One side which can’t be seen. I’m not sure if it’s usually like this but pls fix it because I wanna make another EP without any issues. ### 4/5 — Love the game *2026-04-30, version 6.5.9* I like this game a lot but I don’t know what’s going on but it keeps saying that my live performances are bad even though it’s at it’s max. (I bought god mode and maxed it out) Please help ### 3/5 — Groovify broken *2026-04-28, version 6.5.9* The in game groovify app is still broken, not letting you scroll all the way down on your page, it stops halfway. It’s been like this for months now. ### 4/5 — ABSOLUTELY WOW! *2026-04-18, version 6.5.9* I’m very excited for this game! It has potential, the realism, the effort, the fun and creativity is amazing. Can’t wait for more updates! :) ### 4/5 — Great Game *2026-04-12* I think the only thing to put in the game are the markets. Like USA, Europe, Latin America and others. The only one chart is kinda too basic ### 4/5 — Bug report *2026-04-10, version 6.5.9* A very entertaining game but there’s a significant bug. When I view contract from soundtrack offer, it led me to the “unreleased song” section instead almost every time. Hope it can be fixed asap. ### 4/5 — Issue *2026-04-01, version 6.5.9* This Game Is Amazing But There’s A Bug That I Have Which Is I Can’t Make My Band Do A Tour For Some Reason It Won’t Load It Loads On My Solo Career In The Game But Not In The Group ### 4/5 — Great game, some bugs. *2026-02-13, version 6.5.7* Please fix Album intel bug. It doesn’t give me a full breakdown of which singles can be hits etc like it used to. ### 3/5 — Groovify is still broken *2026-02-11, version 6.5.7* Whenever you try to scroll down on your groovify page it gets stuck and unable to scroll down. Please fix. It’s been broken for a while now. ### 3/5 — Groovify is STILL broken *2026-02-02, version 6.5.7* Whenever you try to scroll down on your groovify page it gets stuck and unable to scroll down. Please fix. ### 4/5 — Stop Adding things if it’s gonna make it slow!!!!! *2026-02-01, version 6.5.7* This is a great game and I love all the details but please stop adding things because it just keeps making it slower! Once you release more than like one album it starts to slow down, If you have a long career it becomes downright unusable, we don’t need all these meetings with producers and stuff ### 4/5 — Great game but… *2026-01-22, version 6.5.7* My only complaint at the moment is why is it difficult to chart after your very first music debut? It doesn’t what I do I’m not able to chart. Is there something I’m missing? ### 2/5 — It’s good but bugs *2026-01-11, version 6.5.6* I enjoy the game but I keep getting put into a situation where my health will not go up, I have the lowest tier health and fitness as I can’t afford higher ones and my health is stuck at zero meaning I can’t make songs or do anything. I even paid for the premium version but yet I’m stuck in limbo . Reached out via email to devs but no response so only 2/5 sadly ### 4/5 — hm *2026-01-06* numbers stay at 0. you can master a skill in a week. all these levels and conditions. not the best optimization for like old devices (unnecessary but still is a big deal). in overall raw, not always in a good way. will be waiting for your future updates. ### 5/5 — Groovify is broken after update *2026-01-04, version 6.5.5* Unable to scroll down on groovify ### 4/5 — 🥹 *2026-01-01, version 6.5.5* GRS TAX FEES TOO MUCH Also music promotion sucks, why do I have to upload 5 or 10 pics that’s sucks ### 3/5 — Music Group *2025-12-31, version 6.5.5* I genuinely don’t know if music group got rid of I’ve been trying to find it and if they are removed it keeps charging me hindering my gaming progress ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Good game , bad support *2026-07-10, version 6.8.1* So my save was deleted . I was progressed really far . I had over half a billion monthly listeners and multiple diamond songs and billions of dollars and I updated my phone and it had to uninstall apps at random to make room for the update and it uninstalled this game and I lost my game save when I re downloaded it ### 1/5 — The game gets slower *2026-05-15, version 6.6.0* The more music I make the slower the game gets and I don’t like that because it’s messing up my experience a lot ### 1/5 — Health issue and bugs *2026-01-24, version 6.5.7* Was really enjoying this game. Spent a lot of time to get my artist to a stage where I had a record contract of over 200million. After which point everything went downhill. Even though I had elite health and fitness services, my health kept going down to 0 and every performance, tour date etc kept getting cancelled. The game also started to bug out at this stage and would often take long to load the next week every time. Please fix bugs. ### 1/5 — latest