Tap Tap Beats music game

The idea of this game is absolutely wonderful: you can earn different unicorn skins and boards, the game is visually pleasing, the music is great, and I love to tap to beats; however, the game doesn’t quite deliver. I see a lot of people complaining about ads, and it’s true that there are an obnoxious amount of ads, but if you turn off your internet on your device they go away. My problem with this game is that the music does not correspond with the visual. You can try to base your taps on the music as much as you want, but it won’t work. I’ve been playing instruments for years now, so I know how to keep beat. The other problem is that the beat the game bases the visual on changes from the bass, to the actual beat, to the melody- it doesn’t stay consistent. If you can fix these problems, I would give a much higher score.

The game itself is a good idea and addictive, but the ads are just too much. Every 2 deaths (which can sometimes go by very quickly) there is an ad. I get it, it’s a free game so it needs ads, but it’s getting to be too much. Stuck on a level? Well be ready to watch 30 seconds of ads every 2 tries. Run 3 levels without dying? There’s an ad waiting for you. Another thing with the ads is some of them are inappropriate. This game is for ages 4 and up, but with the ads of kissing, making out and other things don’t seem to be very 4 year old friendly. I’m not sure the parents of a small child would want their child to be seeing those kinds of ads. My little sister loves to play this game but since I’ve been paying attention to the ads I can’t let her play it. Another thing about this game is that I find that my phone heats up very quickly and I don’t play on a bright screen. My battery runs out extremely quickly and the game glitches way too much. I am proud to say that I am deleting this game after I write this review. Really, fix the game.

Whenever I sign onto the app, I have to try three or four times to reset it, because the music isn’t playing! I’ve gone into the settings, turned it on and off, shut it off, turned it back on and it still didn’t work. Slightly frustrating since that is the point of the game. (I have an iPhone SE) But overall good design. When the music does work, I have nothing to complain about. The sound is great, and it doesn’t lag. [note: I finally figured it out. Whenever I have my phone on silent for this, the volume is won’t work. I don’t know how it’s supposed to be but... yeah.]
