Lots to do

Game play changes keeping it fresh ….great game !

Great app!

I really love this app! The gameplay is great, and works excellently. There are a few minor bugs/cosmetic issues on some of the different menus. But the actual gameplay is seamless. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a fun game to play with family/friends!

Would highly recommend!

I have really enjoyed this app! It’s every bit as much fun as the actual game, and a whole lot easier to bring on trips! Though there are a few minor bugs/cosmetic issues on the different menus. Such as some of the deck names, if you click into them, show up in Spanish. It doesn’t effect game play at all, it’s just a random thing. Also, with the new update if you click your profile or coin count there’s a little notification at the bottom that says: “You have {coins} coins” instead of showing the actual amount. It just seems like they didn’t link the coin amount properly. Though, again, these aren’t really problems, just minor bugs. The actual gameplay (which is all that really matters) works excellently! Kudos to the devs on this! I have had a lot of fun with family and friends, as well as just playing solo on this app.

Response from developer

Thank you so much for the positive response on the game.

Love it; add the online

I was just delighted to find this, after playing the physical game most of my adult life. Now it’s on my phone and I always have it. The organization of the play using the “decks” for topics is cool too. I’m just now looking at the online multiplayer game. I would love to see this added to the app!

Response from developer
