Dancing Line is a rhythmic musical game that challenges your reflexes and musical hearing. Each level tells a story through a unique landscape—from winter to the desert—where the environment evolves as you play. By tapping the screen to make sharp turns, you must guide an ever-growing line through obstacles, relying on the beat of the music to time your movements perfectly. It’s an addictive test of focus and harmony.

Our Expert Score

92/100

Dancing Line is a masterclass in minimalist rhythm gaming. It takes the simple concept of a zig-zagging line and elevates it through breathtaking environmental storytelling and a soundtrack that is second to none. Each level is more than just a challenge; it's a sensory journey where the music doesn't just accompany the gameplay—it dictates it. You aren't just reacting to visual cues; you are feeling the beat to know when to turn.

The difficulty curve is steep but fair. There’s a profound sense of 'flow' when you finally sync with a difficult track like 'The Storm' or 'The Earth.' The visual transitions—like a forest blooming or a cathedral crumbling around you—are synchronized perfectly with the musical swells. While the stamina system and ads can occasionally break the immersion, the sheer quality of the compositions makes it one of the most artistic experiences available on mobile. It is a game that demands your full attention and rewards it with pure, rhythmic bliss.

This game can relax you wether you are mad or sad or just very frustrated
Wed Aug 29 2018 i luv these games

I can’t say anything about this game except “wow”. This game is like the best relaxing and ever. I play it nonstop. Once you pick it up you can’t put it down. I love all the songs and the animations that are by it. I hope you guys add more levels. I admit I’m not the greatest at this game but I’m not the worst. I play it on my cousins phone and I’m like wow this is the best game you have on your phone. I got this game on mom’s phone and I can’t stop playing it. Although I do get some ads and glitches but those are minor. I really like the tunes they come with and I like to play it loud because their so soothing. This is one of my favorite games in the whole App Store so please pleeeeease get this app if your like me and enjoy the awesomeness of this game and it’s animations and most of all its songs. I am so happy that this game exists. I don’t know what I would do without it. For the last time I request anyone who reads this to pleeeeeease get this game and feel as relaxed as I am. I’m not just doing this for me but the game and you guys who may feel cranky and grumpy. If you feel like that and play this game then you will feel as fresh as an apple. Sorry if you don’t like apples. If you lose the round then you won’t be that mad because you will have the effect of the songs on you. And if you do I’m sorry. I rest my case and say for I promise the last time to pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaseget this app.

The Best Game on the App Store
Sun Apr 07 2019 i just want this posted

I’m not a very good player, but this game is still my favorite. The graphics are pleasing and the music is beautiful. Even when I’m doing horrible at the game itself, I still manage to feel more at peace, refreshed and happier in general after playing. I could play the same level 100 times and still feel entertained. There is quite a surprising amount of diversity in the game and many levels. With that said, the ads were incredibly annoying in this game specifically. But I wasn’t bothered paying $5.99 to remove them. This is such a great app that I think it’s a catch it’s even free, so I feel justified in spending to remove the ads. There’s also a little bit of lag, but it doesn’t really bother me. The push to make players spend on packs and levels and coins is a little bit obnoxious however, and it’s my only genuine complaint. It’s annoying trying to figure out if you won something from the level and you’re getting it for free, or if clicking on it is going to ask for a password to charge your card or bring you to a 60 second ad. The negatives don’t balance out the positives though — it’s a great game. I would be pleased to see an update to clear the confusion between messy advertisement of expensive skin packs and actual earnings from collecting diamonds or passing a level though. I’m genuinely happy with this app and feel grateful for how amazing it is now.

Really fun and addicting but to many ads.

So a couple years ago I started playing this game and forgot about it. I later remembered the game and decided to see if it had changed much and there where new levels but it was pretty similar. I enjoy this game a lot and it is very fun and addicting. If you’re looking for a little challenge this game has it. But my one problem is the ads. After almost every time you die there is a 30 second ad! There are ads everywhere and it makes the game feel boring and the ads really get annoying. Each ad drags on and they can happen with 30 seconds in between 2 of them because you died. The only way to get rid of the ads is by paying for a subscription that cost 8$ A WEEK! I don’t want to spend that much money on a game I pick up on my phone when I’m bored. Eventually I will probley stop paying this game again and forget about it so paying that much WEEKLY for an online game is not worth it. In total it ads of to about $32 a month and $384 a YEAR! This is way to expensive for a game that you do just for fun. The subscription just unlocks all the levels gives you unlimited revives and no ads. It’s not worth it! So ultimately having to deal with the ads gets annoying so I will probley quit this game eventually because I am getting tired of the ads. This game has more potential and I understand that’s how the developers make money but there are just too many ads!!!

