### 2/5 — Doesn’t even work right

*2023-07-05, version 1.1.18*

The answers would be to a completely different one, and the “questions” don’t even have a question to ask. It’s just statements

### 4/5 — Too repetitive

*2021-03-21, version 1.1.15*

The puzzles get repetitive

### 3/5 — 🤣

*2020-12-09, version 1.1.14*

LOL this game is hilarious, just don’t expect to get any of the answers right, they’re just flat out ridiculous. Sometimes don’t make sense but that’s the hilarious part in a few questions.

### 2/5 — Poor

*2020-10-28, version 1.1.14*

Terrible interface, loads of adverts, and very hoary old riddles you’ve heard a million times before.

### 4/5 — Tony

*2020-06-15, version 1.1.14*

It’s pretty good to get u thinking

### 2/5 — I’ve gotta be honest

*2020-05-17, version 1.1.14*

I’m so sorry but the teasers are so terrible. Most of them aren't phrased as a question and some of the answers make absolutely no sense. I otherwise like how the app is simple and there’s not 5 metric tons of advertisements. I think they could just work on getting more quality teasers and it would be okay.

### 4/5 — Review

*2020-04-18, version 1.1.14*

Interesting and thought inspiring

### 2/5 — Too hard

*2020-04-13, version 1.1.14*

Way too hard do not buy

### 3/5 — continuous ads

*2020-02-24, version 1.1.14*

it’s ad after ad , that’s so irritating.

### 1/5 — Sad...

*2020-01-17, version 1.1.14*

The app works fine.  The trivia is terrible!  They don’t usually end the riddle with any sort of question.  It may be implied from the information, but not explained.  They sound something like this, “A man is dead in a room.  A small pile of wood chips and sawdust are in the corner”.   Not really a question... then the answer was actually kind of offensive towards dwarfism and blindness.  And not even logical....

### 1/5 — Rips you off

*2024-07-30, version 1.1.18*

I purchased the “no ads” option and it immediately gave me an ad afterwards. Ads just keep coming. This is a sham. 

The game is also under-explained and poorly written. Don’t waste your time.

### 1/5 — Paid to remove ads. Ads still persistent.

*2023-02-19, version 1.1.18*

App is simple. Some questions seem to have very odd and random answers. Easy to use. Giver I paid to remove ads and I still get ads often. May return.

### 1/5 — Nice try way to confusing my child keeps complaining

*2021-07-03, version 1.1.18*

Nice try mate

### 1/5 — Über repetitive

*2021-06-02, version 1.1.18*

Don’t waste your time folks! 

The questions are pretty weak and you have to buy them 100 at a time. Google will turn up lists of brain teasers that are more fun than this app. 

It’s also worth noting that the chat conversation feature of the app where you can possibly get in-app support is completely broken. I tried to just chat with staff about this failure of an app. Instead I am leaving this review.

### 1/5 — Worst app ever😐!!!!!

*2020-08-18, version 1.1.14*

First of all I don’t even understand how this is an app😒. I downloaded it excited with a positive attitude 😛 but left disappointed 😕 if I were you I wouldn’t get this .

### 1/5 — Seriously???

*2020-07-11, version 1.1.14*

A guy is dead in a corner with some sawdust and wood chips, and we’re supposed to figure out that he’s a blind dwarf who committed suicide???  A good brain teaser gives you all of the information you need to figure out the answer, and these puzzles do not do that at all. I can’t imagine anyone guessing the one about the blind dwarf.

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2020-04-02, version 1.1.14*

I played this game for 2 minutes and saw 3 ads already.
My first ad I got was from turning off the sound.

This is a nice game I would have given it a 3 or 4 stars, but the constant ads are so infuriating it’s turns it into a 1 Star for me.

### 1/5 — Extremely annoying ads

*2020-03-13*

Ads keep coming every 10 seconds, extremely annoying and stupid way to get ppl to pay for ad free

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2020-03-12, version 1.1.14*

One of the worst apps. The questions are terrible and the answers are even worse

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2020-03-01, version 1.1.14*

After reading riddles for 5 MINUTES, every single one was a repeat. And if you say you got a question wrong, which is very easy to do because they aren’t even questions, just statements, they will show you an ad. Total waste of time and space on your phone.
