Subscription also isn’t great
Subscription is overpriced and you have to pay monthly. The topics repeat the same words over and over again and it becomes easy and predictable.

AI, BAD
All AI slop- bad.

Paid after 2 rounds
they make you pay 10 dollars a month just to play a game. I could go buy at the store for 10 bucks. What a joke delete this garbage off the App Store.
★★★★ Briannnnnnnnah 1/10/2026 v2.1.4
It’s okay
You get to play once for free and then you have to pay. Not worth it unless you want to pay $9.99 a month. I suggest the first search pop which is also ‘ Heads Up’ because you only pay $1.99 and have full access.
★★★★ Eundnsmalwpn 12/30/2025 v2.1.4

You have to pay for everything and the price is very expensive

You can only play one game which is fast food no fun!

You HAVE To Pay
Doesn’t let you play unless you pay a subscription. LAME!
★★★★ CreativeCentaur 10/18/2025 v2.1.1
Absolute Buns
why do you have to pay for everything. some people are unemployed and want to guess fast food places so maybe don’t make it so you have to pay 2 bucks a month just to make play an AI game that was made by chat gpt ❤️ hope you get pink eye!
★★★★ @V3ri3 10/13/2025 v2.1.1
No use
I can't do anything I want on this game. I would not recommend to anyone
★★★★ Cross-Ice 10/5/2025 v2.1.1
Money hungry with AI photos to boot
I wouldn’t recommend downloading this app because it allows you to play one round without paying the $9.99 and then you still have to watch ads and they are AI photos abound it might not be very important but it’s the principal don’t download this. Honestly, you might just wanna spend the 199 for the OG heads up stay away.
★★★★ Courtnnaay_ 9/5/2025 v2.1.1
Subscription required (can only play twice)
Only played two rounds before they asked me to pay a subscription and wouldn’t let me play anymore
★★★★ haven’t snake brien 9/1/2025 v2.1.1
you have to pay for all the packs, only one round is free
hate it
★★★★ cakeBoss2019 7/29/2025 v2.1.0
False Advertising
This game is free to get in the App Store but as soon as you get it it makes you pay $9.99 to play anything. Terrible! I deleted it as soon as I found that out. Would not recommend
★★★★ Be.Brief 7/6/2025 v2.1.0
Money Hungry
Do not download. You get 2 free games. Terrible!!!

