Pianista for Android
Brilliant but... Once you complete a song and it appears in your collection you should be able to replay it without using music points. Once completed, it should be free. Otherwise is a brilliant game, but having to watch an ad every time you want to play really sucks and I don't like it. It's almost a deal breaker. It's not even like there is a pro option to unlock the songs. Plus I don't think the devs actually respond to reviews judging by the reviews on here.
Magnificent rhythm game full of timeless classics. If you love classical music this app is near perfect. Clean beautiful UI and the piano sound is so crisp and sound too. Gameplay is smooth as well. So it really feels like you are playing the song itself. The problems for is that there is a limit to how much you can play until it has to refill again which takes 20 minutes for just one
This game is easy to understand, is fun, very beautiful visually and almost perfect. I have 3 complains about the game: 1) Add a metronome / sound tempo option for those who doesn't know the song or doesn't remember it. 2) (Playing in easy mode) Is very common that the game becomes a little laggy, for 1 - 5 seconds, specially in songs that have a lot of keys in the screen. That lag makes me to not touch the keys properly (impossible to make a perfect play). Optimize the game or, at least, add an option to remove graphics fxs so the game doesn't lag / move smooth. 3) Sometimes the game freezes the entire cellphone. I have to restart it. Sorry for my english :-/
I eagerly waiting this app to support android and finally my dream come true. I like this game very very much but I got one problem. When I completed 1st song with 5 stars I got experience points which was added to rank up. Than I played second song but problem is that when I completed second song it simply doesn't add to old one (experience point). So level up is impossible.
Lovely game, but please do something about the HUD display for the point counter, it is in the middle of my screen to where I can't focus and it blinks everytime I land a note which makes me feel like I am going to have a seizure. Try putting it in a location where it isn't in the middle of the screen and where it is less distracting, thank you.
The music is amazing, the graphics are great. My issues with the game, however, the controls are too wide, and the screen will flip over randomly when trying to put the phone down to play "like a piano", and at times pushes won't register. If there were a way to play with the phone on portrait, it would be great.
A brilliant game, except for 1 or 2 small issues... I had fun with the game. I got it today and I'm already among the Top 10%, but I found 2 issues with the game. The health system is slow and limited. You can have up to 5 "lives" at any one time for free, pushing it to 6 with the daily free ad viewing. This wouldn't be so bad if the refresh rate was any good, but it's a whopping 30 minutes for a single life. The other issue with the game is the limited library with only 50 tracks. The game prides itself with having the most iconic classical songs, but that is a lie. It's missing such classics as Ode to Joy, Fur Elise, From the New World, 1812 overture... Anyway, it has SOME of the biggest classics in music history.
Bogs down whenever I get any kind of notification and it makes me fail songs. Can you please add an option to remove the "Marvelous ##" popups, or at least move them or make it translucent? It's really really distracting
Best rhythm game after Deemo and Cytus! Elegant interface, a lot of classical music collection perfect for classic lovers out there! The downside is the energy system, only 5 energy per 2.5 hours..but considering all mobile games are just like this and there are even worse..this game is VERY reasonable. Also, you can watch ad to regain energy, awesome
that not bad, nice song. But a little problem, the music not really loud, after finished the music, the five star sound too loud, very bad voice for earphone user. Please make the sound low, and while playing its so lagging will make me lose please fix it.
One star lost on a repeated "back end server at capacity" dialog prompt preventing me from posting scores and continuing to play. That's a showstopper in my experience. I thought having a wide play field would be a bad thing, but the devs thought this through with a stellar note accuracy rating system. I still prefer a portrait mode rhythm game over this landscape variety.
This is an amazing game... But you guys should put a multiplayer section where we battle others to see who gets the most notes on the music and gets a reward or something... This will bring alot more people on and it's fun to battle against people to see who's better
Would have gold you guy more, but the game is just broken for me on tablet. I mean I have to hit the notes on the line and when they hit the line I get miss , so I have to hit them before the line and that is a problem I don't know when to start taping or holding never mind the swipe. I'm sure it's a bug because in sync practice withch btw is b.s., I hit the notes on the line and get marvellous. So fix it guys don't ignore this msj. Will keep it for a few days then uninstall if you didn't hot fix it.
