Summary

The app is widely enjoyed as a fun and engaging game, serving as a great time filler for family and friends, with users appreciating its evolving content and the capability to create custom decks. However, a major concern is the app's severe instability, with numerous reports of crashes, particularly after recent updates or new deck purchases, affecting devices like the iPhone 17 and iOS 26. Users are also highly critical of the monetization model, labeling it a "scam" due to expensive, mandatory in-app purchases after the initial app cost, the shift to bundles over single decks, and misleading "free" offers. Additionally, common frustrations include non-functional customer support links and issues with deck content, such as irrelevant "Act it Out" words and the lack of Spanish language options.
