How to describe osu?

Everytime when ppl ask me what games I play, the first thing I say is "Osu!".

Only problem now is, that I don't know what to say about it cause apparently no one living near me knows it :(

Until now I always said "It's an online rhythm game where you need to click circles with the music playing in the background.", but that just doesn't cut it, cause it seems like no one understands that right and no one understand how complicated the game really is. Plus I wouldn't know a way to describe the game otherwise without talking about it for 20 minutes or smth like that.

So what can I say to describe osu in a very short, but exact way?

THX in advance

This. Personally, I'd say Guitar Hero instead of DDR because it's better known where I live.

Best way I could describe it to my freinds was

"Its like Guitar hero but you use a mouse and keyboard so there is a lot more skill involved"

If it is just 'osu'... Well... 'music rhythm game filled with variety of song and about aiming, clicking circle'

If it is 'osu!mania', show this.

First person shooter, but instead of shooting people you shoot circles to the rhythm with a wide variety of anime short size crap and pony songs. One-way ticket to having no friends IRL.

Well at least osu! players haven't killed everyone in the school yet like FPS players?

No there is not any stereotyping in my post.

Yes of course my thousands of hours spent on FPS games have made kill someone...
Please don't make ignorant statements like that.

Actually my statement wasn't ignorant. I have played easily over thousands hours FPS games too. (I played Wolfenstein 3D before I did go school. Other FPS games I've played is: Duken Nukem 3D, Shadow Warrior 3D (the one from 3D Realms), Quake 1-3, Quake Arena, Quake Live, Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory, Doom 1-3, Counter-Strike overally [all versions and modifications of it], Half-life 1, Alien vs Predator, Call of Duty 1 (mostly just that one, but also have touched some of later versions), Brink and loadout also some others but those mostly.

Because I've played FPS games pretty much I don't have any reason to actually think that FPS gamers are some kind of crazy murders or such. My statement was more like sarcasm. It was just making humour (bad humour but still humour) of reflecting the image what old adults see as us FPS gamers.

People who know little of osu! (not much just little) can automatically think that all osu! players are nerd anime otakus who don't think anything but unrealistic loligirls which have way too big eyes on they head. Same goes to FPS players. This might sound stupid but many adults actually think that if you have played much of FPS games (or other violent games) you will become next murder. It's sad but there is actually people like that. Unfortunately.

But if I did hurt you with my bad joke I apologize. I didn't intend to do that.

Well yeah I know that comparing is not same class but this is just all about stereotyping.
