Way to many adds to even play the game unless you want to pay for everything.
Crazy Expensive
I don’t like that I have to download this to find out the crazy amount it cost. Forty dollars a month is insane. World of Warcraft is less than half of that…
This app a scam
This app is a false app it doesn’t even open it opens other games you cant close out from. This app deserves no stars
Zero stars if possible
Downloaded this game after seeing an ad. Was able to play 3 songs total and now every song I try to play receives a download error.
BAN THE AUTOCLICKING HACKERS!
Does not make the game fun for the non hacking people who have to manually tap to play! update: NOW IT WILL NOT LET ME PLAY ANY SONG AND I GOT THE TRIAL
Fix the new songs
Game was cool until these new songs got added in and it literally made the game unplayable because when i go to play them it says there was an error downloading . Ive deleted the app and redownloaded multiple times and still nothing
Worst game so many glitches
Too many glitches to play
Mid
Its a super fun game, but i wish there was a bigger variety of songs, and i also wish that they didnt have an ad at the top of the screen while you are trying to play that shows up randomly that will shrink your playing field and usually make you mess up and lose the round or restart when your trying to get a perfect run.
Put Free Bird back.
Put Free Bird back.
Too many bugs
Every time I try to play a song it says an unexpected error occurred please try again. I deleted and reinstalled the app. Restarted my phone. No change
Needs more KISS!!!
This game lied there are no KISS songs
FIX BUGS
I cannot even play any songs anymore all it says is an error occured.
Too much money
I had the game. Paid $60 to unlock all songs. When it expired they wanted way more than $60. It is a cool game but not worth what they are asking!
the songs just don’t work
i don’t know if its my internet but i tried multiple times and it gives me error that it doesn’t work even though i watched the add MULTIPLE times and i’m getting sick of it
DO NOT GET
There are way to many adds. Everywhere you look, there is an add. Every song, add. DO NOT GET. Airplane mode doesn’t work.
Frustrated at this game
Game started freezing and also froze my phone up entirely uninstalled the game and reinstalled the game lost all of my progress and i put so many hours into this game absolutely disgusted
awful app
love the game but this app is evil at its purest form 2 minute long ads and the games won’t even load and the price for no ads is insane bruh
Typical p2p bs
Game charges $10 A WEEK!!! I don’t care how good your game is ….. it’s not worth that!
Downloading songs and “errors”
When I try to go play a song and download it, it says “unexpected error” and I can’t play any songs at all. When I do battle, mid song it says “unexpected error” and I end up losing the battle. Fit it please and I’ll redownload
ads make it laggy
i played this game when it had bootleg songs, it was fun but now that theirs ads playing while ur in the song it just makes it laggy, u can still keep ads in ur game but instead can u make them only play when ur on the home screen and for rewards, instead of playing during the song
Stupid
I’m pressing the buttons on time and it says I got it wrong
Ultra Greed
Game was fun but then it asked me for $40 a month and I immediately uninstalled
Could be fun
Music cuts out. Timing way off even when tuned.
Was fun before it started glitching out
Was my favorite game until it got to the point where I can’t even play through a song because it glitches so bad. It’s now my biggest irritant!
Guitar band
It was a super good game when I first got it now there’s ads on screen while your playing and it’s super laggy can hardly play the game anymore.
Pay to play… also,
Ted Nugent? Really?
Fix your game
Every time I get in the middle of the song, it starts skipping and jumping on me where I can’t hit the notes
Trash
This game is trash it doesn’t even sink up with your presses even if you try to sync it
Good but has problems
At the beginning the app worked fine then all of a sudden all the songs that I watch a video to unlock doesn’t work. Every time I try to load the song it’s says “An unexpected error occurred. Please try again.” But it never works. I’m addicted to this game and I wish to play more in the future.
unexpected error not able to play all songs
keep getting unexpected error and if i don’t wait for the song to not load it’ll pop up in the middle of me playing another song and mess me up
Song Downloads Fail
The game itself is good but when trying to pick literally any song after the initial play intro I get a unexpected error. Redownload and turning device on and off does not fix the issue.
Not even worth playing
The game is fun. But the ads are way too long and the ad free is priced like you guys don’t want people to pay for it.
Could’ve Been Great
I made this review the same day I played it. The version of the app was the most recent - no updates were required. They have music I’ve heard of, but the game isn’t worth playing because the notes are off beat from the song. I have to hit the chords way too early to count and it’s not on beat. I deleted it.
