### 1/5 — nasty ai game

*2026-07-21*

the ai pictures are such a headache, the fact that you’re charging for this is embarrassing

**Developer response:** We’re sorry the images didn’t meet your expectations. This game was developed long before AI were introduced, and the subscription supports the full app experience, ongoing development, new features, and regular updates—not just the visuals. That said, we understand your frustration and are actively working to improve the image quality.

### 1/5 — Review you need to fix

*2024-09-28*

No free games only a few so don’t buy the free trial for your own wallet

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! While we offer free content to get started, we believe it's fair to ask for payment after a certain point, as a lot of effort goes into developing and maintaining the app. We appreciate your understanding!

### 1/5 — Refund

*2024-09-22*

This game was not even close to being as good as heads up and it didn’t give me notification before I charged my card and I want a refund because i cancelled the subscription the same day it was charged

**Developer response:** We're sorry to hear about your experience. Unfortunately, we can't issue refunds directly, but you can request one through Apple's support page. We're working hard to improve, and we appreciate your feedback!

### 1/5 — Review

*2024-08-29*

Having to pay for this not of is a rip off would not recommend is very boring with the themes it gives you

**Developer response:** Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. We’re very sorry to hear about your experience. While we understand everyone has different preferences, we feel that calling the app a 'rip off' is a bit strong. 

We offer a trial version so you can explore over 50 categories without any commitment. 

We also take our customers' tastes into account and add suggested categories every week based on your feedback.

Also we offer a custom category feature so that you can create your own categories. It is limitless and it is totally FREE. 

We totally respect your review but calling like this seems unfair when we consider the all effort we try to put.

### 1/5 — Basically…

*2024-06-16*

Not a great competitor to Heads Up. The free categories are random and either way too easy or way too specific.

**Developer response:** We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience you've encountered. Your feedback is incredibly valuable to us, and we truly appreciate the time you've taken to share your thoughts. Thank you for contributing to our continuous improvement.

We're excited to inform you that we're planning to enhance our category quality. This new feature will be released soon—please stay tuned for updates. We look forward to serving you better in the days to come!

### 1/5 — No me gustó

*2024-04-04*

No tiene muchos niveles

**Developer response:** Lamentamos cualquier inconveniente que hayas experimentado. Hasta ahora, nuestros esfuerzos se han centrado principalmente en mejorar la interfaz de usuario y solucionar errores, lo que nos ha dejado con pocas oportunidades para introducir nuevas categorías. Sin embargo, me complace informarte que nuestra próxima actualización incluirá cuatro nuevas categorías, y de ahora en adelante, nos comprometemos a añadir regularmente nuevas categorías. Gracias por tu paciencia y apoyo continuo; estamos dedicados a hacer las cosas bien para ti. Quédate con nosotros, ¡te lo compensaremos!

### 3/5 — Eh

*2025-04-06*

You have to pay for most options

**Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback!  While many options are part of the paid version, we do have plans to expand our free decks. Stay with us—more free content is on the way! 🎉

### 3/5 — Review

*2024-09-27*

Not the best

### 3/5 — Only download this if your parents will pay money for the fee

*2024-06-09*

I gave this 3 stars only because you have to pay a fee each month. Another thing is I don't think you should have to pay to unlock other categories. Those 2 things are my only pet peeves with this app. Other than that it's great. 🙃👌

**Developer response:** We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience you've encountered. We truly value your feedback and appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts with us. Thank you for helping us improve our service.

### 3/5 — READ THIS!!

*2024-04-05*

I think this app should absolutely have more categories! I think the 36 you have is great but more should be open. Only for are open to all people. You have to have PRO to access the rest and that is silly. But other than that the app is nice. PLEASE consider my suggestion!

**Developer response:** We apologize for any inconvenience you may have experienced. Up until now, our efforts have been primarily directed towards enhancing the user interface and addressing bugs, leaving us with limited opportunities to introduce new categories. However, I'm pleased to inform you that our next release will include four new categories, and moving forward, we commit to regularly adding new categories. Thank you for your patience and continued support; we're dedicated to making things right for you. Stay with us - we'll make it up to you :)

### 4/5 — Love the game

*2025-03-30*

I love this game I’ve spent the last thirty minutes looking for a good charades game but my only problem with this one is that most of the themes are locked so unless you want to make one of that theme then you can’t do it but this is the best one I’ve seen today it is also super fun

**Developer response:** Thanks a lot for the kind words! 🎉 We’re happy you’re enjoying the game. We’ll be adding more free themes soon, so stay tuned! 💛

### 4/5 — It’s not a review but a question.

*2024-08-24*

How do I cancel my 3-day trial/subscription? I cannot find anything about that.

**Developer response:** Hello Anjofie,

You can contact us via anilakgunes@gmail.com. I can send you the Apple guide on how to cancel your subscription. You can also check Apple support website that is explained very well there.