Great, but could use some adjustments

I’ve been playing this game for about two years and it’s an overall great game, although until recently, I’ve been having trouble with lag and loading. In the case of many levels, (the sailors tale, the spring festival, the chaos, the legend of assassin, etc.) I’ve found there to be problems with gameplay. I would highly suggest that you add more options in the settings, like disable shake. I understand that shake effects are incorporated to increase difficulty, though I’m a very skilled player and the shake just creates annoying and unstable gameplay. Another thing that would be sufficient would be the inclusion of ad personalization. I am a mobile player and I keep getting the same ads about Disneyland, Klondike, Wordscapes, Angry Birds, and it makes me outrageously irritated. I would also prefer there to be fewer 30 seconds and over ads. I feel as if they waste time that I could spend enjoying the game. About the ads again, whenever an ad is about to show up, the level that I’m on glitches, trying to load the ad, which turns out to have better quality than the game itself. Unlike many others, I know that you need the money from the ads, although I want it to be more fair, meaning that one ad doesn’t completely corrupt the screen. Those were all of my suggestions, and I hope that you have carefully read this and acknowledged my issues. The game is very good, but a few tweaks would make it almost perfect. Thank you.

Please remake this game in a better way

I have been playing this game since the pre-alpha days. Let me start off by saying that this game had so much potential but the developers got so greedy and money hungry that it went all downhill. Back when this game with first launched. There were 3 levels, and were much harder to complete you had to unlock each level by completing the previous level. When the beginning was removed and the piano was added that’s when it started to become a big hit on the App Store. back at this time there were no ads and you didn’t have to pay for anything. After more levels have been added over time we got another UI update. and that’s when things start to go downhill. When this whole you UI update happened the developers start putting ads in to the game and made you pay for a no ad an infinity cube bundle in 2018, they made the paths for all of the levels, much wider, which caused confusion for some new players, because they didn’t know where exactly to tap. Every time you fail, you have to watch an ad, every time you wanna play a new level you have to watch an ad. and then in 2020 a bunch of levels were removed and canceled and the game has stopped updating ever since. i’m really hoping someone out there can make a new dancing line with the old UI and no ads.

my favorite game!

I remember I first downloaded this game in 7th grade, 2017, when it had first come out. I was immediately drawn in by it, and it seemed like the only game I could always play and never get tired of. Now I’m a senior in 2022, and this game has become my comfort game, I play it any time I feel anxious and it instantly makes me feel better. As a person interested in the arts as well as technology and graphic design, I was drawn in by how well the game was designed, whether it was each song and it’s graphics, the different tools used to play the level, the inclusion of helpful lines to know when to tap, or the wide selection of music genres. I have completed almost every song perfectly and finished all the challenges, and still participate in the weekly challenge to get notes. Every time I feel stressed, I just open the app and play “The Chinese Garden”, and every single time I am fascinated by the music, the graphics, and the hidden gem that can only be achieved by tapping the beats correctly. This game is a visual representation of the combination of the arts, computer science, and graphic design, all in one. I am truly blessed to have had the chance to find this game, and use it as an inspiration for my future. If ever I get the chance to communicate with the team behind making this game, it would be an honor!

Why do you do this?!
Fri Dec 14 2018 Averydisatisfiedplayer

I would've considered this my favorite game, but there are some major issues. The first problem that you will find on many of these reviews is the ads. The amount of ads in this game is astounding, it's almost like a currency. You get an ad every time you die, and every time you want to get something without money, and at the worst possible times too. The other thing is the lives. I think that the game shouldn't have lives, because personally, it makes the game a lot less enjoyable. I would like the game a lot better if it didn't have lives. Every time you want to get more lives, you have to watch another ad all the way through just to get a chance of getting lives from a chest. The last thing is the insane amount of glitches. I mean, it's crazy! Sometimes the parts of the level you can't control glitch out, and you die, and you have to go through the painful process of watching ten billion ads. The other thing is when it just freezes, and the song goes ahead of where you are, which makes it really hard to focus on what you're doing. Then it won't let you turn sometimes, like it'll just keep going straight when you tap it, and you die, again. In short, I think that they should have less ads, try to be more attentive when building levels, and fix the way that you get lives, or just remove them all together. Edit: I found a way to make it so that the ads can't come up. All you have to do is turn off the wifi, so that they can't play and you get to play the game without any interruptions. It makes the game much nicer :).

You were on a roll
Mon Oct 16 2017 Jnuck83

OK so I have been every single level in this game except for the new level“All about us“. I love this game in the sense that is addicting, but also very simple and not hard to understand. I feel like you guys were on a Roll with all the levels until you made the sailors tail. The sailors tail is a nice level but you left a lot of blank spaces and the level could’ve been much nicer if you would’ve just waited a week or two to release it and added a lot more smaller details on the sides and places like that. Every single section of a level was unique before a sailors tail. You never just use the same theme or colors or anything like that for a section of a level. I feel like the Crystal was your best level. It was totally unique, it never repeated itself, and was a beautiful level overall. The new level all about us is really bad and doesn’t stick to the music and you can tell that it was lazily made. It’s good that you used a song with words, but I think everything a one of your OG fans love the original instrumental soundtracks. I feel like when you started this game it was beautiful and we’re just doing it because you loved it. Seems like you’re just doing it for the money now. The level of ad you have to watch just play the game is ridiculous. Everyone loved the simplicity of the old menu design and I really wish that you could change it back. I love this game and I’m going to keep playing it, but you need to get back to basics
