I would give this game a middling grade but since I refunded the game myself, I can't recommend it. It is definitely made for someone with good reflexes and stamina more so than I could ever possibly have. It will give you a decent workout with the constant throwing of papers and grabbing various items. My problem is that it lacks any sort of rhythm to the game. Targets are scattershot and way too many for any kind of pattern. The music is terrible so much so that I turned it way way down. This would make for a great Quest standalone game. I think there is an audience for it. Too bad it is stuck in Steam land where only a few people will see it and pick it up. If the game had more of a pattern/rhythm then I would recommend it. But if you enjoy flailing your arms about tossing virtual papers around, then this is your game. If you looking for more of a music rhythm game, look elsewhere.
