We tried, but it just didn't click

Really cool concept, but we just couldn't get into the music. After level 1 it gets so confusing that we sort of just bs thru it until we give up. Also, the videos are impossible to follow (but interesting to watch!)

Gets too hard too fast

This game has a good concept but is almost impossible after the first level. It's fun until it starts telling you you're going TOO FAST! Or TOO SLOW! No, I didn't come here to be told that "I'm not doing it right!" And that in order to do anything beyond the first and second level it requires practice and doing it over and over to progress. How is that fun? It is just frustrating. It would be improved with easier dancing and help with the tricky moves. And, what is up with all the levels being locked?! I paid for this app, let me try the other levels!

2 players needed

Can NOT play with 1 person. That being said it is a really innovative game for 2 people. Sure it might be $1 more than it should be for a 2 person only game but keep this in your arsenal for a good go-to impromptu date. It gets you closer to your partner better than a dinner and movie. It will keep you both laughing and learning together. It's a lot cheaper and reusable. The makers did a bad job with the preview pictures (2 girls dancing together = :/ ) but if you've read this far it's really worth while getting for its originality and innovativeness. Directions are not very clear, but think of the circle like an open mouth and the sphere's opening like another mouth; since there's 2 players there's 2 mouths making a conversation.

No Dance

No Dancing element. just rotate the phone.

Special

Nothing else like this out there. Fun to invite family and friends to play the tutorial, and see them dance about and come to feel good about their skills. Feels like the difficulty ramps up a lot after the first couple levels, but there's nothing wrong with that -- just gotta work at it a bit. :) and learn to trust your partner.

Awesome game and cool idea!

I tested this game at PAX East 2014 and I've been waiting for it to come out ever since! This game has definitely been fun to play! What a cool concept for a multiplayer game using 1 phone, not to mention all of the work that had to go into it! Definitely worth it! :)

Something Different

Such an interesting "game". Takes a bit to really grasp by once you and your partner have it down it's tons of fun. Just in case it's not obvious this is a strictly two player experience.

Beautiful inventive game

Tons of fun at a party! It works with airplay so you can pipe the sound through speakers so everyone can hear while you dance. It gets pretty challenging so if you want to master it you'll need some patience and a cooperative partner!
