It's weird but overall fun! ### 2/5 — It’s meh *2026-07-28, version 9.1.1* The songs are good but I feel like theres not much variety and everytime I download and then after I play a song it disconnected me saying I have no network when I’m at 4 bars full ### 3/5 — потеря аккаунта *2026-07-24, version 9.1.1* игра замечательная, я люблю ее, но система входа в аккаунт или как его зарегестрировать, это просто ужас и отврат, я уже который раз теряю очень прокаенный аккаунт именно из-за этого! я вас ненавижу и люблю одновременно, когда вы исправите это? ### 4/5 — It’s nice *2026-07-22, version 9.1.1* I’m a pjsk player, the notes are a bit confusing for me but it’s really fun when you get the hang of it. Also idk why people are calling this a ripoff of pjsk it was literally made before ### 3/5 — Great game but play the japanese servers instead. *2026-07-08, version 9.1.1* As much as I love this game for its charm and rhythm game aspects the developers of it have definitely slacked on the english servers of it, Dont get me wrong this game is great and is a great rhythm game but the english servers have definitely felt like they’re going down the drain. If you want to play this game I would really recommend to just get the Japanese servers, Data transfer from Gamecenter also appears to be broken sadly ### 5/5 — Really awesome game to play when you are bored *2026-06-25, version 9.1.0* I love it :> Although I am a new player, I thought it was really fun to play this when I get bored or something, I also feel like this game should be recognized on social media like pjsk, since, yeah I came from the pjsk fandom to try this game so I have 2 rhythm games without ads amd I can play thos anytime I wanna play this, I can’t wait for future updates in the future!! ### 5/5 — Awesome game! *2026-06-24, version 9.1.0* Played since summer 2018. The monkey brains who say this game copied colorful stage are clearly challenged up there since this game predates it by like 3 years. Colorful stage is trash btw. ### 5/5 — yay!! so satisfied with this game *2026-06-19, version 9.1.0* i've been playing banG dream for 2 months now this is such a great game!! i love the songs, the characters (i love hagu-chan!!)the units, everything is amazing!! this game is so fun and such a beginner friendly rhythm game!! the gacha is also super generous (for me) and it's pretty easy to get 5 stars!! the gacha is amazing and you can get 2+ 5 stars if your lucky!! ☆ great game yay!! ♡ ### 2/5 — TERRIBLE data transfer *2026-06-18, version 9.1.0* complicated and unclear varies to transfer previous game data transfer. no way i could know i would need my player ID and to create a password. greet players with it. at the start of the game SHOW HOW TO SAVE THEIR ACCOUNT ### 3/5 — Простите что *2026-06-02, version 9.1.0* Я новичок в этой игре я нажимаю в начале на кнопку играть или что там было, и там меня не впускает нажимаю на розовую кнопку повторить и грузит и потом так же интернет у меня отличный я не знаю что делать, сделайте что нибудь ### 5/5 — ako udagawa *2026-05-16, version 9.1.0* I love ako udagawa ### 5/5 — playing since 2018 *2026-05-11, version 9.1.0* I love this game so much. there’s genuinely so much content I’ve never gotten bored. been playing since middle school. i’m in college now and this game is still so fun for me. can be laggy sometimes if you have the 3D MVs on so i’d turn those and the 2D ones off if you want a smoother experience. either way love this game and im super excited to celebrate the 8th year of the english release! :) ### 5/5 — good game :D *2026-05-02, version 9.1.0* banG dream is really good !! out of all the rhythm games i've played (pjsk, sonolus, friday night funking, enstars, osu!mania) bandori is my 2nd favorite rhythm game (enstars is #1). i love the characters and how all of them are unique, the units are different and have many good songs, the stories are good, as someone who doesnt read the stories, the only downside about this game is sometimes the tapping reaction doesnt register the flicks or holds i do which prevents me from getting a full combo. overrall its really good ( + more natori songs plzzz !!!) bandori is older than pjsk btw !! its not a rip off !!! ### 5/5 — Saving Free Stars From 8th Anniversary Star Login *2026-04-25, version 9.1.0* I promised myself that I would not waste those stars until the end of April or the end of the ten plays a day event, until May 31st of this year. ### 3/5 — I can play, but theres way too much cons. *2026-04-23, version 9.1.0* first off, it honestly took a bit too much inspiration from the rhythm game “Hatsune Miku Colorful Stage!” it copies some characters, and is a copy. second,, the registering sucks. it just sometimes doesnt register. i dont even have long nails ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Fix your account transfer system *2026-08-27, version 9.1.2* Absolutely dogwater account recovery system. Even if you do link your account to your google play they have a misleading button that says “link account” in the menu that if you press it, just wipes your old data. They don’t care even if you have literal receipts of your purchases with order numbers, dates, and times. You have to be able to answer a ridiculous amount of questions that most people wouldn’t have answers to even if they lost their account one hour ago. They’re fr like “oh youve played