### 4/5 — Easy history

*2026-08-06, version 1.9.1*

Love the game filled with history. I just wish that it Would give more information on the questions once you answered them.

### 4/5 — Love this game, except for one problem.

*2026-05-31, version 1.9.1*

I enjoy this game for the weekly challenges that happen, which are Bag Panic and Team Race. When the latest Bag Panic happened, I was supposed to be getting my rewards for finishing second and third, but for some reason, I never got them when I knew there were 13 minutes left in the challenge. This isn’t the first time this has happened, it has happened a whole number of times throughout the early months of this year. I want to reach out to Qiiwi for a redemption code (Which I have done for a Team Race event that I have also been doing well in a while back, but didn’t get my rewards until I brought it up with Qiiwi), I don’t want to do it every time if that’s all it takes to get my rewards. I’m begging and pleading for the developers to fix their in-game reward system. I’ve been playing this game for a whole year, and these challenges have brought an extra dimension to the gameplay.

### 4/5 — Easy history

*2026-05-12, version 1.8.8*

Love the game filled with history. I just wish that it Would give more information on the questions once you answered them.

### 2/5 — Slow decline

*2026-05-09, version 1.8.7*

This game started off great but like many, after awhile the decline in the content and support had been on a slow decline. New content is not added on a timely manner and when it is, it is very sloppy and not thorough. I have paid for purchases and the support to fix it is unacceptable. Time for me to find a new game.

### 5/5 — Super!

Man lernt die Welt kennen und das auch noch spielerisch

Love the game filled with history. I just wish that it Would give more information on the questions once you answered them.

### 5/5 — Enjoyable and educational

*2026-03-26, version 1.8.3*

It took me a little while to get into this game as there’s a lot going on, but now I’m with it I think it’s great.  I love learning all the facts about the different countries and I don’t feel as though I’m completely wasting my time playing a game.

### 5/5 — Rachel

*2026-03-26, version 1.8.3*

Brilliant gameplay

### 5/5 — This game is tons of fun and educational. Feels like a board game

*2026-03-26, version 1.8.3*

I’m a sucker for trivia and this game is the best. I love the graphics and learning about different places, collecting the trading cards and learning about famous monuments of each country. It really makes me want to travel more. It feels like I’m getting a world tour.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2026-03-22, version 1.8.3*

It’s fun learning new things about different countries and hearing the language.

### 5/5 — Engaging!

*2026-03-21, version 1.8.3*

Love this game Backpacker Go!❤️ It’s like taking a trip to all the wonderful countries around the world with your very own tour guide. Fun and very interesting! 😊

### 5/5 — Good Customer Service

*2026-03-13, version 1.8.3*

I play this game mostly as a general knowledge quiz and I’m sure there’s more to it than that but I only need to pass a few moments on a few occasions during the day. 
The Geography Game attracted me to the app and for some time it wouldn’t function properly on my iPad but a few interchanges with the customer service department got the bug fixed. Well done.
A few of the middle and far eastern destinations have proved a bit difficult for my Eurocentric mind but as the questions repeat giving you the chance to get them right, they only take a little time to complete and I have learned some interesting facts. 
You won’t get a qualification as a travel agent or geography teacher playing this game but you may very well have some fun.
Oh, and the ads aren’t intrusive and I haven’t spent any money.

### 5/5 — Très bon pour toute la famille

*2026-03-09*

Très bon jeu de culture générale . J’y apprends beaucoup et j’aime beaucoup . Merci

### 5/5 — Top

*2026-03-09*

Top mais par rapport à certains jeux il n’y a pas assez de récompenses !!

### 1/5 — Ärgerliche Abzocke!

*2026-03-29*

Eigentlich ein tolles, lehrreiches Spiel. Aber ohne Geld einzusetzen kommt man nur sehr schwer voran. Und gibt man dann Geld aus, geht die Abzocke erst richtig los, weil die Werbungsanzeigen jetzt gar nicht mehr funktionieren. Statt 10 Extrawürfe, gibt es jetzt nur noch 2!!! Von den 20 Würfen täglich landet man 10x auf den nutzlosen Pässen, da muss man schon wieder kaufen! Wie soll man da weiterkommen?!?

### 1/5 — backpacker

*2026-02-07, version 1.8.1*

Good game, just too many ads!

### 1/5 — Vollgestopft mit Werbung

*2025-12-18*

Eigentlich eine sehr schöne Idee, aber nach kurzer Zeit wieder gelöscht. Pausenlos soll man was kaufen, freischalten, Werbung gucken - die Fragen zu den Städten sind höchstens für Kinder geeignet- schade.

### 1/5 — So LOUD

*2025-12-10, version 1.7.7*

Hijacks the volume button and blasts out at maximum effect. No option to turn volume down.

### 1/5 — Personal data

*2025-11-26, version 1.7.7*

By far too much personal data is expected to play this game

### 1/5 — Blöde Monopoly-Variante

*2025-10-21, version 1.7.0*

mit ein paar wenigen Fragen

### 1/5 — The game isn’t fair.

*2025-08-12, version 1.5.13*

1. The question are so tough that you can’t answer them unless you keep repeating the same questions all over again. 
2. It is hard to complete albums. 
3. The rewards are so tiny that puts me off. Even if you watch ads they will give you just a few dice and a bunch of duplicate cards. 
4. You can’t trade cards. 
5. You don’t receive any rewards by upgrading your cities. 
Those questions can’t be answered by the general public. 
You can’t even look up the questions on google or using chat GPT. You need to answer long questions in less than a minute. The game is designed to get you frustrated. Do you really think I can answer those tough questions?? 
It is wild difficult!!

### 1/5 — Insomma!!!

*2025-07-15, version 1.5.7*

Carino ma troppo tempo per caricare i tiri del dado!

### 1/5 — Guardado

*2025-02-10, version 1.3.8*

He perdido parte de la partida iba más adelantada por Tokio y he vuelto al principio de El Cairo, o recupero mi partida o elimino el juego

### 1/5 — Troppa pubblicità

*2025-01-31, version 1.3.8*

Il gioco sarebbe anche carino, purtroppo è rovinato da una quantità assurda di pubblicità che lo rendono frustrante e toglie il divertimento. Ovviamente non vuoi pubblicità devi pagare settimanalmente/mensilmente e la cifra è spropositata! 👎👎

Been playing for ages. Great game and builds up you knowledge of various counties.

### 5/5 — Backpacker tm Go!

Great way to learn geography and about the world!

### 5/5 — Great game

*2026-07-11, version 1.9.1*

I’m really enjoying this. It’s fun and you learn so much about cities round the world. Having done the London questions, a city I know well, I feel the questions are good and varied and the answers are correct. Wish I could afford to get rid of the annoying ads!

### 5/5 — Great game

### 5/5 — A great mix!!

*2026-05-08, version 1.8.7*

A great combination of trivia and a board game!! It’s quite easy to collect dice to continue and dollars along the way.  I enjoy it very much and I play every day!!!

### 5/5 — Lots of fun to play!

*2026-05-03, version 1.8.7*

Lots of fun, but it can get expensive if you want to play for more than 5-10 minutes at a time!

### 5/5 — Perfekt

*2026-05-02*

Schönstes Spiel was ich bisher gespielt habe
