RIP *2019-09-16* No support response. No payouts. Prizes were lowered. Point system messed up awarding points to those who didn’t even play. VIP point boost unfair to other players. What was once my favorite game has been abandoned. **Developer response:** Sphinx likes you've enjoyed playing. Probably you are the one who has been able to win the game of knowledge? Hah, good for you. A lot of features from Sphinx are yet to come, so stay tuned. ### 4/5 — Stop giving VIP point handicaps *2019-05-18* It’s a fun game. But it’s unfair to allow VIP users to have major advantage. So I think you should improve by removing the points handicap for VIP members, or adding more weekly winners. Response to your note: Look, I still think it’s unfair to allow VIP major advantage. One of the weeks, I came in 4th, and since then I’m frustrated that the guy had more points than me, despite that I WON MORE GAMES THAN HIM! End the handicap please. **Developer response:** Hi there, Sphinx appreciates your feedback. It's true, VIP users have an advantage in boosted experience points for their membership. But have you considered an investment into membership? It may be pretty viable as due to the absence of very high competition you may be able to quickly recover your investment. Still, even without the membership in case of consistent playing, there are decent chances to win the Weekly Prices. Thanks for being a part of Sphinx's Kingdom of Knowledge. Sphinx ### 4/5 — Stop invoicing me *2019-05-17* I really do like the app. But I have concerns regarding to things. Hope you will fix it soon. First, I have already paid for Lifetime Premium subscription. But you have still sending invoice for 4.99 for weekly subscription. Secondly, when will you finish Grand Masters’ questions? Still saying Coming soon ### 3/5 — Glitched And campers *2019-04-28* Love your game,but almost impossible to win!!! You give your campers way too much of a point advantage,so by mid-week there is no point playing anymore!! And you glitch people out and steal their lives which pretty much also finishes you for week!!! And you never answer your feedback or attempt to return stolen lives or points! I still think your game in itself is the best! Except for the unfair scoring!!! Cesspool **Developer response:** Hi Cesspool, Sphinx appreciates your feedback. It's true, campers have an advantage in boosted experience points for their membership. But have you considered an investment into membership? It may be pretty viable as due to the absence of very high competition you may be able to quickly recover your investment. Still, even without membership, there is a point of playing all weekly games as you may earn additional coins by answering questions and getting new levels. So there will be an advantage in terms of booster for a new week. Isn't it a nice strategy? :) Thanks for being a part of Sphinx's Kingdom of Knowledge. Sphinx ### 1/5 — P2p *2019-04-08, version 1.4.4* Pay to play ### 1/5 — It steals your money!!!! *2019-02-26, version 1.4.3* This app will take money from you without telling you anything about it, avoid it! ### 1/5 — Trash app. *2019-02-12* This is a trash app that pays next to nothing and has more ads than tolerable. They boast about no long winded hosts then slam you with ads. It’s garbage and it’s best to stay away from this app. **Developer response:** Have you seen there are live quizzes? You haven't probably even tried to play. There are no ads during live quizzes and the same has been clearly stated in the app description. And yes, offline mode with thousands of trivia questions contain ads, but at the same time users receive decent benefits: a) the ability to get prepared for live quizzes; b) the ability to earn free coins, buy boosters and use them during live quizzes to have a better performance. By the way, there is an option to remove ads as well. Sphinx ### 1/5 — Don’t install This! *2019-01-28, version 1.3.11* After I Deleted This app, it continued charging me and taking money from my bank account without my approval. Please stop doing that! Not Ok! I reported This to Apple! ### 4/5 — Sound *2019-01-23* Hi, nice app, but can you make it so you can turn the music and sound effects off for people who have Spotify running in background? **Developer response:** Hi there, thanks for the valid point. It's already in the process of development and will be released soon. Upd. Sphinx has just released the 1.4 version where you can turn off the music and sounds in the Menu. Enjoy! ### 1/5 — Help!! I can’t cancel the trial! *2019-01-17* Please can you cancel my trial or unsubscribe me? I cannot find this option anywhere! Help! **Developer response:** Hi there, check out the Apple's guide on subscription cancellation: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202039. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Does Not Work Or Open *2026-03-08* Does Not Work Or Open ### 1/5 — Huh oh *2025-12-30* Why this game in the App Store if it doesn’t work. I can’t sign in or through Facebook. ### 1/5 — App *2024-03-16* Please update this app ### 1/5 — Don’t work *2024-03-14* Can’t even login or even play as a guest ### 1/5 — I downloaded the app and it says forbidden. *2024-02-19* I downloaded the app for the first time and tried to sign up with my email address and it says “forbidden” and won’t let me start. This makes no sense. It’s a waste of time to load an app that you can’t even try out. It just keeps saying “forbidden” it’s a good email address too. ### 1/5 — Only giving one star *2021-05-01* Some of the questions are so long time you read it the timer runs out before you can answer the question. Fix this Not every one reads or comprehends as fast as others so they read slower ### 1/5 — Make it free *2020-11-13* Why can’t this be free? ### 1/5 — You have to pay to get payed *2020-08-19* You have to pay a subscription to get payed ### 1/5 — Money *2020-03-01* No one wins anything anyways ### 1/5 — Why *2020-02-25* Why we have to pay to win so called free cash. That’s outta order man ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Heather *2020-02-20* You win real money ### 5/5 — Sphinx: A Modern Classic *2019-07-08, version 1.4.4* The game is well-made.