bandori? list every card.” There’s no point in starting over from scratch bc they’ll just take your account from you the second you switch phones again anyway. I’ve never seen something so idiotic I don’t know why they don’t just give you a log in like literally any other gacha I have ever played. I don’t think their support email is even a human ### 1/5 — все норм но *2026-07-16, version 9.1.1* почему до сих пор не было ивента где каору откладывает яйца и затем из них появляются маленькие динозавры ### 1/5 — Good luck if you lose your account *2026-06-11, version 9.1.0* Played this game every night for two years straight, then I got a new iPad. I forgot to screenshot my account ID, and lost the account. If you don’t have those numbers you’re screwed because customer service will not help you. After filling out a form asking which cards I had, how many coins and stars I had, what events I played in, what items I had, etc etc etc. they continued to ask for the same information over and over again. After going back and forth saying the same thing, eventually they just told me they “couldn’t confirm the account was mine.” Literally the worst customer service I’ve ever experienced. ### 1/5 — Game’s dying *2026-05-14, version 9.1.0* 12 hours of maintenance before the end of an event and no compensation shows that they no longer care about the players ### 1/5 — I want my account back *2026-02-18, version 8.4.1* If you delete the game and redownload it without remembering your player ID or setting up a transfer ID and saving it, even if you have proof of purchase you not getting that back. ### 1/5 — Please delete the 2 accounts I accidentally created called Yuuki *2026-02-17, version 8.4.1* Please can you delete the accounts called Yuuki, I didn’t mean to create 2 of the same accounts with game centre. The game is good but it’d really help if I can like log in to the other 2 or 3 accounts with the username called Yuuki. I’m still waiting for this. ### 1/5 — Please delete the 2 accounts I accidentally created called Yuuki *2026-01-25, version 8.4.1* Please can you delete the accounts called Yuuki, I didn’t mean to create 2 of the same accounts with game centre. The game is good but it’d really help if I can like log in to the other 2 or 3 accounts with the username called Yuuki ### 1/5 — would recommend!! *2026-01-10, version 8.4.1* genuinely really fun, cool characters and songs!!! events are super fun too🥳🥳 easy to make friends and easy to get the hang of ### 1/5 — Don't waste your time. *2026-01-05, version 8.4.1* To make a long story short... Devs suck, support sucks, game sucks, story sucks, events suck, cards suck, new 5 star cards added for absolutely no reason... It fell off. The best advice I can give is to go play Project Sekai if you're looking for a new rhythm game. ### 1/5 — There is a bug *2025-12-30, version 8.4.1* When I pull the something, I don’t know what’s called it says it’s failed when I buy even something I can’t even buy it and can you please help me please look at this message I beg you🙏 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — wow *2026-08-22, version 9.1.1* peak ### 5/5 — 10/10 *2026-08-22, version 9.1.1* best game ever ### 5/5 — 3d live *2026-08-16, version 9.1.1* They should add MORE 3d lives songs ### 5/5 — Amazing *2026-08-04, version 9.1.1* I just finished watching all the anime’s and found this game so interesting and cool. But what I would like is being able to exchange coins for paid stars or gacha tickets cos it’s hard for me to get that much stuff. But overall it’s so good ✨ ### 5/5 — My bang dream is fantastic rhythm game *2026-07-29, version 9.1.1* I like bang dream it has come be really like and I would recommend rhythm games ### 5/5 — GET THIS TENYA RIGHT AWAY! *2026-07-21, version 9.1.1* omg guys genuinely its so tuff and its like literally the only game i have cause its that good. im lwk glazing but trust.. so it has covers of anime songs, some vocaloid songs, songs from the app itself, etc!! the art is soooooo pretty too!!!!! uhm also pas rapport but bakudekuuuuuuuu ahhhhhsuhsh ### 5/5 — Touch sensitivity and mv bg *2026-07-20, version 9.1.1* Coming from someone who started on this game before migrating to pjsk, i find that the touch sensitivity for flicks and hold notes terrible. The system doesn’t seem to process or register fast flicking or sliding movements so pls fix if possible!! I would also like to add, is there any way to turn off animated mv entirely? Such as with “BRING IT ON” and “LOST ONES WEEPING” even if you were to toggle control mode to “light mode”, there will be an animated bg and i fond it way too distracting :(( I actually really prefer this game’s mechanics and difficulty but pjsk js has better settings and sensitivity overall so id really love if bg and sensitivity settings were improved ### 5/5 — Just like pjsk and I love it *2026-06-30, version 9.1.1* as a pjsk player for 1-2 years, i tried this game cause i wanted to see more games like pjsk, and i really love this game!! I literally play it everyday and very beginner friendly! I’d suggest you try it if you need to find more rhythm games or you like pjsk!! <3 ### 5/5 — Actually interesting *2026-06-30, version 9.1.1* they have k-on songs. Immediate 5 star ### 5/5 — PERFECT *2026-06-27, version 9.1.0* I LOVE THIS GAME WITH ALL ME HEARTTTTTT --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
