When I'm in a being fucking awesome competition and my opponent is the guitar solo from RAZYEDAESH MNE NUTRO 😭😭😭.

it does get challenging at times,but thats what a rhythm game is. it does take a bit of time to figure out what to do and when,as they add new balls every few stages;but after awhile u figure out what to do.
that being said,the voice acting for this game,is meh. it kind of sounds like text to speech on tiktok. i wish u could turn it off. even though the voicing isn't the greatest. i do like the story itself though. i like how the brothers are reminiscing about their past and the brother sharing his stories about college and what not.

if u like rhythm games,and/or sports games i reccoemd giving this a go.

It's free, it's fun and a little challenging at times.

I enjoyed it, I really liked their previous game and had to give this a go. I did find it difficult around the mid point but found the mechanics rounding out well towards the end.

The gameplay is very reminiscent of taiko, but gives off a VERY different vibe and aesthetic you don't see (or to be honest, you've never really seen) in the genre. Story-wise, the dialogue and execution felt a bit stilted and awkward, but behind that was a clear love for euro post-punk and an attempt to give you the experience of sentimental childhood towns- to which, I think it did quite well

There really is nothing quite like slipping into the flow state of a rhythm game, and Kovox Pitch's dedication to Russian post-punk music and lonely concrete afterglow lent me a solid hour of melancholic bliss. Not the most varied or challenging game in any sense, the setlist is noticeably small, songs tend to blend into one another, but it's fine - you're here for a very specific purpose; to vybe. Never before have I tuned the ambient stage audio to be exactly as loud as the music, the game really does have a special atmosphere with thanks not having too many moving parts. As much as I like overly glitzy and dazzling Bemani-grade rhythm games, they don't LEAVE me with much - Kovox Pitch's brief story mode ties the experience w/ a lovely bow akin to an emotional gutpunch and I'll carry the experience with me for a good long while I think!!!!!! Very sweet thing. Don't be mean to the voice acting.
