Steel Century Groove isn’t flawless, but it’s genuinely fun. The rhythm battles are engaging, the soundtrack is excellent, and the idea of settling rivalries through mech dance-offs never gets old. The story and characters won’t click with everyone, and the structure can feel repetitive at times, but the core gameplay does more than enough to hold your attention. It feels like the start of something special, and I’d love to see how this concept could evolve in the future. At the very least, the free demo is worth checking out. It might just make you want to get your groove on.
