### 4/5 — Good, but buggy

*2026-03-21, version 2.1.9 (115)*

When playing with the Zombies expansion, the game crashes halfway through.

### 4/5 — Fun chaotic game

*2025-07-02, version 2.1.8*

The game works well when playing solo against the robot. (I don’t play multiplayer online so I can’t speak to that.) I believe it saves if you quit the app, though I think it replays the animation of the last turn, which isn’t a dealbreaker. I don’t play with the expansions, so I can’t speak to how those work. In the past the zombie expansion would freeze mid-game. That may have been fixed, but I prefer to play the base game anyway so I haven’t tested it recently.  The game plays well on a phone since you can zoom in on cards. After you’re familiar with them all you won’t even have to zoom. I recommend this light strategy game where you can never predict the outcome. It’s chaotic and enjoyable if you accept the chaos.

### 4/5 — Hoping For More Versions!

*2025-07-01, version 2.1.8*

I just discovered this app tonight. I realize it is old. I hope the creators keep updating and add some more versions. I especially enjoy Star Fluxx, Star Trek Fluxx, and Doctor Who Fluxx (though I realize due to copyright/royalties the TV show-based versions would probably be too expensive to incorporate into the app. But I can hope! It took about 20-30 minutes to figure out how the app version worked. Sometimes buttons in the main menu won’t respond. Overall, however, I loved getting to play Fluxx online with a friend and plan to do so again.

### 2/5 — Options

*2025-04-24, version 2.1.8*

No user option to disable sound.

### 2/5 — Kein Querformat…

*2024-07-10*

… fürs ipad

### 2/5 — Please update!!

*2024-07-07, version 2.1.5*

The app really does work well, but the main pet peeve is you can’t minimize while going to other apps.  Or even checking notifications .   You have to tap the game, wait for it to load, and let the last play replay itself. 

But other then that the game is beautifully designed and very responsive. Love the time easter egg.

### 4/5 — 4 player bug

*2024-07-06, version 2.1.5*

3 times I’ve won a 4 player game it hasn't added on to my stats. :/

### 3/5 — Love Fluxx, glitching overshadowing fun

*2024-02-02, version 2.1.5*

I just became aware of Fluxx recently IRL and was so happy to find the app so I could play with friends when we aren’t together. I noticed immediately that notifications aren’t working, no biggie… until I see more than five games open and waiting to start (with multiplayers) and suddenly the app seems overwhelmed because the offline games are constantly shutting off before I can finish them, and the screens are overlapping each other when I toggle between them. Truly Hope attention is paid to fixing this and adding decks. Thanks!

### 3/5 — Verification

*2024-01-01, version 2.1.5*

Still waiting , few days …nothing ..? 
Help

### 4/5 — Small view

*2023-12-26, version 2.1.5*

Well I like Fluxx and am glad to see the app version...HOWEVER...I am finding it hard to read the cards in my hand..and I am using an iPad mini...I can imagine the difficulty someone would have if using a phone...is there any way to zoom in on the cards?  Hink I remember seeing something, but I also did not see a quick way to return to the main menu for help...thanks...
