### 1/5 — payment bug

*2025-04-21, version 2.4.3*

purchased prestige but never reflected in my account do not purchase in this app！！！

### 1/5 — Loved it till I paid for 7-day prestige and didn’t receive it

*2025-04-14, version 2.4.3*

I paid for the 7-day prestige and I was really charged on my card for it and I didn't received it. Tells me there was some erreur but I was still charged, I’ve check with my bank. And if I try to purchase it again, it tells me that I already have it when I clearly don’t even though, again, I was charged for it. So, what are y’all gonna do about that?

### 1/5 — Can’t purchase anything

*2025-04-05, version 2.4.3*

So the only reason I am giving this a 1 star is because I cannot purchase any jewels or in app purchases. Furthermore, I have to wait 25 minutes to gain 1 life despite the fact that I cannot purchase any more jewels to play more.

### 4/5 — Great, amazing, spectacular, yet some minor things.

*2025-03-27, version 2.4.3*

Verily, this distraction of time exceeds expectations! However, a minor negative characteristic. A characteristic so minor that once executed, joy fills me and you. Indeed, the uttermost limit of speed.. ‘tis low! 3x? Please, laughter I shalt give, but this is ridiculous. I find myself pressing notes ahead of time! It matches my speed not, and this issue prevents me from further progression in ‘Tour’. 

Also, I find myself befuddled to know that Dimitri Shostakovich isn’t in the game! Appalling indeed. Verily, I cannot pardon such nonsense.

### 5/5 — Best piano game!

*2025-03-26, version 2.4.3*

10 out of 10 best piano game to exist perhaps ever

### 3/5 — Fixes

*2025-03-04, version 2.4.3*

the loud noise when missing a note is off putting and beyond distracting

The streak counter makes it difficult to see notes ahead of time and caused nothing but frustration

The notes where you slide from one lane to another are easily mistaken for simple tap notes. (Literally just make it either a curved line)

### 1/5 — 😡

*2025-03-01, version 2.4.3*

Can't even buy prestige, takes money and doesn't give you it

### 1/5 — No sound

*2025-02-20, version 2.4.3*

There is no sound that plays and no way to figure out how to add sound.

### 5/5 — Super fun

*2025-02-11, version 2.4.3*

Such a fun well made game, it should have more players!!!

### 1/5 — Payment

*2025-02-04, version 2.4.3*

Paid for prestige, tried paying three times, each time the payment went through but prestige isn’t activated, scam.