10 bucks a month to play, in this economy?
Read above
★★★★ elizama🐙🦋🐝 4/15/2025 v2.0.15
scam
makes you pay
★★★★ Cheeze14 4/8/2025 v2.0.15
waste of time
you get 2 free plays before you have to pay for everything. not worth time or space on your phone if you don’t want to pay $10/month
★★★★ Nail sveowhbame Samoans s 4/3/2025 v2.0.15
WORST GAME EVER. DO NOT BUY
The worst charades head ups up game I’ve EVER played. It lets you do two games and the everything else is locked, adds 24/7, try’s to get you to buy to much stuff. Any of the other charades games are. DO NOT BUY THIS ONE
★★★★ Mr ChoMomma 3/24/2025 v2.0.14
AI Images and downright bad
All the images are made with AI, and could only play one game before a paywall. Don’t download in general yeesh 👎
★★★★ Lucki charms15 3/4/2025 v2.0.12
It only let me play two games and then I had to pay for everything.
Stupid
★★★★ JustAshh 3/3/2025 v2.0.12
Not free
First two are free but then you have to pay FOR EVERY SINGLE ONE. Wouldn’t recommend considering there’s ads
★★★★ Bxnfjfjdkekek 3/2/2025 v2.0.12
Trash
It let us play once then wants us to pay? Really. I do not recommend this game you can only play once. Want to give it zero stars if I could don’t get this game!
★★★★ nattywitdafatty 1/24/2025 v2.0.10
MONEY HUNGRY
Do not download for a fun and free game night. Free fun stops after just one game.
★★★★ ProClub_20 1/20/2025 v2.0.10
Don’t buy!
So me and my friends wanted to play “headbands” but all it said was pay $9.99 so overall it’s not worth downloading.
★★★★ IridescentIguana 1/2/2025 v2.0.10
Gross monetization
This game will try to trick you into paying a subscription at every turn. And will feed you ads constantly.
★★★★ iPhone Reviewer 321 1/1/2025 v2.0.10
Pay wall
Bait and switch. Says it’s free and immediately tosses a 10 dollar paywall. Limited questions and very repetitive.
★★★★ Btbailey86 12/30/2024 v2.0.10
You have to have premium to do anything!
When I downloaded this game I thought I would be able to use all of the different games, but no you have to have a premium subscription that can cost 9.99 a month. And if you don’t get a subscription you can not play almost any of the games! I would not recommend.
★★★★ Youuulie 12/25/2024 v2.0.10
Needs payment after 2 game
We played 2 games for free. Then its asking to pay …
★★★★ Diz nuttt 12/25/2024 v2.0.10
Idk
It didnt even work
★★★★ Indiana Reshaunda 12/24/2024 v2.0.10
Horrible game
You have to subscribe to a subscription. To play any game/category I hate this game one star. Worst rating I’ve ever given to a game. I am so disappointed. I expected way more in a game like this.
★★★★ rqrs1 11/17/2024 v2.0.9
Bait and Switch
Entire app is behind a $6.99 per month paywall
★★★★ xcorcist 11/17/2024 v2.0.9
you only get two games until they force subscriptions on you
horrible ai art and will only let you play two short games until they force you to pay. everything in this app has horrible ai generated art . complete ripoff of a game. also this app has so many fake 5 star reviews, i couldnt find a single good review by a real person. if you sort reviews from most favorable theres only like 5 actual good reviews and they all seem to be from bots
★★★★ Lex<3🤫🧏 11/13/2024 v2.0.9
Omg
I just wanted to play a free charade game so I download this one but turns out that after one round you have to pay 6.99 and I think that is so stupid so pls don’t download this game unless you want to pay to play
★★★★ Karen Jojosiwa 11/8/2024 v2.0.9
Bad
I could only do one category then I had to pay 6.99 a month what kind of game is this. Some of the charades were hard and bad. Overall this is a horrible game and I don’t recommend.
★★★★ parisgonz 9/27/2024 v2.0.9
HAVE TO PAY FOR EVERYTHING!
do not get unless you want to spend money . says you can play for free but once you click the game you have to pay DO NOT PLAY! use to be a fun game until you had to start paying for EVERYTHING!
★★★★ kittyballz27 9/17/2024 v2.0.9
no.
This game was fun… the first TWO times i was allowed to play without paying. It was ridiculous. We were on a long car ride trying to find something to do and we found this app and downloaded it. We got to play to rounds of it and then had to pay for every other game we wanted to play. Did NOT enjoy.
★★★★ |KEL| 9/11/2024 v2.0.9
Pay to play
Game is no fun because you have to pay for everything

Purchases
Made me pay when I got app
★★★★ surdos64 8/9/2024 v2.0.9
Horrible
I got in it made me buy stuff. Deleted never playing again
★★★★ mkreads 8/2/2024 v2.0.9
Not Good
this app uses all ai art which is ugly and makes the menu look tacky. additionally i think the price to unlock the categories is far too high considering how much the real game costs.
★★★★ BKM0411 7/31/2024 v2.0.9
Same answers repeat
Bad game. The same answers repeat so it’s not really a game it’s just repeating the clues that worked
★★★★ cool monkey girl🙊 7/14/2024 v2.0.6
DO NOT GET THIS APP!!! RESD BEFORE GETTING APP
Me and my friend were at a sleepover and the idea charades came up we did not have the board game so we went on the App Store but the Charades app was 199 which we couldn’t pay so we downloaded this instead we signed up and everything it took us about five minutes, which is a very long time to just set up the app but then the screen said place phone on your for head so we did that and it wouldn’t go to the next screen. We waited 15 minutes. I want my time back
