Scattergories Blitz Wiki

This is a fun game and pluses far outweigh the few flaws. Unlike the regular Scategories app you don’t run out of coins/lives and have to wait or pay to get them refreshed. Big plus! In general I’m amazed at how comprehensive their answer database is, but there are a few categories that are frustrating. For instance, for “formal table settings” it recognizes butter knife but not steak knife (or even just “knife”). Type plate and it populates “service plate” but salad and bread plate—nope. Also, there are some categories with limited answers (chess pieces, colors of the rainbow) and for those if both competitors know all the answers typing speed rather correct answers determine the victor for that round. Fortunately for me it ignores most minor typos so my thumbs can go faster than usual. One administrative annoyance — they cheerfully encourage you to contact customer support with questions/feedback and they’ll reply via email. They never respond and I doubt anyone ever reads them. I quit trying.

I like this game quite a lot actually 🤡🤦🏻‍♀️ It’s fast paced, plenty of different categories pop up so your not repeating your answers every other turn, turn-based multiplayer- so you’re actually playing against a real person and not some dumb “bot player”... Overall it’s a great category/association type word game!! So, if your looking for a game that requires you to read, type, think fast, & that offers a different category type/question every time & that does not just keep repeating the same things over & over, then you’ve just found your game!! My only complaint is that sometimes it seems like it takes way too long for your opponents to take their turns, which can be annoying if your impatient like I am!! Luckily the app allows you to leave your current game screen & go back & start another or several more games with different opponents while your waiting on a slow opponent... ⏳🦥🐌🐢🐛🧘🏽🛌💤⚰️🪦⌛️🏁

Love it so much. Lots of fun but there’s just a couple things that should be added. We should be able to challenge or dispute an answer. Like when I wrote Phone and it wasn’t an answer but telephone was or when I wrote Mr and Mrs Smith and got nothing but Mr & Mrs Smith was worth some points. Plus I wish I could have multiple games going on with the same friend at the same time. And I also wish there was an option to challenge a person again after finishing a game with them. This is good for people who were random opponents but challenged you. Otherwise, lots of fun!!

I really like this game; it’s fun to play and it’s fun to challenge people on all sorts of topics. My only minor complaint is that it used to be easier to do a rematch w someone; now you don’t get the option; I find I have to go to the completed game & then the option is there. Please give us the rematch at the conclusion of the current game is revealed; other than that it’s a great game!!

The game needs to be updated with some categories. I’ve specifically noticed it in music categories when older music or more specific artists get 0 points. Also, there are a lot of levels that let you say redicilously ambiguous answers but some ask for just a few very specific answers. Ex: category “Friends Characters, but the only acceptable answers are the 6 main characters. Why is Gunther getting the shaft? And I would love it if the next update ended the levels where you have to use one beginning letter. There’s another version of this game with that specific and it’s my least favorite part of this version.

Crashes and fails to load, changes screens without being prompted. This game needs some serious reworking. There are honestly too many bugs to keep it enjoyable for me. I loved playing Scattergories as a kid so I was excited to try this one out for iOS. But I’m rather disappointed with its clunky features. There are 30 sec adds after every turn and it’ll cost you a whopping $4 for the ad-free version? No thanks. I’m also annoyed that I have had to reinstall it twice today just to keep up on my 3 games. Hopefully the developers can work some of these problems out, because it could be a lot of fun.

I was about to purchase the ad-free version after the first few games. Several games later, I realized the categories became almost dumb. There should be a way to personalize game topics. There were several times I couldn’t play at all because the categories are not meant for everyone. Also, some categories are quite limited on acceptable answers. For example, salsa and tomatoes are not the same thing, but Scattergories says they are. Other times, you can list cheddar cheese and Parmesan cheese separately, but the next game autocorrects “cheese” to “cheddar cheese”. In other words, a player never knows what is acceptable. Needs improvement

This game is so much fun. I have enjoyed it very much! However, I have rated it three stars because I have been experiencing glitching throughout the entire day. The time will be ticking, but it won’t let me put an answer in. While in the middle of a game, and I get taken back to my Home Screen and end up losing the round. It has been freezing quite a bit, especially in the middle of rounds. I will gladly raise this to 5 stars once an update comes out to fix these problems. Other than these issues, it has been a very entertaining game!

