Features ・Four difficulty levels: Easy, Normal, Hard, Extreme ・Play various modes and collect lots of costumes! ・Drum against your friends online! How to Play ・Tap the Taiko drum in sync with the notes! Each song comes with its own unique note charts. Sync to the rhythm and tap the drum in accordance with the notes. Each tap will be scored as GOOD, OK, or BAD depending on how well timed it is to the music note. ・Fill up the Soul Gauge and clear the song! The Soul Gauge fills up if taps are timed to the music notes, but loses steam when they are not. If the Soul Gauge is filled past the clear line when the song ends, then it's CLEARED! - Support: Have a question or problem?

They did it! They added more songs!!

I gave this game 5 stars at launch praising how this is a near perfect conversion of the Nintendo Switch taiko, and that the taiko team should keep adding songs for this to become excellent.I had dropped my review to 2 stars after waiting 2+ months for an update on this game, and there being silence from the developers. This just changed yesterday, as they added a new leaderboard function, 10 additional songs, and gave the community the first official announcement that more songs will be added in the future! I appreciate this greatly as I pay for Apple Arcade primarily for this game.Thanks for giving us more content, if I could make a suggestion, a few songs every month would go a very long way versus a big song drop every 3 months. Regardless, this is a 5 star game for me again and highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys a fun and challenging rhythm game.

Lots of fun but does not compare to console versions

I’ve been a fan of taiko no tatsujin for a long time. I’ve played it on arcade, PS2,ps4,psvita, switch, 3ds, ds, and the Wii/Wii u. Needless to say I’ve played a lot of the series over the years. This game is very fun don’t get me wrong but it could have a lot more in it. Taiko on console has a lot of songs compared to this with some games having over 100 songs total this one has only 32 songs. It seems like they weren’t willing to put much music into this game. Another feature that could have been added is a story mode. At least 3 games have had one and only 2 have been translated for English audiences. The story mode provides a new way to play taiko keeping many entertained. The controls in this game are about the same as they are on the switch version. One thing that’s hard sometimes is hitting the right spot with your finger. A drum size slider would be a very nice addition to the settings just so a person could comfortably play

edit: I originally put my review at 4 stars due to a lack of content put forth by developer at launch. I’m happy to say they are adding many songs now and continue to do so! i hope more vocaloid songs and gaming songs are added.i’m a big fan of taiko so seeing this game on the app store was very exciting. it’s very easy to pick up and play and input is pretty accurate. my only issue and is what’s making me rate this at 4 stars is the lack of songs. it is a very limited selection even for base launch. i hope more songs are added soon otherwise i will keep my rating at 4 stars. it has only been two months since release so i understand it will take time to convert maps to the mobile version. please at least include lots of fan favorites!

good but a few criticisms

I've been a fan of the Nintendo Switch version of this game for a while, so I came into this with high expectations. The graphics and sound quality were very impressive, almost identical to the original. The controls were also easy, although I wish I could have skipped the tutorial in the beginning. There were significantly less songs than in the original, but that's to be expected, since this game comes with a 5$ monthly subscription, while the Switch version is 60$. I also noticed there were songs that you normally have to pay for in add-ons, such as Tale of Six Trillion Years and a Night, which was a nice surprise. I was a bit disappointed that there weren't any session skills, or at least to my knowledge there weren't. If there were, I didn't notice. I enjoyed the character customization feature. Overall, it's a nice port, and can be enjoyed without previous knowledge of the game.
