★★★★ Nope!__ 1/17/2025 v1.0.17
Awful
This is the worst game I’ve ever played in my life. I cannot believe I wasted any time playing this mess. Please don’t bother playing this

How do you make an album?
I have no clue how to add songs to albums why is there no tutorial?
★★★★ FunGamer1991 12/24/2024 v1.0.17
Impossible
Impossible to get anywhere in this game losing thousands in the game even when working which makes no sense. This an abysmal try at what the music business looks like. Going to delete this trash of a game today. I refuse to spend money on such a money grab game.

Are you Supposed to Make any Money?
This is a genuine question for any of the developers who worked on the game, are you supposed to make any money? Seriously it’s is ridiculous. I think you have a legitimate better chance at being successful at being a manager in real life, then you do in this game, I’ve played all the way through the year 2052 and the most money I ever had was $21,000. And it’s not me, I know that because there is legitimately nothing that I can do to make more money! It doesn’t matter how viral or talented the artist you sign is, you will never be successful. But the biggest problem to me is that this isn’t the only game you guys have made that has this problem. The production studio in the Actors life game is completely unplayable. No matter how good of a script you write, or how good of actors you hire, unless you have the billion dollars required to keep you energy above or at 100 so you can upgrade your directing abilities, you will never ever make a good or successful movie. It’s ridiculous, FIX YOUR GAMES!

Could be much better
Though this one has slowly started to grow on me, I frequently have artists fulfill their contract just to be told they didn’t and they have to give the money back.
That bug, combined with how quickly you lose health and thus access to other things, makes this one harder to enjoy.
Please tell me you’re working on a fix for the contract bug because it’s happened three times for me in just one lifetime and it’s extremely annoying.
Update: Changing it to 2 stars. I want to like this game so bad but the rate at which your health drops is ridiculous. I could be wrong but it’s clearly being done so people feel like they have to pay for me. Honestly, I’d rather have ADs.

Pay to win
This is the classic game that would be amazing if I could purchase it upfront and not be haunted by micro transactions. Impossible to progress in the game without unreasonable amounts of grinds and/or spending money.
Such a high potential game - sad
★★★★★ River2123 2/8/2025 v1.0.17
Question
I overall like the game so far but how do you add a song to an album? How do you get your artists to record anything? I’m so confused.
