Way too many ads

Game is nostalgic and well made BUT the constant ads even in the middle of a level is just annoying. I get that ads are necessary to pay the bills, but it’s just way too many. I watch more ads than actually playing the game. Deleting.

Response from developer

Mid-level ads are the most intrusive spot they can land, and “more ads than game” is a trade we wouldn’t pick either. Glad the nostalgia landed; sorry the interruptions outweighed it. The VIP subscription turns ads off while it’s active, if you come back. — the Flashback Trivia team

Too many ads

There are way too many ads. The game itself is simple, but there are like three ads in every round and another before you start the next round. You can pay 3.99 per week to get rid of ads. That’s close to $200 per year to play this one little game without ads. I deleted it.

Response from developer

You did the weekly math, and that's exactly the objection worth hearing — we've passed it to the team that decides how ad removal is packaged. Three ads in a round is also more than anyone wants to sit through. Sorry it cost us your play. — the Flashback Trivia team

ADS!

Every round is interrupted by at least one ad. Deleted.

Good too many ads

Fun keeps you busy, but way too many ads.

Response from developer

Thanks — glad it keeps you busy! Ad balance is the #1 thing we hear and we're tuning it. The remove-ads option in the app skips them entirely if you'd rather. — the Flashback Trivia team

Too many ads

App forces you to watch ads if you wanna play

$3.99 a week to remove ads??!!

This game is okay but they shove ads at you literally every ten seconds. I thought I’d consider paying to remove ads but it costs $3.99 a WEEK!!! That is absolutely insane for a run of the mill trivia game. I’m deleting this game right now!

Generally fun but…

Fun game except that they should not ask you to identify celebrities from the past by current-day photos. Many change a lot or even have plastic surgery and can’t be identified.

Response from developer

Great point — recognizing someone from a current photo is a different (and unfair) challenge than remembering the era. We've passed this to the question team; photo choice is something we actively curate. Thanks for the thoughtful note. — the Flashback Trivia team

Too Many Ads

Loved the game until the ads started after question. Deleted.

Too many ads

Ads take away from the game

Flashback Trivia

A fun enjoyable game not too hard

Ads crash the game

I love the game, however the ads often crash the game and I have to restart. DELETE!

Too many ads

Way too many ads

Ads, Ads, and More Ads

This would be an amazing game if every time you make a selection there wasn’t another ad! And to stop Ads, it’s $3.99 a month. Why not a set rate?

TOO MANY ADS!!

Love the trivia, but the amount of ads just makes it too annoying to play! After every couple questions, there’s an ad that takes longer than answering the two questions! Deleting the app altogether!

Response from developer

An ad that runs longer than the questions it interrupts is a fair complaint — thanks for spelling it out. We're tuning both frequency and pacing. Glad you love the trivia itself; we'd like to win you back. — the Flashback Trivia team

Love the game but . . .

Sometimes you can’t even play a total game without an ad. The ads are excessively long. Some ads can’t be gotten rid of such as the one for PAYPAL cash. I have no doubt that that is a scam.

Flashback Trivia

I LOVE It . Brings great memories

Flashback Trivia

I like playing this game because it takes me to a trip down memory lane. I have a unique gift from my maker so let’s go thank you.

Picture

Game is fun, but I’d like to put my picture with my name.

Too Bad

When I first started playing this game, the ads were short and I could deal with it but now they’re so long and ridiculous that I cannot play this game anymore

Response from developer

Thanks for the honest timeline — ad length varies by network, and keeping the long ones in check is active work on our side. "Short enough to deal with" is the right bar. Hope we can win you back. — the Flashback Trivia team

Ads!!!!

Too many ads interrupting game
