### 3/5 — Too many correct answers marked wrong

*2026-02-09, version 2.1.0*

I’m playing right now and the question is “movies set in nyc” and when I put “sex and the city” and “New York minute” and neither is accepted. There weren’t any typos or anything and that’s not the first time either. This has happened so many times, at least 1 out of 5 questions. It seems like any questions that has answers before 2000 are always wrong, like whoever responsible for fact checking the answers just gave up when they got to the year 2000 and didn’t look further back.

### 3/5 — It’s good, but…

*2025-09-27, version 2.0.0*

This “new” trivia game is good, but I don’t understand why they didn’t just make a new app instead of using the old scategories app. Especially when the reviews of that old game weren’t all too positive. I also personally much preferred the old game in spite of all its flaws.

### 2/5 — Scattergoires replacement?

*2025-09-10, version 2.0.0*

I was confused to see this changed app on my phone. The name and look completely. I wonder if the app got int copy right issue with the board game. Can someone answer this? I’m sure I’m not the only one to realize this.

### 3/5 — Great game

*2024-12-26, version 1.8.2*

It’s a great game and super fun! I love all the different game models and play it almost every day. The problem is it has bad glitches occasionally. I’ve had it glitch where half of the words just don’t appear and I had to end up deleting the app to get it to work. Other than that it’s great! The ads are minimal!

### 3/5 — Fun but glitchy

*2024-12-15, version 1.8.2*

Love the game and look. But it freezes/stops and scores my answers as misspelled.

### 3/5 — Fun, but unfortunately very buggy :(

*2024-12-02, version 1.8.2*

I love the game and I have to admit it can be very addicting at times, but I can’t get around the fact that I can maybe get 5-6 games in before either the game entirely crashes, the screen freezes, the audio cuts out, gets stuck in a reconnecting loop, or it still puts me through a barrage of ads even though I paid the $3.99 for no ads! I’m honestly very disappointed with the game because it has so much potential, but so very many bugs the developers need to work out.

### 1/5 — This app is so bad

*2024-11-06, version 1.8.2*

The game of Scattergories is fun, but not having a real friend feature is one of the most blatant sins this app version has. There are tons of ads unless you’re willing to pay, and there’s no game history, and the navigation is incredibly obtuse.

### 2/5 — Cheats

*2024-10-31, version 1.8.2*

This game cheats all the time. Like I just did one and it was flowers. Letter j. I wrote jonquil. Correct word, correct spelling. It flagged it as dispute. It flags words all the time that I spelled correctly but it changes the spelling. I still win all the time but it's not fun when the computer cheats!!

### 2/5 — Won't open anymore

*2024-10-23, version 1.8.2*

I would leave a message to support in the app if it would open. I have deleted and reinstalled many times.

### 2/5 — Help

*2024-10-21, version 1.8.2*

Please update your app. I just tried to play and it wouldn’t put anything in the blank with the other players

### 4/5 — Good game! Repetitive Categories

*2024-10-08, version 1.8.2*

I like the shorter time and fewer prompts (basically they’re half games) but they get very repetitive if you play for more than 15 mins.

### 3/5 — fun but frustratingly buggy

*2024-10-06, version 1.8.2*

i love scattergories, this app version is so-so. while the gameplay is fun enough and seeing other players advance adds an element of pressure that would typically be supplied by the timer in the physical version of the game, the bugs take all that away. it seems that with every challenge i start, it’s a 50/50 shot that the round will take my coins but then load indefinitely before getting to the results screen. i can take it if i lose, but the indefinite loading means i never get to see how i stack up, and i lose the coins nonetheless. if you can’t build a game that lets you get to see the results and be rewarded, at least make it so you can get your coins back for an incomplete game. like all apps of this type, it relies on giving us that dopamine boost when we win to get us addicted. so this bug not only ruins the fun of the competition, but also breaks the very way this game gets you to play.

### 4/5 — Great game, a little buggy sometimes

*2024-09-29, version 1.8.2*

Super addicting and fun game. The AI behind the scoring can be a little glitchy at times, which sometimes affects the scores and sometimes doesn’t. For example, I gave the answer “island parrot” once, trying to be creative. It changed my answer to “the correct spelling for this answer is I-S-L-A-N-D P-A-R-R-O-T” but it still gave me points. And sometimes answers that should cancel each other out don’t do so because someone put an s at the end or something similar. But otherwise, it is a great game!

