“Under the gimmick narration, it is a simple 2D platformer. So it could be boring if you get annoyed by the singing, or boring because the game itself is very simple. But still, the gimmick is unique, so thumbs up!”

“It's a pretty positive game with a simple plot. The trick of this game is voicing all the actions of the character with a song, you can say it turned out to be a musical game. Definitely worth to get acquainted with this game)”
