Horrible

Downloaded and asked to join random game, never went anywhere so couldnt pmay.

Response from developer

Hello! We apologize for your difficulties using “Random Play" on our APP. We created “Random Play” so that players who could not get 3 friends together could play immediately with others in the same situation. At the moment, the amount of traffic coming to the app sometimes means that there are not enough players for all random players to get into a game. Please try again in the future as our downloads are building everyday. We expect that later this year there will be enough traffic to have everyone playing whenever they want. You can still create your own game and invite from 3 to 12 friends at any time. If you have any ideas that could take the game to the next level, please share with us at support@thegameofthings.com. We appreciate your feedback and hope our game makes you laugh!

Awful!

Game doesn’t work at all, everyone joins and then it won’t get off the round 1 screen. So disappointed as we have the board game and wanted to play virtually during lockdown :(

What’s the point...

Why have a local play option if everyone has to have the app on their own device to play anyway? Needs a “share one device” mode.

Response from developer

Hello! We think this is a fantastic idea and will keep it mind when developing future updates. If you have any ideas that could take the game to the next level, please share with us at support@thegameofthings.com. We appreciate your feedback and hope our game gives you a laugh!

I can’t invite others. I’m deleting it.

No way to invite my family to play.

Response from developer

We are so sorry you are having difficulty inviting people to our APP. Here are the steps: 1. On the home screen choose the “CREATE” button instead of the “JOIN” button. 2. The next screen will ask you to choose a GAME MODE depending on whether you are in the same room or different locations. 3. Next you will choose which deck of topics you will use. 4. Next you will enter your name and choose an avatar. Once you have done that you will be presented with a game code that you will send to whomever you want to play with. You can send it by e-mail, text, phone call, social media or however you like to communicate with your group. All players will either download the APP to their mobile device or use their computer and go to www.playthings.io”. On the Home Screen they choose “JOIN” instead of “CREATE”. They will then be presented with a keypad where they can enter the code that you sent them. Hit the check mark and they are in the game. Once they enter their name and choose an avatar you will see them pop-up. You are now ready to have a good laugh. You won’t believe the THINGS... you’ll hear! I hope this helps with your inquiry. Please check our FAQ page for any other questions and feel free to contact us at any time at “support@thegameofthings.com”.

It is way fun to talk to people and socalize when playing.

Can’t play

First the game automatically assumes you want to play with friends, then have to go backwards and choose “create” instead of “join” to actually join a world game then just loads and loads and my phone is charged 98% so it’s not your low power mode issue. Seemed dope but can’t play smh.