*****EDIT: Finally got into the game after re-installing and restarting the game multiple times again. Not entirely sure what was wrong. It is a lovely little game. A lag here and there but nothing major. *****I couldn't even get into the game. I waited 5 minutes for it to load, then it came up with a guest option and a facebook sign in option. Tried pressing the guest option and there was no response. Tried pressing Facebook. Nothing. I fully closed and restarted the app and repeated the process another two times to no avail. I was looking forward to playing this game. Incredibly disappointed.
This rhythm game is better than most. The sync of the notes and the finger presses are perfect (something hard for devs to do on Android), it has lots of songs of varying difficulties. Dare I say it, this is so good it's like the piano version of Guitar Hero for classical music. I use a Samsung Galaxy S5.
Great rhythm game. It's basically Guitar Hero for piano. Unfortunately, there's an energy system. You can recharge up to 5 music points (lives) and they take a half hour each to recharge. I'd happily pay $5 to be able to play whenever I want, but instead I'd have to spend money on gems, then spend those gems on extra music points. Give us an "unlock" option and I'll change my review to 5 stars. For now, I'll be playing very casually.
Why have you put a energy system in the game? How are we going to practice hard songs if we aren't allowed to play more than five times in a row? All in an attempt to make money. And that's okay. But don't do it in a way that impedes the gameplay!!! Find some other ways to make money...through ads(not too much) or mild amount of iaps(not too much). Why can't you realise that this waiting times in a game is the scourge of mobile games and is insulting!? This practice is getting way out of hand now!! Erase the damn wait time system!!! I love the game but you devs have corrupted it like every other mobile game. THIS TREND MUST END NOW!!!
Nice! But today when I entered the game but it didn't reply. I can't control the screen. Is there a fault? My internet is very fine, no problem. I don't understand why it didn't work....
It's interesting to see a rhythm game solely focused on classical music. Other than that though it doesnt so much different from most rhythm games. Not that that's inherently bad. If the formula works why break it? My issue with the game is its heavy focus on microtransactions. Each song you play costs you 1 note. You start with a limit of 5 and it takes 30 minutes to gain 1 note back. Or you can spend real money on the gem currency that can be used to refill your notes or purchase gold for spending on one use boosts. I could see this game being more appealing if they cut down on the length of time you had to wait between earning notes (30 minutes is a bit extreme considering songs are only a few minutes at most) and started you off with a few more at the beginnig so you could enjoy the game in longer bursts right away.
Great game! Loved the arts and environment. But I'm kind sad that I have to wait for 30 minutes to play again. I would be glad to pay some cash to be some kind of pro user and not wait or pay whenever I want to play.
Fabulously entertaining with a very measured learning curve. The graphics, presentation and sound are all on point, with my only gripe being the musical notes (for attempts) you get before the inevitable ads-for-tries kicks in. Otherwise, a stellar game and very well put together.
I love the game and the choice for music but it seems like I cannot progress to level 2. Everytime after a song I get 30 - 50 experience and it never goes up. I am on song 14 and still haven't hit level 2.
The game is well created with mesmerising effects. The issue I constantly face is ' connectivity error '. No matter how close I am to my broadband, this error pops out every single time, disrupting my gameplay.
Wow, really awesome game! At first, I was having doubts in downloading. I thought it was gonna be another crappy piano game, but when I actually played it, I realised it's actually a really cool game! 10/10
I want to play the game not five songs then WAIT AN HOUR 40 MINUTES TO PLAY ANOTHER 5 SONGS. PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT RIGHT? HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO PRACTICE EVERY 2 HOURS!?! GET RID OF THAT STUPID NOTE SYSTEM AND I'LL GIVE A BETTER REVIEW.
Obviously, with screens as wide as they are today using your thumbs it's probably not going to work for everybody. It's driving me up the wall every single time the screen flips upside down because I have my phone laid flat on my table so I can utilize all my fingers for controls. Please update with an option to have the screen never flip. And before you say anything obvious I have already attempted to Simply turn off auto rotate on my phone. Lastly you're out of your mind if you think that I'm going to wait 30 minutes to play one song at a time. I might as well just uninstall it. Piano Tile here I come.
