It can be said that this game is closely tied to the adolescence of many 90s gamers.
Entering the mid-2000s, Audition emerged as a phenomenon in the Vietnamese online gaming scene. Its eye-catching and adorable graphics, coupled with the hip-hop style of the 'dancers,' enthralled the 9x generation of that time. There was a period when 9 out of 10 gamers from the 90s had played Audition at least once.
Even now, it is still considered a 'classic' game with a significant influence on later casual mobile games. It possesses a vibrancy that not every online game of that time could achieve, especially one that has endured to this day.
During that time, Audition also pioneered organizing competitions like Miss Audition, propelling many hot girls to stardom. Figures like Bảo Thy and Quỳnh Nga emerged as prominent faces, solidifying their positions in the Vietnamese showbiz scene until today.
In those days, gamers who loved Audition, enjoyed watching Miss Audition, but cybercafé owners had a mixed emotional experience. They were happy about the increased foot traffic due to the game's allure but worried about keyboards wearing out rapidly, with many 'Enter' keys getting damaged as gamers strived for the Perfect Finish.
In the end, these are the mixed memories of joy and sorrow for the 9x gamer generation. Looking back now, everyone sees a chapter of their 'teenhood' in it. That's the true value that not every game brings to gamers like Audition does.
