### 1/5 — !

*2021-01-14*

Ээээээ...мертвая игра, пальцы некорректно срабатывают...

### 5/5 — Great game!

*2021-01-07*

The game and musics are so great, beautiful and  to play this is so funny. I would like more musics if possible, and somehow play with friends online.

### 2/5 — Peut mieux faire

*2019-10-16*

L’idée est bonne vraiment, mais c’est vraiment pas pratique de jouer sans galerer avec plus de 3 doigts, faut réorganiser ça et ça pourrait vraiment etre un bon jeu

### 3/5 — Squares too small

*2019-04-21*

I can barely fit three fingers into the space provided with it comes to 3 notes other than that, music is cool!

### 3/5 — Awesome!!! Control...(((

*2018-09-26*

All beautiful, 10/10
Control -10/10 ;c

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2018-08-19*

This game is like piano tiles but a lot more fun

### 2/5 — Pretty, but uncomfortable and no symmetry

*2018-06-23*

The controls make the game uncomfortable to play, it really needed to be a “thumbs only” type of game, as few people are likely to put their phones flat on a table and play with their whole hand. 

The backdrop and retrowave sun are perfectly animated, but the notes coming in are not symmetrical and breaks focus. 

Overall, excited to see what this dev puts out next but this is not a great game.

### 2/5 — Неудобно

*2018-06-22*

Очень неудобно играть на телефонах
