Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
The most important aspect is the gameplay, and this offers a combination of 140’s rhythm platforming elements and DDR’s rhythm based direction action phases.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
When it works well it's a frenetic combination with appealing visuals and an aural delight, but the soundtrack can make reading a strong rhythm difficult, filtering visual input can be a real pain with the intense trippy visuals, and at its worst Klang feels like trying to simultaneously play two very different games at the same time, rather than a seamless fusion.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The soundtrack is FANTASTIC, bLiNd really outdid himself on this project and you can actually unlock the music tracks if you just want to listen to them later on.

The story: Does anyone care about the story in a rhythm game?
