The music aspect of the game has received mixed reviews, with users appreciating the easy custom song import feature and the ability to customize song difficulty. However, many express frustration over the lack of well-known songs, bugs in song mapping, and the overall quality of the original music, which some find annoying. While the game shows potential with ongoing updates to improve custom song support, players desire more robust music options and better charting tools.
“You can add your own custom songs (or songs you can port from other games with the right tools).”
“The game mechanics are well made and the support of custom songs is really nice.”
“They keep putting out updates to improve custom song support and the devs look like they're pouring in a lot of effort to make this a really great game.”
“Ass game, no way to turn off annoying incel music in the lobby. Do not buy.”
“This game is now a full release, and I think it shouldn't be for customs. It can be a pain when two of the same songs have different mappings. The game will mix the difficulties together and play both tracks regardless of which version you picked. Even if a song has two difficulties, it will only let you pick one, and for songs that have guitar and bass, it will not let you pick; it will pull one mapping or both, and even if the game pulled both, it will only let you pick one. So no, I can't say this game is worth it as of now.”
“$25 is asking quite a lot for the content currently in the game, which, aside from a handful of songs with varying difficulties, isn't a lot.”

The gameplay is engaging and well-designed, offering both quick sessions and longer playtime, with solid mechanics reminiscent of traditional rhythm games. However, some players find the tracks uninspiring, which can hinder progression, while the inclusion of custom songs and accessibility options enhances the experience. Overall, the game provides a fun and immersive rhythm experience, especially with its emphasis on full-body engagement.
“One of the best VR games to just throw on for either a bit of quick gameplay or longer sessions.”
“The gameplay is fun once you get into it.”
“Much more exaggerated movements and full body engagement really immersed me in the gameplay.”
“The game mechanics are well made and the support of custom songs is really nice, although there is a huge problem with the gameplay.”
“My biggest struggle with this game is the actual gameplay.”
“Guitar gameplay feels how you would expect coming from other controller-based rhythm games.”
