Broken Game
Category: “Sports etymology”
Answer: “Packaging for a replica of of this alliterative movie prop boasts the inclusion of a full-size shade & the mark “This End Up”
Question: “What is Alley-Oop?”
This was on the Final Jeopardy round today. Utterly nonsensical.

Love the game but…
Some of the answers they say are correct are either trick questions or just plain wrong.
Example: which zodiac sign is considered to have the most legs. The answer SHOULD be Scorpio with 8 legs but their answer is Cancer even though most drawing younger have Cancer depicted with 4 legs
Updates: final Jeopardy question in Sports Etymology but the question did not have ANYTHING to do with Sports. It was a question about Replica memorabilia from A Christmas Story. Of course I answered wrong because I had to guess something…between Slam Dunk, Ally Oop, Home Run and a fourth answer I can’t recall no answer made sense. Guessed Slam Dunk and it was Ally Oop.

This is a device with a keyboard!
Various menus don’t let you scroll with two fingers, you need to click and drag (what?) Beginning the game you’re told exactly what answer to input (huh?) No keyboard controls past an ugly on-screen keyboard it doesn’t seem like you can dismiss. This is a Mac game! Bad look on Apple to put this on their service.

Fun but ignores the Apple Pencil’s input
This has become part of my daily puzzle routine. It’s fun, a little buggy, but these types of trivia games are tough to pull off, lots of moving parts. One nitpick: I’d prefer to use my Apple Pencil to play so my hand isn’t blocking part of the screen for any last-second picks. Not sure if intentional or not, but the game ignores any input from the Apple Pencil, even simple tapping.

Too much pop culture
Has potential but leans super heavy on knowledge of current pop culture
After more than a year I’m fed up and done
I play daily and usually by Wed the rank stops updating no matter how many more points I get. This is frustrating. What’s the point of even playing if the rankings don’t update. Obviously the developers don’t care about fixing it.
Fix the archives
Please make it so when I am doing archives the top option after a column is to go back to the current archive I am doing rather than sprints, it is really annoying
The buzz not working
Trying to do today’s buzz but nothing happens when I click on it. Will I lose my streak for the 30 day achievement?
Decent
The gameplay is decent, albeit the flow could improve. Get ready to answer a lot us USA cantered questions.
Fruits and vegetables
Too easy
Lake Ontario
Great job on keeping the answer as Lake Ontario on today’s boards and not changing to or accepting the other name.
The scoring is messed up
Why is the leaderboard and scoring not updating? It’s still showing my point total from Monday? It’s Friday now. Please fix.
Fun game
This game is an awesome game
Perfect
Being a Jeopardy-head, I love it.
Room for improvement
Generally a good game but it’s tailored to residents of the United States only. People in Amsterdam don’t really get opportunity to keep up to date with who the governor of Wisconsin was between 86-89
Love jeopardy
I love playing this game daily, plus I love the new addition of buzz, it’s a great addition!
I just wish I was better at the clues ;)

LOVE this game but FIX THIS!!!!
This has become my obsession since first discovering it on Apple Arcade and it’s a FANTASTIC game! BUT the newest update with The Buzz feature has now made it so the “continue boards” button has disappeared when playing archives. The button has been replaced by “play sprints” so in order to continue playing the game you’re playing from a date, or even play the Daily Double, you have to hit “archives” and then go back into the date. It’s really frustrating and inefficient! Please fix this!! Also maybe it’s because not a ton of folks have played The Buzz archives yet, but the ranking system is clearly malfunctioning. My overall score increased but my overall ranking went up? Isn’t the goal to have a smaller number rank and climb to number one?

Overall great. Leaderboard broken.
This app generally functions well but the leader board will randomly stop updating with your actual points
Do better
While I love this game, I find it disheartening that there’s a special category for every major holiday and even unimportant ones, like today’s “cat day”, but there wasn’t a Juneteenth category 🤔
