Unfair
This game is really unfair it caters to a group of people which makes the experience very terrible. You doo all that work to try to get on charts but there is a group of people who can have everything they want whenever they want. It’s very unfair and unless you want to waste your life just to get fked over go ahead and play this game🫶🏻
Unprofessional Atmosphere
An amazing concept with fantastic updates. However, the bugs in the game and the moderators the dev hires overtake the gameplay. Moderators: who have the power to give themself any amount of money, any amount of income, which results in higher streams. It seems like the dev has an amazing idea, but the concept of hiring unprofessional kids who insult players, ruin others gameplay on purpose, etc. Unfortunately, that makes this game a 1 star until situated. Thanks.
Referral code
get one referral code or none and what is today’s
Trash
The game is good the creators just don’t know what they’re doing half of the stuff that is supposed to work doesn’t even work when you sign out of your account. The resend email is broken if you forget your password so that’s stupid.
(Great)
The referral thing is something you need to look on twitter for on their account and wait until they post it usually during the evening or afternoon. But the music sim is great, I just wish I could get more help because I really annoying still not being able to chart while my songs have high streams. So extra help would be amazing. And the bidding thing is confusing, maybe another way to get your songs on the chart?
Same as everyone
I can’t even create an account
???

Engaging Concept, But Major Concerns Regarding Fair Play and Economy
"BeStar" presents an initially engaging and fun music simulation experience. The core gameplay is enjoyable, and the initial value proposition, such as the VIP subscription costing around $10 USD , seems fair.
However, the game's current economic structure and competitive environment raise significant concerns regarding fair play. There appears to be a systemic issue where top-tier players are accumulating vast amounts of currency and "spins" at an improbable rate. For context, the estimated cost for 20,000 spins is approximately $80, and some players seem to be acquiring this amount, or more, every six hours.
This highly unbalanced economy creates a significant barrier for even VIP players, who typically only accumulate a maximum of 2,000-3,000 spins. The competitive aspect, particularly the "Spin area" bidding, is currently unwinnable for the majority, as top players consistently outbid others by exorbitant amounts (e.g., dropping 20,000 over a typical bid). Furthermore, the disparity in in-game wealth, with top players possessing over 100 million in currency compared to the average player's meager earnings, strongly suggests that these individuals may be receiving unauthorized in-game benefits or free items.
While the game is fundamentally fun, the community's highly competitive, and at times, toxic nature, exacerbates the feeling of being cheated. For players who simply want a casual experience, this game is suitable. However, for anyone aspiring to compete, rank highly, or achieve top-tier status, the current state of the economy makes this impossible without a fair chance.
If you are seeking a music simulation game with a more equitable, AI-driven structure, I would recommend exploring alternatives like "Music Wars Rockstar" or "Groove Journey." The current imbalance in "BeStar" made the time invested feel largely unrewarding. I hope the developers address these issues to create a truly balanced competitive environment.
