Way too fast

This could be a great game but it should offer variable speeds. I know the answers!! BUT cannot zoom in and out that quick and sometimes the app doesn’t respond immediately thereby eating into your 60 seconds!!

Way too hectic

Impossible to complete in 60 seconds. Zooming in and out takes time. Please adjust timing!

A helpful Tool

A good app to strengthen geography recognition, though the format doesn’t help for too much more than that. Unfortunately the 60 time frame is a bit short with the map navigation. Would happily pay a few dollars or subscription to have this a more fleshed out program. Overall fun and useful in a flash card way.

App needs a rework

The map UI isn’t intuitive and the whole app is slow and laggy in general. I think this is a case where an older app just hasn’t aged well, an update would be great!

Too fast

I love the idea of this, and I think I could learn a lot from it, but there’s just not enough time to think and tap in and out of maps. With a little longer times available this could be such a useful tool. As it is, it’s just really annoying and a waste of time.

Needs further development

This is great to keep you on your toes and help you learn the different regions in an engaging way. I love that at the end of each round you can click and learn about each region and the style of that region’s wine- really helpful!
What isn’t helpful is that when you get one wrong, it doesn’t show you the correct answer, so you don’t learn where the region is, you just learn about it. A very basic step I feel they’ve sadly missed. Would be good if they had a map function on each region page to teach you.

Fun

I think it’s quite fun. Could u guys give more updates? I finished all levels

Love the concept, just not how it works

I love the game as a whole. Huge suggestions: It needs to have the option of not being timed, and it needs to stop repeatedly asking me the questions I’ve long mastered. The world map should get to the region faster and more efficiently when I’m narrowing down my answer.

Needs development, but ok.

Needs more levels, options without timers, options focused on countries, options by WSET level, etc.

Love it, but it needs some tweaking

This is a really fun and very effective way to memorize exact locations of wine regions. A few tweaks would be helpful. For example it would be nice if the name of the region was in a dark color instead of a light color because it sometimes takes me a few seconds to be able to read the name. Another tweak would be for the map to reset to the world view after each wine. That way I wouldn’t have to tap out before I could tap in again. Finally it would be nice at the end of the round to be able to see what the right regions were for the ones I got wrong. Although admittedly, after playing the game enough, I eventually figured it out on my own. Overall, I am extremely happy with this app.

Great memorization tool!

This game has been a fabulous tool to reinforce/remind me of things I learned years ago. It has allowed me to recall information I wasn’t sure was still lodged in my brain! I’m excited to brush up & continue my wine education now.

Basic app with lots of potential

Great app for learning the basic regions. Fast-paced and will definitely help with memorization. Would be helpful if a map with the region/subregion is located in the review notes. Also, it would be nice to include the information of the last option when the timer runs out along with the in/correct ones. Would love to see this app add on the next level to include notes about the wines.

Fun but

Needs more works. Timer should stop once an answer is made and maps should revert to original. Having to hit return on maps and double or triple tapping loses time and timer runs out
Retried app. only solution for it to work is remove timer

A poorly designed app

Avoid, unable to navigate successfully to the country you would like go to to choose a specific region - frustrating

Only for able bodied people alas

I'm a big wine drinker & highly ranked on the wine app Vivino. However I've had a stroke & cannot use my hands quickly. Unfortunately this game relies on the speed you can move & zoom vs. your knowledge. Great idea but a bit unfair to anybody who doesn't have lightning fast hands, regardless of your wine knowledge.

Challenging fun

The games are a lot of fun and a great way to lean more about wine regions

It is difficult to move in and out on the map as you need to do big region changes.

Maps have issues

I'm very good at knowing about wine, but I have found that navigating around the maps is rather unintuitive. It's very frustrating when you know the region where the wine label belongs, but you can't get to it because the maps are too hard to pinpoint. Otherwise, everything is is well done, it requires some knowledge, and it will really test you. If they can just find a better way to make the maps more intuitive, it can be a five-star app.

Bad app

Drills in to fast on map doesnt let you maneuver around on map needs serious upgrades before being user friendly

Needs better ability to move around the map

Just got this and see potential but it needs better ability to move around the map on level 1 ie can't get to Chile it always goes to Argentina.

Eh?

What an odd idea. I thought it may be about testing myself as to where certain wines come from, but it tells me the place, eg Loire, under the name of the wine, so all I am doing is matching a location to a country on a map. The timer means I don't have time to even look at what the wine is!

Have a non timer mode at least. We don't all need to be insanely speedy at matching and it can still be a game (and timed) without a short timeframe to complete.
