforward port of a mobile game, but without the ads and microtransactions, so don't expect too much.”
  • emotional
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game is praised for its touching story and an evocative soundtrack, primarily featuring remixes of well-known classical pieces, which enhance the emotional experience.

    • “The game itself has quite a touching story and a very good soundtrack, mostly remixes of famous classical pieces.”
