AndersN.Mar 8, 2008The game is pretty good, but they should have added more gamemodes than there currently is to get a 10 from my side. Another feature the game needs is profiles so you could see which songs you're friends have played instead of only seeing the highscore list. The game is rather addictive if you like music so you keep coming back for more.

BrandonP.Apr 22, 2008Amazing game. This is one of the few games in my library I can pick up again and again, and know that far into the future it'll still be getting some serious playtime. And if I hear one more person try to classify this as a "guitar hero clone" I'm gonna freak...

JimSJul 17, 2009Wonderfully addicting, intuitive gameplay that appeals to everyone who isn't easily susceptible to motion-sickness. Rating at an 8 since this simple game runs much heavier than it needs to, but for the price and broad appeal it simply cannot be beat.

BlakeBMar 19, 2008Brilliant.

-
ChrisJJul 27, 2009great game, simple, lets you do something while listening to music, can entertain for hours
-

May 29, 2012Get it on sale if you can, but honestly I just got it at full price, and I'd probably gladly pay double. This game is more addictive than crack (but a lot cheaper). And as a bonus, you can link it to last.fm to scrobble.

Mar 1, 2012If you have the Money and like your Music, I'd suggest buying this. It has quite a few different modes to play, including Multiplayer, Looks great, and most importantly, it makes the levels to your music very well! Slow songs makes a slow level, Faster songs makes a Fast and Hard Level! Overall it's a nice Casual game that can be what you make of it.
-
Nov 21, 2012I love this game, its so fun and so relaxing! The game also works good with the music. If you like listening to music, then just buy this game, its DEFINITLY worth the 10 bucks.
-
OlleY.Mar 10, 2008Best "music" game ever made. Especially cool that you can pick you own tracks!
-
-
MurphStarMar 21, 2008With 4000 songs in my music collection, I'll be playing this game for a month regularly.
-
-
YukuaiI.Mar 6, 2008A game that make me crazy, a very fun game!
-

ArdithM.Apr 29, 2008I love this. Best chillout game ever. So insanely addictive too!

RandallH.Feb 28, 2008It is just a game I can see myself coming back to years from now. And for how cheep it is, you would be a idiot not to get it, the possibilities are endless. With new songs coming out EVERY WEEK, this game will always be in use!
-
-
WiltonJ>Mar 1, 2008This game kicks open the door for the future interaction of Music and Game.
-
-
TomS.Mar 13, 2008Amazing game. Nothing beats the sensation of "riding" your favorite songs. A must have! Especially for $10!
-
-
MaciejMar 1, 2008Good game, I've purchased the full version, but it's getting boring quite fast. Anyway worth the price.

JasonM.Mar 2, 2008More fun than such a simple game should be.
-
-
StuartS.Mar 31, 2008Ingenious idea, addictive game play. All for less than 10 dollars. Ignore the naysayers and guitar hero fan boys, this game is where it is at!
-
-
CJSmithMar 3, 2008This is, hands down, the most fun/addicting game I have ever played.
-
-
NicolaiP.Mar 5, 2008Great game indeed! Audiosurf just has so many game modes and possibilities, that everytime you play it, it's an all new experience! The fact that you can use your own music, a multiplayer mode, and an online highscore just adds more to it! That is what raises this game from mediocre to simply genius! Definately one of the best casual games of this decade.
-
-
KrisB.Mar 8, 2008This game deserves all the hype it gets, perfectly priced casual gaming genius. Reminscent of F-Zero and Klax.
-
-
FunkeystuMar 9, 2008It's a perfect experience and makes you look at songs in a whole new way. It's not directly comparable to any games I've played before and I probably view it probably fits outside my standard definition of "game", but its a truly great way to kick back and listen to music - at $10 its a top buy!
-
-
AliR.Apr 28, 2008Best free time game EVER! I loved how you can choose your own music and it makes the game different! Every single song you play makes the game so different that you will never get tired of it! If you like free time games I would buy this game Immediately! (P.S. I think it beats Peggle by a long shot!)
-
-
[anonymous]Apr 30, 2008I think this game is really awesome and it's addictiveness is just asking for perfection each time you play your favorite music track. but one thing annoys me about it though since I bought this I have had no time for counter strike or guitar hero.
-
-
JAcobB.Jul 19, 2008Excellent game. Great for waiting at the airport if you listen to music there. Addicting.
-
-
IzzythecubemasterJan 1, 2010it, unlike any other music playing game, atomatically generates notes to ride on without you having to make them yourself.
-
-
HaraldWJan 3, 2010This innovative way of sufing your songs is fun and sometimes suprisingly good. Absolute worth playing and having fun.
-
-
Swazzy492Apr 18, 2010I absolutely love Audiosurf. It's a simple, addictive game which allows people to have fun with their music. To those people out there, writing complaints about games not living up to your standards, TRY THE DEMO NEXT TIME!! That's what it's there for, to allow a person to experience part of the game for free. I did, and I was so completely addicted I had to buy the full game.
-
-
BrettG.Apr 26, 2008I don't know what it is about this game, but its just addicting.. and amazing..its almost hypnotizing.
-
-
SethHenningFeb 21, 2008This game is a work of genius. The best part is that theres no set songs that you have to play, any mp3's work. The way the whole map moves to your songs is amazing too, the road bumps to the beat along with the crazy floating shapes flying in the background. This game is a bargain at its price of 10 bucks and if you love music you should pick this game up.

