“if you've ever played with a hand-held game of Simon by milton bradley (and didn't rage afterwards), this game's for you. i like the concept of adding rhythm to the old MB idea but its required REACTION time to press buttons is TOO rigid…”

“I had to put the controller down after 10 frustrating minutes. Disappointing. I play a LOT of music/rhythm games but this one is badly pulled off. Playing on anything harder than "Normal", it's impossible to tell which direction enemies…”
