### 1/5 — Wouldn’t load

*2026-01-03, version 1.0.3*

This would not open or load. Requesting a full refund. Waste of time.

### 1/5 — They Don’t Know Jack

*2025-12-29, version 1.0.3*

You Don’t Know Jack in this edition is horrible. They seem to have forgotten what makes YDKJ fun. There’s no time to see who got it right between rounds; the questions are indeterminiant, and the whole thing seems mean. Don’t recommend.

### 1/5 — Crashes/won’t launch

*2024-07-18, version 1.0.3*

V1.0.3 won’t open on my iPad running 15.8. It briefly shows startup screen then disappears. Please fix.

### 1/5 — Used to work but no sound now

*2023-09-02, version 1.0.1*

Can’t play a trivia game I can’t hear……

### 1/5 — Add bots

*2022-08-03, version 1.0.1*

YOU NEED TO GET BOTS RIPPING OFF PEOPLE??

### 1/5 — Can’t make the audio work :(

*2022-01-22, version 1.0.1*

Love this game but can’t make the audio work and support is non existent.

### 1/5 — No volume!

*2021-08-15, version 1.0.1*

This is so frustrating, paid a lot of money for nothing.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2021-04-17, version 1.0.1*

I love Patently Stupid because of al, the stupid things you can do. I like Split The Room, idk why, it’s just fun. Rapping Robots is a great concept, and is great in and of itself, that’s why I like Mad Verse City.

### 1/5 — Not what we expected

*2020-12-18, version 1.0.1*

From the description, I thought my wife and I could play this together with two iPads. It does not appear to work. After a few failed tries to start a game we can’t understand why Apple continues to let this company sell this on their store.   We are trying to get our money back.   I urge you not to waste you money on this rather expensive app.

### 2/5 — Right out the box, problems with no sound

*2020-03-01, version 1.0.1*

Downloaded the new version 5 on my iPad that connects to my apple tv. Version 4 on the same setup works fine. This V5 loads and has no sound at all, and so i have yet to play any games. Yes, I've checked my volume on the iPad, game settings and tv.
