Review summary

Old School Musical - Pocket Ed is praised for its fun rhythm gameplay, captivating chiptune music, and effective mobile port of the original. Players enjoy the weekly free songs and straightforward controls. However, many find the cost for additional songs quite expensive and lament the absence of tutorials or customization for controls. The challenge level on mobile can be steep, and some bugs affect the experience. Overall, it's well-liked by rhythm game fans but could improve in onboarding and affordability.

2022-07-03	Ma*****	One of the best games that I have played in a while, this should have more reputation because of the mechanics, famousnism aside, the game had no problems at all! No problems with the buttons, everything is just fine! I would recommend having a big change so this game would get a good reputation.

2021-11-02	Ti*****	I have absolutely no idea what this game is or what this god-awful music is supposed to be. It's like 8-bit music meets DDR... With your fingers... I may have missed something pertaining to this game, like if it is a remake of an original? But it was fun for like 20 minutes or so until I couldn't stand the beeps anymore because there's so much better rhythm games out there. Not bad for what it is I guess

2021-09-13	Aa*****	It's a fun game definitely, on it's original platform. The mobile port is good but paying a dollar per song, considering the full game on PC is only 15 dollars is very pricey. Another thing worth noting is some of the harder songs from later in the game are EXTREMELY difficult on mobile due to control restrictions. All in all good game I just don't think it was meant to be on mobile

2020-11-21	bl*****	The game is pretty fun and I loved the background that is likely inspired by Breath of Fire III. My only issue would be the very fast sequence of notes in Difficult levels, which are very difficult to perfect using a smartphone. Planning to get it in Steam whenever possible. The game tends to feel too short with only 5 songs available for free and offline. (Some paid songs go free every week but require internet connection)

2020-08-23	Jo*****	This is a great game. If you don't mind the cost of DLC, this is a great pick. The things that it does with its own mechanics are cool. If you don't like the fact that you have to pay $3.49 for each pack of five songs, then try it out anyway. You might just think it's worth it.

2020-04-27	A *****	This is me coming off of my second track:Great game. Love it a lot. Could use a tutorial or practice stage to help nail the timing, and could do with a few more starting tracks. Other than that, pretty awesome. Another small personal complaint, I can't really seem to figure out how my button presses corralate to on-screen actions, but you're not really supposed to be focused on that part, so I can move past it. Solid 4 stars.

2020-02-22	A *****	Fun Little rhythm game. Nice chiptune sound track. The only down side that while the controls are simple and self explanatory (which the exception of the bars. I just guess and so far im pressing the right buttons). It lack tutorial for those who maybe new to Rhythm games. Comes with 5 free sounds + 5 more weekly songs (with ads). The rest is $3.49 per 5 songs. i only experience one bug though. If going back to home (pressing/touching the home button) while on the last 2 songs on the Weekly songs. The music still plays in the background (at %50 speed). going back to the game will make the song play at normal speed but the screen will freeze (pressing home then come back quickly, unfreeze the game if the song doesn't stop when going back to home)

2020-02-05	A *****	one of the best music games for mobiles for sure, as an old stepmania player im loving this (this game has the same vibe for me), the music is great, the chickens are pretty cool, i think the controls can be improved a little bit (the accuracy of the hitbox) and sadly as f2p u only have 1 free chapter and need to pay for the rest, ik they need money but i tend to no spend money, one of the best music games i ever played, idk why the "bad" rate, this should be a +4,5 stars, would recommended.

2020-02-02	A *****	the way the game works like a gitaroo man/fantasy rpg mashup is just so charming, plus the soundtrack are fun and cutesy too, i adore em to death. for a person like me who is passionate and enjoys these type of games, this is a fresh take on the ddr type rhythm game i love to see being executed really well, plus the chickens dont deserve this tbh, they're too cute. i'd like to see what this game able to offer more in the future, love every moment of it :D
