### 2/5 — It's not that much fun

*2019-08-09, version 1.0*

Your lives finishes too quickly. That removes the fun. And some solutions are more stupid than tricky.

### 1/5 — Where are the new puzzles?

*2019-03-28, version 1.0*

Not worth the money. App never updates the puzzles. Once you finish all the questions the app is useless.

### 2/5 — I regret buying the game

*2019-03-10, version 1.0*

It’s the same as the original , it’s a scam!

### 3/5 — I want more

*2019-02-24, version 1.0*

UM EXCUSE ME IM WAITING FOR MORE QUESTIONS RIGHT NOW WHERE ARE THEY ALSO WHATS THE POINT OF THE PAID VERSION?

### 1/5 — What a Waste

*2019-02-08, version 1.0*

No new updates weekly and there is no restarting. Just do the free one and save your $1.99

### 1/5 — Not accurate

*2019-01-27, version 1.0*

This app is just like the original tricky test in the scoring is not even that accurate it starts you off with 450 IQ but they’re only like 92 100 questions on there and so technically the score is not accurateWhen I was done I had a 412 IQ and that’s well well over Genius. It’s also a scam for your money

### 1/5 — False Advertising

*2019-01-22*

They made it seem like this would be a different game, but it has the exact same questions as the free version which I had already played though when I bought the Ticky 2 as it was advertised as if it were a sequel game, not just the pro paid version. Don’t waste your money.

### 1/5 — Exactly the same as the first one

*2018-12-22, version 1.0*

Same questions. Same solutions. Waste of money!!!

### 2/5 — Great game... whilst it lasted.

*2018-12-02, version 1.0*

Loved this game. So much so, that I managed to complete all the puzzles. Unfortunately, there are a limited amount of puzzles and when you’ve completed them, a notification appears promising that new games will be added each week. However, nothing has been added since I completed it. I’m quite disappointed because I paid for the game, and have not had the content that I anticipated. It just seems a bit dishonest

### 1/5 — SAME AS FREE/ORIGINAL TRICKY TEST DONT WASTE $

*2018-11-28, version 1.0*

This is the SAME TEST AS FREE APP! DO NOT WASTE $.

### 2/5 — EXACTLY THE SAME AS TRICKY TEST 1

*2018-11-24, version 1.0*

Don’t waste your money. Exact same game at Tricky Test 1. 
However; can’t complain seeing TT1 was free and very fun to play.

### 1/5 — I hate it

*2018-10-21*

When I spent money on this i was expecting to be able to play a new test not be able to play the same game just without ads!! This game is so stupid I hate it!!!!!! If you want to make a new game and title tricky test TWO at least make mew tests. I am not trying to hate on you guys (ok maybe I am just a little bit) but I just want to let anyone is wanting to buy this that the game is the exact same game as before. Please change this game or update it.

### 1/5 — Very unhappy

*2018-10-13, version 1.0*

I enjoyed the first version of this game, and was very excited to play the second. But it’s literally the exact same. Very very frustrated and would really appreciate a refund.

### 1/5 — False advertising

*2018-10-03*

It was sold with the option to use coins instead of having to watch the ads. Absolutely false. You still need to sit through the ads and the option to use coins aren’t there. Issue a refund or fix it.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Just play the free one

*2019-09-26, version 1.0*

I enjoyed playing the first Tricky Test and saw 2 advertised in it. I wouldn’t usually pay for an app but I did, $2.99. I wish I saw the reviews as I was pretty disappointed to find the questions were the same.

### 1/5 — If you’re cheap don’t waste money downloading it

*2019-09-05, version 1.0*

I downloaded the first tricky test for free and paid for this second one for $1.99 and both basically have the exact same questions. Except this one only have 101 and added a little holiday decor

### 1/5 — DONT BUY

*2019-08-11*

All you are getting is the free game (the exact same game) just with 1000 coins and no ads. 
To be honest, the questions aren’t hard enough that you need that many solutions and in the free version they give you free coins every 10 mins (enough for a clue) if you’ve played the original game and want another game like it, this IS NOT IT it is the exact same game with the same questions and if you don’t want ads just turn on airplane mode.

### 1/5 — Rip off

*2019-06-13, version 1.0*

Rip off no different form the first

### 1/5 — Touch screen in change is horrible, can’t solve the puzzle.

*2019-05-26, version 1.0*

Can’t get past question 27 because the sharp corner either peels up a tiny bit or all the way. Can’t try to pop the balloons like the solution says. Wasted my $$$.

### 1/5 — Very boring

*2019-05-19, version 1.0*

When I had the free version, and I was offered the new and what I thought would be different form of the game. But it’s the same.

### 1/5 — I accidentally bought it

*2019-05-14*

I’m a kid with some strict parents. I was looking at apps (I was about to go to my home screen Bc my friends kept texting me) and I guess I clicked it (the phone is set up to where you can get apps by put your fingerprint in). WELL I had my thumb on the home screen button. I didn’t mean to pay for it, I DIDN’T EVEN MEAN TO GET IT, and I don’t know how to refund it. My parents will kill me. Somebody please help. (I haven’t played the game either btw.)

### 1/5 — Don’t buy this version it’s the same as the Free one

*2019-04-28, version 1.0*

Really disappointed that this was the exact same version as the free onе. Spend $2.99 for nothing new!

### 1/5 — Don’t buy! The free game is just as good

*2019-04-11, version 1.0*

Worst game ever Free game is just as good

### 1/5 — Dont waste your money same as free version

*2019-04-01*

This is a paid version to get christams theme and a soundtrack!! Its misleading where the questions are exactly the same, me and my daughter we finished the free version and this is called tricky 2 which anyone would assume its another stage with another questions or puzzles

### 5/5 — MARMITE!

*2020-05-07, version 1.0*

HATE IT!   HATE IT!   HATE IT!

Stupid questions 🥴 that make my clever brain feel like it’s in quarantine in a different country than I am! 🤯 
I just stopped smoking. “Do something different to distract you” they said. This game has me going from 10 a day to 20+! 🤬
Hate it (Love it ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️) Hate it!

### 5/5 — Very challenging

*2019-09-28*

Takes your mind off the mundane sh_t of a morose kind of day. Trust me. Or don't. It's your brain genius.

### 5/5 — Good game

*2018-12-31, version 1.0*

Challenging and good to play with the kids

### 5/5 — Read this Before you Hate on it

*2018-12-13*

People think this game is bad and poorly made, but it has the graphical quality of elite games and the questions are actually tricky and challenging.

### 5/5 — Fun game

*2018-12-02, version 1.0*

Makes you think. Fun game

### 5/5 — It’s a SCAM

*2018-11-25, version 1.0*

What’s the point of getting it if it is just like the free version it is terrible

### 5/5 — 361 IQ!!

*2018-09-30*

Apparently I have an it of 361 so now I get to brag to my friends! And this is definitely the best iq test in the world and it’s also the most fun. Trust me THIS IS A MUST DOWNLOAD!!👍🏻

### 5/5 — Sorry

*2018-06-01, version 1.0*

Can I get a refund I got the game by accident

### 5/5 — You should let the people play after they finish the game

*2018-03-28, version 1.0*

Because once someone finishes the game they cannot play it again and so once you finish the game there is nothing else you can do.And I strongly suggest you put more questions because you start to memorize the questions.

     But other than that this game is awesome I love it.

     This game deserves 5 stars.  

                               ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

### 5/5 — Game girl

*2018-01-14, version 1.0*

Addictive game!!!
