Music Empire: Rise to Fame

Asked for a subscription after 30 seconds of gameplay to get to the next event. Cannot customize the character. I can't tell if I would like it due to the money grab.

Biggest money grab I’ve ever seen didn’t even last a minute on my phone. Literally 30 seconds in the game after like 3-4 prompts you get hit with a ad and a 1 hour lock out before you can even play again. The only way to get past it is if you pay either $5 dollars a week to play the game or $70 a year… in comparison triple a games for console or pc with millions of dollars in funding are a onetime purchase of $70 base at most. There’s no reason a MOBILE game should be pricing their game more than top of the line console games

I bought the weekly subscription it’s says you get all the storyline but I still have to use gems to make choices and there isn’t a gem free option just wants you to buy more can’t move past this point and there isn’t a way to earn free ones either

I can’t believe this app thinks it’s a good idea to put up a 40 minute wait paywall after THIRY (!) seconds of gameplay. It looks like most of the good choices of this game is forcing the user to choose the answers which cause diamonds, which is the premium currency of course. Avoid at all costs.

Never downloaded and deleted a game so fast. I can still see the indent of my finger print from the expedited hold and remove. First the ads are ridiculous but the seeming punishment for refusing to spend is the crux. We get it money makes the world go round. I don’t mind a 30 second - 1 minute ad but when there’s a 40+ minute ad preventing playtime during the first 30 seconds of playing the game that’s ridiculous. It says either pay or watch more ads for diamonds to skip 40 minutes of sitting on a screen “encouraging” you to pay. I say “encouraging” in quotes because it’s more akin to a threat. Update: Gave the game another try to see if it wasn’t absolutely garbage silly me. Got past the ads and decided okay maybe it’s worth a shot and then you get to a choice where all the choices require diamonds? Not a single free choice or a skip button. So not only do they make money from their aggressive advertising they then try and force you to pay to play the game.

It’s a good game has potential. But I played for 2 mins and saw 3 ads and had to use diamonds or purchase a subscription to skip time which was 50 mins. Deleted it as soon as I downloaded it

Way to costly and too many ads

This is the first review I’ve ever done on a game and it’s because this game is that bad. The free version of the game is floooooded with ads, so sure I pay the 4.99 subscription fee to remove the adds and not wait 45 minutes to continue the story. Then about 5 minutes later I learn I have to buy diamonds to continue the story. What a joke!!!

There are simply way too many ads in the game.