Feb 12, 2011This game is a great way to entertain yourself if you are bored or have not very much to do. It can also be highly competitive thanks to the scoreboard system, which enables you to see your friend's scores on the specific song played.
-

Oct 30, 2011As a casual music game it performs very well with multiple game modes. I like how it can build a play through of any song you choose and then compare your performance online. It's good if you just want to kill a few minutes and jam out a song. It's at least worth $5.
-
Dec 4, 2012AudioSurf is the best way to enjoy your music, race around a track generated from the sound of your song collecting the coloured blocks to score points. Enjoy enhancements to your song the better you play and even a nice visual show. Music will never be the same again
-
Jul 20, 2012Awesome game, expandable as anything can be and has practically unlimited replay value (It's only limited by how many songs you own, etc) and is great fun with friends too (Try to beat each others scores!)
Anyone expecting GH or Frets on Fire from this got the wrong game, even a cursory look at a trailer or the like would show it's nothing like those. -

Dec 9, 2012This game is fun to play. You can just load a song and play a game to its turn. It auto calibrates and actually changes difficulty when it gets faster and etc. as well as being a bit addictive, it was a good deal for $2.50.
-
Jan 10, 2013A dynamic and entertaining game, ideal to enjoy your favorite songs, however, are missing multiplayer mode to play with friends.
Although the interface is not too late, maybe too simple, balanced by its high playability, and hours of musical fun it can offer.
I also mentioned the difficulty small game start to understand the different game modes and controls. -
KeithB.Mar 4, 2008This game is by far the best way to enjoy your music, it's fun, addictive and fast.

A.R.Apr 3, 2008Fresh, ingenious gameplay? Did we play the same game? It's an uninspired falling block game combined with a buggy beat-detecting media player. It's cute, but it's not awesome - even per dollar spent.
-
-
XinL.Mar 2, 2008it feels like a beta release. numerous crash. Always disconnected from server. It's fun to play it everyday for 10 minutes or 2 songs, then you'll just wonder what you are doing.
-
-
BrandonM.Apr 15, 2008Honestly save some money and just listen to your favorite music while playing Tetris. Its a overly simplistic game and even the artistic work on the Audiosurf levels couldn't be more bland. You look at the track outlook and you see a massive cliff and you expect a epic decline but it has no 3d effect at all it just looks like your going straight. Its just a expensive way to listen to music.

RomanH.Feb 28, 2008Yes, nice idea ... but this is NOT A GAME! It's an interactive screensaver, which i can download for free from all over the internet. Charging money for this "media player module with attached online ranking" is ridiculous. Portal ... man, THAT was something entertaining. Because it was A GAME!

Oct 26, 2010Not very imaginative - there are better games out now, this one is a bit stale and does not measure up to traditional standards and performance of game play that I would associate with an enjoyable game. Save your time and money.
-
PolarniM.Mar 6, 2008This game actually has no real point. you drive and along with the music you choose... synchronization with it is there, but it's not absolute to be worthy enough since there is no goal to this. it's so generic and meaningless sometimes... that I can't give it more than 3/10.
-
-
BetoS.Feb 29, 2008IT was so boring! it should be a freeware not worth $10 bucks.
-
-
CarlosG.May 10, 2008I don't see why so many people are rating this game so high. I played one song and I don't even remember if I finished it. I can't understand why people say it's addictive. Thank god they offer a free demo, because the rating and reviews were exaggerated.

KelvinJul 5, 2008Very nice game. You start seeing the music a lot differently once you play this.
-
-
BobMcBobinFeb 22, 2008Awsome game.It is a well deserve 10. I had no problems with this game at all. But XFire needs to support this game.
-
-
Jean-PhilippeJ.Mar 11, 2008Great game, but rapidly repetitive... It's not bad for the low price.
-
-
AlexanderA.Mar 1, 2008As I love colours and fast speeds with twisting tracks and awesome music this game is more than art and culture. It is PERFECT! I really hope it will be a multiplayer mode over network so you can play with friends from different places on world.
-
-
WezleyR.Mar 1, 2008This is a very well done game, and it is highly enjoyable. It is also a very, very smart idea. Well done.

