How many hours of game-play can you expect from Rhythm Heaven Fever? Brew some coffee, and let's take a look at how many hours U.S. Wii owners have reported playing Rhythm Heaven Fever since it released in February!

Caffeinated Thoughts
"What an odd, strange, crazy looking game!", is what I thought after watching a trailer for Rhythm Heaven Fever. If you have not seen any footage from the game, here is a trailer that might give you an idea of what you can expect:

I have not played Rhythm Heaven Fever, but after seeing the trailer for it this past week, it looks like it could be a lot of fun.

As for the hours reported, I think the game's average reported already being more than 15 Hours "Per Person" is really good for the game, and shows that Wii owners are definitely playing the game a good bit.

I think Rhythm Heaven Fever's 15+ hours averaged per Wii console, and the overall positive reviews from critics and consumers, shows the game is worth its MSRP of $29.99. If you enjoy rhythm based music games, I think Rhythm Heaven Fever might be well worth taking a look at.

  1. No, I have no groove. Ha ha.

    Not sure if this game is appealing to me. Not even sure if you can find it in Australia at all!

  2. "Not even sure if you can find it in Australia at all!"
    I believe it was released in Japan and Europe as well, but there is no showing for Australia.

    As for, "No, I have no groove."
    I fall into that boat as well.

    Thanks for stopping the comment!
