  • Adds, adds, adds, $$$

    The trivia in the beginning is way too easy. The rewards (if you don’t spend money to buy the piggy bank) are way to small so eventually you will run out of stars and gems and need to watch videos to continue. As you get better at the subjects yes the questions should get harder, but harder, more obscure questions and the better you do in a subject it seems to me like the less often those subjects appear on my choices. Unles I want to pay gems to roll another time or specifically pick a subject…. All about getting you to put in that credit card.

  • WRONG

    This app is sooooooo WRONG. It was good until I got to the question ‘what petrol station company has a marine creature as their logo’. The options were shells, and a couple other I can’t remember because I am so enraged. I chose a option that I have never heard of and it said the answer was wrong. The correct answer was shells which therefore implies that a shell is a living creature. That is WRONG. After I got the question wrong it said to watch and ad to keep your streak or lose your streak. Because I was in a fit of rage, I chose to loose my streak of 67 accidentally. So WRONG. Also, just a side note, the company is shell, not shells. Maybe complete high school before designing an app :). I give the app an F, like the producer of this app got in science. You might have thought science doesn’t matter but it obviously does.

  • Too much going on/ rude email for leaving review

    There’s too much going on with this game. All of if it mostly revolves around paying for the game. Also, though you have the option of silencing ads, they’re definitely not silent. As the developer pointed out, though there is an option to silence ads, that really just means turning the volume off on your phone. So make sure you remember to turn it back up when you close the app. Toggling on the option to silence is just for show, unlike other games with a functional option to silence ads. It further adds to the annoyance of playing this game.
    After I left this (now edited) comment I got a super snide email from the developer. For some odd reason it was addressed to my brother. They basically apologized for the game being too complex. As though I wasn’t smart enough to play. I said there’s way too much going on. It was super annoying. Too much trying to charge you for features. The actual trivia is as easy as could be often with typos. The developers are rude. The game is way too busy.

    Hi! We apologize that you find our game to be too busy. If you have any questions regarding gameplay, we encourage you to check out our game FAQs or send our Support Team an in-app message. We are always happy to help explain things! In regard to ads, the volume at which they play is determined by your device. It is not affected by the volume toggles in the game's menu. To change the volume at which ads play, you need to adjust the volume of media on your device. Thanks!
  • Meh

    I really wanted to like this game. It has some great aspects of it. The reason I’m leaving a 2 star review is because of how money hungry the company who makes this game seems. You obviously have people spending real life money on it, so why do you feel the need to spam ads. After you complete the 3-5 questions. Depending on the category you choose. You are then forced to watch an ad, and it’s not your normal ads that play for a few seconds, then let you skip. No you click skip, then have to close out your iTunes, or google play whichever OS your using. Then have to wait again to skip the ad again. All together you’re closing the ad 3 times, then being bombarded with “deals” to try and get you to spend more real money. You can bug VIP, but all that does is get rid of the ads. You’ll still end up spending loads of money because they use diamonds to be able to re roll, or ask an expert, or 50/50 split. These are the reasons why I’ll be deleting this game, and not recommending it to others. The desperation for people to spend money ruins the whole game experience for what otherwise would be a fantastic trivia game.

    Hi, there! We appreciate you taking the time to leave a detailed review of our game. We understand how ads are not fun to encounter, especially ones that require a couple of steps to close, but they are what allow us to support the game with new content and assistance through in-game messages. They can be disabled indefinitely by making any purchase from the in-game Store. We will be sharing your thoughts with our development team to keep in mind as they work on improvements for future updates. Let us know if you have any more questions or comments. Thank you for playing!
  • Helps with my anxiety

    I suffer with anxiety and I find this game a good distraction when I need to focus my mind on something other that my thoughts. I’m quite competitive also so it always puts a smile on my face when I get the answers right. I didn’t think I had that much general knowledge until I started playing this game, I’m slowing starting to realise I’m smarter than I think.

  • Too many ads

    Three questions, whole lot of button presses, then ads. To invasive. Good game underneath it all
  • Frustrating

    I play this every morning and found it enjoyable. However earning gems to continue a game was a pain. But now it’s worse instead of 50 gems you need 100 gems to continue if you make a mistake. This requires watching 7 videos to get enough free gems. Its obvious you are trying to force players to buy gems instead of watching videos. But those of us who don’t want to purchase gems get frustrated with the game and may quit playing all together at some point. I play as long as I have coins to pay for a game and when there gone I stop playing and wait for the next day when I get more free coins. If you want players to continue you either need the reduce the required gems back to 50 or increase the number of gems you get to watch a video.

  • Great Game! Just One Complaint…

    I love this game and I have a lot of fun with it. However, I find it very annoying that when you get one answer wrong, you’re not allowed to keep answering the rest of the questions. I would prefer to get the answer wrong and break my streak, but still be allowed to finish the quiz and answer the rest of the questions. Maybe if there was a points system instead of having to answer ALL the questions right in order to move to the next level and getting cut off after just ONE wrong answer.

    Other than that, I enjoy the game. I learn new things and also find out I knew more than I thought when I correctly guess an answer. It helps keep the mind active.

  • TEAM QUIZ UP SK9 ….CHEATERS

    Get to Masters league …then meet this team. They bring in a “ringer” to play the multiplier to artificially inflate their score (who plays the multiplier TWENTY consecutive times so stands at over 35) this “player” then hops off in his bat car and they feign innocence. They no doubt also use the other Hacks to increase their coins and replay the game ..but the multiplier cheat is frankly the worst
    Don’t waste your money on this game. Not an even playing field. The players in this team should be embarrassed by their behaviour…but I found most of them are too full of themselves

  • Addictive but does crash

    Great and addictive but it does crash / use your coins and leave you unable to play… if it crashes and you’ve just paid 100 coins to play you’ve lost your coins.. i just went to answer question of day and it told me I was short of gems - I accidentally clicked on watch for free gems and when the video had finished it had run out of time to answer question?!? The ads sometimes freeze and you have to close app (and again loose coins) to play again.
    Struggle to actually get a build up of coins to play.. you get your spend replaced most of the time.. and to get more you have to watch 7 videos to have 105 coins..
