*** APP STORE EDITOR'S CHOICE *** From the band OK Go, a totally new kind of word game. It's creative, with no preset answers -- a funny, unpredictable, mind-melding, turn-by-turn game where you have to think like your friends! Say the Same Thing is the social word game where you and a friend try to say the same word, at the exact same time. The rules take ten seconds to learn. You each say a word. If they don't match, you take those two words and each try to say something that connects them -- something they have in common, or a bridge between them. You keep going, round after round, your answers closing in, until you both say the same thing. That's the win. It sounds easy until you're four rounds deep, you said "ocean," they said "engine," and you have to find the one word that pulls you back together. Getting two minds to meet in the middle is harder, funnier, and more satisfying than it has any right to be. PLAY WITH YOUR FRIENDS - Group games with friends -- start a private game with your friends and play together in real time. Take your turns whenever you want; the game waits for everyone. - Live reactions & stamps -- react the moment a friend's guess is hilariously close, or hilariously far. - In-game chat -- talk trash, celebrate, and react without leaving the game. - Shared win history -- every game you've won together, saved to celebrate and relive. - Find friends fast -- search, add, and challenge friends in seconds. PLAY ON YOUR OWN - Daily Challenge -- one fresh puzzle every single day. See how your answer stacks up against players worldwide. - Games tab -- new word games every day, like Cross Reference, Cubewords, and Fill in the Blanks. Play daily to build your streak. MAKE IT YOURS - Character avatars -- pick your player from a cast of animal and robot characters. - Turn notifications -- get a nudge when it's your move so a game never stalls. - Sign in with Apple or Google -- jump in fast, with your games synced across devices. Free to play. Grab a friend and find out how alike you really think.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Say the Same Thing holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Say the Same Thing has 68 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 57% of Say the Same Thing's written reviews are positive against 67% of Dropcaps's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
