About the game
Argentina, 1923. Luciano can't dance. Martita's birthday is coming. And the only way to win her heart is to master the tango, one step, one song, one melodramatic disaster at a time. A rhythm game inspired by Latin American soap operas. 96% positive on Steam.

It has been discounted 41 times in the 9 years tracked here. The median cut across all of them is 50 percent, about 10 weeks apart. $2.13 is what it would take to make this a BANGER, and nothing in its history goes that low.
Against its own genre it lands in the top 5 percent on value. It is cheaper than 70 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 98 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Finding Paradise ($9.99, scores 89) beats it on value, while it beats Everhood 2 ($19.99, scores 35).

What players say
Anyone looking at my hours playing can see that I found this game very addictive. I just had to get three stars and a crown on all of the songs. The story is great and the music is fantastic. I really have no complaints. This is a great time.

As we move to the rhythm of the tango, you and I become one, a single being with four graceful legs and two pulsing hearts resonating together.
For me dance is life, it's what water is to fish. A charming game about the dance of passion and love.
