Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
We love this game so much its so fun but sometimes its inappropriate.
This game is really fun, but there is one problem that almost all the players have been facing. Loading. When you open the app it takes about 3 minutes just to pop up the front page, and when you click on the rooms button you must wait at least 3 more minutes for the rooms to pop up same with joining a room. Gartic, please fix this bug so the game can be faster! Thank you, have a wonderful morning/afternoon/or night. Edit-9/8/25: Game is experiencing severe lag and loading time when entering the game is about 10+ minutes please fix this issue.
Us encanta esta aplicacin pero algunas personas son muy agresivas y en el chat empiezan a decir cosas malas eso no us gust.
We really like drawing, but if we get the promt cat. Im gonna be happy.
Also needs a filter because the stuff people can just say is crazy.
We're trying to import a foto of google which is a kedamono pfp and it doesn't let us can you please fix this.
The game itself is super fun but its full of racists :/ a liiiitlle annoying.
This game is the one we've been looking for we're into art and video games and this is just both combined into a beautiful masterpiece.
A very fun game, we love Gartic phone. Just wish it saved the points we earn and maybe get trophys for number of correct guesses or something.
Very good game chil for when youre bored nice game do not play the nock off BY: SOMEONE.
We mean its fun but we thought it was the real gartic.phone but its good you should play it but we just got a bit sad when we found out it was the wrong one and people keep vote kicking random people for no reason at all and its not fair you should make an update about the vote kick thing you should put on the like why do you want to vote kick this person? What did the person do for you to vote kick them? Pls make and update am sorry if this seems mean Im not trying to be mean but it will be nice if you did do that to the vote kick thing btw love the themes and color theme of the app.
Its usually causual, but some time we hate someone.
This app is really fun and amazing! We love this app.
We have been looking for this particular type of game for a while now. No other game is quite like it. We love playing with people and trying to guess their drawings. There is only 1 ad video after youve played a long game. No crazy pop up ads.
Im literally not gonna complain, Im just asking for an option to add your own photo as your profile picture without signing into google other than that great game.
So as usual we were looking for another game and then this popped up so we downloaded it and played for the first time. Omg it is the best game ever if you need to kill theme get this!!best game ever.
We love it bro this is like Kahoolawe but the fun it to far.
Its actually a genuinely fun game that CAN be wholesome. But beware PARENTS, this game is not for children because the chat lets you say whatever you want, unless they cant read and you just help them draw or something we would recommend a different game. Also, you should be able to friend people in the game, and when nobody guesses the drawing it should tell you what it was.
Please read this before scrolling, us and our friend were playing this game and we saw the options for crazy themes so we decided to play it, but as soon as we joined it asked us to draw racist and offensive things and we dont think thats what the game put as options but Im still confused on how it happened so if somebody can please respond that would be great.
A fun Pictionary game but it has a bug after its our turn drawing our keyboard wont pop back up when we want to put in an answer so Im forced to reboot it and lose progress our device is a iPad Pro please fix this.
This game is really fun until you finally get in a lobby and a bunch of bots join and vote kick everyone in there . It makes it almost unplayable , you need to be able to report individual profiles.
We love this game but how do we change these avatars into your pictures? Please tell us how someday.
The game is great the thing is, the people are very inappropriate. We think honestly the only thing that makes this game bad is the fact people can say whatever they want in the chat with no filters, not a safe game for kids at all with all these immature people making inappropriate jokes or saying rude things to others. If you are a parent we recommend not letting your kids play this. If you do please take caution of the chat because there is a lot of creeps and sickos and they say awful terrible things. We cant even imagine a poor baby reading the things these people say its terrible.
This game is cool and all, but the only thing people chat about is how much the kill and have sex with people. A lot of slurs are said, and we just think that this game should have a swear filter so this stops happening please.
We love it but we do wonder for the game option is there a rainbow friends option if no pls add it if yes we have not seen it yet.
So, we rated the stars 3 because when your in games and they draw bad stuff they dont report it when they draw it we have to and they should have cameras on the art work so there wont be bad stuff in plus what if theres kids in the group.
Someone called NOT A WRITING APP called us the b word and the n word, we did nothing to them. We think its just a bot, but, its very mean. Overall this game it very fun. Just please censor curse words.
We love watching Gartic Phone videos and was hoping that this was a close mobile version, we were wrong. This is completely different and not even close to the PC game. We wish there was a good mobile version for that but there isnt. For a app by itself its a pretty toxic app. We got harassed by people for being a lesbian furry and Therian. The art part of the game is not very good for actually drawing and you have to press a button to open a thing where you have to find the undo button and even then you can only undo twice in a row.
As long as no single soul has a Sus user thats fine.
Its fine but we have a new mod to it You can actually friend ppl and text them When the owner is playing they should be able to ban/kick the selected person from joining You can look at anyone you have played with and be able to friend them It should say [name] found it! Instead of hit Bc we have seen some servers say hit what? Hit our pu- u know.
This is a fun game except when our acct got hacked multiple times. As Im in game our chat starts spamming inappropriate things. It says that Im the one saying these bad things but we never typed anything nsfw in game. It also happened to other users in the chat, suddenly their acct would start spamming inappropriate messages. Ruined the app for us. Probably fine if you dont play with random users.
The app is honestly one of the most fun Ive used in quite a while. There needs to be something in place to censor certain users, however; it is not a truly safe space until specific words are banned and kick out the user from the room.
It could add more also this is a knockoff of garlic phone so we highly recommend you dont download.
We were just playing and we seen the chat vote max we were max and we were not doing anything inappropriate trying to kick us for no reason but great game.
Could you please add modes from the browser version.
Garlic is a a game that you dont usually get on the App Store and if you think there are bugs thats not our problem.
There are people who come in just to troll. There needs to be accounts that get created as well as people getting banned for cheating as well as using abusive and offensive language and drawings. People say and do anything which can ruin the experience of such a fun game.
We see one annoying thing about the app that should be fixed, when someone is drawing and no one gets the answer please show us what the answer was. Other than that the new update is nice.
This game is awesome with real people, no ads, and isnt really inappropriate unlike other guess the drawing or games like that.
This game is amazing and masterpiece. Thank you very much for doing this, but there is one thing we wish you to develop to a better level "Sign up an account" Why Facebook option is the only option we wish more options.
/\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ . 4my sweetie 4my sweetie 4my sweetie.
We are addict to it. But we prefer the normal one. But the other one there isnt for iPad.
40 Days is awesome But we still love it.
It a good game but it wont let us chips our room like it does on pc but whatever.
We love this app.we think its so colorful and enjoyable.
This game is what we play when we bored or anytime if we have our phone with us this is our go to game all the time please respond.
Its kind a hard for us even though we like it so much fun though and its kind of hard but its a little bit easy.
