Cute, simple, catchy!
By Meesa Beez Meeeeee (Pcmac user)
This game has really good designs in both characters, music, sound, and even the few backgrounds present for each stage. The “disc” art is simple but charming as well. It’s simple and easy to enjoy, and I’ve found some of the songs being stuck in my head for a time afterwards or popping up at random through my day. Very charming despite the simplicity.
One issue that has been bothering me (and carries over with other Platonic games) is that no matter how many times I download, delete, and redownload a game, it never counts towards the unlockables in the game you can receive for doing so. While this is a relatively small issue, it’s only compounded by the fact that, outside of those five songs, you need 500 of the special in-game currency to unlock any further songs/albums past the base game songs. This is made more difficult by the fact a chest will give you 1-2 gems without character or ad boosts. (The ad boosts will only up this number to either 2 or 4, and character boosts have a low chance of occurring at base levels.) Either cheaper albums (so they can be more easily acquired without purchasing gems) or more gems per drop would be nice.
TL;DR: Good, simple game. Extra content quite a grind to get. Cute. Please fix the problem where game downloads aren’t being counted in this and other Platonic games.

Okay for a free title, but that’s about it.
By Batman Kittyface (Pcmac user)
So first off, this is a complete carbon copy of Muse Dash. Identical colour scheme, scoring system, powerups, even the narration for starting the game sounds almost identical. To be fair, Muse Dash is 2.99 while this game is free, so if you really don’t want to spend a cent it’s a fine alternative, but if you can spare the $3 (or if you have any inclination to buy this game’s $10 VIP membership) you should really just buy Muse Dash. It has a more appealing art style, bigger song library (both included and with DLC purchases) and is just more polished as a whole. Is it fair to compare a F2P game to a paid one? Maybe not, but considering it’s obviously the game this one is attempting to replicate I think it’s a worthwhile comparison.
Also, the music in this game is just… not good. It’s very samey and not particularly exciting or memorable, save for one or two songs in the expansion packs. If you’re looking for an F2P rhythm game and actually care about the music, Arcaea has some great selections (for all the 20ish songs you can get without buying DLC), and Bandori (while really being more of a visual novel than a rhythm game) has some good ones as well.

Alright if you want a regular quality game
By oofeth person (Pcmac user)
Alright alright, this isn’t another one of those reviews saying it’s a “ripoff of muse dash”. Honestly it doesn’t look or play any similar from I’ve seen, but whatever. This game is great if you want a free to play, good quality rhythm game. I’ve already unlocked all of the adventure songs and still have to unlock the extra songs. The songs are fun, and catchy, and they stick through my head through the day sometimes. The level difficulty variations are nice, and they definitely get harder as you go along on the levels. Bonus too, I like how you get a chest at the end of every level instead of after a few. It saves time when you’re reallllyyyt trying to get that one character you want.
One nitpick though. On the weekly challenges, it’s super hard to get a high enough score to get up to the top. I’m not god at rhythm games, so it’s really hard for me to get enough gems to unlock characters.
That’s about it, I’d recommend it if you’re looking for something to pass time.

good game, recent glitches
By caticorn lover (Pcmac user)
i love this game a lot and i play it all the time. i wasn’t planning on writing a review, but recently i’ve had some problems with the game. when i finish a song, it doesn’t show the ending things at first, i have to pause and unpause for it to work. when i do this, it will sometimes change my score slightly. for example, i got a full combo, but after unpausing it didn’t show the full combo message (it normally shows it fine after unpausing), but it did show me that i had no missed. after closing out, there was no full combo image on the song i had played (i hadn’t gotten one before). along with this, when i unpause and it shows me the full combo and what goals i got, i see 1 or 2 random enemies fall in the background, which isn’t a huge problem but i thought it’s worth bringing to your awareness. also, occasionally when playing a song, the hammers/bells will show at the top or the bottom until a hammer or bell has fallen. also not a huge problem, but it’s kind of weird. my last glitch i’ve had is just where the screen freezes for a second, and it messes up what i was doing. this could just be my phone doing this, but since it doesn’t happen on other apps, i thought it would be worth pointing out in case other people have this problem as well. once again, i love this game. it’s a lot of fun, but these glitches have sort of been getting in the way of that. i hope you can fix them, and thank you for creating this game.
