This game is the best!!!!!!! We love this game so much we play it every single day and we keep getting so addicted Thank you for making this game!!!
Love the game so fun im platino it all da y.
Well, in about 2 months we finished all 69 cities! This game is fun but limited. Im not sure if we should just delete it & start all over again. Could you please add more cities? We enjoy the jobs & trivia questions& the quests. We just need more citiesor a referral to a similar game. Also, it gets tiring answering the same questions in jobs. Add more questions! This game really needs an update. Please help! Thanks!
You reach a point where you can go no further unless you start paying.
Its a fun game, and we would give it 5 stars, but the jobs are far too repetitive; theyre also too reliant on very niche knowledge of Swedish history and sports figures. Im assuming its made by a Swedish company, but if its designed for a worldwide audience, then questions about world history, authors from around the world, etc.. Would make the game much more enjoyable.
This game is for all ages. We like the random questions and have learned a thing or two along the way.
Enjoyable game, definitely. Just a tad too America centric .
Gets stuck. Did not use for over 10days would not move. Just was. Dont understand. Sometimes we can use and other times we cant. Great fun or would have deleted already Have since began and have only three sites. Don’t understand.
The game s eke like it could be fun but you have to fumble around to know what to do and your not really sure. We were asked to help someone and it took us to a different place and we wasnt done in the first place. We dont know it could be fun Ill stick with it for a little while longer.
Game freezes after minimal game play. We had to delete and reinstall twice.
The answers are too obvious would be nice to have more of a challenge.
The sights cost so many ticketyet its so hard to earn tickets. Try rewarding with those more often. Cus you cant get your next adventure without doing at least 2 out of three sights. Its so ridiculous to pay for tickets and you dont even make it including no ads. Just saying that tickets need to be easier to earn. And coin rewards are so small it is hard to stay in a city and earn those when you have to even pay to sleep on the street. That should be free cus its free in real lifeseriously stupid! More ticket rewards and higher coin rewards would make the game great!
We’ve spent hundreds of game days in Cape Town waiting for the second messenger to return and give us a new assignment. We completed all of our tasks, including all of the extra ones. Bummer. We were really enjoying this game, but cant get past this point. Please fix this hiccup soon! We want to continue playing. Also, The Great Salt Lake is very shallow, only 33 feet at the deepest. The answer in your game says its very deep, over 600 feet. There was also a Harry Potter question about books where the answer was wrong. There are only 7 books, not 8. Also, often you dont get the key you earned during a job. Love the game. Its informative and fun. Please help us all move beyond Cape Town!
The game itself is interesting, but the constant click-watch an ad repeat takes away from anything positive. We gave up on the game a few times, came back, and it just gets more ad heavy. We realize developers have to make money, but if people quit playing, you dont make anything.
Whats the point of playing a trivia game that asks you a question, but gives you the answer by flashing the correct choice?
Love the game, but it crashes all the time.
This is a fun game if you like trivia. You can solve everything without having to spend real money. You may need a bit of patience but its not as bad as in some other game. The one point of improvement is to give a chance to report a question during a job or mission after the job/mission is done. We discovered a mistake with a question but only after the answer falsely got marked wrong. At that point we couldnt report the question anymore. So there needs to be some form of extended period or something after answering the question to report it. As it is atm, the new question pops up immediately, and you cant do anything. (Btw, the wrong answer was that the Harry Potter book series is divided into 8 books. Its not. Its 7 books, 8 movies. Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is primarily a screen play that was published after the fact. Its not a book thats part of the original series. At least the question should be specified if nothing else. Also, yall should take out any question about R. Kelly. The dude is a convicted pedophile.)
Great game, fun quests and questions but crashes every time you claim a reward and then frequently at other times. Looking forward to an update.
The game gives the the answer half the time. For instance itll ask which of these actors starred in wolf of Wall Street and then there will be a picture of Leonardo DiCaprio.
You put Helsinki as New Zealand 4 Stars Also could you add more cities.
We like the game, but half the time it doesnt give credit for keys when we gain them answering diploma questions. Very frustrating.
latest updated review – we are still playing this game years after downloading it and we very much appreciate that new cities are still being added. With that being said we have reached out to the developers on different platforms with questions or concerns about in app issues and have never gotten a response. We feel that for a game where people spend real, in world, money there should be much better communication with the team. If there is an issue that requires attention or a concern people spending their money should have a better way to contact the owner/developer for help. We have searched everywhere online for help and cannot find any answers to our questions. We feel the developer has enough users (and now monthly subscribers) that they should create a page with all the possible gameplay information, helpful tips and tricks, and a contact for questions. We love this game. We think it is great for trivia lovers who also like traveling. We have been playing it for a few weeks now and so far we like almost everything. We have an issue with the job thing because we were turned down for 10 out of 11 jobs we tried to get in a matter of two in game days. That seems a little ridiculous that you get turned down that much. How are you supposed to earn coins or diplomas if you keep getting turned down? We are not happy with this newest update (June) either. We saved a lot of coins (20,000) to pay to upgrade our guitar so we could earn a lot more tickets. Now there is a chance we won’t get tickets in our guitar case? We never would have done that if we knew you were going to update it a week later and take our ticket earning potential away. Also, one of our favorite parts was watching the ads to earn scratch tickets and now even though the banner still says "free" there is no option to watch videos anymore and we are unable to clear the little "1" from the screen which is driving us bonkers. All in all we are happy with the game and that the developers are trying to give us new content just not happy with some of the changes.
