### 4/5 — Clues that are wrong

*2026-09-08, version 2.1.1*

I am discovering more and more clues that are wrong; a lot of them grammatically. The latest was, “Sandra married Douglas and Melissa’s big brother.” The clue should have read, “Sandra married Douglas, Melissa’s big brother.” Please make sure the clues are correct. Overall, I love the game.

### 2/5 — Fun, but…

*2026-09-03, version 2.0.0*

Besides the repetitiveness as others mention, every single family tree has gay, lesbian, interracial and divorced people!  All of those are real world, just not in every single family tree!

### 4/5 — Un jeu super bien et super addictif

*2026-08-23, version 2.0.0*

Je passe mes journées à jouer à ce jeu je suis presque au niveau 500 c’est trop bien. Même si parfois y a des erreurs concernant les relations dans la famille mais bon j’imagine que c’est à cause de la traduction approximative en français c’est pas grave. Trop de pub après chaque partie je suis obligée de jouer hors connexion. Mais ce n’est pas grave on comprend.
Mais je mets 4étoiles parceque y a pas possibilité de sauvegarder la progression et de se connecter sur son compte avec un autre téléphone pour continuer la progression. Ce qui est très nul au cas où on change de téléphone et devoir recommencer à zéro.
Sinon je vous le suggère vraiment 😻

### 4/5 — نحتاج تكبير للخط

*2026-08-05, version 1.28.1*

ياليت يكبر الخط لإراحة العين

### 3/5 — Incomplete clues

*2026-08-04, version 1.28.1*

Am I the only one that feels like the clues and who’s filled in the tree isn’t enough to finish? If this is the case, 2 lives isn’t enough.

### 3/5 — C

*2026-08-02, version 1.28.1*

👍🏻

### 2/5 — язык

*2026-07-26, version 1.28.1*

нет русского языка ☹️

### 3/5 — Description Issue

*2026-07-25, version 1.28.1*

Some of the clues for the family members are duplicates where they refer to the same person. I.e. there will be two clues where “Christie” marries to different sibling’s brother. Without knowing which clue leads to the correct answer, the player risks exhausting the two or three chances to get the right answer. Can this issue please be fixed so that I’m not wasting coins? Thank you

### 4/5 — Upgrade of iOS - Random Crashes Resurfaces

*2026-07-25, version 1.28.1*

The latest iOS upgrade results in the app randomly crashing as it did with the previous iOS upgrade, which was resolved.

### 2/5 — Addicting but…

*2026-07-25, version 1.28.1*

First of all, there are poorly-worded and ambiguously-worded clues.  For instance, the clue might say “John married Mary and Billy’s sister” leading you to believe that John married the sister of Mary and Billy, but they actually mean that John married Mary who happens to be Billy’s sister. Or they will have 2 people left with no clues that tell you who goes where. And they absolutely do not understand how pronouns work. 

Second, the app itself destroys your battery. I lose battery like 4x faster on this app than on any other app.

### 3/5 — Repeated levels and app crashes

*2026-07-21, version 1.28.1*

I’m on level 1185 and I keep getting the same levels over and over again as I’ve gotten higher. I don’t get new levels. I feel like I just keep getting the same levels over and over again.  For the last several levels, it keeps exiting me while I’m in the app and I have to re-login and then I lose my life and have to get new lives.

### 2/5 — Çok keyifli ama…

*2026-07-19, version 1.28.1*

Oyuna neden hiç güncelleme gelmiyor?! 17. kasabadan sonra aylardır yenisi gelecek diyor ama aylar geçti?

### 3/5 — Fun game but phone overheats

*2026-07-18, version 1.28.1*

I love this game so much, it really lets me exercise logical thinking but I noticed that my phone overheats whenever I play this. I hope this gets fixed because I want to play multiple levels in one sitting.

### 3/5 — Clue errors

*2026-07-17, version 1.28.1*

Sometimes the clues are just wrong. For example if you do what they suggest, it tells you that you are wrong. I’d post a screenshot but I can’t make the review form accept it.

