Gameplay-wise, it plays almost identically to the ''VideoGame/WarioWare'' series: you are assaulted with a barrage of microgames lasting only a few seconds each with little explanation on how the games actually work, and the goal is to complete as many as you can before making too many mistakes and running out of lives while the games gradually increase in speed and difficulty. The major selling point, however, is the presentation: the game plays out like a Broadway musical, with a score written and performed by a wide array of actual Broadway talent. It's one of those rare games that really has to be seen to be fully appreciated.
[[ExamplesAreNotRecent As of this writing]], the game is unfinished, as only the first Act has been released. A second Act is set to be released at a later date, with more possibly to follow.
