MarketWatch Stock Market Game Reviews

Seeing the recent reviews after downloading MarketWatchStockMarketGame a few days ago, I strongly agreed and felt that I had to submit a review in the hopes MarketWatchStockMarketGame developers actually get off their butts and fix it. MarketWatchStockMarketGame overall is great (in my limited experience); but, Jesus Christ, MarketWatchStockMarketGame is so poorly optimized. I can only use MarketWatchStockMarketGame for about 1 MINUTE max before it freezes. Within that singular minute, as each second passes, MarketWatchStockMarketGame gets slower and laggier, and my phone starts heating up significantly. I frequently have to, with much effort, close MarketWatchStockMarketGame , and turn off the phone to bring back stability. It’s not just limited to app usage. MarketWatchStockMarketGame causes your phone as a whole to completely lag and freeze. Having MarketWatchStockMarketGame open in background causes your other apps to lag with constant input delays when typing. Even have difficulty turning phone off, as well as turning it on. I want to use MarketWatchStockMarketGame, and I desperately hope these issues are fixed, but by god I have never had an app perform this poorly not only on MarketWatchStockMarketGame itself but affecting my phone overall. DO NOT DOWNLOAD UNTIL IT IS FIXED!

I’m on an 11pro, nearly two years old, I’ve NEVER had slowdowns on my phone until I’ve opened MarketWatchStockMarketGame. The backend on MarketWatchStockMarketGame is so poorly optimised even typing in it is a problem. I’m forced to use this for a project, but directly after I will be uninstalling. This is inexcusable, and to see so many reviews reflecting this without a hint of fixing these problems is unforgivable.

I thought this is something fun I could suggest to my clients. Maybe they could learn about investing and have fun at the same time.

When I finally got to the part where I could actually start playing the game, MarketWatchStockMarketGame told me that I was blocked. There’s absolutely no reason I should’ve been blocked.

Neither I nor my clients have time for this.

Figure out your algorithm, and maybe I’ll download this again... Until then I won’t be suggesting it to anyone.

MarketWatchStockMarketGame constantly freezes and when it’s left open in the background my phone constantly freezes as well. I’ve never seen an app affect the rest of my phone experience so badly.

I’m on a brand new iPhone 16 Pro Max and MarketWatchStockMarketGame causes my phone to overheat and freeze within about a minute of use. I don’t have this issue with any other app, and it appears other users are experiencing the exact same issue. Please fix this.

I’ve been playing this game for many years. I decided to download MarketWatchStockMarketGame because going to the website everyday was tiresome. I downloaded MarketWatchStockMarketGame , joined a game, and started trading. I have an iPhone 13 Mini and have never had any software issues or glitches until I downloaded this game. Problem (bug?): After making a trade or placing an order, my phone will freeze and I won’t be able to do anything on it until the game crashes. Can’t even use the buttons on my phone. This is a reoccurring issue for me, and I’m certain I’m not the only one. I’ll continue to play, but the bugs just get frustrating to deal with when I’m making a trade (buying, selling, etc). Anyway this can be addressed?

EDIT:
Guess the developers didn’t care so much about the feedback I gave above. Still have that very same issue. Still not resolved. Had enough and just deleted MarketWatchStockMarketGame altogether. Problem solved! 👍

Phone froze IMMEDIATELY upon installation (for the first time ever). Oddly enough, I had to disconnect access to the internet before I was able to uninstall MarketWatchStockMarketGame . No idea what kind of skullduggery one would have to program into an iPhone app to illicit those symptoms; however, what it did not illicit was warm and fuzzy feelings.

I’ve been playing this game on my browser and thought downloading MarketWatchStockMarketGame would be a good idea but MarketWatchStockMarketGame won’t even let me in. I hit get started and it immediately sent me to a screen that says you have been blocked. Apparently my browser is suspicious or something? The point is I have literally done nothing except download MarketWatchStockMarketGame and hit get started and it won’t let me in. I’ve tried deleting it and re-downloading it several times and it’s the same every time. The game is fun so I guess I’m gonna have to stick to using the browser, but MarketWatchStockMarketGame itself does not work.

As others have stated, MarketWatchStockMarketGame seems great but is poorly (or not at all) optimized. I have an iPhone 12 Pro Max that has never had any issues before. The game freezes and lags horribly, making it almost impossible to operate within MarketWatchStockMarketGame .

Once I backed out of the game, the rest of my phone was also unusually laggy and I noticed it was beginning to overheat. Needless to say that as soon as I deleted MarketWatchStockMarketGame , all these problems immediately disappeared with it.

Hopefully MarketWatchStockMarketGame is optimized for operation once again because it’s definitely got potential. It’s simply not practical (or likely safe) for use as of right now (March 6th, 2025).

After reading other reviews , I had to make this one because I thought I was the only one. I am trying to learn how to invest and figured a simulator would be good. Overall, MarketWatchStockMarketGame content itself seems good but it's a same it's so exhausting to use. As soon as I open MarketWatchStockMarketGame my phone gets so slow. It lags just clicking on other tab in MarketWatchStockMarketGame . It gets really annoying and makes me not want to even use it. It's a shame because I would love to use MarketWatchStockMarketGame to learn but the slow time is so exhausting. It heats up my phone too. Hopefully they fix it so but seeing as I see reviews from April stating the same thing, seems whoever is in charge isn't taking the constructive criticism

Please optimize MarketWatchStockMarketGame . This is the only app where every time I open it and create a game, my phone begins freezing. The keypad freezes periodically. Clicking on text boxes are followed by 4-5 second delays before the box finally lags its self up on the screen. Even trying to close MarketWatchStockMarketGame takes a good 4-5 seconds for the laggy response app to catch up and finally close its self before finally allowing my phone to return to its normal operating abilities. Terrible experience.

Using an iPhone pro 11 and MarketWatchStockMarketGame makes my phone get super hot and starts to freeze up. MarketWatchStockMarketGame is usable in about 60 second spurts before I have to close it.

For whatever reason MarketWatchStockMarketGame is extremely poorly optimized. It lags my phone out and causes the music im listening to to become choppy.

I think my iPhone 12 is fairing better than the other reviewers, but it still lags the heck out after trading.

I teach a stock trading class with MarketWatchStockMarketGame. SCHG split on Oct 9, but the shares and price have not been adjusted, and it’s Nov 3. So my account shows a huge loss when it should show a big gain. I have emailed several depts and called many numbers for MarketWatch, but so far no one has fixed it. This makes MarketWatchStockMarketGame rather useless if splits are not adjusted in a timely manner.

The overall software and function of MarketWatchStockMarketGame is great. You can trade and sell stocks normally like a demo account. HOWEVER, after about 1 minute everything freezes. I could barely even sign up because it kept freezing. My phone is in perfect condition and never had any issues before. But MarketWatchStockMarketGame makes the whole phone software lag delay or freeze. I often have to just try to close MarketWatchStockMarketGame and shut off my phone for about a minute.

It breaks my phone every time I try to search on it. My hole phone breaks
I can’t even turn it off.

The game is great but MarketWatchStockMarketGame often crashes while making trades.

Insane game to play to get to know stocks. Also a good time killer and fun to play during a class.

Love this game. Don’t know why it’s not more popular