### 2/5 — The game is cool, but buggy

*2026-07-16, version 1.28.1*

The game is really cool!

The only thing, is it that difficult to add more unique names in puzzles? It is really annoying loosing a life because we have to guess which Jordan is the one specifies in the hint… also, people with same names are stacked up, which seems more like a bug than a feature…

### 2/5 — Infuriating clues

*2026-07-15, version 1.28.1*

Many clues are meaningless or wrong, eg x is sitting facing the fireplace when he had his back to it, or two characters have the same notebook and there aren’t two the same. With only 2 lives it’s just guesswork and waiting to try again.

### 4/5 — Though provoking

*2026-07-09, version 1.27.6*

Definitely makes you use your brain lol.

### 3/5 — Ads

*2026-07-08, version 1.27.6*

Fun game but ads are too long and take too long to get back to game play

### 3/5 — Weird family dynamics

*2026-07-07, version 1.27.6*

fun but waaaaaay too many cousins marrying cousins

### 2/5 — A lot of incorrect clues

*2026-07-06, version 1.27.6*

I’ve gotten a lot of really terribly-worded or flat-out wrong clues. Like “John is Bob’s son’s father-in-law” but then Bob only has a daughter. Or like “Bill and Margie’s sons are doctors” so you’d think it was 2 sons of both Bill and Margie but they each have sons who are doctors.

### 2/5 — Contradictory clues

*2026-06-30, version 1.27.6*

Someone really needs to check the clues on this logic game, they contradict themselves so you think you’ve worked something out but no game over

### 3/5 — Guay

*2026-06-28, version 1.27.6*

Está guay pero comete muchos errores con los géneros. Por ejemplo, pone: x está casado con un ingeniero. Y resulta que el ingeniero es una mujer, no un hombre. 

por otro lado los niveles de “cocina y oficina” son siempre iguales  

El resto guay, entretenido.

### 3/5 — Fun, but need more towns

*2026-06-28, version 1.27.6*

I’m on level 709 (😱😵‍💫) and have 20,000+ coins, and 768 hammers and no place to use them.

### 4/5 — Some confusion in family relationships

*2026-06-26, version 1.27.5*

The game is addictive, but doesn’t know that if you share a parent you are half siblings. It will say someone shares a parent but has no siblings. Also a parent’s ex-spouse is not a stepparent.

### 3/5 — Great but room for improvement

*2026-06-23, version 1.27.5*

I love this game it’s so addictive I could play all day EXCEPT I hate the Dinner party and Office levels. There are simply not enough clues to help you. A clue will say “The Asian couple sit across from each other enjoying the chicken” then the pictures will have multiple Asian couples.

### 1/5 — Sells your personal information

*2026-08-29, version 2.0.0*

Another app harvesting your data to sell onto many other companies, too many to count. Deleted

### 1/5 — Repetitive and Poorly Written

*2026-07-26, version 1.28.1*

The clues in this game are obviously translated into English by a non-native speaker or AI that doesn’t understand grammar, the correct usage of pronouns, or family connections; clues often confuse siblings for cousins and mislabel aunts and uncles as siblings or in-laws. Incorrect grammar leads to confusing clues where commas might have added clarity. Main levels are repetitive, but less noticeably than the daily puzzles which repeat twice a month or so. The app crashes routinely and I’m not going to waste another second on it.

