### 4/5 — US

*2026-08-24, version 2.0.8*

Amazing 😁 so fun! But I don’t know much about the US and most the themes are based on US but overall I love the game

### 2/5 — Review

*2026-08-03, version 2.0.8*

To many adds

### 2/5 — Not worth it

*2026-07-21, version 2.0.8*

There’s so many questions where I had answers that were correct but to them it wasn’t correct no matter how much you made sure it was spelled right. Very biased.

### 5/5 — Great

*2026-07-15, version 2.0.8*

This game is so fun

### 1/5 — Trash

*2026-07-12, version 2.0.8*

Round 9 when it said chicken tenders and Macaronu and cheese isn’t a popular Jed’s menu item

### 2/5 — Way too many ads

*2026-06-02, version 2.0.8*

It’s a good game but the ads ruined my experience. There should be no reason to have ad after each round. App developers are just money hungry

### 3/5 — Why this game is Al

*2026-05-22, version 2.0.8*

The game was good but the topics were hard and not that interesting

### 1/5 — I HATE this game

*2026-05-07, version 2.0.8*

If i could i would give it a 0 but i can’t any time i got the typing correct it counted as wrong.

### 1/5 — Not my favorite

*2026-04-16, version 2.0.6*

I mean, I just wanna win one round and I’m always a loser cause I barely even know anything like what is that for? They’re not so easy.

### 3/5 — Horrible

*2026-04-09, version 2.0.6*

I do not like it. I always lose it so hard.
