Runs great here on iPhone, iPhone 3g, iPod touch and iPod touch 2g. If your phone is jailbroke, probably won't work.
Everyone who has responded with crash reports have jaibroke phones. If you modified your firmware and the game doesn't work, it's out of our control.
Thx!

My other favorite game is Tap Tap Revenge. Ever since they started getting support from big name bands (NIN, Offspring, Weezer), it has really started to take off. And the best part is that they don't charge you to download the songs! Even the underground bands in the game have some good songs. It's quite challenging to play and has a very high level of polish and refinement that makes it stand out from other games in the app store. I also can't believe how fast the songs download to your phone whether you are on Wi-Fi or Edge.
My favorite is a tie between Parking Lot and Fieldrunners. Both brilliant ways to pass time.
