### 3/5 — Fun Game

*2026-08-15, version 9.1.1*

It’s a fun game. It’s a little annoying though when you don’t get an award after you stump the Akinator. And it’s annoying when you get a message that you already “received an award” for someone you never ran through. Not sure why.

### 5/5 — Wonderful

*2026-07-27, version 9.1.0*

Now my favorite game

### 2/5 — Not worth it

*2026-07-21, version 9.1.0*

Akinator as a game is fine but the only benefit of this VIP version is there are no ads on install. Just buy no ads on the free version.

### 1/5 — scam

*2026-07-19, version 9.1.0*

just get the free version

### 1/5 — Не работает

*2026-07-16*

### 5/5 — It’s a really really good

*2026-07-16, version 9.1.0*

There’s no ad in it, but if you want ads, just get regular Akinator, it might seem frustrating to pay for it. In other people opinion but for me, it’s worth it.

### 5/5 — W game

*2026-07-04, version 9.0.7*

It’s just way to good try iit

### 1/5 — Ruined by online safety act

*2026-05-25, version 9.0.6*

Was a great fun App but now it wouldn’t even guess a character that appears in some episodes of the most popular sitcom ever (Ursula from Friends) because of “App Store guidelines” if that character is blocked then I can only assume it will be harder to find a character it will dare to actually tell you the name of!!

### 5/5 — Gagged

*2026-04-09, version 9.0.3*

Good game

### 2/5 — Не работает

*2026-04-07*

Почему-то вечная загрузка
