★★★★★ "Please Fix Ratings and Streams. Seems the game has fell from. It’s promising highs in the start. Skill and Composers have no effect on ratings and streams and it’s hard to start up a career (even on easy mode). Can you fix this?" - Jaketurner559

★★★★★ "All Randomized. The game isn’t actually a simulator, and it doesn’t look like you can effect the quality of your work in any concrete way. You sort of just have to hope the RNG rolls in your favor for whether or not the audience likes your music. Boring." - Concerned Citezen.1.

Please Fix Ratings and Streams
Seems the game has fell from. It’s promising highs in the start. Skill and Composers have no effect on ratings and streams and it’s hard to start up a career (even on easy mode). Can you fix this?
Composers not working
Composers are no longer working but we’re working before.
MY SAVES ARE RUINED!!
All of my saves that I spent hours on have been ruined by the same glitch!!! My game keep getting stuck at 64% and this is really aggravating as It ruins my saves.. I tried again , and again… Im tired of this will be moving onto another sim.

impossible
you cannot make any moves in this game it is literally impossible to get any hype the game is so complex it just makes me confused honestly i don’t recommend this , feels like a cash grab and it probably is , it is very difficult to get any sorts of motion in this game , the ui is absolutely bad don’t play this game , suggesting also when i release a album i cant get sells the album does not show on the grooveify/spotiify i dont see the thing there.
0 everything
They played this game in 20 to 30 minutes of my life trying to release songs that would get plays and I maxed out every stat but still zero listeners this game is horrible 1 star also if you you want one that’s better download music wars.
Edit:
I don’t think the 4 to 5 star reviews are real
Edit 2:
I found out how you promote your songs to get listeners. You either watch a million ads or you pay for the premium that’s in the game

FIX THE TAX,AND STOP USELESS UIADTES
This is my best game,but you guys keep running it with useless updates,instead of you guys to find a way to fix the slow progress issue that occurs the moment you play the game for so long,but you keep ignoring the main issue with the game and keep bringing useless updates,and now you introduce taxes,almost all the money I made in a single year is being debited,it doesn’t matter if I made loss that year,they will still deduct almost half of the revenue I made which doesn’t make any sense,you need to introduce things we can buy in the game,like houses,cars jewelry,private planes and many more and you can also introduce more new artist and remove the age count,it doesn’t makes the game fun,and introduce a leaderboard showing the richest artist in the game,which updates the more you make more money,the most important bug you guys should fix,is how the game get slow when you click on progress,you guys should please fix this,until the just 1 star,game is good,but can also be better
No Streams or Listeners?
im literally over a year in, and the only streams i get are from songs i didnt even promote, im constantly posting on media and now my popularity literally wont go above 12 and the songs do literally no numbers
Worst Music Sim Ever
I’ve played music simulators before. But this one is just terrible, When I first downloaded the game, it was Just a black screen with the G logo. I had to restart the app, there are misspellings and How do you even advance a week? This game is confusing and was probably made In a day.
This New Update
As someone who has been playing this game for awhile before this new update, I loved the customization. It stood out amongst the other games. However, this new update has added unnecessary updates, relations have not added anything but annoyance to the game, the new layout
sucks the old one showed everything and now you have to wait for 3 seconds before you can look at your normal stats, and the last thing adding health and happiness is horrible, I can’t focus on the fun of the game if every 5 seconds I have a new disease and I have no happiness! This new update sucked the fun out of the game.

Fixes
I’m about to write a somewhat lengthy Review. First off taxes 20% is way too high, it’s already hard enough to make money but now you gotta worry about taxes? It shouldn’t exist to begin with it’s just gonna make players go away. Second is this doesn’t feel like a simulator there’s no real way to make your songs better, from upgrading stats and promoting doesn’t do anything from what I’ve seen. You basically putting time to upgrade stats just for it to not matter it looks like rng. The game has potential but self afflicted wounds makes it not very enjoyable.
Could Be Better
Firstly, what’s the point of signing in with google or apple if our saves are just gonna disappear regardless? I’m tired of signing in and having to start over because my saves disappeared. I spend a lot of time building up just to have to start over.
Secondly, the percentage on the taxes needs to be lowered and the amount to collaborate with others needs to be lower. Management should be lower as well.
