    Disappointingly short but it's still one of the most refreshing experiences of 2011. [May 2011, p.90]

    I'd love to see a sequel to this game that's fully fleshed out, with more elaborate levels, multi-player mode, boss fights, and other trappings of the modern videogame. Until that time, we has Lilt Line as it is, in all it's simple, abstract glory.

    With a fantastic soundtrack and great rhythm-based gameplay this release lives up to the pedigree of Gaijin Games' growing library of fantastic Wii-Ware releases.

    Apart from some mind-boggling decisions in terms of difficulty, lilt line is a pretty smart buy. Just don't expect to return to it as frequently as you do the adventures of Commander Video.

    All in all lilt line is a challenging musicg ame, with oldschool retro graphics, blinking animations and nice sounds, but there is not that much variety in the game. For 500 Nintendo Points the game is absolutely ok, but don't expect too much.

    The creators of the Bit Trip-games haven't really put in all their effort in their new title, but it's decent enough.

    Its stripped-back beat-matching will leave you tapping your foot - but out of impatience as much as approval of its grimy dubstep. [Feb 2011, p.103]

    With the release of lilt line we see the transition of Gaijin Games from the role of indie game developer revivalists, to game publishers.With the release of lilt line we see the transition of Gaijin Games from the role of indie game developer revivalists, to game publishers. Developer Different Cloth created the game lilt line but the game seems to holler Gaiijn! at every turn.
