PBS Big Picture Challenge for Android
It would be better if you were given better hints or zooming out. The obscene charges for a yint a rear ridiculous compared to how many coins you get for answering correct. I will be uninstalling this App. Sorry PBS
I can't even get past the first picture puzzle because the keyboard with the letters keeps moving and disappearing. Not good at all.
Needs a skip button or something. When all other help fails, I hate being stuck on a pic.
Good game contents and design. Bad coding. Buggy and no updates. Hmm...
I am amazed with how many I can get right. Who knew how much you knew
Drains battery I hate when apps do this... There is no reason the app need GPS location results, except maybe to serve up relevant ads based on location. Still, that can be done with coarse (cell tower) location. No need to run my GPS and drain my battery.

This is a fun game with good mechanics. But I had to cheat a lot. Some of the pictures are straight up impossible to guess bc they zoomed in on the wrong spots that don't tell you what it is.
If you know how too read between the lines this app is saying that " everything and everyone is not always as it seems " &&& "Dont judge a book by its cover"
This game is easy enough to not be frustrating, but challenging enough to be interesting. I like the little fun-fact after you solve a picture. No freezes or crashes either!
Love the idea and the way its set up. But the hints are too expensive so I'm stuck too soon.
Suck balls. Hate apps like this. If wanted to, you could buy your way through it. Stupid.

It's a good way to spend extra time and learn facts about places and things. It's also very nerve-racking which to me makes it fun and so unlike any other games similar to this
Game for visual folks. Shows me my spelling stinks.

But when you solve the puzzle and the little trivia popup displays it is sometimes way out of focus and completely unreadable.
Fun facts but dont earn enough coins to resonably continue game. Ads keep freezing my phone. uninstalling.
This game rocks! If you don't rely on hints and rather ask others to help you out, it's way more fun. I've actually made friends playing this game on public transportation. Please add more levels soon! :D
Love this game! They always go so fast though lol! So when I beat it I get bummed out haha
The coinage for clues seems unreasonable to me. It's PBS shouldn't the clues be free?
I spent 99¢ on an in app purchase so it could just disappear. Lots of fun other wise.
Expexted more than a basic cash grab from PBS. Its a shame they have ruined their rep like this.
The pictures are so close it makes for a very challenging brain tease!! Thought it would be easy but I was presently wrong :o)
...but overall pretty easy. The facts are interesting, but they need a fact checker. They have Moore's 'Visit From St. Nicholas' as being written in 1922 instead of 1822, so makes me wonder about the accuracy of the others....
I like the challenge of the game but some of the pictures are impossible because the zoom is too close. Also, if I am to get 10 coins by watching a video, then give me 10. Just watched 6 or 7 and only got 2 or 3 for each. Some only give 1. And you are limited to how many ads you are allowed to watch in a given time for those 'coins'.
I really liked the game but some were just too hard to figure out and I can only watch so many ad videos to get coins. Un installing....
My daughter and I love the game, we just finished the last level. Sometimes we would get stuck and would search stuff online, and sometimes we would get stuck, and sometimes we would breeze right thru.
Pretty fun game. I just wish it specified when an answer was more than one word.
Many pics are easy, but some are really hard, which I like, since it's challenging and works out my brain.
For each puzzle you solve, it gives you a little bit of historical information about the image. However, there is a popup to watch an add to get coins that I'm not fond of seeing often.
Some are real stumpers. Good fun!
.I like this game hve to put thought to some flicks but fun none tha less.
Easy to play, fun facts, educational.
The puzzles are intriguing. Earning points is rigged. If the answer isn't obvious, it takes forever to get enough points to get a clue! Watching an advertisement is supposed to be 10 points but often they give you only 3. This site should be fun, not FRUSTRATING. I expect PBS to play fair, not lie.
I love this game! Whole family gets involved. Don't mind watching a few shirt ads to earn coins. Great for all ages!
In level Structures, 6-9, the answer should be London Bridge but the letters are wrong and the spaces provides are too few for the puzzle. Game was fun and informative but now I have to uninstall because I can't get past that puzzle!
My wife and I would wind down solving a few together before bed. It saved my marriage. :-)
don't count on getting enough points from solving the puzzles to open the next window early (it will open automatically once you complete the previous window) you can buy points or just wait as every 12 hours if you open the game you get 50 bonus points. Uninstalled after a while as the picture was either easy or very hard, after a while it was not fun I think it's made that way so you buy the hints
