  • Poor customer service

    I just want to say that for as long as I’ve played this game it’s always been fun. Recently the game glitched on me after an ad and removed a box from my slot spaces leaving a space empty without my opening any boxes. Customer service was no help. The response was dismissive and condescending and the problem is with the game not retaining my won box. Service desk basically replied saying my slots were full as though that’s what my complaint addressed. The entire problem is that I began a game with one free slot, won a game which filled my slots, and then played an ad that glitched out the game and left me with a free slot where my last win had appeared. Instead of checking completely to figure out HOW that would occur, the service team blamed the customer. The glitch was annoying, but the team who responds to players was just so wrong here. They were unhelpful and incorrect. The response was WAY worse than what happened during the game.

  • Addictive

    This game is very fun. It was a little confusing at first to learn how to accrue and use lifelines. They are different from the television game. There are experts you can ask for help, but they aren’t always helpful. You need to upgrade them before they are of much help. There are also lots of commercials, and you need to buy expensive gems to advance very far. It would be nice to get to save your progress at more points along the ladder, but you can only save if you don’t take a guess. If you guess wrong, you fall way down the ladder to wherever you beat your opponent. If you don’t beat your opponent, you can’t quit and save where you are. I still haven’t figured out how to earn the last expert in each level.

    There are lots of bonus games and ways to earn gems, so that is a plus.

    Overall is a fun game.

  • It’s a fun game but ends up costing too much

    I like this game but in order to continue to enjoy it you have to keep purchasing gems. You have to play often as well. You get put in lower level if you don’t have opportunity to play as often as before. Each level requires more time playing the game. I don’t like that it encourages gambling and buying more gems, or using all your gems up for a gambling game that you end up empty handed. They also give the impression with advertising during the game that special deals you can purchase epic cards with 4X-10x upgraded. This is false nonsense advertising. You still have to keep playing after paying for the upgrade to get the upgrade. There’s a few annoyances with this game and few discrepancies. Sometimes the answers to their questions are inaccurate or misspelled names. I enjoy playing but this game needs some improvements.

  • Shameless Cash Grab

    This app is beyond frustrating. You're forced to sit through an ad after every single match. I'm fine with free to play apps selling things that let you progress faster, but not things that give paying players an unfair advantage (this app is the latter). The 1v1 style would be interesting, but players who spend money have a huge advantage. It's essentially impossible to unlock the better experts without paying real money, and those experts basically just give you the answer when you use the "Ask an Expert" lifeline (and there are no limits to the number of lifelines you can use, so paying players have way more of them and can use them to get the answer to almost any question they don't know).
    I don't know who comes up with the questions, but it's clear they have a very strong pro-Christian bias. About every 30th question is an extremely obscure question about Christian theology (I went to church and Sunday school until I was 18 and still don't know the answers to hardly any of these). Yet in all my time playing, I have come across 0 questions about Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, or any other modern religions.
    This could be a great trivia app if it didn't have ads or give paying players a hugely unfair advantage. If you're looking for a trivia app that won't drive you insane, look elsewhere.

  • TRUE MENTAL CHALLENGE

    Let me begin by saying this is not a perfect game. On occasion the answer is wrong. Sometimes the questions are poorly phrased, missing words or misspelled. On occasion it has frozen up and not given me what I earned but the negatives are outweighed by the positives. First and foremost, it can be a free game. It has been for me. Close second is the fact that you are in control of your success or failure. The answers are factual not a computer generated spin. Close third and why I like this game is because it sharpens my memory and teaches me things I don’t know. SOME PLAYING TIPS: The game wants the “best” answer, not a perfect answer. This is an English language version so expect expressions and questions about all English speaking countries. if you are going to guess, go with your first choice. Your gut feeling is often due to information you absorbed at one time. Pay attention to the answer when you are wrong. This is how you learn and the questions will eventually repeat themselves if you play long enough.

  • Good game but changes hurt...

