No sound

Not free anymore

Charged me out of nowhere
I didn’t even opened this app for a while and all the sudden it charged my account. It doesn’t even say what the charge is for.

Lost Purchases
Played this game years ago in high school and loved it enough to buy several books.
Years and two new phones later and now that I have redownloaded it and try to restore my purchases nothing happened. I could not play any of the songs I purchased years ago, and I won’t support a scam of a company.
Also they fired their artists and use A.I. art. Pathetic. How long until the music is A.I. generated too?
★★★★ starfruitcluster 8/25/2023 v5.0.4
New AI direction is disappointing
I bought this game years ago and have loved playing it, but I’m very disappointed that Rayark is switching to using AI for their art instead of hiring artists. The beautiful artwork of the game is a large part of what makes it so good, this shows no respect to the artists that made this game successful. I considered buying the sequel or more songs, but I will not be doing so if all of it is created by AI so that the company can cut costs and replace good art with cheap imitation
★★★★ 别出心裁,大爱 7/13/2023 v5.0.4
Refund please
The interaction is disappointing.
★★★★ ButMadNNW 6/2/2023 v5.0.4
Use of AI art has turned my love to hatred
Loved “Deemo” to death, hadn’t found the time to get into the sequel. But hearing that the company fired humans to replace their hard work on the game’s beautiful art with “AI” art has soured my memories of the first game and destroyed my interest in the second. When all artists are out of work, who will the “AI” steal from to produce its inferior junk art, have you considered that? Hire back your human artists and PAY THEM PROPERLY.

(VERY) old previous review: I love this game and even though I've had it for months and have gotten full combos on most easy/normal tracks, I keep going back to favorite songs again and again - not trying to improve my score, just for the fun of playing and listening to them. But I want to find out what happens next, so please add more to the story! :)

★★★★ FDotWM 10/25/2022 v5.0.4
Doesn’t seem to work
Stuck on loading screen
★★★★ M1styMelody 10/23/2022 v5.0.4
Can’t even play
I just bought the game but it keeps telling me I need to restore my purchase, but there isn’t a way to do it, it’s already downloaded and I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling. Total waste of money and time trying to get this to work. Not to mention that even before I got the game running it was stuck on a loading screen.
★★★★ Electrovana 1/22/2022 v5.0.2
Dang do not buy
Ive wanted this game for so long now and i finally got it. Complete let down. Slow paced and not what you think it is.
★★★★ Huge Reply All Fan 12/5/2021 v5.0.2
120$ for all the songs
best game ive ever played
★★★★ Theo 888 11/12/2021 v4.3.0
Buggy
Don’t know if it’s a new update but very laggy on my 2020 iPhone 12. I have a 5-year-old PS Vita that runs this game smoother with no issue. My iPhone 6 on iOS 9 never received the new update and don’t lag at all compared to the latest version of this app running on an iPhone 12.
★★★★ Laplaces demon 9/20/2021 v4.2.0
No sound in game
Game has no sound. Impossible to play enjoyably.
★★★★★ Tina019850 9/15/2021 v4.2.0
I LOVED this game…
Until I purchased a new phone and was unable to restore my purchases. I put money and time into this game. Ive been trying to resolve this problem for weeks now. The game won’t load past the Play menu. I’m done with it now.
