  • format is messed up

    My family and i love this app and even spent money on buying the digital books. We thought it would be good for the environment to not recycle so much paper. But the format on the books is almost unreadable now. It displays each word that you enter as pale grey type on a separate line from the rest of the story. Reading it is difficult and the choppy flow makes it less funny in the end. There hasn’t been a fix for almost 5 years. We are so sad! And a little annoyed that we spent money on the app.

  • Unreadable And Unusable

    I have screenshots from 2013 showing readable Madlibs with black text in a white background and red text for the user-provided words. This version is completely unreadable, the text is almost the same color as the background and there’s no contrast. Why downgrade the app like this? Why discriminate against people with vision disabilities? Madlibs is one of my favorite games but the last update they did around 2019 completely trashed the app and made it worthless. How can you enjoy a Madlib you can’t even read? Why add like 2 extra steps to export the Madlib as a picture? What a shame that they destroyed a perfectly good app and don’t even seem to be around anymore to fix it.

  • 𝖣𝖾𝗍𝖾𝗋𝗂𝗈𝗋𝖺𝗍𝗂𝗇𝗀 𝖺𝗉𝗉 (ಡ‸ಡ)

    This game has not been updated in four years. You would think this would not be a problem, but somehow the app is falling apart.

    The font that they show the stories in, in the preview; the format that is supposed to remind you of the book version? It won't even load; it's just boring old Times or something. The other reviews say this, but each word you put in now gets placed on a new line. It isn't by any means a fatal flaw, but it makes me a feel a bit uninspired. Also, every time you open the app (even when you just reopen the window), it opens the Game Center screen thingy, and you have to click out of it. It's very annoying. Not to mention that the app crashes frequently, sometimes as soon as you're about to read your story!

    This has nothing to do with this game being in dire need of an update, but some of the free stories are just...𝒷𝓁𝒶𝒽. While most of them are indeed fun to read, many of them are only funny if you meticulously choose the silliest words and also make up a few elmo-y new ones. And some of them just aren't funny, no matter what heavyset earthworms you use. (Essentially, the free stories just advertise the paid books. If you're not planning to spend money on the app, either make the most of the free stories or don't get the app at all.)

  • Only two books😢

    There’s only two books!!!! The rest you have to pay for and I’m a kid and can’t buy them can you make in game currency that you earn and you could buy certain books you choose to be in game currency and books with real money and maybe even something like a mad libs festival where you can earn books around holidays for free and earn even more if you buy something like maybe a mad libs medal or something and you get that when you pay real money and then in festivals you get better stuff then the other people who don’t have it please please do this because I really want more books.🥺

  • Good game, but major bug

    This game is very fun to play, but there’s one huge bug: the math problem screen you are supposed to see when you hit “Restore Purchases” can barely be seen, making it impossible to know what the math problem is. Please fix this as soon as possible. Thank you.
  • The game was fun and very educational

    Needs more free stories. Waaayyyy more stories. Like 10-12 more. I told my friends about this game and they were so excited. But then I told them they only had 2 stories and nobody wanted to play with me. I cried all night playing mad libs alone on my 17th birthday party. It was a educational birthday. I know I spelled an wrong but that was on purpose. That year for my birthday wish I wish there were at least 10-12 more books in the mad lib game.
    ❤️❤️❤️
    ps please please please please please please please please please please pleeeeaase please please add more books

  • The good, the bad, and the itchy; a childhood game brought back to life

    Bored on a Sunday, a friend and I indulged in one of our greatest childhood cravings. Our findings were amusing, although at times tedious due to the lack of development. The stories are classical and hilarious however, I found the clunky nature of the app to be inhibiting my overall enjoyment. I’d love to see better formatting, and perhaps read aloud options. The app is enjoyable but it needs work.

  • Needs more

    I love the app! But it needs a lot more books than you give us!🤨
    You give us two free books and thats it more people would get this ha if it had more books when I tell my friends about this game they are excited 😆 about it! And they think about getting it. But when I say how many books there are that are free they say never mind😶😢. So I think you need to add like 10 to 12 free books!! A lot more people would get this game and I know because they have said so and so have my friends so consider it not just for them I would love it too! And I’ve read some of the other reviews and a lot of people would agree too! Because the reason we got this game is because we don’t want to haft to buy actual books we can play anytime anywhere and with anybody! And it’s no different if we are buying books on this too!😢 we mine as well but real books😢 I love the idea that this app is kid friendly and fun and goofy it’s a wonderful idea but it would be a thousand times better if you would make like 10 to 12 more books free! You are one of the only mad libs of your kind on an App Store so please! I love your app but I am almost done and then once it’s over there is not much to do

    Thank you so much for making this app but please please please please make more free

    Love Harts ❤️❤️❤️!

    Ps I know I spelled hearts wrong but I did it purposely.

  • Expensive books for a poor designed app

    The content of the books are great and well worth the cost. However, the app itself is not. They always use dark font on dark background. I’m not a graphic designer at all but even I know to never use blue font on dark blue background. Their string concatenations are done with a new line instead of inline. The app crashes all the time. And my favorite is that every time you open the app, it opens up the Game Center page. Even Apple removed it as a forward facing feature and instead moved it to a background feature. Game Center should not be the splash screen every time you open the app. Literally no other app does this and for a good reason. It’s annoying and pointless. It is apparent this app has been abandoned by the developers/company as the last update was 3 years ago.

  • Please update

    As it hasn’t been updated in years, the formatting of the stories is a bit messed up, lately. It’d be nice if it were fixed for the latest versions of iOS and iPadOS. It’s still legible, but not easily. I use this sometimes in my English classes for my students, and they really enjoy it.
