People of Note

Feels a lot like Pokemon Colosseum and Gale of Darkness - obviously it's rhythm inspired instead of creature collector. Pros - Chill nostalgic vibes - (mostly) Great and diverse soundtrack - Musical-like story mode - Clear visuals - Appropriate amount of side quests - side quests are not the main attraction - Simple combat system with a surprising amount of depth hidden - Skill system - cool amplification mechanics with the songstones and different instruments Cons: - No fast travel - Rhythm aspect is mostly irrelevant and way too easy before the late game. Even on hard mode. - Customization have little to no choices behind them. You're basically just equpping the stuff with the biggest numbers on them. - No fast travel. 2026 btw. - A few of the puzzles are genuinely ass. e.g. the Water gimmick is not proberly explained. There's also one that forces you to find a location, but you haven't been to this location yet - they clearly tried to trick you into thinking you had. - They are trying way way too hard with the references to musical theory - For some reason I cannot check moves or status effects in the combat screen - Unnecessarily complex skill leveling system that is also 90% irrelevant. Just use a simple skill point system like everyone else? - Sometimes it feels like the difficulty scaling is way off. Some stuff are way too easy, while other stuff are almost impossible. - In a game based on sound and where it's actually extremely important to have the music turned on for the full experience, some of the tracks are completely unbearable. And that's not aimed at the music itself, but the pitch in some of these are so excruciatingly high that I had to take my headset off. The Folklore forest, the ocean, classical music city. - The final song is severely underwhelming. The whole story showcases how pop can be mixed with different sub genres to create something unique. All the songs are pop inspired by one of these subgenres and feel very different from one another. Final boss fight also features one of the sickest mashups in the entire game. 5 Minutes later, they end the game with the most generic high school musical type of pop song I've ever heard. And there's no post game. - Can you just fix the fcking travel system omfg did any of you devs even bother playing it yourselves? Overall I'd say the game is definitely worth it. It's a great time and I loved playing through it. I'd get it on sale though. If the devs can't be bothered to fix glaring issues I can't be bothered to pay full prize.

I'm really glad to see that turn-based RPGs are having a bit of a resurgence. As an RPG it's a touch on the casual side but that's honestly a breath of fresh air sometimes. The musical numbers can be a bit cheesy at times but I always enjoyed the show. Combat is fun. There is light reliance on timing, but it's pretty forgiving overall. Being able to choose who to act with and in what order on each turn makes for some really flexible strategy. A nice touch. The musical puns are numerous, goofy, and deliciously corny. The references to well-known artists cracked me up continuously. The art style and environment variety never failed to tickle my eye bones. Overall, I highly recommend checking this game out. I had a blast.

This game is really worth giving a chance if you're into JRPG's, there's some innovation there. Overall very fun game, not perfect but I do not regret 100% ing it. Story is pretty generic, but the gameplay and music more than make up for it. Also the puzzles are surprisingly fun/challenging. Would absolutely play the follow up game if it is to come.

Респект всем участвующим в создании игрульки. Из плюсов: - песни/катсцены (в особенности я в шоке была, когда в конце стали петь сами создатели игрульки) - сюжетная линия - микс боевки, новеллы и квестов И в целом понравилась суть, из-за чего вообще началась проблема - сохранение "традиций" и создание "нового". Я, конечно же, считаю, что нельзя полностью стирать/отменять традиции. Чел, если тебе не нравится школа, просто смени её))) А вообще так как в череде отмен традиций будет размываться культура и останется только серое пустое будущее, поэтому фу быть как злодей. Хотя с другой стороны я приверженец сюжетов, где гг готов пожертвовать миром ради человека/острова (атака титанов), но не здесь))) Забыть традиции я тебе не дам, катись подальше! Я не люблю боёвки, поэтому спасибо за возможность их скипать. Изначально я думала, что бои в этой игруле будут больше похоже на ритм игру, где вовремя надо нажимать asdw, а это оказалась пошаговая боевка как в экспедиции 33, что немного не моё, так как я впринципе драться не люблю)) P.S. ну и конечно же я шипперю Каденцию с Арко, поэтому буду додумывать их совместную жизнь после того, как он понесет наказание за то, шо натворил

I wish I liked it more, the premise is great, but the game is just ok IMO

As a K-pop stan, I'm thrilled to finally have a game where I can beat up other K-pop stans!

Overall I had a good time with the game. I can tell the devs all had a lot of fun sprinkling in humor and music puns/references EVERYWHERE. there were so many that got laughs out of me and my stream chat. + the humor, puns, references were really funny and light-hearted + some absolute banger songs (sorry girl and anything with sharp were my favs, also free country was so good, as a metal fan i loved everything in the durandis section) + great voice acting cast + the puzzles both in the overworld and puzzle battles were fun and inventive but still simple enough that i didn't feel frustrated. (other than the final puzzle battle) - too much exposition in the songs take away from what the songs could be by themselves - i wish there were fast travel options - character development felt rushed/inconsistent at times where it felt like some character arcs were resolved too quickly and didn't feel earned. Overall takeaway is, if you want a shorter rpg experience that is light-hearted fun and full of music references. This is the game for you.

Bom, tem seus defeitos, principalmente no quesito rpg em si. (não vou lista, mor preguiça) Mas deu pra ver que o pessoal fez com paixão.

This game... no, this MUSICAL disguised as a game is stupendous! The music is top notch, the gameplay is tremendous, and it has a lot of potential to become a stepping stone for a franchise on it's own. Someone give Iridium Studios and Annapurna Interactive flowers!