No Dragon
Doesn’t Have TTFATF and tbh doesn’t have many good songs
Great Game But . . .
Love the music selection but it feels like the note placement doesn’t always line up with the songs beat. This really distracts from the overall enjoyment.
Great game, but terrible prices
The game play is fun and the song choices are good, but the price for more songs is absolutely ridiculous. $10 a year is one thing, but $10 a week is just flat out insane.
Good at first then gets bad, quick! DON’T BUY ANYTHING!
At first it was fun and I was enjoying the game. I almost bought the VIP package to unlock all songs. THANK GOODNESS I DIDN’T!
After getting to level 2.5 I noticed the songs stopped downloading and I’m now unable to play unless I buy a song using tokens. Even songs I WON in events or watched ads for won’t play. It just says “downloading song” for like a minute and then says “error occurred”. It does this for all songs except the ones you pay tokens for! How scammy is that? And it’s not my device or my internet because everything else works fine. The only way I can play is to play solo, which doesn’t give disk levels or events. And it turns out the songs you win in events you can’t even keep because why is a song I won’t in an event have an ad on the play button when I try to do battles?? Scammy. I don’t recommend for any long time play. Playing this game once or twice at an airport to pass time, sure. Long term and give the devs money? NO! Do not do it. You will waste your money and support development team that scams people.
The game has nice graphics and stuff but none of that matters when you can’t even play :/ There are other apps that are better than this one and you can actually play the songs you win. They aren’t locked behind a pay wall or ad wall.

wow just wow
now i have to pay to play pro songs? never had to do that and now u want my money so i can play a little bit harder version of a song? greedy money hungry people 😭😭😭 def will be deleting this game
Decent until
Game was fun the first few weeks and i literally played every single day. Now it has gotten to where I can’t earn new badges or throphies because for 5 days now they are only putting the same songs on events which I have already won and it’s become boring. I guess they hope to get you hooked and then cut you off in hopes of spending money on a monthly subscription. I ain’t going for it and spending that much on game app. I’m waiting 1 more day to see if they actually list a new song in the event and if not I will be deleting
Hate the new update.
What’s even going on? How’s the new update a downgrade?
1. Same song keeps being played back to back on events.
2. That super Annoying sound it makes when you miss a key takes away so much play focus.
3. The constant pop up to buy the subscription (which is an ad. ) I paid to take ads off the game but you all keep sending pop up ads about your subscription. So I’d like my money back for that.
4. I’m not the only one who thinks the new update totally ruined the game.

Alright but
I used to play this game last December and it was okay besides not being able to play songs solo now that I’ve came back you can not possibly think it had been a good idea to put ads when your trying to play a song literally HAVE YOU PLAYED YOUR OWN GAME it’s so so so glitchy due to the new ads when your playing a song and some songs get tiring to play and listen to because of the constant repeat of them there is little to no diversity without spending money
Awful pricing
It’s a fine app. Hallmarks of rhythms games are present. But wow, that pricing is horrendous. $10 weekly, $40 monthly, or $300 annually. Objectively that is not even close to worth it.
So many ads, super glitchy
I’ve had this game for almost 2 years now, and it is so much worse than what it used to be. This game used to run smoothly and have hardly any ads. Now, they’re plastered all over the screen. I can’t even see my old high score on songs because an ad is blocking it. The amount of ads on the screen also make the game stutter like crazy, especially when the pedal score multiplier is activated. It’s almost unplayable. And the subscription cost is astronomically high. 300$ a YEAR?? That is legitimately ridiculous. I would have rated this game 5 stars 2 years ago.
Ads galore now
The game used to only have ads after and before a song is played, now there’s ads during the song being played, and it’s 3 ads that cause lag in a game where input matters. There yearly price is absurd on top of that. The original ad method was great, non intrusive.. games nearly unplayable now.
Too much for too little
This game is fun. But that’s the only reason why I’m giving it 2 instead of 1 star. I used to play a ton of this game but I realized the 120 something odd dollars I spent on this game could have been better spent buying the actual guitar hero game.
My criticism is this:
1: the price is way too expensive
2: the songs are cheap recreations of the original to avoid copyright and cut in half.
3: the multiplayer I’m almost certain is fake
4: the progression is mediocre at best, and the only meaningful progression is unlocking more songs. Everything else is just for the multiplayer.
The only pro is the gameplay being stable and fun. Which is what let me play the game for 10 dollars a week. I’ve spent so much more for so much less, the next time I play anything like this it’ll probably just be guitar hero. And I’ll save hundreds over playing this.
