### 2/5 — Mediocre

*2026-08-23, version 2.38.0*

FIX THE LAG IN SWISH SHOWDOWN.

The bonuses are okay. They provide (limited) gameplay recordings for wagers over $0.60. You will eventually start playing the same 3-4 people in certain contests over and over. The games get stagnant and boring after time, but I do like a few of them a lot (Boggle, Card Match). They need to at least add one new game every 2 months. 

I feel like both Triumph Arcade and Faceoff use a similar tactic that scans your play behavior and balance. You will notice that the closer you get to $0.00 balance, the algo will pair you against what it wants to (not randomly, in hopes of forcing a deposit after giving you the loss).

Just be careful, they aren’t on your side.

### 2/5 — Boggle game

*2026-08-22, version 2.38.0*

You should get points for getting the most words as well. Or give a better detailed point system at the end in some way because it’s annoying getting over 20 more words but still losing. I understand you can watch the replays but getting that much more words should get rewarded in some way.

### 3/5 — Games

*2026-08-10, version 2.37.0*

The app was better when you could play against your friends and family.
Also bring back Wheel Of Fortune cause that was one of the top games I played.

### 3/5 — Deposit Methods

*2026-07-31, version 2.37.0*

Faceoff either should offer PayNearMe, or allow you to access money you deposit via the sporstbook app on both there and the Faceoff app. I shouldn’t have to use PayNearMe through the sportsbook app, which forces me to have to make a bet on something so that I can then have the money returned and be able to use it on Faceoff.

### 4/5 — Ratings of players

*2026-07-26, version 2.37.0*

Everyone should be assigned a rating so you know you are up against equal competition.  I’m skeptical.

### 1/5 — COMPLETE JOKE SCAM

*2026-07-20, version 2.37.0*

Yall get this. So im playing wheel of fortune right. The category is movies. And I guess my first letter. Get it right. It happens to be the first letter of the movie. And something just clicked in my brain. I just saw it clear as day. Doesn’t happen often, but just the rare occasion where I know the answer off one letter.

So now I’m flying through it. Obviously not going to make any wrong guesses. So I fly through the consonants, punch in the vowels, and compete the puzzle at lightening speed with no misses. Then I also get the final round whatever it’s called correct as well.

Let’s think about what this means. Someone who has played the game many times and knows how to be quick. Who essentially knows the right answer. Other than my first letter guessed (which I got right) every other letter I guessed was with the full knowledge of what the answer is. 

So the only possible way I could lose is if someone also was as knowledgeable at playing the game as I am AND knew the puzzle after one guess AND happened to guess a better letter with their first guess than i did. 

So essentially my opponent would have to also have played a perfect game and then on the off chance I was paired w the rare person who also played a perfect game, that person would then also have to beat me in the lucky aspect (the first guess) 

The odds are so insanely low of this happening it’s comical. I played the best game of my life and like 98% of as perfect as a game as can be played. and lost by 400 points LMAO

(Side note I won
 $200 on dfs yesterday. This is what they do. This is the whole point of this app. To steal back money from you. It’s absolute criminal behavior)

DO NOT PLAY THIS BS!!

### 4/5 — Legit

*2026-07-17, version 2.37.0*

Love the game options. Don’t play too many in a row if you’re winning. You’ll lose a bunch in a row. Also, overspending is common so use their daily limits to stop you from spending too much. Great feature. I wish they had a quicker payout but still quick. :)

### 1/5 — Lag

*2026-07-15, version 2.36.1*

Major lag and glitches

### 3/5 — Above Industry Average

*2026-07-13, version 2.36.1*

FanDuel is above the industry average. Not that it doesn’t have some issues. I can certainly tell you there are some. Overall, I like FanDuel more. It offers more than many other sports books in my opinion. But anyway, I’d be curious about when Faceoff decided to stop having tournaments with prize pools comparable to the prize pools of some of the golf and baseball tournaments they had between April and the end of August last year. I haven’t seen a golf or baseball tournament with a prize pool of at least $15,000 in nearly a year.

