How it feels
A wildly charming and offbeat rhythm experience where tight, unforgiving timing meets a buoyant, cartoon-fantasy world bursting with personality.

About
Gitaroo Man is a rhythm video game featuring visual production by Mitsuru Nakamura and an original soundtrack by Japanese band COIL. The game was later ported to the PSP under a new title: Gitaroo Man Lives!
What players say
A beloved quirky rhythm game where matching notes feels like physically conducting the music, wrapped in a wonderfully weird art style. Fans cherish it as a soulful cult classic that's easy to grasp but brutally hard to master.