update 12/30/25 *2025-12-31, version 6.5.5* i really hate this new update! it just makes everything difficult and not at all as fun as it used to be! it’s harder to promote and the little promotion we do get now isn’t helping even from a label! this wasn’t an issue before! ### 1/5 — Bad update *2025-12-30* I Love the app however … after the new update the game is not working well like I was supposed to be on level 7/8 and it’s stuck on level 4 this is really sad because I really like the game !!! I Already deleted the app it’s impossible to play now … ### 1/5 — Bad update *2025-12-26, version 6.5.1* Honestly, the new update of the game is messed up. The system where you get sick in the game is really bad and it ruins the game. ### 1/5 — Please Fix Ratings and Streams *2025-11-09, version 6.4.0* Seems the game has fell from. It’s promising highs in the start. Skill and Composers have no effect on ratings and streams and it’s hard to start up a career (even on easy mode). Can you fix this? ### 1/5 — Composers not working *2025-10-10, version 6.4.0* Composers are no longer working but we’re working before. ### 1/5 — Streams and ratings aren’t right *2025-08-23, version 6.2.0* The NPC’s get way more streams and their streams last way. And my songs perform poorly, even though I have maxed out stats. Why do I have to depend on composers to skate by on an average rating of 70. This doesn’t make sense… ### 1/5 — MY SAVES ARE RUINED!! *2025-08-19, version 6.2.0* All of my saves that I spent hours on have been ruined by the same glitch!!! My game keep getting stuck at 64% and this is really aggravating as It ruins my saves.. I tried again , and again… Im tired of this will be moving onto another sim. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — This Game is Fire, But… *2026-08-13, version 6.8.5* This game is really, really good. There are a couple of things that I’d recommend for them to add to make it better. (Keep in mind that I am NOT complaining, these are just things that could make this glorious game even better) 1. Aliases I’d love to have an alias to pull some Jane Remover stuff with her Leroy projects. 2. Add Some More Genres I need a few more genres in this game that are pretty popular like Metal, Hyperpop, and Alternative 3. Add Australia, North America, South America, and Asia as Continents I know this doesn’t matter, but America is MOST DEFINITELY NOT a continent. 4. Acoustic Music Maybe? I’m iffy on my own recommendation for this. It’s okay, I guess. It wouldn’t change much at all. Well that’s all really, this game truly is great, and I don’t think I’ll be leaving it anytime soon. ### 5/5 — Best game I’ve ever played in my whole life *2026-08-05, version 6.8.5* I love this game ### 5/5 — Awesome game check out *2026-05-04, version 6.5.9* This game is awesome don’t need spend a penny still enjoy the game check it out ### 5/5 — NEW UPDATE *2026-05-03, version 6.5.9* DROP THE UPDATE ### 5/5 — Record label *2026-04-12, version 6.5.9* We need real label services we can be able to see other artist top songs on there profile ### 5/5 — Amazing game *2026-04-02, version 6.5.9* I love the game it’s beautiful and I’m just in love with the flow and the process it keeps me hooked to the game. But one flaw is that and I really hope you guys see this and fix it, one flaw is the yearly tax collection which is 20% it is way too much please try and reduce the percentage so we can actually enjoy having our money. Thank you ### 5/5 — Great Game however *2026-01-28, version 6.5.7* I love this game! I’ve been playing for a long while now, however something that would enhance the gaming experience is relationships. Platonic relationships with actual artists in the game, directors, perhaps actors, YouTubers, and the ability to have romantic relationships. Marriage and even kids. The ability to take over as the child later on/the child can carry on the family legacy would be an amazing enhancement as well! Otherwise other than that, I love love love your game!🤍 ### 5/5 — Record label *2026-01-18, version 6.5.7* We need real label services we can be able to see other artist top songs on there profile ### 5/5 — Super jeu *2026-01-17* Super jeu je conseille fortement, avec des mise à jour régulièrement ça ajoute des nouveautés on peu vraiment tout faire un vrai jeu de simulation enfin!!! ### 5/5 — Label update *2026-01-14* I think we should have something like a distribution deal with a 50/50 split. Big labels in the game could act as parent labels for a few new labels for upcoming artists. There should be options in the deal for whether the artists get the rights to their catalog back or not. Relationships are key too 😭😭. They already handle composer royalties, so let’s face it: (C) Groc Nation, (P) Groc Nation. Please tell me are we going to see this happen someday?
