The music in the game has received mixed reviews, with many players noting that the audio is often poorly synced with the gameplay, leading to a frustrating experience. While the soundtrack consists of around 15 tracks that some find enjoyable, the limited selection and repetitive nature of the songs detract from the overall enjoyment, with many players wishing for the ability to add their own music. Additionally, the gameplay mechanics often fail to align with the rhythm of the music, making it feel disconnected and less engaging for a rhythm-based game.

- “The colourful neon choices and dance music make for a nice relaxing rhythm game.”
- “The audio timing in this game is so terrible it does not line up with the songs at all.”
- “For a rhythm game, almost all the songs are out of sync.”

The gameplay of the game is a mixed bag, featuring a variety of modes that incorporate unique mechanics such as typing and mouse control, which can be both fun and challenging.

While the game offers an interesting take on rhythm challenges, its execution often falls short, leading to frustration for some players.
- “Developed by egamer and published by SA Industry, the game presents itself as a rhythm challenge, but it quickly reveals that it is just as interested in experimenting with input styles as it is in delivering traditional rhythm mechanics.”
- “Instead of relying solely on timed button presses or directional inputs, Slash It Ultimate layers its gameplay around modes that involve typing, key tapping, mouse control, and pattern matching.”
- “The gameplay is really challenging and it gets addicting.”

- “The game mechanics are quite glitchy, adding unnecessary difficulty to the game.”

The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with some praising the bright, electrifying visuals that enhance the gameplay experience and sync with the soundtrack, creating an engaging rhythm challenge.

- “The lack of textures is a method that lazy developers often use to disguise their lack of talent or interest in doing the graphics properly, trying to pass it off as 'art' or 'we made it look bad on purpose', which really isn't something gamers should have to put up with.”
- “In the rhythm modes (arrow, mouse, space), the visuals are often, if not always, desynced from the audio with no way to adjust it, which makes this unviable as a rhythm game.”
- “The game has quite a modern vibe due to the graphical and bright colors that can be weary for the eyes when you decide to play for a long session.”

- “While there are some elements that could enhance replayability, they feel superficial and don't add much depth to the experience.”

The humor in the game is largely derived from its absurdly high number of achievements, with many being trivial tasks like pressing a key multiple times, which players find amusing and entertaining.
