### 1/5 — This is awful

*2021-03-03, version 3.9*

I hate it my family never knows what any of the questions are and 
Most of themes cost money I hate it

### 1/5 — Money money

*2020-03-13, version 3.9*

This is the worst games ever it just ruined everything every thing it’s just money no fun I had this game

### 5/5 — Great

*2019-12-15*

I like it

### 1/5 — Add blocks play

*2018-02-04, version 3.9*

Bad app. Ads block game play.

### 1/5 — The ads

*2017-12-22, version 3.9*

I got and as that covered up the words while I was playing. I was in for a cool free version of heads up. But you have to pay for the categories. The ads cover the words. And in all, I think it is awful.

### 1/5 — The worst game ever

*2016-10-08, version 3.6*

Badbadbadreallybad!!!!!!!!!!!!This game is the worst game ever everything is with money what's the propose of making this game free

### 3/5 — Stupid adds

*2016-06-10, version 3.6*

Charades, is another version of heads up, created by Ellen Degreens.
The game is fun, but way overpriced, and the adds show up every time I want to do something. If you don't pay two or three dollars, you have barley any option to do any catogories.

### 3/5 — OK

*2015-08-30, version 3.1*

This game is really OK but it could really use some differences like every game should be free and you shouldn't have to buy it from the app store. And also there should be more games for children. I did also like to ask this question why is it called real charades if it's on an electronic device?

### 5/5 — Truly the best

*2015-07-26, version 3.1*

The best charades game, I’m so glad you don't have to put the phone on your head.

### 5/5 — Great Game

*2015-07-20, version 3.0*

I just wish that you didn't have to buy categories because it's like any other game where you get the app and it gives you the worst categories it's still fun to act things out though just my opinion!!
