Trivia Crack (No Ads) Reviews

by Ntowl03

I’ve played trivia crack for a long time. I bought the ad free version years ago, and over the last four years they keep adding more and more of their own ads. Always trying to get you to buy tickets, coins, or spins. You’ll be in the middle of going and an ad will pop up. Always in a spot where you could accidentally click purchase on something because you were about to select a character. They don’t care the players hate the ads, as I see there are numerous reviews complaining about them. In fact, I think they’ve increased them. Also, over the years it’s become more and more political (leaning Republican) and right wing oriented. The verbiage of the questions and photos chosen always tries to glorify the right wing agenda and racists. Calling a confederate general talented? Really? When I play a trivia game I don’t want someone’s political agenda constantly being tossed at me. If you offer a game for everyone then it should be apolitical. I’m over this game. Deleted. I’m testing if Trivia360 is better. So far so good.

The requests for spending money even after you bought the no ads version is borderline predatory. Randomly after getting a question wrong it’ll ask you to pay to get a much easier question, and it puts it right where the continue button is so if you’re trying to get through your games fast (limited time like me) you can constantly accidentally click the payments (not money but in game currency that costs real money sometimes) and accidentally spend all of your tickets or gold on it without being asked for permission or confirmation. Was saving tons of tickets up only for this to happen. To think I paid for it to do this to me.

The irony in being “no ads” that you paid for but they predatorily push you to buy more add ons and stuff is beyond annoying let alone trick you into accidentally buying stuff with currency you save up by putting it on the continue button. How is this legal tbh

This game is so tedious. I’m so tired of all the repeated questions, the horrific spelling and grammatical mistakes, religious questions in the history section instead of art, and the length of time I have to take my turn. I spend most of my time within TriviaCrackNoAds reporting questions rather than playing.
There is nothing new in TriviaCrackNoAds anymore. I have 3 million in coins and over 5k in diamonds. I have all of the cards for my album. I literally have nothing to spend the diamonds and coins on within TriviaCrackNoAds .
Having less than 24 hours to play each game gets really frustrating. Sometimes you literally have to stop whatever it is that you’re doing to go and play your games. That’s not a fun thing to do. And games are supposed to be fun but TriviaCrackNoAds has lost a lot of its fun.
And the new form of greed. I open TriviaCrackNoAds and I’m asked for money. I end my turn, do my free spin, then I’m asked for money. After every single game. I answer the daily question then I’m asked for money. It’s gotten very old very fast.

Every time I think I can give a better review Trivia crack does something else to make me give a bad one. I felt there was no too many ads before. I decided to get the ad free app. Now I have to use my coins to get a second chance when before I got to watch a video. I have limited coins. Those coins we have to use to use the power ups. Now I’ve paid money for no ads and have to use MORE coins. No, don’t think so. I tried to go and I to the free version, and now I can’t connect my account and lost all my progress. So I have no choice but to do the ads free version where I have to spend all my coins. So if you’re going to make us use coins for everything after paying for an app then make it easier to earn coins.

Update: ok I’ve now given this 1 star because now I can’t connect my account to trivia crack at all. It keeps saying my Facebook is linked to a different email, but the email that’s displayed isn’t one I’ve ever used. If this doesn’t get fixed I’m done with this game and will want a refund for paying for no ads

I used to thoroughly enjoy this game. Now everything is about money grabbing tactics. I paid for the ad-free version because I do believe in supporting the products I enjoy. But now they stick a piggy bank on your main screen and make you believe that if you’re patient enough, answer 200 questions correctly, you’ll be rewarded. But alas, you can only crack it if you pay. Pay pay pay.

Additionally, many of the questions are littered with spelling and grammatical errors. There is no real variety to the questions either. For sports, you’re definitely getting a football question. For history, you’re definitely getting something about one the King George’s. Science, just know the periodic table. Pop, just know Marvel and DC comics. Geography, learn the Great Lakes or what podunk cities are/aren’t in which state. And art... apparently the only thing to Art is colors. You don’t need to know anything past rudimentary art class, like which colors mixed together make orange. So exciting!

I will finish my current games with folks and then find another trivia app. This makes me sad, as it was such a simple pleasure after a long work day. But the developers also don’t seem to care about the complaints of the customers supporting their product.

I love trivia! I enjoy playing this game a lot & it’s nice playing it without ads. I’m definitely hooked. If I could change anything about it, it would be for them to spell check their trivia questions & use capitol letters when necessary & use correct punctuation. No trivia questions should have 6 question marks in it & I can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen people’s names in all lowercase letters. It’s Jane Doe, not “jane doe”. Also, some of the questions in this game are just straight up stupid, I’m assuming it’s people who do not work for TriviaCrackNoAds creating them, but I wish they would be pickier about which ones actually get put in the game. Or perhaps fix the trivia question & answers up a bit to look professional. Not all of the questions are that bad, but a good majority of them are. Enough to slightly get on my nerves, but that could just be me.

I do think TriviaCrackNoAds is worth the $2. It’s fun & addicting. It’s a rare occasion I don’t play it at least once a day. Hopefully the quality of questions improves in the future!

