fascinating and entertaining
love this game, i find etymology and word origins so interesting and there's so many fascinating origin stories that i didn't know about at all! i've learned a lot playing this and the price for more cards is pretty reasonable. definitely recommend!
Not for the truly educated
The third card I encountered was “limelight.” The game cheerfully informed me that this came from the process of “burning“ lime or calcium oxide. Lime is already rather thoroughly burnt, as a high school education in chemistry will inform one. When lime is heated intensely, it will undergo two different kinds of luminescence, emitting light, but not “burning.”

Nice app
Fun, educational, and entertaining. Caution don’t use when you have other things to do as it can be …”just one more” and same for restricting children's use times
Paid for extra cards and didn’t get them
I paid for 300 cards. I started playing then noticed ads kept popping up. Thought this was strange, since I paid over $7. Then U got a message to buy cards! If this problem is fixed, I will change the star rating. Not pleased with the app at this point.
Great App!
Orijinz is a terrific opportunity for learning and fun! As a bonafide member of really old people, Orinjinz its a such a good way to improve memory. I’ve always loved words and am an avid reader and these phrases and words are presented in such interesting ways. When I first started using Orijinz, there was a tiny glitch. I contacted Brad at Orijinz and he got back to me very quickly (within the hour) and fixed the problem. I highly recommend this program and the service that comes with it!

A fantastic, intellectual game
This is a game that asks you to come up with a phrase or word but hearing its origin. First one to guess it, wins. It tests your intellect, is interesting, and super fun. Can be played as a drinking game or with the family. Glad to see the game on the phone now!