### 1/5 — No skill-matching

*2026-07-09, version 2.36.1*

Fanduel says that they do “skill-matching” where they pair you with players that have similar experience and average scores but they don’t at all. I’m regularly matched up against people that have played 30x more than me and have 25% higher average scores. Don’t waste your money unless it’s on the free games. I brought this up with support and got a case number and then no response.

### 1/5 — FanDuel, your app is rigged.

*2026-07-08, version 2.36.1*

Big rigged

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your money

*2026-07-04, version 2.36.1*

No matter how well you do in the game you’ll consistently only win 1/10 games. You could set a personal record in a game, doing nearly perfectly, and it’ll match you with someone who did better. Frustrating and not enjoyable.

### 1/5 — Daily locker

*2026-06-30, version 2.36.1*

This is absolutely the worst promotion I’ve ever seen!! oh wow I save 5 cents off a game. Waste of time horrible website stick to Sportsbook. daily lacquer is a joke!! whatever happened to the daily baseball thing or the daily basketball shot. Definitely was better when it first started but now it’s just a waste of time and money and not even fun at all

### 1/5 — Ridiculously Hard

*2026-06-29, version 2.36.1*

Game started as fun as you would win some and lose some. Then the more you play the algorithm starts putting you into games where it becomes impossible to win.

### 1/5 — Will lose more games than you will ever win even though you are supposedly playing real opponents.

*2026-06-28, version 2.36.1*

I have played this app since it came out and ever since the last update, it puts me against people that I shouldn’t be playing against most of the time since it says it will match you on or close to your same skill level. I love the Field Goal Faceoff game but I am considering to never play the app again. I feel like it lets me win some to keep me playing but I never win more than I lose. I played a perfect game the other day, kicked 19 in a row field goals and still lost. I have never felt so cheated in my life. I can start getting on a roll but somehow my opponent miraculously beats me by a few points. I see why some people are so mad about the games.

### 2/5 — Fix your game.

*2026-06-26, version 2.36.1*

It glitches way more often than it should. Your grid on the golf game isn’t true. Sometimes my ball on the golf game will randomly shoot off in a different direction than it should travel. Fix the game. Your customers deserve better.

### 1/5 — RIGGED, don’t waste your money

*2026-08-25, version 2.38.0*

Beside the fact that the game errors multiple times daily and then support doesn’t want to refund you your own money because their app crashed is outrageous. Then if you do win, you won’t for long! Don’t waste your money because they will “player match” you against people who averages thousands MORE than your average game scores, then when you ask support about it, it’s MATChED “fair” even if you do LOSE to the “equally matched opponent” 

You go to support, chat, email, etc with no changes! They respond they want to make things right and they don’t!! Waste of time and money!!!!!!!!!!
Go to another platform!

### 1/5 — Awful game - avoid

*2026-08-24, version 2.38.0*

This game is set up to steal your money. 

They continuously match you up with bots that “just happen” to win the vast majority of the time. 

Treat your money better by lighting it on fire.

### 1/5 — Very Rigged

*2026-08-17, version 2.37.0*

It’s very clear the game is rigged you’ll sit there and play and be able to even tell due to some games having replays and some not and they’re always gonna have some kind of explanation explaining how it’s not reached, but it very much is I’ve played the same player multiple times not even within the same day. I’ve played the same player weeks from weeks and that’s not just a coincidence I even have proof this is all just ridiculous. This app is very much a scam and I hope you guys are smart enough to stay away from this. It automatically puts you in a game where they will know if you will win or lose because when the game is over, they were already be a score and it’s like it’ll be just 100 or 200 above yours just doesn’t make sense

### 1/5 — Awful app - avoid

*2026-08-17, version 2.37.0*

FanDuel keeps deleting my accurate reviews. 

That totally matches how they actually do business. 

Don’t spend money on this app. You get matched with bots that “just happen” to score more than you all the time. 

Avoid.