Oh & one more thing. Don’t exit out in the middle of a pic duel or any part of the game where you continuously answer questions otherwise you will have to delete the game and reinstall it. I’ve had to do it 3 times because of it. Just exiting out of TriviaCrackNoAds & restarting your phone does not help it. Until you delete & reinstall TriviaCrackNoAds it will not stop claiming there’s a problem with your internet connection.

The game is enjoyable, but the fact that there is no real formal review of questions makes it annoying...many repeated questions, questions that are worded poorly, questions with errors and stupid questions: I realize it’s a “trivia” game, but the level of trivial facts is just ridiculous at times...like all the questions regarding the periodic table (atomic weights of elements? Sorry...graduated from high school 35 years ago...don’t know, don’t care... and the number of questions of where some podunk town is that no one ever heard of...who cares?! What I don’t get is how these questions passed the 85% approval rating. Which leads me to one other annoying thing about this game. I have suggested 20 questions...several that have that 85% approval rating that are still waiting for approval...not sure when that happens...and, sure it’s my opinion, but several that are much better than many “approved” questions that don’t have the 85%... ok, done with the rant.

I downloaded TriviaCrackNoAds because the top review displayed to me speaks highly of its voiceover accessibility. Unfortunately, TriviaCrackNoAds falls rather short of such a glowing review on that front -- there are elements that are poorly labeled as to not let you know what you're tapping, the card machine is a jumbled confusion, many questions that contain images e.g. "Who painted this?" appear despite there being a setting to not display questions with images, and the cursor jumps around wildly (you can't simply flick from the top of the screen to the bottom without repeatedly returning to the top). I appreciate that they tried, a bit, to make it accessible, but it feels like they gave up somewhere in the middle of the project. Other than that, the game itself is really fun, the questions are interesting and varied, and the system for adding and removing them seems to work very well

I am a VoiceOver user, and not all of the elements are displayed on the screen with VoiceOver enabled. You can't go back if you accidentally get into a place where you didn't mean to go, there's just random different things on the homescreen, and creating new games with people isn't the most accessible. The in-game experience could be better, but it works...half the time. Creating questions in the question factory is less than pleasant. I have to enable the screen recognition feature to find the buttons to input my answers. I have to use screen recognition pretty much everywhere except for when I'm actually in a game with someone. This game would be more enjoyable, if these accessibility problems could be improved.
When I get to the create new game screen, I can select the game mode that I want, but when it shows the list of suggested friends that I could play, none of the elements in that section are read buy voiceover. I can flick to an element, but it won't read. Please fix.

Update 2: Now I’m just mad! I was IN THE MIDDLE OF A QUESTION when an ad came up for a pack of right answers, coins, etc. By the time I dismissed the ad, my question timed out and I lost the round. This is getting out of control. I’m dropping my rating until I start seeing fewer of these ads!
Update: What the heck with all the ads for in app purchases?!? I purchased the ad free version because I did not want to be constantly asked to buy things. I get that these ads are different, but they are still ADS! It’s bad enough when I have to dismiss an ad for in app purchases between every turn, but it’s gotten to the point where I’m having to dismiss these annoying ads after nearly every answer! It’s driving me crazy…please, knock it off! I don’t want to buy a crap ton of coins and right answers, STOP ASKING!
Original Review: I love TriviaCrackNoAds, always have. I’ve played for years and still enjoy keeping my mind active with this game. Might I make one small suggestion, however? Please allow for friends to be removed from the friends list! TriviaCrackNoAds keeps sending me a notification suggesting that I should show one friend in particular that I am smarter than she is. The problem is, my friend passed away over a year ago.

The questions need to be vetted out by those running TriviaCrackNoAds and not the community of players. I’m amazed at how many errors there are with misspelled words, bad grammar, lack of punctuation, and proper nouns not capitalized. Also, I feel that the questions need to be fact checked. It’s easy to challenge an answer during a classic game but there is no way to challenge one in the rest of the games.

I love the Survival and Triviatopics game, but some of the questions are way too long to finish reading before you have to answer. There are a couple of questions that are not finished because they are too long.

There is a question that is not finished in the Pixar movies category of Triviatopics. The question that is asked is, “Who is this pictured”? There is no one In the picture so you can’t even possibly know the answer. There is another question that has a misspelled answer. “Where did Mike and Sully meet”? The answer in the game is Collage! Again, because of the misspelled word, the answer is technically wrong since this spelling means something completely different.

These are just two examples of what I can remember. Someone needs to do an overhaul of these questions.

I love this game. I’ve been playing it on and off for years and just recently purchased the ad free version. Just a few issues I’ve noticed.... first off, the amount of coins it costs to get another chance at a question or something is ridiculous especially when you only get 300 for winning a game. And then on the tournaments challenge..... it clearly says “get to the TOP 1000 to win the big prize” and I’ve spent thousands and thousands of coins playing in it and I’ve gotten to TOP 1000 twice and gotten to TOP 900 and TOP 800 and I haven’t won anything. So I’m guessing that’s just a hoax to get you to spend your coins?... it needs to be fixed please guys. Thank you. Other than those couple of problems, I love the game and if the issues are fixed, I will definitely keep playing!!

