MUST READ

Don't buy the other charters waste of money and waste of space.
BGBG Grad

Terrible waste of time and space

Waste of time. It's a poorly made ripoff of "guess who". Which in theory sounds fun, but it's very slow to load and you have to be in the same location as the other person playing. Not an online capable game.
MMinxchi

Cheap rip off of guess who

Terrible. Boring. Waste of time. You need another person with the game to play.
BYBBQ is yummy

Waste of time

IKR it's totally a waste of time
