### 4/5 — Excellent

*2026-04-24*

This is a great game for History lovers, only gave 4 stars as the ads are so annoying 😕

### 4/5 — History App

*2025-06-25, version 1.2.0*

I love the game, but I hate all the darn commercials right in the middle of a quiz. Can I just pay for it?

### 2/5 — Locks up Frequently

*2025-05-19*

I like the game. The questions are challenging and interesting. BUT, at the end of an ad that requires you to click on a button in top right corner (iOS) that says continue (with a play symbol next to it), you can’t get past it. You have to close the app, then start the round all over, and over, and over. Even if you answer all questions correctly, you don’t get your rewards, because you have to close the app and start over. This takes all the fun and wanting to play the game away. Not worth the frustration.

### 4/5 — Reminder for Lost History

*2025-03-01*

Many historical events get lost due to being out of the modern world. This app allows you to revisit history, and reigniting the reasons why we continue to learn from it by digging in the past.

### 4/5 — Nice game

*2025-01-02*

Nice game

### 2/5 — Pop Ups

*2024-11-02, version 1.2.0*

There are more pop ups than actual game play. I deleted the App within 3 minutes after downloading.

### 3/5 — Too many ads

*2023-08-15, version 1.2.0*

Good History trivia game, but lots of ads

### 4/5 — Great game but one issue

*2023-06-01*

I love this game, it has been such a help in learning history. Though, when I don’t know the answer to a question I want to be able to know what it is without spending the in-game currency. The currency is a bit annoying to get and if I spent it every time I got a wrong answer I would run out rather soon. A huge fundamental in learning is being able to know your mistakes so you can work to fix them. I can understand why you have to pay to see your mistakes but I find it unnecessary.

### 3/5 — Wrong answer - Incas / Aztecs

*2023-02-09*

Call me fussy if you want but I do like quiz apps to be factually correct. 
Q: which of these was a great South American empire that flourished in the Middle Ages? 
A: Incas
The Inca empire was centred in Peru and ruled most of the west coast of South American from 1400s until Spanish arrived. 
This app says it is the Aztecs but they were in Mexico which is Central America. 
Apart from the wrong answer, it is ok just tedious as you start on childish questions

### 4/5 — simple, fun!

*2022-11-10, version 1.2.0*

my biggest gripe is w/ true or false Qs. if you say “true” incorrectly, it won’t tell you the correct fact, it’ll just tell you it was false. would love a bit more learning/education aspect :)

### 4/5 — Nice

*2022-11-01, version 1.2.0*

Good for testing your family.

### 2/5 — Not impressed

*2022-05-12, version 1.2.0*

Game was so-so, but due to the sex related ads, I’m not interested.

### 4/5 — When you a answer wrong

*2022-04-05, version 1.2.0*

I think when someone gets a answer wrong you should show witch one is right.

### 3/5 — Bug?

*2022-03-27, version 1.2.0*

Possible bug and or glitch. At the end of the round the game will freeze. And I have to leave the game. But I lose the progress and the rewards. The settings will work. But not the game.

### 5/5 — Excellent ~ Fun & Learning So Much!

*2022-02-22*

It’s a great game, it’s up to date with the questions and I am able to answer them. 
When my answer is wrong, I guess, usually I’m wrong but I am learning so much about History!
Thank you for everything,
Krista Smith

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Poor

*2026-01-11*

Within the first round I had four rounds of advertisements. Instant uninstall.

### 1/5 — unfortunate.

*2025-11-27, version 1.2.0*

Absolute trash. You cant even advance past level 1, as there are pop up ads that the app won’t allow you to close.

### 1/5 — Broken Game

*2025-10-29, version 1.2.0*

Don’t waste your time this game gets stuck in ads.

### 1/5 — Cool game but unplayable

*2025-05-05*

I was really excited to download this game and I was really happy with the great questions to had at first. But after only playing a few levels I’ve gotten stuck on a Royal Kingdoms add that doesn’t allow me to exit out. I’ve exited the game several times but every time I try to play the same add traps me only 6 question in. I’m sad because it seems really cool but the adds have destroyed it

### 1/5 — Bombarded with Lengthy Frequent Ridiculous Mandatory Advertisements

*2023-02-25, version 1.2.0*

Bombarded with lengthy mandatory ads frequently and unexpectedly at the worst possible times. Does not offer an ad-free paid version. Had to delete after two hours when the play-to-ad times was 50-50. Ridiculous ads for stupid games not even remotely related to history.

