The dance arcade game craze was bound to produce a Christian response and now Digital Praise have a big seller in the USA with this game. Not being built for much disco dancing, I passed the game on to the Da Silva family whose teenage girls are into dance music. Here's what they told me: "The mat is large and colourful and the arrows bright and easy to see though it did take about 10 minutes to load the game into the computer. The game has different levels of play - easy, medium and hard. It scores points for you and you just type in your name. The graphics are good though a downside is that the lyrics go over the arrows so that can be off putting and harder to follow the sequence of arrows. If you follow the lady on the screen you also score poorly as you cannot always follow the arrows because she is in the way while the mat needs to be a bit smaller as your feet tend to miss the arrows. The biggest plus is of course the music and there are plenty of original tracks from artists like dc Talk and Steven Curtis Chapman. You do need lots of energy to play this game so don't use it when you have just eaten. Not really the best dance mat on the market but still very good fun and the lyrics will leave your spirits high."