### 1/5 — Не поддерживает русский

*2026-07-19, version 1.28.1*

Не поддерживает русский, нет украинского 
Уберите русский из описания, зря скачивала

### 1/5 — Обновление помойка

*2026-07-18, version 1.28.1*

Играла с удовольствием, пока не обновила. Столько лишнего… добавили жизни, всякие возможности покупок и прочий мусор, до этого была аккуратная минималистичная в каком то смысле игра. А еще из отвратительного: уменьшили текст и иконки персонажей. Так же кол-во ошибок с трех до двух. Наверное, в скором времени, игра исчезнет с моего экрана

### 1/5 — Nogo

*2026-06-06, version 1.27.2*

Don’t play this game unless you want to shell out a lot of money free - ha-ha

### 1/5 — Used to like it

*2026-05-28, version 1.27.2*

Had this game like a year ago and it was fun. I switch games a lot so I came back to it. Unfortunately the new office and dinner levels ruined it for me… I see in other reviews it’s not just me that has an issue with them. I’ll come back in another year and see if y’all listened to the people and got rid of those levels. ✌️

### 1/5 — Great game -BUT dont bother

*2026-05-27, version 1.27.2*

It will cost you just to play let alone that there are so many ads. If you make 2 mistakes when you play you either pay money or quit never to see that board again. It’s so frustrating. It’s such a shame because with a small tweak (like an option to continue when you make a mistake without paying) this would be a brilliant game. Take the Shenzhen one, it’s not as good but it’s a better playing experience.

### 1/5 — Lost purchase

*2026-05-24, version 1.26.2*

I was really enjoying this game until the latest update. I spent money to get rid of the ads permanently and ever since the latest update the ads are back. I have contacted support and given proof of purchase with no communication since.

### 1/5 — Don’t bother

*2026-05-22, version 1.26.2*

I have been playing this game since May 2024 and even purchased the “ad free” version as I enjoyed it so much.
Suddenly, “ad free” has ads and I am required to pay more money for a few days of ad free play. There are even ads now while the game loads.
This is despite no new levels being added to the ‘build’ and ‘classic’ games for over a year. 
I know that it costs money to make these apps but the app makers seem to have chosen profits over players.

### 1/5 — Used to be good

*2026-05-22, version 1.26.2*

Been playing this for a long time. Now with the latest update you suddenly want me to pay £7.99 to remove ads? No thanks. I’m out

### 5/5 — Attention ai nomi!

*2026-06-27, version 1.27.6*

Tutto vero quanto già detto: è carino, comincia a ripetersi, vogliamo l’italiano…ma uno scambio di nomi tipo Rachel/Rebecca, al liv. 47 mi ha fatto incavolare perché ci ho perso un sacco di tempo e mi ha costretta a usare l’aiuto per la prima volta. Se no non ne sarei mai uscita. ERRORE STUPIDO MA GRAVISSIMO !!!

### 5/5 — love this game

*2026-06-12, version 1.27.2*

so fun on ipad. but wish there was an account function to sync up my levels from my iphone

### 5/5 — Love it

*2026-06-09, version 1.27.2*

This game is amazing but the ads are interesting

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2026-06-07, version 1.27.2*

Super fun

### 5/5 — Ahhhh

*2026-06-05, version 1.27.2*

5 stars, super fun game

### 5/5 — Fun

*2026-05-06, version 1.26.1*

Honestly, few creative games like this out there. Good on you.

### 5/5 — 𝓉𝒾𝒶𝓃𝒶

*2026-03-04*

𝒾 𝓁ℴ𝓋ℯ  𝓉𝒽ℯ ℊ𝒶𝓂ℯ 𝒶 𝓁ℴ𝓉 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2026-02-14, version 1.22.2*

Just amazing

### 5/5 — Great logic. .. BUT

*2026-02-11, version 1.22.2*

I really did grow to like this game a lot.  I was up to level 1000+.  But what made me delete the game is that when I would make a mistake, it would cost too much to continue the level. You only had 3 lives and then you had to either watch an ad for lives, or begin again. But if it was a hard level, you would be out quickly and still right back where you started. I got tired of paying to play (fake coins).

### 5/5 — Build has remained stagnant

*2026-02-09, version 1.22.2*

I have been this game for ages and I’ve completed the Build part 17 to Crystalvale and the next build part has written the words “coming soon” for many months.  I am getting tired and if you want to keep your users I suggest you get Build back in motion.  Also add more challenging games like office and dining. Hope you take my comment seriously. Cheers
