I played this quite a bit on an an iPad. Excellent song quality and variety, and beautiful song artwork.

This game used to have song packs unlocked one chapter at a time every 100,000 downloads, until the fulfillment of the 1,000,000 downlaod campaign, which was met. Now only a few song packs are locked by DLC and over 180 songs are available with the initial purchase.

I like the scanline note presentation and it's one of the few rhythm games where I don't mind the speed of notes being based on BPM. The timing windows are fairly loose, which might be a turn-off for more "hardcore" players but there are certainly players who don't mind it too much. Also, the difficulty scale is out of 9 and there's a huge spread of difficulty in the level 9 range. Also scoring is combo-based, with all the problems that entail (miss 1 note in the middle and it's worse than missing several notes at either end); there is an alternate scoring system called TP that is accuracy-based, but it's heavily de-emphasized in favor of score.

Frankly I prefer this over Cytus II. Cytus II is too grindy and reliant on DLC purchases.
