If you enjoy Japanese culture, Japanese songs, and rhythm games, Taiko no Tatsujin: Drum ‘n’ Fun! is absolutely for you.

While it's great to finally see a Taiko reach Europe, it has some disappointing aspects, like sub-par motion controls that make you want to rely on standard controls, and a track listing that is decent, but misses many of the memorable Taiko tracks of recent years - some of which ended up on the PS4 version instead. The decision to have two completely different track listings is also baffling. There are already a bunch of songs on the eShop, including a Ghibli pack that is a must-buy. Those negatives aside, Taiko no Tatsujin: Drum 'n' Fun! is still a ton of fun, and a joy for anyone who has played it in Japan. Hopefully, the first of many in the series to get such a release.

Taiko no Tatsujin: Drum 'n' Fun! is an entertaining title in the rhythmic genre, and if you are a fan of Japanese songs, you'll probably love it. But if you are not familiar with Japanese songs or you simply don't like them, then this game is not for you, though you may still enjoy the Party Mode.

No matter what way you choose to buy, though, both are great and make for an excellent musical addition to your game collection.

Taiko no Tatsujin's solid rhythm gameplay is a good hook, but Drum 'n' Fun's mini-games make the Switch version shine.
