Ads that MAKE you download
Was great until every single ad only had an option to download after watching or interacting with.
Terrible
This game is so terrible and so hard on the first level it was Roman numerals I had to go on google and search up what it meant so this is why I think this game is terrible
Stop with the Pay Wall BS
$5 a week to access the most interesting puzzles? You are out of control with this. Mildly entertaining app, but hiding all the musical questions behind your “PRO” pay wall is ridiculous. Please go out of business, you are greedy and terrible!
Ads deceiving
I got an ad that showed me quite a few audio puzzles but it turns out if you want to play those audio puzzles you must pay for premium.
Wasted my money
I hate this app! It’s annoying and NOT fun.
Ads are way too aggressive
I love this app but the ads are so aggressive and require me to go to the App Store so often it’s unplayable.
Great game, when you can actually play it…
WAY too many ads. Like 70% of the time you’re watching forced ads. The game itself is really cool, but you spend twice and long dealing with ads as you do in the game.
Can’t play all levels
To play certain levels you have to pay. Not watch an add or anything like that. You have to spend money. Would give zero stars just for that.
Cute game- love the musical levels
Boo! You reel me in with a promise of a musical game, but now you expect me to pay for the musical levels? Nope. Nice concept, lmk when you’re ready for customers. I won’t keep a game that demands payment. I can decide whether to spend money on a game. In five or six levels, you don’t have me hooked enough for that.
What the Star?
I got this game to play the music levels but those are all for the paid version unless you use coins and purchase extra categories. Also why the stars? You collect stars and they do absolutely nothing!
Deleting the app cause I’m not paying to play the rounds I was exited for.
I downloaded it from an ad that showed a music round. But you have to pay to play the music rounds.
They need to go back to school
Fun, but a lot of wrong information
Deleting the app.
Cannot play the game at all and cannot get it to switch to English. It is a shame because before this latest update I had been playing it for a few years.
Очень много рекламы
Очень много рекламы которую нельзя пропускать
Won’t open after each game
Each time I win and need to move up a level, the screen freezes and I need to close the app and reopen to go to the next level. It also stops at 1101 and hasn’t had any new levels in months
Deceptive Set up
Do not buy upgrade it doesn’t give you anything. Trying to report them to apple
Very fun game
I love playing this game, there is only one issue I have, and it is more of an inconvenience than an issue. Once you finish a level and get at least 3 correct, you earn a star. Once you earn a star, every time you finish the level, the only place you can go is next to the next level, you cannot hit restart to replay the level, even if you didn’t get 100% correct. To replay the level, you have to continue to the next one, back out, then reselect the level you want. This is an issue for me, since I like getting all 3 stars on each level (getting 100%) and if it takes me multiple tries to 100% a level because if it is knowledge I do not have, it is a pain to have to go to the next level, back out, and replay the level. I have to repeat that constantly until I get them all right. If only there was a replay button each time you finish a level, that will fix my issue. Thank you for your consideration, and if you have questions, let me know. Edit: any update on if that will be added? I see another review with the same issue, so I know I am not the only one that is effected by this. It really breaks the flow of the game and doesn’t make me want to play when all I want to do is restart, but I have to press a bunch of buttons to do so when it can be put to one button. Have to change to one star.
Can’t play the advertised feature without paying a ridiculous fee
Whole reason i downloaded the game was because it was advertised as a music trivia game, almost none of the levels are the advertised song guessing levels and you only get to play one as a trial for the pro plan
Misleading
I downloaded for the music levels but you have to pay for them. And a lot of the topics were abt pop culture which I dont know anything abt nor have interest in (ex: celebrities)
Disappointed
I was having fun with this until I got to a subject I knew nothing about (European Football), and then I was stuck forever unless I paid money. I’d rather pay money up front to purchase the game. If not, I’ll end up paying more money than the game is worth by paying a little at a time. To me, an in-app purchase means I’ll play for a while and then I’ll purchase the game if I like it. With this game, I would have. ☹️
Very misleading
When I saw the tic Tok add for this app I was led to believe oh hey a music trivia game no it was random trivia and when I got to the level that was shown on the ad it said this was for a subscription and locked behind a pay wall very misleading I was thinking it was a music trivia game it is not that at all.
At least half of the questions are about US pop culture
I was hoping for something that was more about general knowledge. Instead a good portion of the questions are about the latest pop stars or tv shows.
False Advertising!!!
Have to pay for any music levels!
Only interesting level is paywalled
I only downloaded this for the music levels. No, I’m not paying money for levels that I would have to go through 10 levels of which I have no desire to play just to get to the ones I paid for.
False advertise
This game showed in an AD on another game of the music levels, but you can only pay if you buy the pro game, which was never mentioned in the AD.
Pay walls on the good levels
It actually upsets me that all the music levels are hidden behind a paywall. Enough to remind me why I deleted the app the first time.
Music levels
Are all the music levels behind a paywall?
Way too easy
It’s not a bad game, however, it’s way too easy for anyone over 12 years of age. I kept waiting for more difficult levels but they never arrived. Even the levels that had a preface warning you that it was difficult and few would pass were so simple it was ridiculous. Something genuinely challenging would make this a much better trivia game.
Another app out for money.
The first 20 or so levels are to draw you in, the rest are all just sports and books no one reads. The cool song ones it advertises you have to pay monthly for. I wouldn’t mind paying but $5 a month just for the song levels every ten levels? Not worth it.
Doesn’t add to your knowledge
The trivia questions are low IQ and mostly about hollyweirdos, Disney, and what’s at fast food restaurants…
Misleading ads
I downloaded this app because of the music levels in the ad. Unfortunately, the game only gives you one for free and then requires you to subscribe to “pro” in order to do any music levels after that. The ads don’t say anything about this.
Good game, but some answers are wrong
In level 6, it says blue morphos are not poisonous, however, after a quick google search, it can be found that they are in fact poisonous.
Upsetting
I downloaded for the music levels. Believe it or not you have to pay for those after one free one. I get selling pro for no ads and such do what you have to. But advertizing the game by showing music levels just to make people pay for it after downloading is just wrong
Too many ad videos
It has too many ad videos, takes too long for the ads to play. Deleted.
