To help players of all skill levels engage with the rhythm-based gameplay, the game offers various accessibility options. These include a metronome, a rhythm bar, and audio/video calibration tools to fine-tune the timing. Reviewers note that these features make the game more welcoming to players who may struggle with strict rhythm requirements.
