REFLEC BEAT +

This is easily one of the best music game apps available on iOs. I especially love the fact that it supports offline play, which amazingly, many music game apps so not. The local multiplayer option is also a lot of fun, and the music selection is pretty great - I just wish they updated it more often. For those of you who had your scores/purchase history wiped out in the latest update, try deleting the app, re-installing it, and pressing the "Restore Purchases" option in the store. I can't guarantee that it will work for you, but it definitely worked for me!

There is no introduction or tutorial for new players. After finding a hidden "How to Play" menu, you are then shown a bunch of pictures with rules. It's like having a game throw every rule at you at one time, before you even play. My next main problem with the game is the purchasing of song packs. There's no reason to have to have to buy these songs in packs of 4 which are pre-selected. Often there's only 1 song in the pack I like, but I'm not about to spend $4 on one song I want!

As a rhythm game professional, I rank the game six out of ten. The game is fun, but lacking. There is a computer opponent at the top of the screen, making it almost necessary to have same-device multiplayer. The good: The game is very entertaining and addictive, giving little tutorial so players can figure out the controls. The bad: There is no same-device multiplayer. There are only three free songs, this would be acceptable if the song packs were a little less pricey. Take Osu! for example. There are about seven free songs with new packs costing ninety-nine cents. The packs here cost near four dollars. I really wish I could give this a five out of five. But the bad is a little too noticeable. If these things are changed, this could be a very popular game.

After the most recent update, I can no longer download the music packs I already purchased. It is as though the company “took the money and ran”. Really hope a fix is coming soon.

I've played this game for a while and I'm so glad it's on iOS now! I was able to redownload all my purchased songs with no charge so not sure what the others here are having issues with. Great game :)!
