### 5/5 — App needs more recognition!! 💯🚀

*2018-04-18*

This game’s concept is awesome but for some people it can be stress inducing, which is just as fun to watch. Also I extremely encourage this game to be played under the influence.  🍻👍

### 5/5 — Lots of laughs

*2017-07-01*

This is a really fun game with a bunch a friends. Finally the purchases work and there's much more words now.

### 5/5 — Great party game (basically Taboo)

*2016-12-29, version 2.1*

Best of the Taboo-like games out there. Good options and good word selection, especially with the add-on word packs.

### 5/5 — Great group game

*2016-12-15*

This game is like a mobile taboo and is way better than heads up! I love the fact that there is options for more teams. Only thing I wish they it would do is randomize the words more. I play with 4 packs and still run into the same word very often, but we usually play 10 rounds. Still it's a great game.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2016-01-04, version 1.1.1*

The free pack is great! I haven't tried the paid one

### 2/5 — Fun game but can't download new packs

*2015-12-25, version 1.1.1*

I love this game. It's a fun game to play with a group of friends. It's a fun game to play for hours in till the same words keep repeating. So, I bought the word packs except it won't download...

### 3/5 — Fun app just wish we could add more words

*2015-11-09*

This is a fun game to play with the family. However, after using all the words multiple times I decided to purchase an expansion pack. The expansion pack never downloaded and crashes the app. In checking other reviews I see this is a common issue.

### 1/5 — Not good

*2015-08-22, version 1.1.1*

This game is stuck in 1999 designs... Poor quality skip

### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2015-04-06, version 1.1.1*

Went straight from the option to 'play game' to 'game finished', wouldn't recommend.

### 5/5 — Great game!

*2014-12-28*

This is a great game for parties or just killing time in the car on road trips. I played it with the family over the holidays and everyone liked it. I bought a word pack and it transferred to my new phone, so that was nice.
