### 1/5 — Inaccurate AI

*2026-03-31*

After saying the animal was a mammal, it said it didn’t have four legs, or two legs. I asked if it mainly lived in the mountains or forest (2 separate questions) and it said “depends” on both. I then asked if it was nomadic and it said “depends” again.

It either is nomadic or it isn’t.

**Developer response:** Hi there! You were right to be frustrated! That version of the AI was definitely confused. We've completely overhauled its logic in the new update to be way more consistent. Try one more game; we’d love to earn those extra stars if you like the fix!

### 1/5 — False Information

*2025-09-13*

False information- stated that a manatee was a fish

**Developer response:** Hi there, thank you for the review, and you are 100% correct! A manatee is definitely a marine mammal, not a fish! I completely understand how frustrating it is to get bad facts in a guessing game, and I apologize for the AI hallucinating that answer. I’ve just released a massive update that completely overhauls the AI logic and knowledge base to be much smarter and more factually accurate so mistakes like the 'fishy' manatee don't happen. I'd love for you to give the new version a try, and if you find the game is working much better, I'd be incredibly grateful if you'd consider updating your rating!

### 1/5 — A bit broken

*2025-07-29*

It told me it was living and then said it wasn’t alive after I asked if it was human, animal, plant, or ai. I asked if it was a computer and it said I was on the right track but to be more specific. Then I asked if it was a laptop and I ended up losing because it had picked the word “python”. I think the game is a bit broke.

**Developer response:** Hi there, thank you for the feedback! I completely agree, saying something is 'living', then 'not alive', hinting at a 'computer', and ending on 'python' is a total mess! The AI definitely got confused between the animal and the programming language, and we apologize for the broken experience. We’ve recently released a massive update that completely overhauls the AI logic and memory so it doesn't contradict itself or give wild hallucinations like that anymore. We'd love for you to give the new version a try, and if the AI is making sense and playing fairly now, we would be incredibly grateful if you'd consider updating your rating. Thanks for playing!

### 1/5 — Whats a civet

*2025-07-07*

I played and it said it was a household pet and that it was a omnivore then it said i failed to guess a civet which is a carnivore and nobody has a civet as a pet

**Developer response:** Hi, thanks for the review! I totally understand the frustration, the AI categorizing a civet as a household pet is a massive mix-up! The good news is I've just released a major update that completely overhauls the AI logic to fix these exact factual errors and weird categorizations. Please give the newest version a spin! If you find the game is playing accurately and fairly now, it would mean a lot to us if you'd consider updating your review. Cheers!

### 1/5 — Hard

*2025-07-06*

When u play against ai it’s unfair I had to guess odometer and I have no clue what that is so it needs to have levels bad app don’t get it and it also doesn’t give exact answers it said for odometer that it was used everyday and u would bring it to shopping like what?!

**Developer response:** Hi, thanks for the review! I totally understand the frustration, the AI definitely got confused giving clues about an 'odometer', and I agree that getting super hard words without levels isn't fun. The good news is we've just released a significant update that completely overhauls the AI logic to fix those weird answers and make the overall game much fairer. Please give the newest version a spin! If the game plays better for you, it would mean a lot to us if you'd consider updating your review. Cheers!

### 1/5 — Not Accurate

*2025-06-15*

The game isn’t accurate when asking the question. For example, I asked was it in the home and it answered yes. I asked was it located in the living room, it answered no; kitchen, no and bedroom no. The answer ended up being a stapler. I know for a fact that not all homes have an “office” but we all have kitchen drawers and the majority of us have a “junk drawer”, which would be in the kitchen. We all have a kitchen, living room and bedroom at a minimum. We don’t all have an in home office, garage or storage room. This was just one example. Every game I played was similar.

**Developer response:** Hi again! I wanted to drop a quick update to say you were totally right about the 'junk drawer'. The AI was being way too strict about the stapler! The good news is We've just released a significant update that completely overhauls the AI logic to fix those exact overly-rigid answers and make the game much more realistic. Please give the newest version a spin! If you find it plays much fairer now, it would mean a lot to is if you'd consider updating your review. Cheers!

### 3/5 — Good game but I'm confused.

*2025-10-09*

I'm confused how you actually full on answer the question, I had one right, the answer was squash as in the vegetable but it didn't take it as a answer, I'm also unsure how you ask it for a hint.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the helpful feedback! I apologize for the confusion with submitting answers and finding the hints; it is definitely frustrating to be right about 'squash' and not get credit. We have recently released a significant update that completely overhauls the AI grading logic to ensure correct guesses are properly accepted, alongside UI improvements for features like hints. I hope you'll check out the latest update, and if you enjoy the improvements, an updated rating would mean the world to us!

### 3/5 — Too specific

*2025-06-28*

I said drum and the answer was drum set.

**Developer response:** Hi, thanks for the review! I totally agree that 'drum' should have been accepted for 'drum set'. we apologize about the previous AI version being overly strict there! The good news is we've just released a major update that completely overhauls the AI logic, making it much smarter at accepting close guesses. Please give the newest version a spin! If you find it plays much fairer now, it would mean the world to us if you'd consider updating your review. Cheers!

### 4/5 — Needs improvement in the accessibility department.

*2026-05-14*

As a Voiceover user, I find this game to be pretty accessible; however, there's one thing that needs to be improved in the AI mode. Right now, as it stands, when I've asked my question and hit the Send button, after I feel the vibration indicating that the AI has responded, I have to literally swipe left through ALL my questions until I find the one I just asked; then I can hear Voiceover tell me my response. I wish that, after I hit the Send button to submit my question, Voiceover would IMMEDIATELY tell me the response. It's OK if I scroll through all my questions to review them, but I want the AI response IMMEDIATELY spoken to me by Voiceover after I've hit the Send button. Please fix that!

### 5/5 — Good way to play 20 Questions

Hi

**Developer response:** Hi right back! 👋 Thank you so much for the awesome 5-star rating; it really means the world to us! We just wanted to let you know that we have recently released a massive update that completely overhauls the AI logic and makes the game run even smoother. I hope you enjoy the new version, and thanks again for playing!

### 5/5 — Majestic game

*2025-07-06*

Wonderful game which makes me feel very smart. This doesn’t happen often since I’m a builder

### 5/5 — “Ai messed up”

*2025-06-09*

This is just my kibosh for a faulty round with the Ai. 

“is it Non living?”
“yes”

“is it an inanimate object”
“yes”

“is it a solid?”
“no”

“is it a gas?”
“no”

“is it a liquid?”
“no”


me: “…”

Rest of the questions i asked consisted of babble because i wanted to see the answer:

“You lost to Ai. The answer was: Scissors”

**Developer response:** Hi Sam, Apologies for the bad experience with the AI Single Player mode.

We understand that its answer to "is it a solid" being "no" for the non living object "scissors" was incorrect. 

The AI is designed to be consistent and logical, but this classification error broke down the question flow for your game. 

We’re actively improving the AI to better handle edge cases like this. Thanks for helping us make the experience better for everyone — we’ve taken your feedback on board, and we’ll make sure it gets smarter (and fairer!) moving forward.
