There is no option to send feedback on missed terms either which is the most frustrating part. Basically the bigger your vocabulary is the more you are penalized because they claim that the words don't exist. It is not about spelling, the word is literally treated as if it's not a word at all. Name a job - aircraft painter? Not a job Name an instrument - soprano violin? Not an instrument Just a few easy examples. Paid to remove the ads because I was enjoying it but this stuff happens and now I am regretting paying for a low comprehension half dictionary. ### 3/5 — Bugs that need fixed *2026-08-21, version 30.0.0* Cardiologist is a profession, Socrates is a name that starts with S, and Saint Bernard isn’t wrong spelling for the dog breed st is shorthand for saint and street. ### 3/5 — Needs updating *2026-08-18, version 30.0.0* I really do enjoy this game, I don’t really care about the ads and what nots, but your possible answer pool needs to be updated, Question: name a cartoon character I wrote: Lisa Simpson, “Wrong did you mean Bart Simpson?” Like wth? Also name a popular tea or herbal infusion brand and apparently “Lipton” is wrong, which is a globally popular brand ### 3/5 — It is false sometimes *2026-08-09, version 29.0.1* Sometimes when I know I get the answer right it says I did not ### 3/5 — Pretty good however… *2026-08-05, version 28.3.4* This app is pretty good and really fun to play, however i put in correct answers and it says they are wrong! For example there was a question that asked Name a Taylor Swift song and I put cruel summer and it said it was wrong! Please fix this as soon as you can! ### 2/5 — Needs an update *2026-08-01, version 28.3.4* Like the game, but needs an update. As of writing this, it has never heard of binge and the waxed lightly weathered cut copper stair. ### 1/5 — Incessant Ads *2026-07-30, version 28.3.4* This could be such a fun game, and I would play it all the time if it were not for the stupid amount of ads, including several during gameplay. I really wanted to like this. However, it’s getting deleted as it is not worth the hassle of all the ads. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2026-07-30, version 28.3.4* Ads make it unplayable ### 1/5 — To many ads *2026-07-30, version 28.3.4* Like why does there have to be an ad after everything you do. It’s actually ridiculous. Give us a break ### 1/5 — Too Many Ads *2026-07-30, version 28.3.4* One round has SIX ads. ### 4/5 — … *2026-07-28, version 28.3.4* Really fun game but has such a small dictionary. Most answers given are correct but not in the games dictionary which takes away from the fun of it. ### 1/5 — TOO MANY ADS!!! *2026-07-27, version 28.3.4* this game was really good a few years ago, however yesterday i remembered it and decided to download it again. turns out there is a 60s ad usually 1-2 of them after every 3 questions. also most answers seem to be wrong when they arent. ### 1/5 — Longest Ads ever *2026-07-26, version 28.3.4* The ads are over a minute long and unskippable. You spend more time watching ads than actually playing the game. Writing this review to save you the time and deleting the game right after. Every game has ads but I havent had to deal with them being ridiculously long until this one. ### 3/5 — Add more vocabulary *2026-07-24, version 28.3.3* There’s ALOT of ads and when you type in words your know are correct or words that would fit perfectly with the category you get it wrong but it is a little fun ### 3/5 — Game *2026-07-21, version 28.3.3* It’s a good game but whenever I get like a word spelt wrong it said do you mean this and for yes it says to watch a video so I pressed yes and I had to watch a video for five minutes and it said that I died because I didn’t watch the video and I watched it for five minutes so five minutes was wasted. ### 1/5 — Ads *2026-07-19, version 28.3.3* Do not get this game. And ad every single sencond. Had to watch five ads to do ONE round. Very annoying. Anything to make money I guess instead of making it fun ### 1/5 — Lots of “wrong” answers *2026-07-19, version 28.3.3* Awful game. Marked “minestrone” as wrong for a type of soup. “David Beckham” as wrong for a famous sports person or athlete. There are many other correct answers is says are incorrect. Will be deleting it shortly. Don’t waste your time downloading it ### 1/5 — So many ads *2026-07-19, version 28.3.3* Wow this game was fun at first but it’s ridiculous how many advertisements you have to watch hench one star it just angers me ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — GIANT SQUID *2026-09-02, version 30.0.2* GIANT SQUIDS LIVE IN THE OCEAN WHY DIDNT YOU COUNT THAT ### 1/5 — Wtf *2026-08-28, version 30.0.2* The first