✦ AI summary
Players appreciate the game as a fun, casual experience with charming character design, but find the gameplay lacks depth and becomes frustratingly difficult in later stages due to poor block randomization and timing mechanics that punish quick decision-making. Most reviewers see it as a worthwhile novelty for fans of Genki's work at its low price point, though some wish the core mechanics were more balanced to maintain the chill experience throughout.

I really like the devil's design so I'm glad they brought her into Tokyo Xtreme Racer, but the game itself is very short and doesn't have much going on with the gameplay. Still, it's a neat novelty for people who are fond of Genki and their work.2 found this helpful
This game is somewhat enjoyable, but the later stages turn this game into a rage mode, especially when the game randomly gives bad blocks to me and have to wait 5 seconds before using it. Imo, it could've been better if we could use the next blocks right away, because you're moving faster, so you need to make quick decisions before it's too late.1 found this helpful

Genki is over 9000 times better at making games than I am at playing them and this game is the proof.
not a bad way to spend $2 fun and simple chill game thanks Genki!
