### 1/5 — Online gaming is flaky has not worked in 3 days

*2023-08-18*

Bought the game to play my son who lives in another town.  Can not do this because online gaming is flaky.  Has not worked going on 3 days.   Good when it works.

### 1/5 — Don’t buy the PS4 version for PS5

*2023-04-15*

Fully does not work with the local option when used with the PS5 app. So I’m stuck with a game I can’t play with my family, which is really the only reason for getting it, and I can’t seem to get a refund of that. So I’ll leave this here, maybe the app or game will update so I didn’t waste the money.

### 1/5 — Awful

*2023-02-12, version 2.7.2*

Will not connect to game on PS5. If I’m lucky one phone might connect with it but the other person that wants to play won’t. Either fix the issue or the game needs at least to be multiplayer. Such a waste of money and time.

### 1/5 — App crashes and asks to redo tutorial everytime

*2023-01-04, version 2.7.2*

App crashes too frequently and asks to redo tutorials

### 4/5 — Was good but no PS5

*2022-07-03, version 2.7.2*

I loved playing this on PS4 but it seems that it does not work on PS5. The game looks fine but I cannot connect any devices, it says PS4 everywhere but is there an update coming to allow PS5 playlink? Really hope so, I miss playing this with friends.

### 3/5 — Stop this tutorial

*2022-06-19, version 2.7.2*

When I first logged into the game it was fine to do the tutorial once but I keep logging in and every time I do I have to do the tutorial again and again. Can you get rid of this, I hate the tutorial now and I now don’t play the game as often because every time I log in I have to do the annoying tutorial, Other than that I really like the game it is fun and the routes are cool. Please consider getting rid of the tutorial every time you log in and whenever I play online My account gets deleted every time I log out of the game so fix that too 👍

### 1/5 — Poop

*2022-04-24, version 2.7.2*

Don’t waste your money

### 1/5 — App not connecting to PS4

*2022-02-10, version 2.7.2*

App has stopped linking me to the PS4 game and now we can’t play a game we’ve paid some 40  or more dollars.

### 5/5 — Best

*2021-09-30, version 2.7.2*

This is one of the best games also try the board game!

### 1/5 — Won’t connect, no instructions

*2021-06-06, version 2.7.2*

Bought the PS4 game, which is cool
For solo play. Downloaded this app to use local multiplayer functionality of the PS4 game. Will not connect, no guidance how to troubleshoot. Renders the PS4 game totally useless to us.
