It used to be free which was great then they had a low one time fee. Now they want to charge 4.99 a week? That’s ridiculous. ### 4/5 — Disappointed but understanding *2025-04-01, version 4.05* I paid for the ad removal a while ago and have enjoyed playing this with my wife for many years. I opened the app today only to find out it’s now $4.99/week and apparently my previous payment meant nothing. Hope this can be resolved! Update: the developer contacted me and helped find a temporary solution. Still don’t like the subscription model (especially $4.99/week, that’s steep) for this type of app but can understand that’s where most services are going now days. My wife and I play quite often and have enjoyed the app for years!. ### 3/5 — Lisez la description avant de télécharger *2024-12-21* Une application qui limite son utilisation à seulement 20 mots avant d’imposer un abonnement pour continuer à jouer, c’est tout simplement abusé. Ils auraient dû l’annoncer clairement dès le départ, plutôt que de miser sur la gratuité pour augmenter les téléchargements et attirer un maximum de personnes, juste pour les pousser à payer ensuite. Edit : le développer de l’application m’a répondu en m’affirmant qu’il allait faire en sorte d’être plus transparent concernant l’abonnement. Edit 2 : Merci d’avoir pris le temps de me répondre. **Developer response:** Merci de votre patience et d'avoir mis à jour votre avis ! Nous nous efforçons d'être toujours plus clairs sur notre modèle d'abonnement. Si vous avez d'autres suggestions ou questions, n'hésitez pas à nous contacter à mail@redapemobile.com. ### 3/5 — Rapidité !! *2024-08-16* J’ai l’impression que ça va un peu vite!! **Developer response:** Merci pour votre retour ! Le chronomètre est là pour pimenter le défi et créer cette ambiance de jeu effrénée ! 😄 Nous restons à votre écoute pour toute suggestion à mail@redapemobile.com. ### 4/5 — Good but *2024-07-21, version 3.22* I wish you could play by yourself but It’s still fun and I love it ### 2/5 — Instructions *2024-04-30, version 3.22* I do not get this game please put instructions ### 2/5 — Sehr schlechte Qualität *2021-02-16* Nachdem ich die App gekauft habe da man durch das Werbungsnirvana nicht durch kommt, durfte ich feststellen, dass die App die Punkte nicht korrekt zählt und wir somit mit Stift und Papier selbst zählen mussten. Eine Erstattung wurde verneint somit habe ich eine weitere App Leiche in meiner Bibliothek. Sehr schade, ein so simples Spiel doch so schlecht umzusetzen und dann so viel dafür zu verlangen. **Developer response:** Das tut uns sehr leid. Seit Ihrer Bewertung wurde die App komplett überarbeitet: Werbung wurde vor Jahren entfernt und die Punktezählung funktioniert nun einwandfrei. Wir hoffen, Sie geben uns noch eine Chance! Fragen gerne an mail@redapemobile.com. ### 4/5 — Recommend, need more “variety” *2021-01-25, version 3.14.0* I pull this game out a lot, we don’t do teams and score it’s just fun to pass around and take turns guessing. I even paid the $1.99 or whatever to get the ad free version. I’ve had a lot of people ask me what it is so they can download themselves. My ONLY complaint it’s the list of words doesn’t update (or updates rarely?) so if you play it too much you get super familiar with them and it loses some of the challenge. There are a ton of different apps that are a version of Taboo/Tabu, but my roommate says she can’t find one she likes as much as this one! ### 1/5 — Worst app ever *2020-06-29, version 3.11.0* Can’t even close the ads ### 1/5 — Can you connect with friends who aren’t with you? *2020-05-02, version 3.8.1* Is there a way to connect and play with friend s you know who aren’t in the same room? Be a great game to play in isolation!!! And the words you have aren’t super childish like like other versions. Would like to play together though separated. ### 1/5 — Thumbs down!! *2020-03-31, version 3.8* You basically have to pay for an AD free game cuz its going to keep popping up if you dont . I deleted the app. Would've been a good game otherwise trash ### 1/5 — No good *2020-02-23, version 3.8* Prefer the app Forbidden as a Taboo replacement. You get what you pay for. ### 4/5 — Cool *2020-02-04* Cool ### 2/5 — Repeat words *2019-12-27, version 3.7* It’s really nice that there are over 1700 words, but there’s nothing to prevent cards from repeating quickly in a game. The game seems to just pick words completely at random without excluding previously selected ones. This pretty much ruins the game - we had to institute a rule to immediately skip any repeats. ### 1/5 — A lot of ads *2019-07-13, version 3.5* Simmer down ads ### 3/5 — I don’t understand *2019-02-16, version 3.3* How does it work ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Paid for Ad Free *2026-08-26, version 4.54.0* I paid for ad removal a few years ago and now I’m being asked to sign up for a subscription. Restoring purchase doesn’t do anything. ### 1/5 — Boooo *2026-08-10, version 4.52.0* It is for money when you download ### 1/5 — $5 dollars per month!? *2025-03-23, version 4.05* Seriously, who need another monthly subscription?? If the game was good, I’d be willing to pay up to twenty dollars once for the game, but since it is subscription only, you get nothing! Already deleted it without even playing one game. ### 1/5 — Wants subscription *2024-11-12, version 3.25* Terrible ### 1/5 — The ads tho *2024-03-24, version 3.22* i cant with these ads they block me from playing the game ### 1/5 — Terrible *2024-03-24, version 3.22* Such a poorly made app and so many ads. Can’t change the settings because it just keeps giving me ads. ### 1/5 — Game gone bad *2024-02-13* This game is for baby’s I am 9 years old and I downloaded it but then can’t delete it don’t play if you you are 5or older ### 1/5 — ???? *2023-07-22, version 3.20* I don’t get this game at all, it doesn’t tell you how to play. ### 1/5 — Used to be free *2023-06-23, version 3.20* 1min long games behind paywall Big L ### 1/5 — Stupid game *2021-04-22, version 3.14.0* There is no logic to this and it is a complete waste of time ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — So much fun! *2025-04-01, version 4.05* This game is an absolute blast! Perfect for game nights with friends and family. The word challenges keep everyone engaged and laughing. Highly recommend! ### 5/5 — This is a really great game *2020-02-05* This is a really great game ### 5/5 — Sehr gut *2019-10-06* Sehr viele, gute Begriffe. Einfach in den Flugmodus gehen, dann gibts auch keine Werbung... ### 5/5 — Good *2017-05-11, version 2.1.3* I think this app is good ### 5/5 — GOOd *2017-05-09* Bonne ambiance ### 5/5 — Great game *2017-04-25, version 2.1.3* Great game ### 5/5 — Jogo muito divertido *2017-04-24* Jogo irado ### 5/5 — V good *2017-04-17, version 2.1.3* V V good ### 5/5 — Fun *2017-04-12, version 2.1.3* GREATEST GAME EVER!!!! Great way to pass the time if you are at work! ### 5/5 — Here for 10 minutes free *2017-04-06, version 2.1.3* Ayyeeee --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
