    At $30, the game is absolutely worth checking out. Not just for its look or its addictive qualities, but for the sheer, simple joy of getting to play with entirely new toys.

    The versatile and responsive controls are the star of the show, giving these simplistic minigames much-needed longevity.

    Who's that tapping on the floor? Why, it's fun. Why not let him in? [July 2009, p.71]

    This party game is a bit light on content, but its bizarre controls and unusual selection of games make it fun to play with friends.

    Although Let's Tap has some really great ideas, my main problem with this title is that there just isn't enough to it. Unfortunately, with just four games and a visualizer, the game feels more like a tech or gameplay demo rather than a full-fledged game.

    Yuji Naka's latest work is a very strange one, probably one of the most original productions that we've seen on the Nintendo Wii platform. It's a funny proposal but still it's not as convincing as we'd like it to be. The box system is not the best choice in order to make players have a good time, but it's inevitable to understand that the style of this game's original as it can.

    Let's Tap!, with its bright, accessible aesthetic and peppy, J-pop soundtrack, has a lot of potential. Unfortunately, I can only evaluate the game as it exists, and Let's Tap! has a few shortcomings too many to wholeheartedly recommend.

The 4 core activities branch out into many different little mini games that can keep one occupied for hours in trying to score the highest. The game however is drastically short for single players and is not recommended for such.… Expand
