Bad game
It DOESENT even let me start playing the game it is confusing it needs a tutorial
None of the untitled charts are working for me
play rhythm hive

THIS GAME SUCKS
I put in the code to play the charts and NONE of the songs worked all of the backgrounds were gone so I couldn’t play I HATE THUS GAME
F this game
I’ve tried everything to play the damn game, but it won’t work. This game is so bad. Don’t even try it. You’re not gonna be able to play it and it’s made me so damn mad.
Fix the game
This game has been having bugs since I have been playing it, it's been having tons of bugs when my clicks wouldn't count this has messed up my game completely
Bruh
Just not at all what I thought
ads. wow.
you could atleast make a subscription to remove them. 1 star.
Doesn’t even work
I’m trying to do multiplayer in sonolus and it just bugs out and don’t work then second when I’m trying to do the link I did it twice after those times it still didn’t work so I reinstalled the app AND IT STILL DOESN’T WORK the game is a big fat scam.
Only frustrating game
The game doesn’t work like fix your game that’s why project senki is better than this idiot of a game
I CAN'T PLAY
ok so I've been seeing people play this game and j really wanted to play it but when I download it and tried to make an account IT WON'T LET ME like why can't I just get a tutorial on how to actually play instead of looking on the internet praying it would work
Better when it was in its frist stages
I got this app 2 years ago before it even came onto the App Store now it’s just gone downhill I just want to play rhythm games with out ads and loading screens but now it just has to load for like 10 sec there’s an ad every time you play I just want the old apk files back this app suckks
its good but…
tHE PJSK EMULATOR is freAkING buhROkEn
hate it
it was so bad it didn’t let me listen to none of the songs😤🤬👿
Appropriate advertisements
Can we normalize putting appropriate ads please? I keep getting advertisements on 16+ web toons and I'm not so happy to see that especially when I'm not in the mood for ads that pop up every time I try to goto the menu from a song.
Garbage.
Speaks for itself
.
ruined chart cyanvyas, i loved that and now i can’t play it. thanks a lot
:(
I cant Even make an account I Need to sign it. :(
Alan
Please fix the game when ever I play the notes act weird please fix it
It’s lowk boring
I have played PJSK for years and am pretty good at it. So no, that is not why I’m saying it’s boring. It’s boring because of the shape of how you’re meant to play it. Y’know, in the hexagon. It’s also annoying to try to adapt to. I do like the songs on it, but I’m just going to have to say it’s boring unless you’ve been playing it for years.
Ads
Too many ads. Unplayable.
I don’t have 5 hands
This game is fun and all but istg there are WAY to many things to click. I mean why are things moving if I’m being completely honest I would rather play magic tiles. And when I click nothing happens too,the game says they fix their bugs but I think that’s a complete lie. Make the game better for players
Idk how to work it :/
I heard that it’s good but it doesn’t show how to play it or maybe I just didn’t find the tutorial button :|
There are so many bugs with Sonolus Right now..
Ok, I just found this pjsk alternative that i keep playing, but it has so much bugs, Like Chart sfx being delayed, audio or sfx on mute, Unable to load bgm on any type on skin, Servers taking long to load, And etc.
uhhh
I used to LOVE this game because I didn't have pjsk and I love the songs but recently I can't see anything in anyone's favorites and I also updated it. I can even play any songs!!! scam
Error?
It was working just fine but then when I choose a son from untitled charts it just says “Error” is there a way to fix this I’m upset because it doesn’t work anymore :(
Sonolus do better
Sonolus I’ve been waiting for about one hour to play a song. It keeps saying error when nothing is wrong. I’m really sorry for saying this just please fix this
bro
Ok so basically I usually play sonolus on a different mobile device so I tried playing on my moms phone cuz I forgot to bring mine and for some reason every single note was a good :/ no I’m not bad at the game like every single note I hit is good and it’s so annoying because I’m playing and every note would be like “late great early grate perfect good good good bad good good late perfect good” like I gen ain’t bad at the game I fc jinsei expert and I can clear kaijuu and it’s pmo
Its a good game but..
Wonderful game but its not my device but A LOT AND I MEAN A LOT of people are complaining about the same mistake which has been happening to me also no matter how hard I try it always says “Miss” or some other bs. Just play pjsk is better.
The game isn’t bad or good
The game is fine in general but for some reason the timing is so bad. Not to be rude but it makes my gameplay super bad not to mention that the people who make the charts go so off with the notes.
The notes cannot be processed😔
I try to tap the notes and I’m not able to tap them, when I try tapping it doesn’t work even when it’s on the line ( not over it ) overall it’s satisfying and cool but I’ll leave the game for a bit bc idk what’s going on.
Kinda bad…
The game includes highly annoying sound effects that distract from the song, and it’s totally off rhythm too
i don't really like the game
most of the charts are really offbeat and there's way too many Ada throughout the whole game.
