The game features adorable anime art and catchy music, creating a delightful and colorful experience.
Gameplay is simple yet engaging, with a variety of mini-games that provide a fun challenge, especially for rhythm game fans.
Despite its short length, the game is polished and enjoyable, making it a great pick for a quick, lighthearted gaming session.

The game feels incomplete, lacking a remix system and having some mini-games that are reused with different rhythms, which can lead to repetition.
Many players found the game too short, with a playtime of around one to two hours, which may not justify the price for some.
Some mini-games have poorly designed cues and timing, making them frustrating to play, particularly for those unfamiliar with rhythm games.

The music in the game is widely praised for its catchy tunes and effective integration with gameplay, reminiscent of "Rhythm Heaven" but enhanced by colorful anime art and engaging animations. While some players noted that certain songs could feel repetitive or lack challenge, the overall variety and quality of the music, along with its clear audio cues, contribute to a fun and relaxing experience. Many players expressed a desire for longer tracks and the ability to purchase the soundtrack, highlighting the memorable nature of the songs.
- “It feels like Rhythm Heaven but with a nice splash (literally) of cute anime art and fun music to go with it.”
- “The music is great though!!”
- “Gorgeous art and music, they went incredibly hard on cute NPC designs.”
- “Most of the songs did match the beat, but some of them seem to just be 'present' as you did things. One of the major problems with a good rhythm game is the lack of mash-ups or boss levels. The skill set is basic, and no challenge, while the guitar game is just annoying without proper assistance or teaching.”
- “The hard part is it's too easy; I dozed off during a song.”
- “Another small complaint is that on a few songs the sound design let down the mini-game.”

The game's story is described as light, cute, and somewhat nonsensical, fitting well with its colorful art style and character designs. While some players find the narrative lackluster and not the main focus of the game, others appreciate its charm and the enjoyable interactions between characters. Overall, the story serves as a fun backdrop to the gameplay, providing a relaxing experience without the need for deep engagement.
- “The art and story are really cute (although it is a little sad near the ending).”
- “I don't want to give spoilers but the story is a little crazy although short, as of this review I finished world 4 and I can tell you that the girls are cute and have good chemistry among each other. The interactions we get of them between stages or when in the overworld are one of the things that make this game such a nice experience.”
- “The story is simple but with a few unexpected beats that wrap up nicely into a fun 'friends' day out' scenario.”
- “The story is not that good in my opinion, but the gameplay more than makes up for it.”
- “If you care about story-driven games, the story that exists in this is a little lackluster – but it's also not the main point of the game, so it's not a notable complaint!”
- “Don't expect a deep story from this.”

The gameplay is a blend of rhythm-based mechanics reminiscent of Rhythm Heaven, complemented by a vibrant art style akin to Puyo Puyo, creating an engaging experience. While the short stages and memorable songs enhance replayability, some players find the pursuit of achievements challenging and the gameplay occasionally lacks a sense of reward. Overall, the expressive visuals and attention to detail contribute positively to the fun, despite some critiques of the story.
- “This game is like if you took the art style and story format of Puyo Puyo and the gameplay of Rhythm Heaven.”
- “Cute rhythm game; during cutscenes or gameplay, the art style and animations are really expressive. They not only add a lot to the personality of the game but are also a necessity since you will rely on a combination of sounds and visual cues to hit the notes. The songs are short but many are memorable, and I wish they were longer. Each stage is less than a minute, which I actually welcome when trying to get perfect scores.”
- “There's so much attention to detail in the art, the music works wonderfully with the gameplay, and the games themselves are fun (if a bit simple most of the time).”
- “It seems easy in theory and gameplay, but getting all the achievements is difficult to obtain in a correct way.”
- “Rhythm Tengoku/Heaven/Paradise style gameplay with Puyo Puyo style visuals and story.”
- “Once upon a time, I dragged a friend along for a game that I knew would not be even remotely aesthetically appealing to them because I knew they'd like the gameplay based on other games they played.”
