### 4/5 — Geek Quiz

*2017-12-05, version 1.7*

Very geeky, which means good.

### 3/5 — Mr.

*2016-11-05, version 1.6*

I like the idea of the game. I like how it will speak the question and speak the choices also. The only thing is that it will show  the correct answer, however, it will not speak it. Would you mind fixing that please? Thanks. Also, I  think it would help if it says a, B, C, or D before each question. And, it would be easier for blind and visually impaired people if they just rotate their phone right for a, up for B, left for C, and down for D since when you have voice over on, it would drown  out the voice that's speaking the question. These are my suggestions.

### 4/5 — Good app

*2015-06-09, version 1.5.1*

Nice variety of trivia questions. Very well done app.

### 3/5 — Evolve please

*2014-06-24, version 1.5.1*

Very nice game, but mph??? Seriously??  Please use km and km/h....

### 4/5 — Time is my enemy

*2014-05-30, version 1.5.1*

It's a nice game, good questions too but if you are a bit slow in reading and making a choice you will end up making a wild guess because the time is running out.

I like to see an option where the player has no time restriction, or even better the choice to decide the waiting time.

I understand that to see the answers one is expected to buy the full version, I don't agree with it, but understand it. I would have provided more questions for the paid version instead.

### 4/5 — Neat

*2013-07-08, version 1.4*

I like that this is accessible to blind users.

### 4/5 — Fun

*2013-05-10, version 1.4*

Good app

### 4/5 — Cool

*2013-04-20, version 1.4*

I keep on getting 98%

### 3/5 — Not what I expected.

*2013-03-21, version 1.4*

I expected "computer geek" make one for that and I will be happy! :)

### 5/5 — !

*2013-03-01*

Good game

### 3/5 — Not bad

*2013-02-10, version 1.4*

Could use more time for a more accurate rating before

### 5/5 — Love it

*2013-02-08, version 1.4*

Seems I wasn't as big of a geek as I thought I was :(

### 3/5 — Good

*2013-02-01, version 1.4*

Only used it once before it asked for a review, so I don 't have much to say

### 3/5 — Great if you buy

*2013-01-14, version 1.4*

Got this app on a free and it's great, but pretty useless if you don't buy the answers as you never learn anything otherwise! But the questions are challenging and nicely varied.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Very offended

*2020-09-16, version 1.8*

Why can only people 12 and older be geeks that’s really rude

### 1/5 — No customization

*2019-01-08, version 1.8*

Claims to be number one geek quiz. You would think people who know this much about geeky stuff could add a simple settings bar to turn off the annoying question read-alouds. Or the obnoxious win lose sounds. Also this game has like 5,000 downloads so why does it have ads still. I know it isnt making them more than $5 a week so what is the point.

### 1/5 — Update lost my full paid version

*2018-09-17, version 1.7*

Purchased the full version with answers and no ads. However after the update  the full version was lost. Now ads keep popping up and no option to view answers anymore
Original version was way better.

### 1/5 — Dumb

*2012-11-03, version 1.3*

What makes these geeky questions!

### 1/5 — Too many wrong answers

*2012-07-09, version 1.2*

The game claims that there are 1024 bits in a byte and that the Atari Lynx was the first handheld console (absent any specific criteria for what constitutes a full-on console, the Game Boy still came out a month earlier in North America, and neither console was its company's first). 
The color scheme, spelling and grammar all could also use work.

### 1/5 — Dull

*2012-05-22, version 1.2*

Very Dull!!!

### 2/5 — Not bad but can be frustrating

*2018-09-06, version 1.7*

It takes a while to show each question and the timeout bar isn’t easy to see. Also, you immediately lose when you get a question wrong - it’d be better for the questions to come in sets of 10 with a score based on how many you got right

### 2/5 — Was great now so so

*2016-08-26, version 1.6*

Old version 5 this version much to slow.

### 2/5 — What true geek misspells "Star Trek"?

*2013-01-13, version 1.4*

Whomever wrote this app needs to do some proof reading... In five minutes of play, I noticed "Alexandra Graham Bell" and "Start Trek". This could be a fun game, it has a lot of potential; hopefully they'll take care of the typos in a future update. For now, I'm unimpressed and uninstalling.

### 2/5 — Bad answers

*2012-12-18, version 1.3*

I have seen more than one questions where none of the answers is correct. Latest one, "what does HDD stand for" - it's hard disk drive, dumbos - not "high density drive".... How did you come up with that?

### 5/5 — My favourite Apple TV Game

Easily the best game on Apple TV.

*2015-01-02, version 1.5.1*
