    If you enjoy rhythm games or are simply curious about the genre then I highly recommend playing Groove Coaster: Wai Wai Party!!!! From its amazing music to its challenging yet intuitive gameplay, it's a prime example of what the genre is capable of.

    An accessible romp into the world of rhythm games, Groove Coaster Wai Wai Party!!!! is an eclectic treat for anyone trying to get their arcade fix at home. It might take a little time to get used to the controls, but those willing to practice are bound to find a satisfying musical experience.

    Yet another fantastic rhythm game to add to the Switch's ever-growing repertoire. It may be a tad on the expensive side, but its core mechanics are rock solid, its minimalist visuals are a treat to behold and the fact it's got to much to play through and unlock means you'll be happily tapping your toes to this one for months.

    Groove Coaster’s stylish look can be frustrating and intrusive, but the underlying mechanics still make for one of the best rhythm games I’ve ever played. The excellent track list was already impressive, but the fine-tuned gameplay, inventive mechanics like ad-libs, and a mission-based structure of unlocks that keep you focused and coming back for more content make the game addicting and rewarding. I wish I could turn off the flashy backgrounds and weird camera angles, but even with that blemish this is still an easy choice for anyone who wants to get into a good groove.

    I played the demo and God it was **** Then I had 5 minutes to kill the next day, I thought this is mildly entertaining but at £50 they'reI played the demo and God it was **** Then I had 5 minutes to kill the next day, I thought this is mildly entertaining but at £50 they're having a laugh. 3rd day **** loved it. I was like damn I need to sell a game to get me a quick £50. You need to be in to Asian style music to enjoy this game. Touhou and Hatsune Miku are both on there. If you don't like those, you likely won't like this game very much. I love Touhou music and soon got hooked on the demo. It is just good frantic fun. The design as a rhythm game just works.

    A solid rhythm game experience with a fun and creative presentation. Lacklustre list of songs make this a middling value proposition.
