  • Love it but wish there weren’t bugs

    I love this game and the many different ways to play, but sometimes it seems they have a problem with their server or something and nothing will load properly. For awhile I thought it was my internet or phone but after closing the app and reopening and trying other things on my phone and all of them working properly, I realize it is this particular app. Maybe they have a frequent server overload or something but it is a little annoying to not be able to play during certain times.

  • Good game

    Only annoyance is too many clicks to start a game.
  • Great game but some bugs

    I love this game & it's very addictive but there are a few bugs that make it annoying. Firstly I keep getting a message when I open it that I have an account conflict & that I have 2 accounts. I have only ever had the 1 player account. Secondly, when I went to play one of the competitions- Party Yellow, I was sitting on over 1000 points when I closed it the night before but then when I went back the next day, all my points were gone & I was back down the bottom of the ladder which was frustrating because I was close to achieving a frame.
    Plus my progress isn't saved in the VIP levels & when there is a new VIP game, I go right back to the start of the progress bar even though I may have won 3 previous VIP games.

  • Terrible ads and coin system!

    I stupidly paid $2.99 to get out of watching an ad after every game, which was incredibly annoying. What I didn’t realize at the time, was the stupid coin system to even play the game. Each game costs coins and you only get coins by winning, watching ads or paying. So if you’re not winning every single game you will eventually run out of coins and be forced to either pay for more or watch ads for more. I know I should have done more research before paying the $2.99 but I still feel ripped off. I’ve now paid to play a game without being forced to watch ads that I will eventually not be able to play without being forced to watch ads or pay more money.

    Enjoy my $2.99, Magmic. Because the second I run out of coins, I’m deleting this app. I will not be spending another cent on coins and you will not be getting any ad revenue from me.

  • Could be better

    Ridiculous amount of adds. A few less and I will give it 5!
  • I want to enjoy this but too many problems

    I love Scattergories and I really enjoy the game but this app continuously gives me problems. Once it claimed I’d spelled something wrong, showing an incorrect spelling in the dispute page - when my screenshot of my answer showed that I had spelled it correctly. Two other times the disputed page did not let me submit my answer for review when it didn’t accept my perfectly good answer. I don’t mind submitting for review but the page hasn’t worked for me yet. And lastly, for a few days now every time I earn coins they disappear as soon as I log in! It’s getting quite frustrating and ruining my overall experience.

  • Very Glitchy

    The premise of the game is fantastic. I just made it into the higher levels where more game styles are available, and it is really sucking me in. I’m really enjoying the challenge of thinking quickly.

    The game is incredibly glitchy at present. The game always crashes, without fail, at the end of the Final Fantasy ad. It also crashes at the end of some other ads, but with less frequency. Lastly, it seems to crash most often during tournament play, which is unfortunate because you lose your buy-in coins.

    If the developers continue to update the glitches, they might have a lifer in me. Otherwise, this will be another one of those games I play for a week and uninstall out of poor developing & frustration.

  • Don’t. Just don’t.

    I am a huge fan of the board game Scattergories. I’ve played it since I was a kid. This version, however, is terrible. Where do I start? The keyboard is glitchy and doesn’t work properly. I’ve submitted answers only to see that they’ve been changed after the game is over. When a game is finished, you are able to view your answers and your competitor’s answers. Many times, I have found that the words I type in are different than what the game recorded. Also, answers that are valid have not counted. Example: Category-fictional character. letter N. I answered Nella, the Princess Knight, which is an animated show on Nick Jr. my answer was not counted. This has happened countless times and I have disputed them all. Also, if there is a tie score, your opponent automatically wins. This makes no sense. Finally, I paid to remove ads, yet you are still required to view an ad for the bonus round of a match. Very shady. I understand viewing an ad for extra coins, but to play a bonus round in a match? Come on.

    Don’t waste your time or money.

  • Stop the ads

    Fun game, but I tried to buy to stop the ads... it keeps saying my purchase has gone through but then it doesn’t seem to work.

  • Disappointed

    This has a lot of potential, but falls short of being any fun at all. The way the game is scored, your answers can be "disputed". If that happens, you do not gain any points for that answer. I don't know how they decided what to dispute, but it disputes things that are completely accurate. Example, the category was "Cities" and I typed the name of the place where I live. It disputed it and counted it wrong, and I have no idea how that's possible. The city most definitely exists, and I spelled it correctly. It did this a few times within my first time playing it. What's the point of playing if the app can't differentiate between a correct answer and an incorrect one? It's not any fun if it feels rigged and you can't win. I would have happily paid for the commercial free version, if this game were fair and fun. Unfortunately it was a huge disappointment. Oh well, onto the next game!
