Dinsun Expert Review

Our Expert Score

79/100

Kalimba Royal is a peaceful breath of fresh air in the crowded music game category. Unlike rhythm games that focus on frantic tapping and high scores, this feels more like a digital instrument. The sound quality of the kalimba tines is crystal clear, and the haptic feedback gives a satisfying sense of 'plucking' the keys.

The library of songs is varied, ranging from classical pieces to modern pop covers, all rearranged to fit the kalimba's unique, ethereal tone. It serves as both a game and a relaxation tool. My only minor gripe is that the higher difficulty levels can feel a bit cramped on smaller phone screens, but on an iPad, it’s an absolute dream for anyone who loves lo-fi vibes and melodic puzzles.

Yes! The note layouts and tabs used in the game correspond to standard 17-key kalimbas, making it a great practice tool.

Lots of tabs
Tue Sep 10 2019 Lq1220

This app can connect sounds from real Kalimba so you can play the tabs from your own Kalimba. That’s the killer feature. No more searching the internet for tabs. They all here. I upgraded to no ad version. Worth it

High potential

This app is nice however there are just a few things that would make this app a 5-star app. 1. Allow the tabs to be able to be practiced in a loop. So I don’t have to keep hitting play. 2. If I make a long tab or load a tab, allow me to be able to define the section that I need to repeat and maybe allow me to type the amount of times I wish to repeat that section. 3. Please let me turn off the menu sounds. That sound is so loud and I don’t like to hear it for every single button that I press. Onto the features that I absolutely love ❤️: I love how I can make my own tabs. I also love the fact I can switch between standard tab mode and regular sheet music 🎼 mode. That feature alone is amazing! I just found this app a few days ago. As I go through it, I will update this review. I will also add stars ⭐️ if these features can be added. Thank you for your time.

Gaahhhhh 😩

Ok. On one hand I see the potential to really enjoy a great resource here. HOWEVER, being brand new to this nifty little kalimba, my frustration level is off the chart because I am trying to follow along BUT ITS STILL SCROLLING TOO FAST EVEN AT 0.5!!!!!!! any chance you can have a setting for us less-than-dexterous few who are trying their darndest to hit the right tines? Once I learn where they located, THEN I can increase my autoscroll! Please?! I’m almost in tears here ... please?? 😢

Works

Works like advertised the vip version isn’t necessary but the ads do get annoying so ehh but it detects the correct notes when playing the songs

Buzzes

Terrible. Each tine buzzes incessantly. Audio static making impossible to use.
