Nice game, really addictive, I like the idea of being able to stop the game when you want- you can use different tactics etc. For those who complained about this element- there's zen option where you can't stop the game. So you have quite a good,but you need to develop it,expand. Needs more categories, as they are quite repetitive,also more statistics and rankings,some sort of tournaments- that would hook people to play your game longer not just a week or two. Do that and I will give 5*

I like this game but it needs to have the option for solo play or against the bot. I have several games awaiting my opponents' turn and I want to play now. Opponents invariably respond when I'm busy doing something else. The constant, not game related, notifications are annoying especially as I'm not always notified when it's my turn. Players shouldn't be allowed to win a round by stopping it after only 6 seconds having only one (misspelt) answer.

Thanks, Chris! We appreciate your thoughts on solo play and notifications. We'll consider your suggestions internally. For adjustments, you can manage notifications in device settings, and send more ideas via Email Us in the game. If you wish to play without your time ending early, do try Zen Mode. Please reconsider your rating! 😊

it's a great game, fun and for the most part fair. i love that it isn't US centric and it's forgiving of spellings. biggest gripe is with the overlong ads that you can't close. if they were less aggressive I'd take more interest in them or consider paying to go ad free but I'm not going to if I'm being forced to watch them. of course i dont watch them, i turn my phone away from my face or close the app. then hate whatever is being advertised and refuse to consider ever using it.
