### 3/5 — Store is always empty

*2026-07-25, version 1.23.0*

There are sooooo many outfits in the drag race global platforms and yet the store is constantly empty of outfits to buy. It has been months of consistent empty tabs. The only time outfits come up is when there is a monthly event. Please add more outfits and make the maxi challenge tabs more attainable to achieve.

### 3/5 — desperately needs UI overhaul!

*2026-07-03, version 1.22.0*

I like this game! There is new free content coming out all the time and I love the representation of different queens we get. The watchable ads are all beneficial enough and it’s fun to collect the clothing and put outfits together.

The popups are semi-heinous, in that they can be invasive of gameplay but can immediately be closed. Always, these are asking for $15-25 for, in my opinion, not NEARLY enough rewards for the amount you’d be spending. 

The monthly season pass is the only one I would remotely consider, but I only ever get about a week into the month before running out of rewards. Then 3 weeks to wait. For refresh. The rewards that we do get, however, are great!

The game is also REALLY lacking a social element. Similar games like SuitU have a much more interactive aspect. Some of my friends & family play this game as well, so we are in a haus together. But there is no messaging, no tooting each others’ outfits, nothing.

3.5/5

### 2/5 — Glitched out!

*2026-06-30, version 1.22.0*

I payed for a pride pass & event last Monday and today.. both times the game glitched and I was unable to play or collect prizes. Can you either fix it please or give me my dosh back.

### 3/5 — Game won’t open

*2026-06-25, version 1.22.0*

I’ve been playing for three years and this week the game has crashed every time I try to open it

### 4/5 — Fun and decent enough

*2026-06-19, version 1.22.0*

Ads take up a lot of time buuut I don’t feel inclined to buy any of the extra stuff with real money. Keeps one preoccupied

### 2/5 — Many issues

*2026-05-28, version 1.22.0*

Items that aren't meant to overlap overlap. Parts of dresses that aren't mean to be seen once shoes are applied remain on top of the shoe. Some of these items have been in this game for years and the fact they still haven't been fixed is honestly pretty pathetic. Certain items only fit the smallest body type.

So many recolors are painfully monochrome, with a lack of depth and highlights. The fact that even with recolors I can't recolor anything black is insane, as it's such a basic color. 

The events continue to get worse. They were already impossible to finish unless you spend the entire time period focused on the app, and now I have to upgrade a single character over and over again? Yikes! Completely stole the measly morsels of fun from them.

The event rewards are garbage. Why should only one of the few people who tried get any actual reward at all? Why should second place essentially be punished for putting in all that work and getting nothing? The same goes for literally every place 1-10, like why put in any werk if the game is going to give me the same rewards as someone who clicked just a few times.

I also don't really appreciate being harassed about purchasing one of the hundreds of overpriced packs that plague the sides of the screen. 

Many of the drawings for makeup are poorly done, and many that aren't still don't sit on the faces correctly. It's incredibly obvious that not one person bothered to try many of the items/makeups to see how they work.  If you're not gonna test something, don't add it to the game.

The character bases are lacking. Not everyone has the same nose. 

The WerkRoom and the event versions regularly quit working entirely so the app has to be restarted. XP bonuses are inconsistent, and also will quit working like the rest of the workroom.

When selecting for challenges, rarely does it register who I actually selected as an opponent. And too often, you don't even really get a choice bc it is deliberately set up for you to watch multiple ads or just lose.

Lastly, what are these themes? What does "this is the way" mean? How does one dress according to that theme? Did anyone on the team think that through? And clearly I'm not the only one with issues regarding these themes as I see many, many people confused on themes, even ones I DO understand.

### 3/5 — Crashing

*2026-05-27, version 1.22.0*

I’ve played this game for almost a year and I’ve never had any issues with it and I love it! But starting February it kept crashing and I couldn’t even play it for a whole month. I redownloaded it but the Facebook link won’t work. I’ve logged into the Facebook over and over and it STILL. Will not work

### 2/5 — Many issues

### 4/5 — The events

*2026-05-05, version 1.22.0*

I love the stuff in the events but I'm guessing I'm not the only one struggling to complete them considering I only see 1-2 people complete them every event unless your a complete no life with money good luck completing the event. I feel like you should make it a little bit easier, sincerely: I assume half the people that play this game.

