I really love it! The arrows chomp on the music notes. I would love to see the ability in the future to change the background colors and the arrow to some other avatar of my choice. Awesome price and love I can load my own music. The Warp Mode is flipping hilarious!

It's a pretty fun game until it starts lagging and messes you up.

Fun and crazy, but sometimes scary.

Beatstream makes my music feel like reaching for the stars! I'm so happy I found that interesting! When I first got it, I tried playing "California Sea Otter", and it totally worked! Lullabies are the easiest in this game because they are slow and soothing and cause very few mistakes. Those are my pluses of this game, but here's its minus. It's Warped Mode! This mode is downright scary because not only the speed of the song gets faster or slower, but the pitch of the song gets higher or lower, depending on the speed. It's like the WarioWare series. In this game, warped mode's faster AND slower are not better, and tragic silence is even worse! That's right! Tragic silence is when the song winds down to a complete stop. That happens in both modes. The only song I have played in Warped Mode was "Happy Birthday to You" from the Antique Music Box Quartet, because that song, with help from Warped Mode, could change its mood from soothing to really fun or super sad. The slower (and lower-pitched) the song gets in Warped Mode, the scarier AND sadder it gets, just like when a Yoshi's Smile Meter loses all of its petals in Yoshi's Story. Remember: Song's Sadder Change = Musical Nightmare! I have 63 songs, but none of them are either classical or from video games. The improvements I'm looking forward to are the iPad version and the endless mode, in which the song starts over after finishing and you keep playing until your Tragic Silence appears!

It's an ok app. I don't like it

I find it boring. Songs feel too long. I want to feel like I am making music. I love the "magic panio" app smule has though. Why does the back ground also turn blue? Please fix that. It's horrible for the blue notes. Make it white or something.

Really?

The game is okay. And to the idiot who is complaining that the songs must be from your playlist:<br/><br/>Did you even read the first few sentences from the main screen of the app, which clearly state that you use songs from your iTunes library? Or are you just tap-happy and clicked the button in two seconds?

Regrettable purchase

The only appealing thing is that you get to use you're own music library. The gameplay is boring and the beats don't match the music well. Just a waste if time and money

Amazing game for music lovers!

Im hooked! I think the reason why some people dont like it is because it doesnt simply go &quot;with the beat&quot; of the song like people expext. It switches between beat, lyrics, and instrumental. I coulb be very wrong but i think the app analyzes the wave form by its peaks which is sometimes the consistent beat and sometimes not. Anyways i love it. It matches well once you get used to the rythems and the twisty arrow. I love warped too. Ive played classical, electroni, and even my own songsi wrote and i truly enjoyed it. Its a game where i can finally play along to KPop! I love!!!!!

Here are the facts: this game is not musical at all and does NOT, I repeat NOT musical at ALL. I am a person who adores musical games, and this disappointed me. When the song was loading, I thought the game was analyzing when and where the beats are in the song. However, the game was just plotting the beats at random points in the song. I was playing the magical guitar when I saw the advertisement for this game. I thought the concept of it was awesome and saw the price. It was .99 cents and I rarely spend money. I saw that it was made by smule and instantly bought it. I was deeply disappointed by the simplicity of this game. The only good part about this game is the changing colors of the background. If you are looking for games to kill time, I highly recommend magic guitar also made by smule. Please do not spend your money and teach smule a lesson.