### 1/5 — Can’t even verify

*2026-08-10, version 2.37.0*

Won’t let you verify, customer service is BoT only … got tired of trying. Going to triumph.

### 1/5 — Beware!!

*2026-08-10, version 2.37.0*

Beware!! While well made and fun to play, this app along with its bots and algorithms will take your money! 
“The house” always wins!

### 1/5 — Scam

*2026-08-05, version 2.37.0*

This app will only take your money, don’t trust the fake bot reviews.

### 1/5 — Definitively Rigged

*2026-08-04, version 2.37.0*

They match you up with people with varying skill levels depending on your score. All in the hopes to keep you at a win percentage of 50% of below. Do not give in. It is a scam.

### 1/5 — Rigged!!!

*2026-07-30, version 2.37.0*

You'll lose your money! I promise you! The better you get, the harder it is to win. Which makes NO sense! I think they have bots playing that win and take your money!!! It's a scam and it's rigged! Beware!!!!

### 1/5 — Scam

*2026-07-23, version 2.37.0*

This app is an absolute scam. All structured to lose money over time. User beware!!!!!

### 5/5 — FANDUEL FACEOFF

*2026-08-28, version 2.38.0*

A complete collection of superb games to play. These are all top of the line. They keep your mind active & are fun to play. You can compete for money against others, or just relax & enjoy beating your own best scores.

### 5/5 — Love the game

*2026-08-21, version 2.38.0*

I think that the game is a very fun game just like the other person said, but. On the other hand I have won some money one here . Just pulled five off yesterday and played another 5 buck fantasy football . Also I never put a dollar on it to get the five .  The game has cool bonus sometimes.

### 5/5 — Enjoying

*2026-07-16, version 2.37.0*

Enjoy the daily challenges.

### 5/5 — Just play for free

*2026-07-10, version 2.36.1*

These games are actually fun but if you try to win money you will LOSE every time! Duh! How else would they make money off it??

### 5/5 — Fun app BUT….

*2026-06-13, version 2.36.1*

For some reason I get rewards for deep sea search. But that game doesn’t exist. I go to all games and I don’t see it. Does anyone else have deep sea search? Am I the only player who’s missing it?!?!?!???????

### 5/5 — Love it

*2026-01-07, version 2.31.1*

I love the app but one thing i would love to see is more free games to be able to gain the minimum bets like how you did with daily shot and daily kick. Also not just for one or two days for it to disappear the next days and more options please also i would love to see a soccer game added like a penalty kick/free kick added

### 5/5 — Great

*2025-09-05, version 2.25.0*

Great

### 5/5 — Actually fun

*2025-07-11, version 2.21.1*

Give u bonuses and free games to practice so game is actually good just wish I could win more lol

### 5/5 — Some outstanding games just for free play. Only risk money you expect to lose!

*2025-03-13*

The quality of some of these strategic arcade-style games is exceptional, like block trail.  As always with such games, the details are key — board size, frequency/predictability of shapes, time limit, and the like.  But, it is a matched system so don't bet money unless you expect to lose it!! The system automatically matches you against people of similar score history who have a good chance of beating you.  In other words, imagine your scores average in the top 1% of all players...you'll be playing against another top 1% person online. If there's no one else top 1% online at that moment, you'll be up against the next best competitor available...and so on.  So just because you're good doesn't mean you're gonna win all the time.

Other highlights in terms of game quality alone: 
-Buena match (fun memory game, not too easy, not too tedious).  
-Scrabble Cube (excellent ui, very intuitive, good brain game combo working those spatial & linguistic cerebral muscles) 
-the sports-themed games are more nuanced than you'd expect. Spieth Fairway is pretty good, and, so is Gronk Spike cornhole...aside from the very annoying animated interludes i hope they ditch.

**Developer response:** Hello, thank you for the 5-star rating and for taking the time to leave a review! We appreciate you choosing FanDuel as your preferred Faceoff app!

### 5/5 — Love this

*2025-01-09, version 2.8.0*

It’s so fun and addicting to play if you bored play this game and make some money
