The game, centered around a music band on tour, disappointingly features no music or sound effects, leaving players feeling that it lacks essential audio elements. This absence of music is particularly striking given the game's theme, contributing to an overall sense of incompleteness.
- “There's no music (it's a game about a music band on tour!!), no sound effects, no dice rolling animations, the tutorial is almost useless, map colors are not very easy to read, and it all just feels 'not ready'.”
- “Weird in a game themed around a touring music group.”
- “Music?”

Gameplay is characterized by quick pacing and easy-to-understand controls, including an undo function; however, many users find it boring and lacking in strategy, with a barebones app that fails to effectively teach the rules or replicate the board game experience.
- “Gameplay is quick, controls are easy to understand, and there is even an undo function (for that turn).”
- “Horrible game, the actual gameplay is boring, pedantic, and has no strategy. The app doesn't teach the rules, is super barebones, and doesn't even feel like a board game.”
