What is osu?
osu! is a free and currently most popular rhythm game for PC. Game-play consists of hit circles (circles you have to tap), sliders (dragging a ball across a fixed path) and spinners (spinning your cursor around the center of your screen). There are over 200,000 downloadable songs (beatmaps) and new ones are coming out everyday so you can always find music of your taste.

What do you need to play osu?
The game itself is really simplistic so you can run it on pretty much any working PC. All you need is 2 hands, a mouse and a keyboard. You can also use other input devices to your own preference such as TabletPC, graphics tablet, joystick (as for myself I use Wacom Bamboo graphics tablet as my pointing device).

How to download and play the game?
You can download and install the game from the official game website: https://osu.ppy.sh/p/download
The game comes with only one song (tutorial), for more songs you will have to download them from here: https://osu.ppy.sh/p/beatmaplist&s=4&r=0


As for me, I've been playing Osu! on and off for about 3 years now.
