This game is overall pretty good. 30+ songs (at least half of which you'll instantly recognise, even though all the songs have been tweaked slightly) and a bongo.
Graphics: Not great. Circles flying past obviously don't push the Cube to anywhere near its limits, but the backgrounds aren't that great either. Overall a bit dissapointing.
Sound: Obviously this is what most of the game is about, and it scores highly. A wide range of songs means that everyone will be pleased by at least one (but few will be happy at all of those chosen). There is also a wide range of unlockable songs that occur when you hit the bongo. Bongo is the best, while the more extreme ones got dull very quickly (farm animal sound etc).
Gameplay: Another good section. Fun in single player and great with a couple of friends as well! There's also a 3 mini games to play to keep you busy. Climbing vines is ultimately boring, but wack-a-mole os fun enough and banna juggling will keep you coming back to try to beat you're score.
Length: The game takes a while to complete and unlock everything. After that you wont return to the single player very often, but you will return for multiplayer. However, for a real multiplayer experience you'll need at a bongo for each player. Luckily, getting one free (and another free with DKJB) helps to keep the costs down.
Overall: a nice rythm game, just don't expect anything more then what you've heard about the game, basically.