### 3/5 — Upgrade!

*2026-04-28, version 1.22.0*

We seriously need a lot of upgrades to this game and lower prices

### 2/5 — Impossible to win rigged challenges

*2026-04-25, version 1.22.0*

I have been playing nearly every day for about two months now. There are daily and weekly challenges that have really good rewards for the top three winners, but their scores are always impossibly high and I end up ranking 4-10 every single time.  Well, I had a high scoring outfit for this weeks challenge, about 40k points (my outfits are usually about 20k), and I was excited because I thought I’d have a chance to win this week or at least be in the top three and get good prizes. Yesterday evening I was in first place with about a million points and my closest runner up had about 500k. So imagine how surprised I was to check back 2-3 hours later and see that two “players” (not even the same runners up as before) had magically gotten millions of points in this short time and were now above me in 1st and 2nd place. This didn’t make any sense to me but I figured I would just try to stay in 3rd place. At this point it is nighttime, I have about 1.3 million points and the person in 4th has 800k, so I wasn’t too worried. So, it’s afternoon the next day, and I open the game shocked to see I am now in 4th place by 200k points. It simply doesn’t make any sense that the other “players” weren’t making those kinds of scores or rapid progress until I was in the top three. That is, unless the game is just full of bots programmed to exponentially outperform real players so they can’t get good prizes unless they pay or watch ads for more challenge tickets (and the bots are so far ahead that this wouldn’t even make a difference). It is really discouraging as someone who genuinely likes the game and plays it all the time to know that my score doesn’t matter because a bot will just end up beating it. Rigging everything is pushing real players away from this game.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Game is broken

*2026-08-11, version 1.23.0*

After one year of playing this game my game will no longer connect pass the lip sync server rendering the app useless for 5 days now, I’ve reached out to support З times with no response so I’m forced to delete this game 😩

### 1/5 — Used to be fun but not anymore

*2026-08-10, version 1.23.0*

This game used to be fun but the developers don’t bother to listen to the players who are quite loyal over the years. Now it’s the buggiest games I’ve ever played. You can report it to support all day long and no one fixes anything. The game is riddled with bots now because the good players left the game over the poor function of the game app. You are lucky to get a response from support and even when you do, it’s like a week or more to hear back from them. They literally are their own worse enemy. The ads are always messed up, things are broken on the app for extended periods of time and support does nothing. You wonder why people who have played for years are leaving. They add things to the app that no player asked for. They don’t listen to their audience and the game is just being driven into the ground.

### 1/5 — Used to be fun

*2026-07-22, version 1.23.0*

Loved this game until a few weeks ago. Now my ads and videos don’t load so I can’t get double werk or refresh the store. Fix this!

### 1/5 — thanks for letting us know where you stand

*2026-07-19, version 1.23.0*

you all have effectively ruined this game. how you even still get positive reviews is beyond me because the subreddit really highlights how much you’ve let
down the players. you prioritize changes that no player asked for or wanted, like the “claim all” button. & then go & “update the ads” & have made it clear that your agenda is increasing your profits over keeping anything that actually
made this game special & fun. 

& the fact that WOW actually
co-signs all this garbage doesn’t even surprise me with the way they’ve continually ruined RDR in general.

### 1/5 — Horrible Updates

*2026-07-17, version 1.23.0*

This game literally has the most USELESS updates ever!! Instead of actually updating the game, you guys are just making the user experience so TRASH and horrible. Like why would you guys not let us buy multiple items from the store?? Now I can’t buy or upgrade the haus store pieces nor can I upgrade the legendary piece from the T&B store because WE CANT BUY THEM!! Stop updating the game unnecessarily unless it actually needs updating because you guys are just making it worse for EVERYONE!!

### 1/5 — terrible ad issues

*2026-07-16, version 1.23.0*

everytime i try to get a boost or refresh with an ad it almost never works, double ads constantly break or freeze. i’ve had ads just simply not load at all, forcing me to restart the game and lose the reward opportunity. it’s very frustrating when everytime you try to watch an ad the game breaks

### 1/5 — “We can’t link your facebook account.”

*2026-06-07, version 1.22.0*

I decided to update the app and it completely bricked my progress. It refuses to connect my account I’ve had for years. I’ve spent actual money on this game, this is insane. During pride month??