### 1/5 — Promising but Failed Expectations

*2021-06-01, version 1.2.0*

There are not enough levels in this game. You get four very general topics (modern history, ancient history, etc), 15 levels each. In total, there are roughly 600 or so questions. There should be more specific categories, for example: modern Asian history or American history. We should also have many more levels than 15. Truly disappointing app.

### 1/5 — Inappropriate Advertisements

*2021-01-05*

It was a simple enough trivia game that is supported by ads.  While that part was fine, though rudimentary, some of the ads were wholly inappropriate.  One was King’s something: Game of Lust.  I was luckily playing with me 8 year old when this came up and was able to end though it did show up with two partially nude maidens with a game of choice of size versus skill.  These are the reasons to avoid these types of ad supports apps/games.  Would recommend avoiding this as well and it should be labeled for mature audiences only.

### 1/5 — Not good app

*2020-04-14, version 1.0.2*

It gives me blank pages after few questions. No good app.

### 1/5 — Repetitive & glitchy

*2020-04-08, version 1.0.2*

Recycled questions... app shuts down for no reason...  etc

### 1/5 — Worst app I ever downloaded

*2020-02-22*

Same as other reviewers.  I can’t get past Level 4 on Middle Ages or Level 3 on Modern History without getting a blank page and losing all the points I had accumulated.  I tried deleting the app and downloaded again, but lost everything and had to start from Level 1 again, only to have the same thing happen.  Clearly this app needs to go back to the drawing board.  I will be deleting this app permanently after this review.

**Developer response:** Hi, thank you for the review. In the latest release we have greatly improved the game and removed those glitches. I hope you'll like the game more now! If you still find any other problems, please let us know at contact@worldofquizapps.com. We'll really appreciate your help!

### 5/5 — Love it

*2025-11-15, version 1.2.0*

Love it! It lets me show how nerdy I am😊.

### 5/5 — This app is amazing

*2025-10-16, version 1.2.0*

This is the app ever I love it so much! It’s great for learning and I also love how the questions are sometimes simple and sometimes hard. Just wanted to say that this app is great.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

### 5/5 — ii

*2024-12-06, version 1.2.0*

it’s how it looks and is a great way to kill time when board

### 5/5 — Well programmed! But a minor issue…

*2024-06-26*

I am some of a history buff and love learning about it. I got this app because I thought it could help me learn and because I am going on a 3 week trip and hoped it wouldn’t require internet for the ten hour flight. I tried it before hand and it is awesome! It gives accurate feedback and keeps your score for each level. But a minor issue is that it doesn’t explain something if you got it wrong. For example, if it asked me ‘True or False: Joseph Stalin was Chairman/Secretary of the USSR.’ (Sorry if this is inaccurate). If you chose false, it doesn’t explain the backstory which personally I would like. You can pay in game money to see the correct answer but it will only say ‘true’ with no further explanation. I do ask they put in something more like ‘True! Lenin gave him the job and that’s how he escalated to becoming a future USSR dictator’. Besides this, it is a great app and good for education in history.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2023-10-09, version 1.2.0*

Multiple genres and fun!

### 5/5 — Quick review

*2023-07-11*

### 5/5 — Amazing for learning!

*2023-04-22, version 1.2.0*

Im a small child trying to learn history. and this helps so Much I learn something new with this app Everyday!

### 5/5 — Five stars

*2023-04-06*

This game is so awesome because it's so educational for my kids when there bored. My oldest kid, Olivia always is up for a test or quiz so what I do is I download History Quiz for her and boom! She's done with the Modern History without a problem. 

Meanwhile my middle kid also likes quizzes but she prefer making books on google slides. This makes me frustrated because she doesn't make prehistoric books. My middle kid, Ashley, LOVES prehistoric history. So I go download History Quiz on her IPAD and she goes to Prehistoric Quiz and masters it.

Then  my youngest kid doesn't like any type of History except for the Middle Ages. So I download History Quiz for her and She masters the Middle Ages section and she played it over and over again.

Then we have my husband. He likes all type of History. I told him to download History Quiz and he finished everything in just 4 hours!!!! 

Then we have me. I am a History teacher and I love teaching Prehistoric, Middle Ages, and Modern History. So I told my High school kids to download History Quiz on their phones because it will probably help them study.

Thank you creators of this game. Our family wouldn't be happy without you.

### 5/5 — Very enjoyable

*2022-11-28*

I am a 12th grade history teacher these questions are helpful for only aiding in my students for better questions and information but as a way as well to help them use games to teach them some incredible information. Very thankful for your app.
