So, we really like the game. It gives us a workout and it’s fun but we don’t like that we have to use our phones. I have an Iphone 12 and I’m constantly worried about my 6 year old throwing it into the glass door or window from dancing with it. It’s also very big so it’s hard to hold without pressing a button and pausing the game. I don’t like that you have to purchase something else to access more songs. These gaming systems and games already cost way too much then they $9.99 a month you to death. It’s ridiculous however, I do admit, we have a lot of fun playing as a family.

My kids love the music and the game, however having to use a phone instead of a controller or camera is cumbersome.

Family loves it. The only thing that can be a little put off for people may be that you need to use your phone. That can be a little much if you have a kid holding and swinging your phone around but overall it’s a good and fun game.

The kids love the game. It is a great work out, too.
I had to knock off a star due to the constant pimping of the Unlimited Subscription. It feels like I bought a sample version instead of a complete game.

This game is very fun with great songs. It will work both as a fun game and get a little workout along with the game. I have been enjoying it a lot. I recommend it if you want a fun party game.

My kids got this game for Christmas, and they absolutely love it. The only thing is that you have to download an app from the App Store in order to play; good thing my kids have smartphones or they wouldn't be able to play. Also, you have to hold your phone in your hand to play, which is a pain because it's very easy to drop it, and also lose WIFI. But besides that, You can play up to six players which is good for us, because we have 5 kids, so it's pretty cool

Fun game but using a cell phone as a controller instead of the console controller is not ideal.

Didn’t like that you had to sync a phone for the PS5. If I would have known, then I would have boughten the game for a system that has compatibility to use the controllers.

My kids love this game... Only downside is they all need a phone to download the app on to play. Makes it a little challenging for them and they get agitated.

Bought for my 13 yo. I read you can use the controllers to play. Well that is for menu navigation only. You MUST download the smartphone app and hold the phone during play. This is fine as my oldest has a phone but her 5 up brother cannot play without a phone plus I’m sure my phone will get damaged in his care while trying to play. I’ve read other reviews that the camera for the PS5 doesn’t even work with this game.

For this price this is a must have. A bit tough to get started because you need your phone to track your motion, but once it is up, endless fun
