### 5/5 — I love it!

*2026-06-15, version 1.9.7*

So much fun! The graphics have gotten better and it’s truly a joy to play every day.

### 2/5 — Experiencing Lag

*2025-05-17, version 1.9.1*

It may just be my slightly older phone, but I have a really hard time going to old levels after I’m done with the daily challenge. My phone freezes up and I cant click anything. Otherwise, I think it’s a very good game! Good for history lovers, like me!

### 3/5 — We don’t like the recent update

*2025-04-22, version 1.7*

Would love a way to skip the questions and go back to just the videos!

### 5/5 — amazing trivia game

*2025-04-04, version 1.5*

usually never play mobile games but this game is quite a fun thing to play when you have nothing else to do

### 4/5 — Fun, but…

*2025-03-22, version 1.4*

Love this game; it’s fun and challenging! Only problem I have with it is the use of AI that results in some artistic mistakes that I have trouble seeing past.

### 5/5 — Love

*2025-03-15, version 1.3*

I love this but I’m also a history teacher. I won’t stop playing until I get all five right.

### 5/5 — This is so fun

*2025-03-02, version 1.3*

Granted, my gf and I hang out with other history nerds, but we cast this to our TV and had a ball arguing about our final answers! Great concept!

### 5/5 — This is so fun

*2025-02-07, version 1.2*

Mark my words this is the next wordle !!! I love this app it’s so fun

### 5/5 — It’s a fun history game

*2025-02-06, version 1.1*

I like playing games where i need to find the location and date, several are out there but so far im really enjoying this game, they put alot of hard work in the development and it shows.

### 5/5 — Heard about this on Reddit

*2025-02-06, version 1.1*

What a great game - idea and execution.  Inspires me to read more about each event- wondering if there is a way to have a synopsis of each event savable for later review (and easier research).  Kudos!
