Fun game, but several issues – Pianista Review

I really enjoy this game, but there are several issues that keep me from giving it a higher rating. Here are some of them: After watching an ad to get a free music point, I often don’t get my music point and instead get the message “Unable to complete ad view. Please check your network and try again.” Well, obviously my network was working well enough to watch the ad — why didn’t I get my music point? League scores are totally geared towards the Light difficulty. Even though I can do well at higher difficulty, which is much harder, it’s usually very difficult to get a higher score on a higher difficulty than you can get on the Light difficulty. Either you should get a much higher points reward for playing higher difficulties, or the League should be split into different brackets for each difficulty. The Version 2.2.1 update said it balanced the league score, but this is still very much an issue. I don’t like how you can get higher scores by upgrading your piano. This is particularly unfair for league play. If people can get higher scores simply by upgrading their piano, then the league competition isn’t truly a test of skill. Apparently Facebook is the only way of syncing your data between devices. Why isn’t iCloud sync supported? I do enjoy this game generally, so I hope these issues will be addressed to improve the game!
