### 5/5 — It's a masterpiece.

*2026-03-07*

Great

### 5/5 — Wonderful music, story and animation!

*2026-02-09, version 1.0.5*

This is one of my favorite games, wondering why only a few reviews here. The part that the girl and crow call and response is amazing. The boy makes me think about Jimi Hendrix.

### 5/5 — Parfaite symphonie

*2025-12-22, version 1.0.5*

Un superbe jeu mêlant un graphisme et une musique parfaite et une histoire prenante. Bravo !

### 5/5 — Un beau voyage musical

*2023-11-09, version 1.0.5*

Un super voyage dans les années 70. Pas de paroles, juste de la musique tout au long du road trip de notre héros aux allures de Jimi Hendrix. Et c’est ce qui rend le jeu immersif, on a l’impression de faire partie du voyage et du groupe et de partager les moments jouissifs des concerts, ceux plus cool de création musicale, ceux où l’on joue juste pour le plaisir. 
Les graphismes et prises de vues sont cinématiques et parfois, je ne savais plus si je regardais un film ou un clip ou un jeu. 
Bref, si vous aimez cette niche musicale avec toute l’ambiance qui va avec, vous ferez un petit trip bien léché, porté par une musique qui restitue l’esprit des groupes de cette époque (the who, jimi hendrix, pink floyd …). Pas de riff diaboliques mais des petites diificultés que le groove ne saurais résoudre. J’ai galéré sur un rythme avant de m’apercevoir que c’était un ternaire. Des syncopes des contre-temps, bref tout ce qu’il faut pour balancer un peu.

### 5/5 — Incroyable

*2023-04-06, version 1.0.5*

C’est le meilleur jeu musical !

### 5/5 — Excellent jeu

*2022-09-21, version 1.0.5*

Excellent jeu de rythme qui inclus le français

### 4/5 — A Fun Challenge

*2022-09-19, version 1.0.5*

The way the notes are placed on the same arc in each level, I feel like it’s just as much an exercise in spatial awareness as it is rhythm. I was happy to follow through many challenges to the end of the touching albeit confusing story.

### 2/5 — So good, too bad, but why?

*2022-09-01*

Played this beautiful game for a couple days. Loved it. Put it on pause to come back again to it after some time. The time came this week. Felt like  getting on the VR and resume touring!  But guess what? THERE IS NO SOUND ANYMORE. Try playing a rhythm and music game with no sound coming out. Good luck. Tried erasing the files, re-uploading the game, to no avail. A MUSICAL STORY GONE MUTE.
What a disappointment.

### 1/5 — What a waste of money!

*2022-08-18, version 1.0.5*

The concept is great but the execution is terrible. I have been a musician for years and have a very good sense of rhythm but I can’t even get through the first level!! You have to complete a level perfectly before you can move on to the next one and even if you miss the very first note of the sequence, you have to listen to the entire sequence before you can try again. Save your money and avoid mega-frustration; buy something else!

### 5/5 — The best mobile music game

*2022-06-13, version 1.0.5*

I’ve played hundreds of music/rhythm games, and I make my own music games, and this is the best mobile music game I’ve ever come across. A delight to play.
