I love it, there needs to be more game shows or at least more constant game shows though to keep this alive. I would love to see this become more popular! ### 2/5 — Needs to be more flexible *2026-05-01* I understand it’s supposed to be one day at a special time but i have come back each Friday just for it to tell me at 8pm that there is no game and go wait for the next game. The ONE time i was able to play my random partner left in the middle and I couldn’t continue the game and had waited all that time to not even qualify for the prize. Update: same situation nothing had changed and i’ve waited 2 weeks for a game to tell me it will happen next week when im unable to play that time ### 2/5 — Needs to be more flexible *2026-01-23, version 1.37* I understand it’s supposed to be one day at a special time but i have come back each Friday just for it to tell me at 8pm that there is no game and go wait for the next game. The ONE time i was able to play my random partner left in the middle and I couldn’t continue the game and had waited all that time to not even qualify for the prize. ### 4/5 — Enjoyable *2025-08-02* This game is enjoyable. I haven’t won yet, but I’m eager doing it’s helpful in the fact that it helps me to be able to think on my toes and be quick about it. I’m sure I will win one day. I think it’s just a cool app all around I think it’s a cool concept on how it connects people from various places who think similarly. And of course it does pick people who think opposite of you and it really just shows you how well you work with others who don’t think just like you but in a way, they obviously do cause I mean there’s 1 million puzzles and 1 million different personalities but there’s only one right answer And I like that about this app ### 2/5 — No partners… *2025-07-19* Good concept but I’ve logged in 2 weeks in a row and it always says my partner disconnected. I don’t like that it doesn’t even take my score ### 1/5 — No notification *2025-05-02* I have had this downloaded about 2 or 3 months n i missed every single one go to check it today Friday may 2nd n it saids no game tonight nexts game Friday may 9th 😴 I just wanna try it ### 5/5 — Good, but bad randoms *2025-03-01* I love how the games are and how we're paired, but sometimes their just bad players and take too long. Doesn't take away the excitement and rush of adrenaline though ### 5/5 — Amazing! *2025-03-01* Very fun game. Love the concept! ### 5/5 — Je joue depuis le beta *2025-02-01, version 1.24* Je joue à se jeu depuis plus d’un an. C’est hyper facile à résoudre les puzzle et gagner une carte cadeau. J’ai gagner près de 150$. ### 5/5 — A message to the developers *2024-12-27, version 1.24* I like the concept of your game, but I think the problem lies in how often the game is played what if instead of it just being one time on Friday. it's three times a day. Every day. And then get rid of the cash prize and just make it like a reward on your profile. And then when people see their friends playing this game to be like, what game is that? And then I'll explain the concept and to make money on the game add profile, icons and frames that you either have to watch an ad or pay money to get ## Frequently asked questions about Paired ### What is this app about?