Great game that could be a lot more fun. First problem is there’s an ad to sit through after literally everything you do. I don’t mind giving a day or two to an opponent to respond during a game, but I have a ton of “waiting for opponent” on my screen. Many of those have been there for days and I’m comfortably in the lead of, but the only way I see to get rid of them is for me to forfeit. Also should be a limit on the time extenders and answer reveals in a round. Some of these scores are ridiculously high and you have no way of reaching without a “cheat.”

I want to give this game more stars, but, quite frankly there’s just too much. Most of it is common sense answers that are missing. Your lists need to be updated to accept these answers. Example would be you don’t have all the actors who’ve played batman listed as possible answers. There’s also an issue when listing multiples of movies like example Back to the Future will often accept one and two but will claim it as a repeat if you enter three. Since typing fast and accurate on a phone is often hard to do it would be great if we could have an auto fill feature. It also wouldn’t hurt to double check what the person is actually writing. If I put mammals don’t give me monotreme. Lastly, I get that you’re trying not to allow sensitive words to be typed, but, if you’re asking me what goes in soup and I’m typing crackers, I’m obviously talking about crackers. If you’re asking for wedding dress designers and I put Vera Wang I’m clearly just trying to answer the question. There have been several instances of trying to add what would be a right answer but the game won’t accept it. Your sensors are way too high for this game. Other than that the game has potential. A little less ads, a lot less time to take your turn before you forfeit, a lot more categories(too many repeats), and some basic tuning and this game could be lots of fun.

The concept of the game is great but there’s several issues. 1) It freezes and glitches a lot. You watch an Ad to get more time for a round but after the ad it ends the round or freezes so you have to restart. 2) There’s no time limit for people to play a round, multiple people have accepted a challenge and then never played. I can’t end game without choosing to forfeit so instead games sit on my list forever. 3) Once you accept a challenge with a player and finish, it no longer asks for approval they can start as many games with you as they want without asking your approval again.

Do not play this game. The company has created bot accounts, (ie Ethan C.) whose answers were ridiculously uncommon and he answered so quickly that even when we answered in opposite order the bot earned double the points for both answers! I’m sure they have to create bot accounts to ensure people have competition but I think the company could come up with a better algorithm to make it more realistic. How do I know? I reversed google image searched the image associated with the account and it’s a stock photo used multiple times over by different companies and he goes by multiple names (Michael, technical director at design firm). This is just one bot account I stumbled upon in the first day of playing. I’m sure there are thousands. I’d rather the company just be transparent and say we’ll pair you with whatever is first available- bot or real

Stick to fight list as it’s the same game but way better. The answers I gave are the same answers my opponent gave but hers are worth double the points!!! How is this fair? It isn’t . So I’m done. It was coleslaw ingredients and I listed vinegar and it was worth thirty points, while her vinegar was worth 60! Same word exactly. It happened multiple times and it caused me to lose the game. Because my opponents had the same answers as me that came through worth higher points, they beat me even though I had way more answers than they did. What a crock. Fight list answers are rated the same for everyone. That’s the way it should be. I don’t mind some answers getting higher scores because they’re a better answer. But answers that are the same should be rated the same no matter who gives them, even if it’s a computer generated answer.

I was enjoying this game a lot! Lots of fun in a low stress kind of way. I paid for the no ad version, not because of the ads. I don’t really care about that. It is because when I enjoy a game, I like to help support the developers. Anyway, the bonus round stopped working, which is the 3rd round of every game so I can’t get past round 2. Ok fine, I’ll just start a new game every single time I wanted to play. That stopped working too. When I start a new game, it automatically starts a game with the same player over and over. It is supposed to be a random player. It certainly is not. I contacted the company. They said the developers are aware of the problem and an update should be out in a couple of days to resolve the issue. That was 2 weeks ago…