The concept of this app was cute, and we would still be playing if it were not for the fact that the app kept crashing. We would be in the middle of an action and the screen would close. We would reopen the program only to find it would do the same thing. We tried uninstalling and reinstalling to see if that fixed the problem.. No luck. ( no updates either) we eventually just deleted the app entirely. We would have given a higher rating if not for this problem.
The game seems like it would be fun if we had a way to read up on some what it is asking for. Its not fun not knowing or not having material to read about what they will ask.
We have enjoyed this game for years! It is highly educational but so fun you don’t realize you’re learning. Being disabled we can’t travel but with backpacker game it’s like virtual fun travel! It’s perfect for young and old! Thank you for making this game!
We really enjoyed this game when it first came out as we love to travel and it brought back fun memories. However, we have all the cities, all five stars and nowhere else to go, everything is locked, so keep hoping for an upgrade to fix this, but its now been six months…
Its annoying bc it happens multiple times before it plays.
HI IM SCUBY AND we RATE APPS! LETS SEE HOW HELPFUL THIS REVEIW CAN GET! HOLD ON THIS REVEIW AND MARK IT HELPFUL! BTW THIS GAME IS OK BUT IT GETS BORING OVER TIME. SCUBY OUT.
We used to love this game. We didnt mind having to do sone independent study for earning the monuments since you dont get any information. Lately the backpack doesnt work. We cant upgrade it and have enough money to do so. The instructions given do not work. Also, the special events dont show up on time. We lost three days on the valentine event because it didnt appear. We cant progress until our backpack is updated. What a waste. The developers do not seem helpful at all. When we contacted them they simply repeated steps we have already tried. We do not want to uninstall app and lose all our progress. Time to find something else. We tried to contact via Facebook to get help but discovered it is a private and elite group so we can add being snubbed as well.
It didnt work. It sounded really fun, but, even though there is enough wi-fi connectivity to submit this review, there is not, apparently, enough to play the game. If you could make this game able to be played offline, any time any where, it would be 1000% better.
We enjoyed playing this game and plowed through a good many countries, learning all sorts of things then the game developers decided to make recruiting other people to play the game- not just invite, but actively require the people you invite actually get hooked into playing. If you didnt do it you could not progress to other cities. They also upped the amount of coins needed to buy items to also complete the tasks required. Enough coins required that you would either have to play for days or part with quite a bit of real money (50$) a accrue the coinage necessary to progress. They lost us after that.
We can log in and collect coins but then it kicks us out.
Great game but we are not receiving keys when we get them in the jobs.
Its a nice game the only problem is that the game dont give you the opportunity to learn about the history before quizzing you on the country you may or may not have been to.
Love the game, but there is a frustrating issue. The City Tasks differ between the city overview page and the travel book. Because of this you arent awarded stars when you in fact complete some tasks.
We’ve been playing this for years and like it but as of today the app will not open. We click on it, it starts to open and then automatically closes. We have tried shutting our phone on and off a few times. What can we do without losing all our progress?
Game is entertaining as the world gets traversed. But one ends up answering the same knowledge questions over and over. Their database is basically very limited. And after a few months you run out of cities. The part of meeting strangers and accomplishing tasks as a result is too simple. They ought to build in a mystery or something. There is also nothing deep to the store guy part, its just random. We think the game might appeal to pre-teens. If you arent one you will be bored after awhile.
We couldnt make it past the introduction. It kept giving us the answers and was a slow intro and we just couldnt make it past that.
Love this game but there are too many glitches where the app freezes. We spent a whole hour watching ads for the guitar to get a full 9 tickets to complete a site and then the app crashed once we started the site questions. We had to start all over with 0 tickets :(
It is A great game it just needs more updates you get to the end and that it it.
We have learned so much about the world thanks to this game. Fun, challenging and educational. What more can you ask for.
Am we missing something? Im in Madrid and it looks like it is the last one.
We are learning a lot about different countries by playing this game. There are in house purchases but you can play without buying anything.
Can you PLEASE come up with some new jobs????
This game is kinda fun but not really.
This is a great game and we have learned a lot about so many different places by playing. The questions are difficult but not impossible. The questions are appropriate and not stupid. The game has great quests and is fun for people who enjoy learning fact.
Its hard to complete sights in a country you know nothing about and that you dont get much information on its a waste of time and tickets. Some travel costs to much , it shows jobs you have already completed. It no longer gives the choice of where to start we have to keep starting in Italy instead of Washington DC this game isnt what it used to be .
We like this game but it wont allow us to play on WiFi is that on purpose or a glitch?? Im not understanding why Im not allowed to play on WiFi our phone connection is slow and tends to take forever to load things it would just be easier if we could use this on WiFi… We guess until then Ill be deleting this game… Great Game tho!!
This game is terrific, until you run out of cities to visit and tasks for cities. New places need to be added,
