I'll start by saying that the soundtrack of this game is fantastic. My wife and I are currently co-op'ing our way through the game and are 10 songs deep, and we haven't come across one yet that didn't leave us searching it up on the Internet and singing it afterward. The first song alone really captures the spirit of the game.
Each song, or level, is accompanied by a unique and exciting puzzle or combat experience that is exemplified by the co-op experience, such as one person playing the "rhythm" aspect of the game while another protects them, progresses the level, or keeps the notes/beats visible.
There is a motley cast of characters and a pretty good (and fairly straightforward) story to carry you through the game, though the gameplay outshines it significantly.
The game does, sadly, lose some of the magic while playing single-player, so I can't give it 5 stars. But if tapping along to exceptionally curated soundtracks while you and your friends/siblings/significant others are desperately trying to hold in your screams and laughter and solve wild puzzles is your jam, then so is this game.
