We created Sigure with the hope that even adults who can’t read sheet music can easily enjoy playing the piano.
However, for parents who want their children to learn to play the piano seriously, this may not be the most recommended option.
In this post, we’ve summarized the potential pros and cons of the VR piano game “Sigure”. We hope it serves as a helpful reference.
Pros and Cons
Pros of VR Piano Games
- You can play even without reading sheet music
- It’s fun to play with a game-like experience
- Easy to replay and challenge for high scores
- Helps develop the habit of playing piano regularly
- You can practice anytime, as much as you like
Cons of VR Piano Games
- Doesn’t develop sheet music reading skills
- Difficult to learn proper finger technique
- May lead to playing by rote rather than technique
- Hard to build a solid foundation in piano
- Doesn’t develop expressive performance skills
Please Enjoy It as a Game!
The intended users of Sigure are mainly “adult beginners who can’t read sheet music,” “those returning to piano as adults,” and “intermediate or advanced rhythm game fans who want to play on the piano.”
Of course, we’ve added features to help users improve while playing, and we plan to expand with skill-building programs in the future. However, since this is ultimately a game, we ask that you don’t expect too much from it in terms of serious piano learning (sweat).
We’d be happy if you enjoy Sigure as a casual and fun way to play piano!
