### 4/5 — Help

*2024-01-05*

How do I decrease piracy

### 3/5 — good game but lacking heavier genres

*2023-02-09*

Fun but i want to sign bands that are thrash and death metal, most bands are just somewhere between pop and rock. rock is the heaviest genre ive seen and ive played for hours. heavier bands will complete the game personally

### 4/5 — Game

*2021-08-10, version 2.7*

I think it’s a pretty good game overall, jus need some updating. It’s need more options for tours, we should be able to negotiate their contracts, and buy gifts.

### 3/5 — My only problem with this game is its super easy

*2021-06-16, version 2.7*

We need more content. If not a music inc 2

Great game but the developers are ghostly 

Its been the same for 4years

Eventually replay ability is hindered

Where are the devs 
Why arent u guys consistent

### 3/5 — Seriously great

*2020-07-16, version 2.7*

This game has so much potential it’s ridiculous. If you were able to release albums,  have your artists collaborate with each other and to be able to add custom artists/bands (to sign after you’ve established yourself and got all the updates) but the developers clearly don’t look at the comments on the App Store so I’m sure everyone’s great suggestion aren’t being taken serious.

### 4/5 — Update Needed

*2020-06-07*

An update is well overdue. New features, better chart system and a working one.

### 3/5 — Six years, yet still not a hit

*2020-06-01, version 2.7*

I love this game, but it gets repetitive. I already have five million dollars, and my singers are making five star songs. You should add more to the HQ upgrade, touring , and songs. What is really repetitive though, is the staff. They are so costly, yet they do close to nothing. What I am saying, is that there is not enough content, and there is this kind of dead end in progressing, and that is why I choose to stop playing. Great game though!

### 3/5 — Good idea and okay game needs a huge update

*2020-03-20, version 2.7*

I actually enjoy playing this game. It’s a solid idea and game. It definitely needs a huge update. There should definitely be more options for expanding your label as well as more options for collaborations with not just producers and songwriters but other artists. You should definitely be able to get your own artists to collaborate together as well. This game has a lot of untapped potential and I hope new stuff comes soon. I have currently purchased the last upgrade for the HQ and an just stockpiling cash because there isn’t really much to do once you get to the top and that is the main lack in this game. Add more stuff and keep up on it and my 3 star could turn into a 5 star

### 5/5 — Addictive

*2019-07-12, version 2.7*

I have only been playing this game for a week and now im so far

### 5/5 — Update

*2019-06-17, version 2.7*

Good game.... it’s been a while tho. Can we get an update. More levels managing more artists and a more detail.

### 5/5 — Super

*2019-06-14*

AWESOME!

### 5/5 — Just wanted to say.

*2019-06-12, version 2.7*

As one of the old/new users. I would like to say, I believe this app can be more beneficial for both the app founders and the users by making it more realistic or interesting like, having the options to create your own Artist/Composers or label company individual in the game. who will eventually learn and grow from the progress you are making with the artist and maybe we could stretch the idea of just having musical artist and have more options of different artist because it would give users ideas to think outside the box and look at the bigger picture idk this is all I have at the moment but please anyone reach me if they feel
Like this might big something big or even something enjoyable.

### 5/5 — Any more updates?

*2019-04-15, version 2.6*

Feel like you should be able sign more people hire more people game is such a good game !! Hope more updates to come

### 5/5 — GREAT GAME!! But lets change some things

*2019-02-26, version 2.6*

I feel like the game needs more updates to it. I think the game is great but now i think it needs to evolve. Need some things added to the game new singers new events. Make it awesome. Thats it i just think it needs more so it doesnt die out.

### 4/5 — Basic game and practically completed

*2019-02-23*

A really good game for what it is, but within 2 hours, i’ve got all artists selling number 1s and going on world tours. The game could be expanded upon to make it last longer. But worth playing 😀

### 4/5 — Great Game Need more work

*2019-02-16, version 2.6*

I love this Game so much. I play it all the time the concept of the game is so amazing and clever! But the bugs need to be fixed. I hate the fact that I keep losing fans. You guys need to
Come out with a whole new update. Please & Thank You!!

### 1/5 — C

*2020-11-10, version 2.7*

Chord game is entirely unplayable

### 1/5 — Glitched out

*2020-06-05, version 2.7*

Randomly glitched out and changed my $2.4 million balance to a -2.4 million balance when i hadn’t bought anything. Lost everything in a month after that lol definitely had to uninstall

### 1/5 — CHANGE THIS

*2020-05-29, version 2.7*

Honestly the game has so much potential you make it so stupd everytimt i get to 30 mil somethi g stupid happens and i lose alot of it if that dont change im going to just delete it

### 1/5 — Needs new features

*2019-02-14, version 2.6*

We need a album features

### 1/5 — Repetitive propaganda

*2014-02-08*

This game is amusing for about 30 minutes of play. After that it just gets too repetitive and boring. Occasionally the game asks you to take action against "pirates", whose counts of piracy per song are somehow quantified in the game stats. The actions of "pirates" seems random, as do many other aspects of the game. It is frustrating that the played doesn't have more control.

### 1/5 — Fun for an hour

*2014-02-06*

This game is literally impossible to lose at. Fun for a while until you realize you are just clicking the same stuff over and over and over. Don't download.

### 1/5 — Won't start

*2014-02-06*

The game sadly won't start it gets to the part saying what you like to call your studios and won't let me continue after that idk if it's just me or something

### 2/5 — Not bad

*2022-02-22, version 2.7*

I really like the idea of this game and many of its attributes. It’s fun to play for a while, but gets older fast. It was too easy to get the best HQ and best Artists. My biggest complaint however, is how difficult it is to keep fans. I constantly paid $35,000 on promos but would lose fans faster than I could gain them. It’s very unrealistic and impossible to have artists gain millions of fans.

### 2/5 — Could be better

*2017-05-06, version 2.5*

It's a great game but it has some issues. I feel the fans and other things like that degrade a little too fast, there should be an option to make albums as well, and we should be able to hire more staff. The game also has a bug where it won't let me hire all 5 staff members which is extremely frustrating.

### 2/5 — Could be better

*2016-11-12, version 2.5*

The fans go away way to fast & I shouldn't be forced to play mini games

### 5/5 — More Potential

*2022-10-12, version 2.7*

Love the game!

But the it should have more empire growth,
more artists to work with,
and more staff to hire.

Overall,it’s still a great game.

### 5/5 — Great Game

*2022-08-04, version 2.7*

I played this game a few years back and it was amazing I wish the developers would’ve stuck with it like maybe a part 2 or updates

### 5/5 — Good Game but charts aren’t working

*2021-07-05*

Overall it’s a good game but charts are not working.

### 5/5 — Please update

*2021-01-30, version 2.7*

Let me start by saying I love the game but please update it so there’s more things to do or buy

### 5/5 — Love it but...

*2020-10-04, version 2.7*

I LOVE this app just wish it was updated more often with new Artists  or maybe it had the capability to auto generate its own artists. The same ol marke of artists makes it old after a while since i been playing for years and there is NO OTHER GAME LIKE IT. Please give us a “MUSIC INC 2”

### 5/5 — Good game

*2020-05-05, version 2.7*

It’s a great game the only thing wrong is u can’t use the charts

### 5/5 — Wish there was more to do

*2020-03-26, version 2.7*

I love this game I just wish there was more after you get biggest HQ and have all the best staff hired

### 5/5 — AWESOME

*2020-03-02*

the charting is awesome and everything about the game is cool. I just wish u could add more events like award shows and stuff

### 5/5 — I like it

*2020-01-12, version 2.7*
