### 1/5 — Good game but in need of improvements

*2025-04-18*

Okay so I bought this game just for fun, but there are some very few issues.
First, the character design of the dancers. 
The characters are just a little uncanny, and yes, the frog is scary, but not too scary it’s actually cute. Marta is uncanny though, not how she looks like on the poster in the game. And that’s actually one of my complaints, the posters. The characters on the posters in the game are not how they look like when you pick them. The same with Kim too. She looks young and spritely on the poster, but when you pick her she looks 20 sort of, so improve that, and also the app icon. Please improve the app icon. So I would honestly give this  1star ⭐️

### 5/5 — Amazing.

*2025-04-03*

Just amazing. This game is one of my favorites of all time. There is a problem with the posters, though. Marta looks a lot different from the picture and it bothers me. Kim looks all uncanny and girlish, and he looks masculine and, like, 16 when you click him/her. I gotta say, otherwise, this is a really good game.

Thank you for listening.
Signed, this is amazing

### 5/5 — LOVE THIS GAME

*2025-01-29*

OMG this is by far my favorite Toca game ever!!! But can you add different styles of dance like tap lyrical and poms if you could that would be great Also can you add some mode where you can compete for first place against other dances? but anyway I LOVE this game thank you for adding it!!

### 4/5 — Good game but can you add a bit more

*2024-11-02, version 2.3*

Ok so I downloaded this game a couple of years ago with all the other toca apps (sadly most of them are now private). Anyway I opened the app and there are so many characters you can choose to dance! I think like 10 of them I don’t know something like that. But you can only pick 3 of them. The 2 things I don’t like about It is some of the characters voices. Like one of them their voice is deep and sounds kind of odd. Second is one of the characters is a Apple with a worm sticking out? Like what. Anyway I also like how you can dress them up in different clothing instead of just making them wear their plain clothes that they already are wearing. And also after that you get to practice dance moves I guess? And pick your own songs. But can you add more songs? Their are only like 6 songs and the songs aren’t that good. Finally you preform what you practiced to an audience. You can adjust the lighting, change the background, make your characters big or small? It was kind of weird. Anyway you could also have your audience throw random stuff at you and you could push buttons and the audience will clap, fart, cheer and say boo because they hate your song. You could also have your audience make animal noises. When your done with your song and done dancing, you just repeat the steps. It’s kind of boring, I mean all you do is just pick 3 characters, dress them up, practice dancing and pick a song, and perform in front of an audience. It’s boring when you just repeat the steps. I think what you should add to the game is add more songs, make your own clothing, put makeup (for the girls), and share what you performed to the audience with friends. I hope you add them toca! Also 1 more thing, what happened to the free version? I remember they made a free version with 3 of the characters, added 3 types of clothing, had only one song, and you could perform! I’m a bit sad that they removed it. I guess the free version was for if some people didn’t have money to buy this game, they could get the free version so they could experience this game but with less stuff! Toca please bring the free version back! 

Also, thanks for reading this.

*2024-08-20, version 2.3*
