A story-driven rhythm game in English, Italian, French, Spanish, Japanese.

Join the undercover dancers of secret agency G.R.O.O.V.E. and help them master the real power of the Rhythm as they stumble upon a sinister plot and attempt to stop it!

Dance to unique music tracks that adapt to your performance across different genres; spin a disco ball with the crank in time with the beat, match button prompts and occasionally tilt the console.

Tailor your experience to your tastes at any time with a rich suite of granular difficulty and accessibility settings. Need a break? Listen to the full 22-track soundtrack in the Jukebox.

With four gameplay variations you may have to learn to rhythmically sneak behind your enemies or loudly face bosses… when all else fails the only way to solve a dispute may be a good old-fashioned dance-off.

You and the agents of G.R.O.O.V.E. will meet many characters as a fun and fully localized story unfolds via gameplay and conversations.

“Dripping in style in a way that most Playdate games (hey, maybe most games) cannot manage […] Agents of Groove is a charming story-based rhythm game with a strong sense of identity”
— Playdate Unofficial

“The story and characters are effortlessly charming and the main game mode is some of the most fun I’ve had in a rhythm game recently […] Easily worth the cost of entry, especially if you are a fan of lighthearted yet challenging rhythm games like PaRappa the Rapper and Rhythm Heaven […] Agents of Groove delivers one of the most polished efforts in the genre on the Playdate platform […] Talk about a homerun”
— Cranko!

“The music is SO good […] If you're into rhythm games, definitely worth considering Agents of Groove […] I had a lot of fun”
— Your Cool Uncle Marisa