### 1/5 — Glitchy AF

*2026-06-03, version 1.22.0*

So many glitches constantly.  Issues with logging in, connecting via Game Center or Facebook, lost data. Developers aren’t doing anything to fix it

### 1/5 — FIX THE FACEBOOK LINK. CANT RECOVER PROGRESS.

*2026-05-21, version 1.22.0*

i love this game but i recently switched from a samsung phone to an iphone and i can’t recover my progress with the facebook link option. and support won’t respond. disappointing. i’ve spent actual money on this game too.

### 1/5 — Glitchy, erases progress

*2026-05-05, version 1.22.0*

I have been a user/player in this app since the first week it was out. Every time there’s a major update, some form of my progress gets erased. With this most recent update, all of my progress was erased, and I lost $$, lipstick, gems, etc. 

They’re also seem to be bot accounts that come out of nowhere with a full host of legendary items or somehow make unattainable progress on every challenge so there’s no way to ever rank in the top three of challenges unless you spend money. 

And finally, I’ve submitted tickets about some of the issues in the past, and I almost never receive a response on issues that I submit. For example, I’ve had a challenge star that didn’t get awarded in the first couple of weeks that I’ve played, and therefore, I will never have a full set of challenge stars. There will always be one missing.

And there’s something really sinister-feeling receiving ads for conservative prayer apps on a game primarily marketed towards women and queer people.

### 5/5 — My main game

*2026-08-16, version 1.23.0*

I’ve had this game downloaded for years now and with every update I fall more and more in love with it. It’s such a fun game with a lot of things to do. They’re always coming up with new mini events and monthly rewards. One thing I appreciate is that you are never forced to watch ads or spend money to make progress in this game. You can choose to watch some ads for bonuses but your gameplay will never be interrupted.  One thing I wish would be added would be a way to turn off some of the graphics since my phone sometimes gets the battery drained.

### 5/5 — Incroyable

*2026-07-25*

Juste incroyable, on ne voit pas le temps passer on en veux toujours plus !

### 5/5 — hell yeah dude

*2026-07-17, version 1.23.0*

🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸

### 5/5 — Cool

*2026-07-09, version 1.23.0*

I don’t see a lot of things with drag, queens and Kings in them so when I saw this game, I thought it was quite interesting and when I started playing it just got funner and funner.

### 5/5 — Highly Recommend

*2026-06-13, version 1.22.0*

I’ve been playing Drag Race Superstar for over a year now and I can honestly say I’ve never gotten bored. I absolutely love this game and will continue to look forward to seeing all the Queens of the month, earning the rewards from a particular Queens monthly pass, and competing in the multiple events that happen each week. What makes this game so special and in my opinion superior to other fashion games is its simplicity and the fact you don’t have to pay to actually enjoy the game. I’ve tried to find another similar fashion game and nothing compares. All the other fashion games have one thing in common and that’s that you have to pay to enjoy the game. That and the fact that there’s always way too many currencies, outfits, and just so many things going on in general. It’s super overwhelming and I’ll most definitely be sticking to Drag Race Superstar only for the foreseeable future.

### 5/5 — Gays!

*2026-06-01, version 1.22.0*

Honestly I love this game with all my heart and happy pride month!! KISSES

### 5/5 — I love this game because it’ll let me be who I am just for a little bit cause I don’t have to write

*2026-05-29, version 1.22.0*

Love me too be queen and having a good time name .

### 5/5 — Cute

*2026-05-28, version 1.22.0*

I really like this game, I think it’s pretty cute. I’ve been playing for a little bit now, and I’m not tired of it yet 😅

### 5/5 — Rubina hotina

*2026-05-13, version 1.22.0*

It’s glamorous vs GLAMOUR! Win! Lots of buying options and nice men to work for us, super classy set up feels like being backstage! Boosting is an option with ads, and the mini games gracefully give back diamonds.  So I recommend watching at least one ad to get a boost.

### 5/5 — GOOPED AND GAGGED

*2026-04-04, version 1.21.0*

BEST GAME I HAVE EVER PLAYED
