This game is fun and i like that it is up to the players to decide if the answers are correct. Although some players need to read the rules and understand the words dont have to start with the required letters just has to include them!

Doesn't work on nexus 6. Will give 5 stars when fixed

J70%
by J####:

I like that the game doesn't check the answers, however if you have an opponent who is less literate it can be frustrating. The categories repeat often. And just recently the app changed the status of 3 of my matches to say that I resigned....when I was waiting on my opponent's final move! It also does not keep statistics :(

U70%
by U####:

There should be a limit for how long it takes an opponent to play their turn. Some haven't played for ages.

U70%

How is one able to type in portrait mode?! There is no landscape mode so this game is impossible to play.

K70%
by K####:

I like the game - it makes me think. But it constantly bugs up, exists during games, freezes on the opening screen and doesn't work.

A70%
by A####:

For some reason, my answers in the third round of every game don't get saved. I don't get it. The other thing is it seems like there are very limited number of categories. They keep repeating in every game at least once. These types of games always seem good in theory but execution doesn't work

R70%
by R####:

this game would be alright except it will NOT accept all your answers ( and yes I answered correctly) ... and then it gave the other player higher score even tho it answered most wrong ... this game sucks, don't waste your time

A70%
by A####:

I've only played 4 games, and already I've had three categories be the same. This reminds me of the problem that the Draw Something app had .it just gets frustrating because you already played the same game. And the whole challenge thing doesn't work because there's no impartial judge to figure out if the persons challenge is legitimate or not. Its just kind of screwed up. And I'm not paying for more categories!!!!!

W70%
by W####:

In one round, it didn't save my points even tho I had clicked OK so it was showing 0 points. On others, I would click on my opponent and it would never pop up on the screen. I have to keep opening and closing the app. Lastly, there's no check if your opponent challenges you. It just deduct your scores and there's no really impartial judge so that's open to cheating. You can't say anything if your points are wrongly challenged. So it ends up being unfair and frustrating esp if other person isn't smart

D70%
by D####:

This game is lame, you wait too long for other players and they decide your "honesty." Uninstalled.

Finding friends should be open not only limited to the account you linked it to.

Z70%
by Z####:

This is so much fun, I have 13 different games going because I just can't stop myself

Y70%
by Y####:

The rules are simple, the game is fun, I enjoy playing it with my friends. So far there aren't any technical glitches and my only suggestion would be to create a button to invite friends to download the app

C70%
by C####:

Fun but the typing option is kind of annoying. Wish it just let's u type n edit straight from the answer box itself

Very fun... This is one of closes games to scattergories that I have found. It's fun.

Fun game

N70%
by N####:

I like that it doesn't "check" the answers to tell me what's right and wrong... Instead it relies on the judgment of the people I'm playing against. For me, this captures the fun of scattergories in a way that similar Android games fail to achieve. I am kind of selective when choosing my opponents. There are some frustrating players who just type anything. But there are many opponents who are smart, creative, clever and FUNNY. These are the matchups that make the game worthwhile for me!

N70%
by N####:

The game was very good but a bit average really I did not like that it showed all the games you had previously played because it took up quite a lot of room. I did like that it relied on the judgement of the person you were playing against not the app telling you whether it was right or wrong. I also liked that the app had an rematch button so that you could replay the person you had just lost/won aganist.

N70%
by N####:

Categorical is lots of fun, challenging, and never "too easy". So far, the categories haven't become repetitious as in other games. I really like this one.

Its annoying cause u go 2 put watever u want in and always says no ur opponent is ment 2 mark the device

W70%
by W####:

It seems like a fun game, but after maxing out the number of games I am allowed to start and waiting a week, they never matched me up with anyone so we could progress to round two. Lame!
