Cool game

I really liked the game

Forget mobile, All time Great

This is one of the greatest video games of all time. Period. I say this as a life long gamer who plays on PC and every console since 2000. This mobile port is perfection and the controls are intuitive and you simply get better and better the more you play. I can’t wait to try this in VR but if you enjoy gaming you owe it to yourself to try this absolute magnum opus of the medium. Massive kudos to the dev team.

Absolutely Beautiful Game

The visuals, the music, the synchronization, the tension.. amazing work.

Nope

Eigentlich Rhythmus-Spiel, da zu random. Und die Touch-Gesten funktionieren nich zuverlässig und haben logischerweise einen längeren Weg. Durch den rasch steigenden Schwierigkeitsgrad, ist es quasi unmöglich bzw. mach keinen Spaß. Wenn man verliert, nur weil Springen nicht richtig funktioniert, wird man nur frustriert. Zudem ist es manchmal auch etwas unfair, da man nicht alles erkennen kann.