I couldn't even start to play the game. It wouldn't react when pressing either the 'guest' or 'connect with Facebook options' the background music played but the game was unreactive. Tried uninstallinh and reinstalling. Didn't work
I like the game for the fact that i love classical. The controls are very smooth. However. I kinda wish that the combo flashes in front of the notes every time you hit it. Its very distracting.
The game itself is fantastic, but its business model is terrible. Each piece is only a relatively short sample of the original, and you'll have to pay roughly 50¢, or watch an advertisement, for each playthrough of each piece. This includes failed runs. While they do provide some free "music points" (the currency uses to start a piece), it's only a few for hitting certain milestones, and what may be 1 free one every half an hour or so. For a game like this, I would be alright with either buying each piece permanently for a similar price to each "music point", or paying an up-front amount around $5-$10. If you have the patience to watch a 30 second advertisement for every couple minutes of gameplay, then I can recommend this game. Otherwise, avoid it until they change the business model.
Love the game, near perfect, but please do something about the words (marvellous) that pop up in the middle of the screen. It's very annoying and distracting
The game is awesome and NEARLY perfect, the one problem I have that stands out, is the fact that we have a limit to how much songs we can play. At least give us a bigger limit or let us buy some music notes with coins. I'd rather have ads every now and then, other than a limit of 5 music notes. It only let's us play for merely 5-10 minutes if we play 5 songs in a row. Piano tiles would be a great example. Other than that, everything is great, the controls the music etc. Looking forward to a new update soon
I'm sorry but the touch screen just freezes up sometimes right in the middle of playing and keeps making me fail without any hope of progressing by I do think that it's not a hardware fault so I really hope we can fix the situation
While the songs are a nice choice, the controls are sloppy with no real grid marks for the keys, larger fingers and smaller screens can really hurt your performance, and for graphical confusion, the hold keys and slide keys are the same color making the slide to hold combinations confusing as the hold keys cannot be slid into and as the notes fall rather quickly it can become very irritating to differentiate the two different notes.. Change the hold key colors, and that frustration will be alleviated.
I rated this game a 5 when i first tried it, but it comes to a level when it becomes insanely hard suddenly, and demands a stupid combo count in addition to passing the level, which is pure stupid and annoying. Ive reached 40 and stuck for a week and literally was pushed to uninstall.
Disappointed. I was hoping for another great app like Deemo. The graphics are absolutely beautiful, but the gameplay leaves a lot to be desired. It seems to often get wrong where you tap and has a horrid sound that plays when you "miss" a note. Not to mention the fact that the notes on the screen don't even correlate with the buttons you tap. Really?! You get "lives" and have to wait for them to regenerate. The leader rankings are completely taken over by hackers and it just makes any sense of accomplishment for getting a high score in your song feel worthless. Maybe I'll try again some day when this app gets its act together.
This game was very fun at first but the game glitched out to the point where i couldnt play keys when i touched the them. Thc controls stopped working because i touch a key and it doesnt do anything it just misses
This game is really addicting, and looks amazing. The biggest problem is that sometimes when I tap the bar, it doesnt register and I and up missing.
Love iit! Love all about this game, graphics, gameplay, the music of course. I wish there will be more music in the upcoming updates, like my favorite ave maria by giulio caccini pleaaase hehe. Great job guys! Thank you so much for making this for us, best of luck!
Very addicting.... But the problem for me, is that you can only play certain songs at a time. But other than that, the game is awesome

Fun and challenging Love it. I now have a newfound respect for classical piano music like none before. Some I even find a bit familiar in rock/hip-hop(wonder where they got it from) lol. Personally I haven't had any issues. I figured out how to tune the game to my liking and any lag issues were easily fixed. I just hit in the top %10 and I just started. Maybe you guys need to tweak the game a bit. Yes I did have a little lag issue, but I fixed it. And now it runs perfect.