round I played against Adolf from Germany and I know that was a bit ### 1/5 — Absaloutely horrible *2026-08-24, version 30.0.0* It removed regular answers like snakes and ladders Zara hersheys. ### 1/5 — Rigged *2026-08-16, version 29.0.1* Bots can type anything just random letters and it will accept it, but apparently tuscany is no longer in italy. Cheating, lame game. Ads after every single round. Can’t stand when pure stupidity is allowed in these games. Do better. ### 1/5 — Stupid *2026-08-16, version 29.0.1* Counts many correct answers as wrong. Really limited. Concept is great. Execution is poor. ### 1/5 — Qatar is next to Russia *2026-08-11, version 29.0.1* Seriously mad answers! I’ve lost count of the amount of times I’ve had to report a missing answer. Just now the question was Name a Country next to Russia. One of the correct answers, somehow, was Qatar! Not even the same continent! ### 1/5 — Questions are often, vague and answers are often incorrect *2026-08-10, version 29.0.1* Like the title says. I’ve found that it will ask a question like name a common flower I said petunia the other player says aspen Petunias are more common but I get the x they get the win. Also, long jump is an Olympic event and I got that wrong according to the game. Other correct answers are marked as incorrect. I uninstalled due to the lack of a dictionary. This is one example but if the game isn’t ready for release because the developers do not know enough vocabulary words perhaps don’t release it until you borrow a dictionary. I have decided to cocreate a competitor game with the help of my 18 year old daughter who is in programming. ### 1/5 — trash *2026-08-07, version 29.0.1* This game was awesome but then i started getting a lot of correct answers and it marked it wrong, ( i wrote black pepper on condiments ) and the npc got things that were wrong correct. Please fix this ### 1/5 — Ridiculous answers *2026-08-04, version 28.3.4* Q: Name a U.S. city that has a subway system. My answer - New York. WRONG! How?? Q: Name an artist who has been inducted into the Hall of Fame. My answer: David Bowie. WRONG? How?? Going to delete because I lose so many games due to questionable answers. ### 1/5 — Not accurate *2026-08-02, version 28.3.4* It said to put a Pokémon and I put crabominable and it said it wasn’t a Pokémon and I died this game is trash ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Best game/app ever and is in category but a few suggestions *2026-06-28, version 28.3.0* This is a pretty good app for all ages but this game needs a few suggestions and one suggestions is that you should add that when ever you win a round of text or die you go to the next couple of rounds like probably more tournaments for us to do and another suggestions is that you should make each round with different backgrounds like for example one background for the next round should be a Minecraft background and another background for the third round should be Mario background and the last/overall suggestions is that you should make all skins free ### 5/5 — Add *2026-06-18, version 28.2.13* Add the answer ,Nintendoswitch2” ### 5/5 — Sucks *2026-05-23, version 28.2.11* This games sucks this is pretty good ### 5/5 — I love this game *2026-03-28, version 28.2.3* I’m very addicted to this game and I play it every now and then and then. ### 5/5 — Charlotte und Noel (og master) *2025-11-18, version 25.0.3* Wir ind su zufriede mit dem game. Echt utze ### 5/5 — THE BEST EVER *2025-11-12, version 25.0.2* This is the best ever ### 5/5 — Too much ads!! *2025-11-12, version 25.0.2* Literally there’s ad every time I type smth ### 5/5 — 5 stars isn’t real. *2025-11-06, version 24.47.9* I’m only giving this 5 stars so people actually see it. I spent money on no ads. I purchased no ads. Yet IM STILL GETTING ADS. Someone spending their money for a no ads feature and for them to not take the ads away, is 100% without a doubt UNETHICAL AND MORALLY WRONG. There is something wrong with these developers of this game. Ridiculous. If only I could get my money back. I WILL NEVER DOWNLOAD ANYTHING FROM THIS DEVELOPER AGAIN, THEY ARE UNETHICAL AND THEY ARE LIARS. ### 5/5 — Sorry *2025-11-01, version 24.47.8* Hi I’m sorry to the makers of this game I didn’t mean to report a missing answer ### 5/5 — NOT THE BEST! *2025-10-18, version 24.47.7* Here are the ups and downs. We’re gonna start with the downs. There are a lot of ads sometimes if you put the right answer, it will say that it’s wrong and it pauses in between the game to tell you that you made it to the next level, which I do not like. The ups I can’t really think of one up except for that it’s just an OK game. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
