Just Dance 2018 

 

I am very thankful Ubisoft sent Family Friendly Gaming a reviewable copy of Just Dance 2018 on the Xbox One. The boys did an Unboxing of this game which can be found here. We have also recorded all of the new original songs. For the videos of those dance sessions please click here. I personally danced all of the songs in Just Dance 2018. I was assisted with the research of lyrics.

Just Dance 2018 continues the trend of having a very world flavor. There are a variety of songs from and about different areas of the world. Just Dance 2018 tries very hard to provide for a lot of demographics. I wish there was a Toby Mac or KJ-52 song in there personally. All of us have different tastes. There are a couple of songs in Just Dance 2018 that I enjoyed listening to.

Families need to be aware there are songs with offensive lyrics. There are also dance moves you may not approve of. I was not personally fond of shaking my butt in Make It Jingle. There are also songs that may be promoting sexual deviancy in Just Dance 2018. When it comes to controversial topics Just Dance 2018 goes to the far left and does not give the same amount of time to the traditional viewpoint.

Just Dance 2018 contains Kids Mode, Just Dance, and World Dance Floor. Under Just Dance is Just Dance 2018 songs, and Just Dance Unlimited. Under Just Dance Unlimited is Hall of Fame, Thrills and Chills, Easy Peasy Party, Latin Corner, Extreme, Alphabetical, Sweat Mode, and make your own playlist. Sweat is under the normal Just Dance 2018, and Just Dance Unlimited. Just Dance Unlimited is a mode that requires payment.

I love the Kids Mode in Just Dance 2018. Kids can move around and get five stars. In fact the Kids Mode is very forgiving. I do not think moves are ever missed. Kids get thirteen songs in there. Some of them can be found in the regular Just Dance 2018 section as well. We have been asking for a new Just Dance Kids video game, so it is neat to see this mode in Just Dance 2018.

Families unlock stickers, alternative songs, avatars, backgrounds, the fortieth song, and more through the Mojo Machine. As we level up, and dance songs we earn coins. When we get one hundred coins we can use them to earn something. The Mojo Machine looks like a gumball machine. This is pretty neat and encourages replay of the songs in Just Dance 2018. This game will make you sweat.

All in all I am impressed with Just Dance 2018. I was in Just Dance shape for the release of Just Dance 2018. There are three to five songs I am not happy with in Just Dance 2018. That still leaves quite a few of them that I do like. Just Dance 2018 can be played with a phone or the Kinect sensor. I only played Just Dance 2018 with the Kinect sensor because of its accuracy. I hope to see a Just Dance Weird Al game in the future. I really want to dance to Tacky.
