Primarily, low amount of games for free. Map doesn't load properly during most of the games (connection is stable), which is very frustrating in time challenges. Also, a bug where same locations keep repeating, but number of free games ticks off... Overall, disappointing experience for what was a good game. Not sure how to expect for someone to pay for this..

The app is really just single player or battle royale at this point. We downloaded the app because my family was having trouble across various mobile browsers (losing the UI and having to log out and rejoin). Unfortunately, the only way to play with friends on the app is to first launch the game in the browser and then continue from the app under 'Unfinished Games'. I wish the app had built in multiplayer, but I assume more features will come eventually.

Just DL the app, I can not progress past the second introductions phase, the screen is just black. When playing on PC i also run into a similar issue. I suppose it is due to VPN or bad overall connection. If the game would work as intended, then I'd rate the app/game much higher as it is a wonderful concept and game to play. Yet, if I can not play then very frustrating

Very fun game however you very rapidly run out of free rounds and are forced to pay for a pro account. While I have no problems with paid contenr within apps, there is ZERO way to find out the cost of the subscription within the app. You can sign up for a week-long trial, but again there is zero mention of ultimate cost. It's hard to judge if a subscription is worth it when there's no price tag.

Absolutely love the game, but the app leaves so much to be desired. The double tap feature is great when it works, but someones it either doesnt at all, sends you backwards, or puts you on an underpass when going over a bridge. But my biggest gripe (other than 1 free game every 8 hours or so) is when you close the map, your pin someones disappears and it zooms all the way out, which is horrible when trying to get a perfect run, as spots you save you have to find again.

The game itself is fairly fun but you hardly get to play any games before you are forced to pay. Additionally, the game is super glitchy and while you are trying to look at maps, you will often be stuck looking at pixelated landscapes while the time continues to count down. It was fun enough when it worked better but I think as the game gets more popular, the quality gets worse. It's fun for a week, then it sort of loses its appeal.

I truly love this game and premium is not terribly overpriced. But I am running into a bug since the update that make the game nearly unplayable right now. one of the ways you can adjust your guess is by seeing how close the guesses of others are to yours. But lately the game has been not displaying any other guesses until literally the last second of the round, so you have zero time to adjust your guess. It's super frustrating! Will adjust my stars if this bug is repaired.

It's a fun game and a great idea but they've put themselves into a bind. It's not worth playing unless you upgrade to a paid subscription but the paid subscription is not worth the price. For example: I enjoy Famous places game but get the same location in 40-50% of games. This is not encouraging as to the overall quality of the game. Also the leaders get perfect scores in 8 seconds . . . really? I might buy the game for 3-5 bucks but monthly, can't do it.

I gave it a chance and paid the sub, despite the fact I'd strongly prefer a one-time fee or even an option to watch ads to get more out of the free version. Here's the issue: I've played *maybe* ten games, and lost two of them (one streak and one BR) already due to getting a black screen at the start of a new map. If this continues to be a pattern, I don't know if I'll renew.

Fun game, mediocre app. For some reason, double tapping to move forward stops randomly and only the forward arrow works, one tiny step at a time. When on a map with long stretches of straight roads, it makes the game unplayably slow. I've given up a few dozen times, and I've only had the game for about 48 hours. It doesn't matter the road type, it happens on freeways as well as country lanes. It's super frustrating and doesn't happen on the PC version. It would be great if this was fixed.

Great game, but the free version offers very little. The game used to allow a few games in each mode before you had to watch ads, then it was an ad per game, and now you're limited to one free game and 5 rounds in Infinity Mode. I understand the cost of using Google Maps and whatnot, then needing to profit, but it leaves free users in the dust. Overall, lots of fun, just don't have much to talk about since I'm so limited. Considering subscribing.

Used to be so great, I don't know why they ruined it. True I haven't tried on my computer in a while just on the phone, but on the browser it's automatically timed to 2:00 which is NOTHING, and on the app there's none of the modes or maps like the classic browser has. Quite buggy while moving around too, I like that you can jump really far by double tapping but now it lacks control it used to have. It was great before, just leave it alone!

Fun game but there are some problems with looking around and selecting a place on the map. Sometimes when you try to move forward, you won't move at all even when a forward arrow is there, you will only move a little, or you will move backwards. Mid game looking around can be very laggy, or the map will move slowly and sometimes lag, moving you far more than you intend to. The above things can sometimes make you lose the game. Otherwise, this is a very fun game and I highly recommend it.

Ive loved this game for 10 years or more but the app is very buggy. I paid for pro version, and the first time I try to play a party game with my friend, it freezes up on my end and I miss the entire first round... And then for the rest of the rounds and it gets hung up after selection and never shows me the summary screen to score each round. Sometimes on my friend's end they also missed the first round because it freezes... Really ruins the fun of it

Playable at the very least, but it lacks a portrait mode. The experience plating landscape is terrible in my opinion. Otherwise, it has the same solid foundations as the browser game. Gimme my portrait mode, you'll make this man whole!!! (And many other people at the same time :D)

Once again, in April 2024, the updates are a huge step backwards. The games is worse than it was two months ago. I loved this game but this mobile version is not good. Games are easily dropped if you have to navigate to other apps for any reason. You lose all 5 rounds for the day. Maps are very slow to respond and only fill half the screen. No reason to believe the paid version is any more stable. No reason to pay until there are better updates.

I love this game and I play it daily on PC but this app is just a little lacking. I would like the mobile version more if I could do my Daily Challenge and Quest on here. Also, please please please make it so the Timer isn't a slider (or improve it), it's difficult to lower the timer to exact number, for example, if I wanted it to be 10 or 30 seconds. Thanks.