    Entertaining game, leans a little too much to British history/culture imo but fun to play. In particular I love the concept of collecting Epic experts....they come rarely and you need to win a lot of gold boxes to get one, which makes the challenge fun and rewarding. But they changed an algorithm so now when you get an Epic Card it is almost exclusively an extra life card ....which shouldn’t even exist in the boxes. They are barely useful and you can earn them by going deep in the events (a fine enough reward for devoted gameplay). But every time you get one in a gold box it means the odds are you have to wait a very long time to get another epic expert, and 5 of the last 6 epic cards I’ve gotten are these extra life cards. Please fix this and stop messing with your loyal fan base

  • Please End Demotions!

    I thoroughly enjoy playing this game. I’ve only recently started actively trying to climb higher in the standings and levels. This takes a commitment of time and money. I’ve given both. I did not know all the rules. So, after working very hard to get to my next level, I was shocked to be demoted shortly thereafter, apparently for not maintaining a certain standing. This made me upset and angry, to the point that I almost quit playing. And when I look at the totals of those rated in the top 10, I wonder, do these people play 24 hours a day? Do they spend exorbitant amounts of money? Do they cheat? I am not willing to do any of those things. So, PLEASE, leave my level alone, since I worked hard to achieve that but will likely not be able to maintain my position. I realize that in the grand scheme of life, this is just a meaningless game. I play because it’s fun and keeps my brain active, especially during this quarantine craziness. I ask that you appreciate the effort players put in and respect that, by eliminating demotions. If not, I will take my money and effort elsewhere.

  • Great fun, but frustrating for non-Europeans

    Update: I see what others are saying about this game being rigged as are most game apps that have in-app purchases. Once you are out of lifelines and especially low on diamonds (which are needed to unlock the boxes you win that are full of goodies such as coins and lifelines) you will get many “oddball” questions. These are usually questions people in a specific profession or hobby would know, but most other people would not. You will keep losing coins and become stuck to wait many hours for one box to unlock or buy diamonds and coins.

    I have played this for about a month now and although it is fun and challenging, I would say about two-thirds of the questions are written by individuals from the UK or other parts of Europe. This gets especially frustrating when old sayings are brought up or slang terms are asked for. The lions share of sports questions are about soccer so be careful when answering questions about football - most of the time it is not American football. Is there an American version of this?

  • Addictive

    There is plenty to love about this game. Many different elements to keep you playing and the questions are varied enough to keep you challenged. BUT for users in the USA be aware that this is a British version. Unless you are an Anglophile, the many UK pop culture and sport questions will end your sessions quickly. After playing for months the biggest disappointment is that once you reach a level - silver, gold, etc. unless you spend a lot of money and/or play for hours a day you do not get to stay at the level you’ve achieved. Also there is so little you can do with accumulated coins. At this point I have almost 53 million coins. Most aspects of the game require “gems” and I can’t buy gems with “coins “ ( unless they are the US tinder variety!). As far as I can tell the only thing you can buy with coins is upgrades to experts and even that is very limited. VERY demotivating as winning gets you nowhere. It pains me that the fun is gone, time to delete the game.

  • Not perfect but as good as you can expect

    Let me start with the fact that I hate the whole pay to play and pay to win schemes. Since all the best mobile games are set up this way now it’s unavoidable however I never spend money to buy I game items. I’ll pay to remove ads if I like the game enough.

    If you like the TV show you’ll like this game no doubt about it. I took one star off for the couple things I would change.

    Why do I have to wait 3 or 8 hours to open a box once I’ve won it? I won it why don’t I get to open it right then and there other than they want to try to get me to pay to open it? And why can I only keep 4 unopened boxes?

    My only other complaint is during the actual Millionaire game the only fall back spot is when you beat your opponent and win the bronze box meaning that’s the minimum you would walk away with if you get a question wrong after that point. When you wen the Silver box that should lock that point as a minimum if you get a successive question wrong. The original show had 2 or 3 tiers that you’d be lock in if you made it that far.

    One minor issue I had was when my expert William Shakespeare did not know the answer to a William Shakespeare question!! What is up with that? lol
