One user in particular, showed how to play the track in an arcade. The song is also available to play in four difficulty levels from Easy to Extreme, where players could earn up to six stars for completing the track.

Locally, the game can be found at arcades in selected shopping malls. Aeon Fantasy Malaysia for example, announced a Taiko no Tatsujin tournament back in 2022 where participating outlets included malls in Klang Valley, Penang and Johor.

Taiko no Tatsujin is a rhythm game modelled after the traditional Japanese taiko drum. Players have to hit the drum according to notes on the screen to score points.
