    A Musical Story is a rhythm game that breaks with the traditional and repetitive system in an artistic, educational and entertaining way; through a musically focused storytelling that results in a fresh, magical, and rewarding experience.

    A Musical Story is a warm, interesting and charming small adventure about songwriting and inspiration with, at its core, an essential, but not shallow, rhythm game. It looks and plays as a 70s rock concept album and lingers through solos, emotional spikes and perfect execution. Sometimes is a bit unfair, but well, the road to perfection can be harsh.

    A Musical Story is a mesmerizing audiovisual experience. Even if not completely capable of involving us in its narration, we were constantly struck by the world it is capable not only to create, but also to recall.

    Wonderful, lo-fi sounds and hand-crafted visuals make A Musical Story a clear a labour of love, sadly let down by its rhythm mechanics.

    "Музыкальная история". А где история то?
    Сценок с сюжетом очень мало, они очень малодетальные, практически неинформативные, поначалу сюжет    "Музыкальная история". А где история то?
    Сценок с сюжетом очень мало, они очень малодетальные, практически неинформативные, поначалу сюжет максимально бытовой и простой, к концу всё превращается в какой-то артхаус с воронами. Я просто инстинктивно отворачивался во время сценок, так как они просто не о чём, я скорее ждал геймплей. Да, я понял, что это воспоминания и гг лежит в коме по сюжету, но это не спасает. Вдвойне печально, потому что визуальный стиль то крутой, меню выглядит очень красиво, но все силы разрабов ушли на геймплей, видимо.
    А геймплей это просто ритм-кликер, причём поначалу музыка реально качает, а к середине какое-то уныние, в котором мне трудно было ловить ритм.
    6/10
    Если бы было можно, поставил бы нейтральную оценку, но играть не советую.
