### 3/5 — Zu viele Werbung

*2026-06-10*

Ich habe das Spiel gerne gespielt , aber die Werbung ist sehr viel und nervig.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t let you play when you can

*2025-01-10*

I play quirk in a regular basis. This game does not allow you to play correctly. It blocks plays. You could make stripping you of points. There’s something wrong in the algorithm.

### 2/5 — Hard to follow

*2024-04-02, version 7.6*

Need more guides. Hard to follow and very hard to win

### 1/5 — Scoring is wrong

*2024-03-16*

This could be a very fun game but it is kind of futile playing against the computer when the scoring is incorrect. I know for certain that when I place all six of my tiles that I am not given the six extra bonus points that are supposed to be awarded. It is easy to see that this is true. However; you are never able to see how the computer opponent scores because the score is calculated so quickly and it is impossible to discern it. Often the computer opponent will have a high score, such as 70, for one move. I have never received that many points despite a strategic move. The computer let’s me win sometimes but it feels random and unsatisfying when the scoring is uncertain. If this was corrected, it would be an excellent game.

### 3/5 — Quatsch

*2023-12-26*

Spielzüge die möglich wären lässt das System nicht zu. Macht so absolut keinen Spaß. Gleich wieder gelöscht

### 1/5 — Bad design

*2023-10-02, version 7.1*

One of the most badly designed games I’ve ever seen. Impossible to see scores (on a phone) because of the placement of all the adverts.

### 3/5 — Rigged?

*2023-09-27*

Ican't help but feel the game is rigged against you.  The opponent’s tiles always seem to be more advantageous than what i'm dealt.

### 4/5 — Review

*2023-05-02*

I found this game and i’m addicted.  But, I had a hard time finding the rules for this game.  It is only by playing have I figured out how to play.

### 3/5 — Directions

*2022-06-30*

Lousy directions on how to play: placing tiles, scoring, rounds, when, where, how…. Not fun to play when it’s that confusing!

### 4/5 — Fun

*2022-06-01*

Nice twist on Quarkle. I like being able to play more tiles. Only four stars because I would like to be able to pass and play.
