Community Insight:
Its a great game but we wish cobra Kai and umbrella academy was in it.
There is no category for Bojack Horseman.
It does not work. We clicked the blue play button and it stays on the same screen. No loading signal just same background. We deleted app and reinstalled but got the same thing.
This games is very fun to play with family or friends! It also has instant replay which is so fun to watch! You do have to have a Netflix account to play.
When we open the app, and press play im met with a loading screen that refuses to load. :/.
This game is with considering on how it works but its just missing a lot of shows and should add shows that teens talk about too! Like Outer Banks, Riverdale like romance but not a game show romance type thing.
Please add singing out categories like from sing on the show.
Its overall ok but there are so few options and missing many classic and loved shows and movies like Arcane, Black Mirror, and so so many more. Some options are vague too. It just lacks effort. Like they didnt even try to add classics. Just the easy ones. Also it is very confusing to put pass or go to the next. It doesnt teach you how. And when we figured out how, it doesnt work sometimes. We would tilt the phone up, down, left, right, and nothing would happen! No other bugs or malfunctions though.
It was fun to play lost intrest after a while but good and it was so long to install it kept on adding seconds to install.
This is such a fun game to play with friends its really fun and would definitely recommend (only for Netflix users).
We mean yeah its pretty much what youd expect the decks are fine, but there are an insane amount of bugs and malfunctions. Such as kicking you out of youre deck while playing a game, not letting you open a deck, etc. So its a very meh game in general then it needs to complicate itself by having bugs, its not worth getting.
This game has clearly shifted ownership a few times over the years. This version does not meet the same level of fun we experienced while playing previous versions with larger libraries of decks. Most decks now only have to do with netflix. Appealing for a binge watch streaming buffs maybe? But it would be nice to see some regular decks sprinkled in as well like hollywood actorsfood sports farm animals literally anything but a netflix series specific deck. It makes the game impossible to play unless everyone in the group has watched that one specific show. Id also like to note that decks bought in previous versions of the game no longer exist anywhere. There is no way to redeem purchases. No way to enjoy the really fun party decks like the adult supervsion and harry potter. Money wasted, awesome. We used to love whipping out this game while waiting in long lines or at a lull in a party. Now its sadly just a one star review&delete kind of situation. Bummer.
Earlier today there was a mouse in our room and we got our sister her name is scout to help us with our mouse and then when a broom we whacked the frick out of that mouse and it escaped and then us and our sister downloaded this game and it turned out we needed a Netflix subscription.
Downloaded the app and opened it only to be met with a loading circle that never completes. Waiting 5 minutes and the circle didnt fill up at all.