MikeD.Mar 16, 2008Grat Game. Best low budget Game ever.

DanielMar 17, 2008Not much to say. Just, BEST GAME EVER!

KevinMar 19, 2008A highly addictive game, really fun, suites any player. Would be a 10 but the elites are to hard lol
-
-
HowardF.Mar 21, 2008Audiosurf is addictive, fast paced and brilliant, I cant say enough good things about this game! For me its one of the finest puzzle/reaction based games of all time, and at the price it is on Steam its so cheap its almost free. Get it, get it now! You know you want to...
-
-
JesseB.Mar 24, 2008One of the most addicting games I've ever played!
-
-
TravisE.Mar 24, 2008Absolutely awesome game for the price. It's almost a steal for what you get! Replayability for as long as you have new music.
-
-
AdamB.Mar 25, 2008Anyone giving this anything less than an 8 doesn't have any music they enjoy in MP3 format.
-
-
ShawnR.Mar 26, 2008Amazing. I just wish more audio games were out like this.
-

RonnyG.Mar 27, 2008This is a funny nice game for only $9.95.
-

PaulP.Mar 28, 2008Absolutely amazing game, wish i had thought of it!
-
-
HristoL.Mar 28, 2008AWESOME GAME. It even drove me to the point to extract via PainEd songs from Painkiller soundtrack just to test them on different tracks/modes. Very addicting! It would be PERFECT if they include more Steam Achievements ! Score 1000/10 !
-
-
AxelT.Mar 3, 2008Fantastic game. Can keep you entertained with your old music for hours and even days. If you got the chance: Buy it!
-
-
HDS.Mar 7, 2008One word. Addictive.
-
-
SeanL.Feb 26, 2008This game is amazing and way worth the $10. But the track selector could be a bit nicer.

Dec 2, 2011A fun and relaxing way to make listening to music interactive. But other than that, there is a complete lack of innovation. I recommend turning iTunes on in the background and playing something else.
-
Jan 4, 2011No no no no no. Guitar Hero without the guitar, so a lot less fun, OBVIOUSLY. Once you have played it a few times the backgrounds get a little boring to watch with no actual end goal.
-
Jun 18, 2012Just dont get the point. You need a music library worth 40 bucks just to enjoy this 10 dollar 3 lane highway thing. Can this even be called a game? I have no idea. This game is boring. There's free valve mods that your will spend way more time on.
-
Jan 30, 2013Audiosurf is definently a casual game. It has no real purpose or what to achieve, but worldwide stats make this more enjoyable. Most enjoyable when just want to listen to music loud and surf with the beat.
-
EvanB.Feb 23, 2008This is an incredible game! Very addicting, very fun I play it when I'm feeling intense, as well as when i want to relax The fact that you can use any MP3 is the best part.

MatthiasFeb 29, 2008Decent graphics and an addictive gameplay combined with an unmatched replayability from an independent developer. What could be a better reason to support them?

FithakkT.Mar 1, 2008I love how Audiosurf makes you part of the music, involves you in the grandeur. Something that can do that... is genius!

UltiMar 13, 2008Incredibly simple concept, and nearly flawless execution. Simply one of the best uses for ten dollars in existence.

JimmyL.Mar 1, 2008This game is the best puzzle game since tetris. Replayability is endless and it's probably the most addictive puzzle game ever.
-
-
VictorB.Mar 13, 2008Amazing game, re-discover your music in more ways than you thought.
-

BerthilG.Mar 15, 2008Really nice game to play, the best combination between playing a game and listening to music. The full 10 points!

JakeO.Mar 22, 2008An addictive fun game to play. with a collection of cool looking tracks and great gameplay audiosurf makes you go out and buy more music.
-
-
ThomL.Mar 24, 200810 for the best 10 bucks I've spent in a while. The replay value of AudioSurf is high. I haven't even even played most of the characters yet because I find the mono characters to be enjoyable enough. I dig the user-customizable textures... what next?
-
-
RowanH.Mar 3, 2008Even if you're not into fighting for the top score, its always fun to just see what kind of amazing track your favorite songs create!

At the very worst, it's an ingenious multimedia toy that'll have you dusting off the untouched corners of your MP3 collection for a few happy evenings. But for those twitching fingers that still enjoy the thrill of the high score, Audiosurf has the potential to become a bite-sized obsession thanks to its quick fix gameplay and infinite musical possibilities.
-
AudioSurf is very good value for money. It’s fun, fresh, and addicting.
-
Obviously a work of passion, Audiosurf is a game that must not be missed by anyone, especially with an above average interest in music.
