Es ist super unterhaltsam und weckt meinen inneren Rhythmus. Es macht große Freude der Musik zu folgen und diese Rätsel zu lösen. Die Story im Cartoon-Look ist wie die Menü-Gestaltung sehr unterhaltsam und gefällt mir durch die wechselnde und bunte Farbgebung sehr. Die Animationen, welche ebenfalls im Rhythmus ablaufen, bereiten einem wirklich tolle Laune. Super Musik-Spiel! ### 4/5 — Great, but needs a tweak for Bluetooth? *2017-12-18, version 2.1* Absolutely loved this game when it came out. Went to play it again on my iPhone X but the beat is really out of synch, almost on the offbeat, which you can align to in the short term but too easy to forget and screw up often. I'm using Apple AirPods so the only reason I can think is that this introduces a delay because I don't remember it being like that, I simply wouldn't have played it for long. Pleeeeeeeeeaaaasse look into this devs! (Love your other work too 😉) ### 5/5 — Merci pour le patch *2017-12-14* Cela remarche sous iPhone X. C’est sérieux. Merci ### 5/5 — Satisfying challenge *2017-09-12, version 2.0* The good: Clever level design. You can make the game as easy or hard as you want, because it's up to you how many collectibles you go after each level. It's hard and yet not frustrating , a balance that few games are able to achieve. The bad: Very little really. You could say that the music isn't the greatest. ### 2/5 — Meh *2017-09-07* Meh. Thought it would be funner. ### 3/5 — 신선하고 완성도 높다. 근데 노잼이다 *2017-09-02* 흐규 ### 5/5 — One of my favorite classic games *2017-09-02, version 2.0* I'm so happy this has been updated to new phone sizes as well as 64-bit. This is one of my absolute favorite games; it was one of the first to take a one-tap style of gameplay and make it really good. The rhythm puzzle mechanics, the music, the art style: All of it is delightful. Get it and enjoy. ### 5/5 — Make sure your ringer isn't silent *2017-08-30, version 2.0* I originally published a one-star review that complained of no sound, even though my volume was maxed, my ringer was maxed, and I could play other audio just fine. It was fixed by switching off the vibrate switch, which I didn't realize was enabled. When the game says "sound must be switched on," it means it. I'll update this review with my impressions later. ### 5/5 — アップデートありがとー *2017-08-16* 名作アプリが64bit対応できずこのまま終わるのかと思ってました。 とにかく有難いです！ ### 5/5 — Thank you devs *2017-08-16, version 2.0* A favorite classic ios game of mine. Awesome sound, amusing gameplay, cute graphics. All around great rhythm game. ### 5/5 — The best *2017-08-16, version 2.0* Makes all other rhythm games look like pong. ### 3/5 — Needs compatibility update fast! *2017-03-13, version 1.0* Love the game, a brilliant find, I can't believe it's had no updates since release back in 2012 though! And now it seems players are going to suffer because of this, as I went on it today only to find that it is no longer going to work with future updates without a compatibility update. Please read this and update so that all who have your game can continue to use it! Thank you ### 2/5 — Does not work on iPad Pro *2017-01-27, version 1.0* I have used this on older devices, but get no further than the developers splash screen on iPad pro ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — 👎 *2019-01-31* Ожидал что-то на подобие Bob the robber. Система управление ужасная. ### 1/5 — can't play game on new phone *2018-10-28, version 2.1* using the iPhone XR. when I open the app it just freezes on the simogo logo screen and doesn't let me play ### 1/5 — Don't waste your money. 🙁 *2017-09-06, version 2.0* Not at all what I hoped for. Very annoying in fact. ### 1/5 — Ugh *2017-09-03, version 2.0* I don't make reviews on games much but ugh HORRIBLE GLITCHY BUGS CRASHES I CANT EVEN ### 1/5 — Don't work *2017-05-12, version 1.0* Something wrong with this game it doesn't work ### 1/5 — It won't even open! *2016-10-06, version 1.0* I have paid for this and it won't even open. I want a refund! ### 1/5 — Truly dislike it *2016-07-12, version 1.0* I wouldn't have got it if I knew you had to have sound on. Dislike the whole idea of moving to the beat. Waste of money. ### 1/5 — Doesn't work on IPad Pro *2016-03-17, version 1.0* Bought this but won't load beyond the Simogo logo. ### 1/5 — I need my money back *2015-01-24, version 1.0* I took a chance on this one because I don't like puzzle games and now I totally need my money back ### 1/5 — Horrible gameplay *2015-01-18, version 1.0* This is a horrible game. I don't see the allure to this game at all. I took a chance at 2.99 and now I want my money back. Tap to the beat to move? Might appeal to some but I don't believe at all this appealed to so many positives. I couldn't get past 5 minutes of this game. I spent so much time trying to move to the beat and watching the beat drum, than anything else. How is this fun? It is not. Horrible gameplay and horrible idea for a game. Ignore all the positive reviews that are obviously false. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Impeccable level design *2026-01-07* We don’t get games like this anymore. Because Simogo does not develop for iOS anymore. Very well thought out and designed. Precisely executed. A great symphony of visuals, music and gameplay. Please bring back Sayanora Wild hearts to ios. ### 5/5 — Incredible *2023-11-09, version 2.2* The game is perfection. Ignore the bad reviews. ### 5/5 — An App Store Classic *2023-05-06, version 2.2* I hope this gets a remaster on Apple Arcade one day! ### 5/5 — Love this game *2021-04-21, version 2.2* Love it. Why after many years we still don’t have 2.0 yet? Please continue developing. ### 5/5 — Sequel? *2021-02-13, version 2.2* I absolutely LOVE this game! It’s so unique. Nothing else even remotely comes close to its gameplay! I wish there is a sequel planned. I know it’s been nearly a decade, but is there any hope? I’ll pay double! ### 5/5 — Awesome game! Really Recommend. *2020-01-03, version 2.2* Fun, and creative! Just want to say to the creator, Great work! It’s an awesome and fun and just epic game, and good for picking up beats and having song ideas! BEST. SONG. GAME. EVER. Not a joke like the Beat Jumpers. ### 5/5 — One of my favorite games! *2019-08-24, version 2.2* The graphics are great! The levels are challenging! As long as you can step to the best, then you are able to sneak your way to the end. I find that even though I have best all of the levels, I’ll go back and replay them for fun. My only comment is I want more!❤️❤️❤️ ### 5/5 — Love *2018-12-31, version 2.2* Thank you for updating this! Loved it way back when and am looking forward to “beating” it again :) ### 5/5 — Back to reality *2018-11-25, version 2.2* Alright, so the devs saw the game wasn’t working on XR and fixed it. So I’m here to fix that one star into 5. Game is one of a kind and needs to, at least, be experienced once. Good to have it back and playable. ### 5/5 — OMG love! *2018-10-09, version 2.1* Thank you for updating this game! I love it and used to play it on my old iPhone 5!
