### 2/5 — Same 200 Questions

*2020-06-21, version 2.0*

Everytime you play.  There is no “back” button to review the answer you miised, and when you get thw answer right, there is no commentry on the “Right Answer!” screen- just a totally unrelated quote to the event, and the quotes are sometimes repeated. If the author is going to use a quote instead of expounding a bit on the history involving question, then maybe the quote itself should be related to the event?  The questions themselves are good, the photos are good. But the same two hundred questions for the greatest epic tragedy in human history? I’m glad I only spent $1.99. Because I’m only going to have played the game once.  Really too bad, because it would be easy to make it so much better.  Such a disappointment.

### 5/5 — A nice little app for the war buff

*2018-11-10, version 2.0*

Informative and fun

### 5/5 — History Kept Alive

*2017-10-20, version 2.0*

We can only learn about peace by keeping the memories of our past and no repeating the same mistakes. You learn from the past to plan for the future. These are very good programs. I recommend them to all high school and college students. Take it from a 70 + man who lived through a lot of it.

### 5/5 — Classic tough quiz!!

*2016-03-23, version 2.0*

Very very good,But Very very hard!!!!

### 5/5 — Not bad...

*2015-02-01, version 2.0*

If you are a WW2 ace then it can at times challenge you but it does have some quirky trivia that you wouldn't have thought of.

### 2/5 — Same 200 questions

*2015-01-29, version 2.0*

Once you finish the 200 questions, your only option is to repeat the same game.  Also, after the answer is given, there is no option to read further or learn more.  Wouldn’t have purchased this.

### 2/5 — Challenging questions but...

*2014-12-26, version 2.0*

Would be a better educational game if the correct answer included the option to read more details. It's much more fun to learn as one's playing! Can't say I really find this game enjoyable nor does it make me want to purchase your other history trivia games.

### 4/5 — Difficult

*2014-10-12, version 2.0*

I frequently watch the history channel but this quiz has shown me I don't know as much as I thought. I love the challenge.

### 2/5 — Redundant

*2014-07-08, version 2.0*

Interesting until questions are repeated, which happens very quickly.

### 5/5 — Comprehensive non-ancillary WWII trivia app - worth the $

*2014-06-10, version 2.0*

This app contains a vast source of trivia data to spend countless hours firming up your WWII knowledge.
