Again though, great for a free game with almost no ads! ### 4/5 — w game:p *2026-03-29, version 3.3.7* Love it but “Lithuania is in Eastern Asia” in guesses ### 4/5 — Add Portuguese *2025-09-21* Please add Portuguese the game is so good but I miss Portuguese ### 4/5 — Fun and well made *2025-06-23* My only issues are that my phone gets really hot, and that the app drains a lot of battery ### 4/5 — Leaderboards somewhat fickle *2025-06-14* Great game, it’s easy to get sucked into playing this geography quiz, something that is nostalgic for me particularly being an old geography fanatic. Writing since I’m not sure where else to put this, but playing a mix of twisted and regular games has made it so where if I play a twisted game (and get a score of 100,000), it nulls any improvement of regular game scores. for example, if i played a regular game and got a score of 96,000, then a twisted game of 130,000, and then a regular game score of 98,000, that newest score will not be updated to the leaderboard despite being a different difficulty of gameplay. not the end of the world, but it’s a little bummerish to get a PB and then it not show up in the leaderboards ### 4/5 — good game but overheat device and battery drains *2025-06-11* good game but overheat device and battery drains, no problem with game but battery drains and device becomes hot. game is good but my phone gets hot quickly and battery lowers fast. i like this game but my battery finishes rather quickly and my device heats up. overall good game but overheat device and battery drains ### 4/5 — Idioma *2025-03-28* Poderia ter em português ### 5/5 — Amazing but one feature request I think would make the game better *2024-12-26* I’ve been playing MapGame ever since it came out, and I have really enjoyed the ranked mode recently. I am suggesting the idea that we could see the rankings for any given day that isn’t just today and yesterday. Like have a sort of calendar menu for the user to pick a date and for the rankings for that specific day show up. **Developer response:** Thanks for the 5-star review! Yes, this is already on my to-do list. Have fun guessing! ### 5/5 — Incrível legal *2024-12-16* Máximo **Developer response:** Thanks for the 5-star review! Have fun guessing! ### 5/5 — Amazing game! *2024-11-12* Totally amazing game for anybody that loves geography, my one suggestion for the creator is to make it so that clues can’t overlap, ex; the countries capital is Podgorica, then the next hint is “this countries capital starts with P” and if you can, make it so that after it gives you a continent, it doesn’t give hints like “it’s in Europe”, then “it’s west of Papua New Guinea” but overall one of the best games I’ve played! **Developer response:** Thanks for the 5-star review! Yes, the hints order issue is now improved, so please try a few games again. Also, check out the recently added Ranked mode. Have fun guessing! ### 4/5 — Amazing game *2024-09-13, version 1.3.0* . ### 5/5 — Amazing *2024-08-26* I never right reviews but todays an exception 5 stars **Developer response:** Thanks for the 5-star review! ### 5/5 — It makes my booty giggle *2024-08-10, version 1.2.4* Skibidi ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Нет русского языка *2024-12-30* Нет русского языка ### 2/5 — bölge saçmalıkları *2025-06-13, version 3.2.1* asya diyorsunuz ortadoğudan ülke çıkıyor dalga mı geçiyorsunuz anlamıyorum avrupa diyonuz rusya çıkıyor ### 2/5 — Doesn’t work *2024-08-18* Whenever I go to play a game, a tutorial pops up and doesn’t have an exit button. Scrolling doesn’t work and after the tutorial pops up I have to restart the app, making the game unplayable. The website does, but it immediately tells me to use the app. **Developer response:** Hi and thanks for the review! Please try the latest version, it is now fixed! ### 2/5 — Fun game, however broken. *2024-07-25* The clues are often worthless, for instance 3 of the clues I got on today’s (7/25) game were (in order that they showed up): Country is in Europe Country is East of Ireland Country is north of Sudan So those last two clues are basically worthless because that describes literally every European country?? So kinda makes it not as fun when the clues are very obviously not thought or or organized at all ### 3/5 — Pusula *2025-09-25, version 3.3.1* Ülkeleri tahmin ederken kıtaların hangi yerlerinde oldukları çok yanlış belirtiliyor. Ayrıca daha çok ülke eklerseniz güzel olur!! ### 3/5 — Lots of bugs *2025-07-04* Title. The most prominent bug is when you zoom in, the game will zoom in well, but it will also choose a country your finger landed on. One time, when twisted mode was new, I was about to get the world record, but my finger landed on Albania, and then brush tooled across to Ukraine, choosing 8 countries. Then you also have a leaderboard issue. If you get a perfect 149,990 in twisted, and then a perfect 99,990 in normal, you only get the twisted WR, and it doesn’t count the normal score. ### 3/5 — Great game, needs optimization *2025-01-19* Look the app is fun, it’s a great puzzle game, but for an app that does like 4 things I don’t know why it has to overheat my phone so much. That and it just absolutely drains my battery. If not for these reasons, I wouldn’t have anything negative to say about it. ### 3/5 — The game is simple and well made except for *2024-05-17* one flaw. It is barely even possible to click on micro nations like Andorra on a mobile device no matter how hard you try. It always assumes that you clicked a bigger neighbouring countries. It is an issue for smaller nations already such as Luxembourg but with micro nations it becomes next to impossible. **Developer response:** Hi, and thanks for the review! Please try the latest version (1.1.0), where it is fixed, and you can zoom in and tap smaller countries too. If you find it works, please consider updating your rating. Thanks again for the feedback! ### 3/5 — Unplayable *2024-05-16* It’s impossible to pick micro nations **Developer response:** Hi, and thanks for the review! Please try the latest version (1.1.0), where it is fixed, and you can zoom in and tap smaller countries too. If you find it works, please consider updating your rating. Thanks again for the feedback! ### 3/5 — It’s fun, but needs some work. *2024-05-15* I’ve played about 20 or so rounds of the game so far and it is enjoyable, but it’s impossible to tap on smaller nations like Andorra, The Gambia, and Singapore. So if those nations are what you’re looking for it’s impossible to win. Which has happened to me twice already. **Developer response:** Hi, and thanks for the review! Please try the latest version (1.1.0), where it is fixed, and you can zoom in and tap smaller countries too. If you find it works, please consider updating your rating. Thanks again for the feedback! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — 😍😍amazing *2026-06-13* I will play this for hours It’s so addicting ### 5/5 — Ciyaar la yaab leh! *2026-05-17* Ciyaartani aad bay u fiican tahay!