### 3/5 — chapters

*2024-09-08, version 1.8.2*

when is the next chapter coming out? ive waited for years

### 2/5 — 2/5 because…

*2024-08-26, version 1.8.2*

They want $8 a month to go add free.  Maybe a one time payment of $10 but $2 a week is ridiculously expensive for an educational leisure game.  I can buy and play the real game for less money with a better scoring system.   Plus there is no dice roll simulation they just give you a number. I wanna see that dice tumble if I’m paying for it.

### 2/5 — fun but..

*2024-08-24, version 1.8.2*

it’s fun and a great game but the waiting to get more coins is so stupid

### 2/5 — Made up answers are acceptable ☹️

*2024-08-22, version 1.8.2*

A lot of people have already mentioned most of my concerns. But one thing that  made me delete thisapp for the2nd time is that you can just make up answers and they will be accepted. For example, I cannot name any recording labels, so I just make them up and they are always accepted and sometimes deemed rare. Of course they are, because I made them up! Thumbs up for giving me undeserved credit, but the downside is my opponent is doing the same thing.

### 3/5 — Used to be good

*2024-08-20, version 1.8.2*

This app used to be good, but recently it doesn’t work properly. It doesn’t show words and in general looks like a dying app.

### 1/5 — TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE

*2024-08-17, version 1.8.2*

Game was fun but somehow I’m no longer able to connect to fb. Lost all progress and friends. Customer service refuses to responded after almost 4 months. I have tried at least six attempts. No longer a game I choose to try to play.  Set unfortunate and disappointing…

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Scattergories was better

*2026-07-05, version 2.1.0*

I loved this game so I decided to give the updated version a try and it sucks. Bad. I thought I would like it and at first I did and then it started crashing, it wouldn’t save my name, I couldn’t challenge new people and so many other issues. I wish they would just go back to scattergories it was so much better.

### 1/5 — Scattegories??

*2026-05-24, version 2.1.0*

What the heck happened with the scattegories app? I updated the app and now it is a completely different app, name, interface, everything.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-03-15, version 2.1.0*

This was fun for MAYBE all of 2 min. Until the 1st 2 rounds ended and I tried to play another round only to get “system error” over and over and over and over… deleting immediately

### 1/5 — Different app with 2.0.0 update (no longer Scattegories)

*2025-09-25, version 2.0.0*

The developers of this app, formerly Scattegories, apparently decided to change it to something completely different for the 2.0.0 version. So updating the existing app completely changes the app. They should have released a different app, rather than pulling the rug out on existing app users who can no longer play the Scattegories app they previously got from them.

### 1/5 — I didn’t download this but it’s on my phone

*2025-09-24, version 2.0.0*

It’s kinda fun but I don’t know how it got on my phone. Also the answers sometimes seem arbitrarily chosen.

### 1/5 — Shady App & Name Change

*2025-09-17, version 2.0.0*

This was scattergories but sometime in the last few days totally changed to a new app.

### 1/5 — What is this?

*2025-09-14, version 2.0.0*

Confused why I had this random game appear on my phone that I did not download. This isn’t scategories anymore. Why did you change it? I don’t want this game.

### 1/5 — Changed the game without notice

*2025-09-11, version 2.0.0*

This used to be Scattergories and the developers changed it to “that’s so trivia” without notifying users.

### 1/5 — Not for groups

*2024-12-24, version 1.8.2*

Can only play with 1 other person. Ruined Xmas eve because the whole group couldn’t play at the same time

### 1/5 — Literally awful

*2024-11-13, version 1.8.2*

You can’t see your partners answers, there’s no real voting system, you can answer with absolutely anything and it will count it as long as the letter is correct. There’s no rhyme or reason to it. Also the layout of the game is just bad, an off-putting design that does not make me want to stick around and play. 
They aren’t categories that can be answered either. “Island hotspots”? I don’t know what to answer for that even without letter restrictions.
