Reception
editOn Metacritic, Super Crazy Rhythm Castle received mixed reviews for the Switch and positive reviews for PlayStation 5.[4] Nintendo World Report praised the surreal graphics, humor, and gameplay. However, they felt the songs were sometimes generic, and they disliked the Switch controls, which can not be remapped. They concluded that it is "flawed but interesting".[2] Vandal and IGN France praised the soundtrack and co-op gameplay, though they said it can be frustrating when played single-player. Vandal also enjoyed the gameplay and level design.[5][6] Eurogamer Germany also enjoyed the soundtrack, but they had issues with getting controllers to work properly on Windows. They also like the rhythm-based gameplay, but they felt there was too much unskippable dialogue that was poorly presented.[7] Multiplayer.it enjoyed the mix of genres, but they did not like the soundtrack or the story.[8]
