I’m a long time fan of Sporcle, and the new version is so disappointing. It’s gone from being totally free without ads to letting you play one game and then get stuck on a long ad that won’t let you out of it for too long. And you can’t get the answers to the quiz until after the ad, so you’re stuck with the obnoxious ad. My husband and I used to play on trips or waiting for dinner in restaurants. Now it’s not worth it. Way to ruin it completely Sporcle. I wish you would have kept the old version open for people like me at least. This one is pretty but the ads are just too much and I’m not paying to make them go away.
The categories are harder to access now. Finding interesting quizzes is difficult too. The same dumb quizzes you don’t want keep coming up all the time. Time limits are hard to achieve on typing quizzes, which are my favorite. You can do practice quizzes but they’re not saved. They have lots of dumb and meaningless badges that are cool if you’re 12.
The information isn’t always accurate. So for people who think they can learn from the game, don’t trust it. Regular players make these quizzes. I don’t know how to report bad information so I guess it just stays out there.
Not worth the cost unless you have lots of free time and money to waste.
