This game is a slog to get through. Gameplay is fun, but wears off after a few songs. Have to play this in bursts, because long stretches just aren't fun. It's on PS4, so it is a priority. Honestly, feel like speeding through it to reach the end and see those story cutscenes.

This was a wonderful game. I'm a big fan of Kingdom Hearts and it was nice to play a game that was just the music.

another adventure though the main story of kingdom hearts. I always love the music and the gameplay was fun if not always challenging.

I've always kinda seen the KH music as store-brand Final Fantasy music, so none of it's ever really stuck with me apart from Dearly Beloved and the Utada contributions, because I love her. So, I wasn't really hyped for this, but figured I'd at least give the demo a shot.

Mechanics aren't bad. You're auto-running forward and you basically just press one, two, or three buttons at once to attack enemies, depending on how many are in a line. You can jump or jump and glide for certain notes, and there are also some special boxes that make you auto-attack with magic or whatever.

I dunno, Theatrhythm was just too perfect and spoiled me. I like rhythm games, but I'm really picky about them. (Also, this game is $60. No fuckin' way.)

I really just want a rhythm game with a bunch of Tales music. :(
