Overall, the game is seen as enjoyable but heavily reliant on grinding, with mixed feelings about its impact on gameplay.

  • stability34 mentions

It delays for about 3 to 4 seconds before returning to normal, which is really annoying because I like to dance to the beat and sing along. I can't get immersed into the game if the song keeps randomly stopping. Please reply and fix this for me; that's why I'm giving this game 4 stars instead of 5 like the original app.”
    • “I would have given five stars across the board, but the game occasionally freezes during play and sometimes kicks me out entirely.”
    • “It was fine at first, but suddenly everything glitches, and the stuff I got recently just disappeared. I didn't even get my money back when I collected my egg that took 12 hours. It glitched and went back to the nursery, which somehow became 16 hours to collect the egg. Please fix this.”
