- Detailed and realistic K-pop idol simulation with various management features such as recruitment, training, song and album production, and performances.

- Active and responsive developers who listen to feedback, regularly update the game with new content like award shows, and maintain a supportive player community.
- Graphics are often criticized as outdated, low quality, or unattractive, reducing visual appeal.
- Excessive tapping for training and gameplay can be tiring and repetitive; players desire more automated or varied training methods and mini-games.
- High in-game costs and limited ways to obtain premium currency (diamonds) make progress slow and challenging, with many suggesting easier earning methods or lower prices.

Users appreciate the music creation aspect, enjoying making songs and albums, but desire more features like producing full albums, solo and subunit projects, diverse music genres, and multilingual song versions. They also request expanded music-related activities including concerts, tours, music shows, award functions, and social media integration to enhance realism and engagement. Suggestions include greater control over songwriting and choreography, improved chart and streaming systems, and options for collaborations and promotional events.
“I really luv it, like I can produce every song in the album for my group and I can choose whether single, EP, mini or full album.”
“I love the game, but I have a few recommendations: survival shows, tours, variety shows, solos for group members/line distribution, more clothes + hair options, more merch options (clothes/season greetings), more genres of music, songs in different languages, repackaged albums, covers, concerts. I think that these would be great to add to make the game even more fun than it is.”
“It's great and more realistic album creating but I hope we can make our own sounds for each song or beat and more genres and more months award shows, events, produce 101, album chart, single song charts, end of the year award show, more categories like best performance, people choice, solo performer in award show and of course the world tour and concert tour and more audience, locations, MV locations, dresses, costumes.”
“Because of it currently being too short, I actually had to shorten my song names.”
“The game is good, but it feels really hard to succeed when selling an album/song, money, and to win on different music shows.”
“The rebalanced version of music shows has made winning a music show very hard.”