Even tho this game (and after a small payment) has no ads anymore but there are still pop ups (not about advertising) which show up when I tap the wrong answer, the first pop up says "NEED ANOTHER CHANCE?" (and of course That 1000 gold I have to pay and that paying button I clicked it several times by fault and my gold got wasted), and the second time (which is not that logic) you tell me to spin for free while waiting my turn. But who said in these 10 seconds it's going to be my turn?? It's annoying trust me because when I play this game I play it for two hours nonstop I know these pop ups are made for helping people to get a second chance etc but I personally don't care if I lose my turn or not because I always have turns waiting for me... So plrase fix this time wasting thing... I suggest you to put a toggle in the settings of the game if you want to ask for a second chance or a free spin... please because it's so annoying that I feel I paid for nothing considering these two pop ups as ads!!

I LOVE this game and I’ve played it a lot lately with friends. One problem I have come across however is that in the free version, you can opt to watch a video to get an extra spin before you lose your turn, whereas in the paid one, there is no option to try again unless you have enough tickets or coins. This has allowed my friend who didn’t pay for the no ad version to have more chances each time he plays than me who paid for TriviaCrackNoAds . This has allowed him to win the past few games as he opts to watch the video for an extra turn every time(as I would). I know it’s the no ad version but I wish I could pay to get the rest of the ads to go away but still get the chance to watch a video for a free extra spin. Hope this is changed in the paid version soon. Love the game though and how well it’s done.

If you’re looking for a fun trivia game, you found it, the add free feature definitely is worth it for a better experience, (you can even play with multiple people) but.... I’m going to go ahead and start with the most annoying thing, every time I get a question wrong, this sign pops up for 1000 coins or 120 tickets to redo your turn and continue playing, but the button is right where you would press, so I’ve lost many many coins because of this clearly money grabbing feature (so you buy more coins) The second annoying thing is that some of the questions are inaccurate (the questions that were wrong were due to the year) Either way, I still enjoy this trivia game, I just watch out for that annoying button (already lost several thousand coins 👏)

by WarKingRoy

Love TriviaCrackNoAds , play every day, really love the new HQ Live game; o even like the time you play, however, it is the same a few minutes before the game starts as it is when the game is about to begin, so if one is not glued to the screen, one could easily miss the beginning of the game.
I suggest you give some sort of “10 [or 15] seconds to game” announcement or a buzzer or something, so if people are doing something else while waiting, they don’t miss that first question.
Other than that - great job. Questions come one after the other, so no time is wasted between with incessant & unnecessary chatter (as in that other game, which I also like and play, but which takes up a LOT of time).

Thought i would update my review. They decided they were not making enough money on the coins. They change the game without any warning and instead of being able to continue a game with coins. They want you to buy some new credit they have made up to be able to get the second chance.
Total RIP OFF !!!!

I think that The way you just went from having the second chance you could purchase on a turn with coins to some new type of thing where you have to purchase credits is absolutely horrible I think it’s a very poor business decision. You get people to buy the coins and then you make them obsolete basically for using them for everything. And you find a new way to have to make people spend money. My personal opinion is ITunes should re-evaluate your company selling games through iTunes.

I love this game, so much i was tired of ads & bought the ad free version ! I wanted to suggest a couple ideas that I feel, & hopefully others, would improve the reward system ! You all know that free spin you get after getting a wrong answer ? That wheel should definitely be updated ! Considering there are minor text bugs for whenever you get gems, etc., it’ll read &format/3 instead of “3 gems”. & I definitely feel like one heart should be removed from the wheel simply because eventually you’ll receive hearts on top of hearts & there really isn’t much to do with them other than play more games. But let’s be real, 52 hearts on top of the 15 games you’re already playing is just a waste of hearts. & COINS ! Definitely feel like there should be other ways to earn coins much faster. Perhaps a reward system, or something that mocks a “battle pass” as seen in other popular games. I feel that would really draw much more attention to users & definitely keep them more entertained. Especially with this pandemic!

This game is the best! No time wasted here! It entertains and gives the mind information and brain exercise in a super fun way! Who knew that you could have so much fun while doing something good for you?! The variety of ways to play especially “Survivor” when pitted against 10 random players with 10 seconds to read and respond helps the ability to focus and process. The original game that permits 20 seconds to answer if needed is also great fun with special hints such as 50-50 or second chance on more difficult questions. The variety of ways to play and the various rewards keep things interesting. I look forward to the daily question and blind random choice award each morning! This game is a healthy diversion from the stress of life that also promotes respectful friendships. On occasion, when a question is miss-worded, spelled incorrectly, or simply wrong the ability to report it is appreciated. No complaints!

I really like the game and it's very challenging for me. I am an older person and it's hard for me to remember things. I think this game is a good challenge for me. I have two people that I play with my daughter and my husband and it's really fun. The big BUT for me is that when the answer is not correct you don't leave the correct answer up there long enough for me to get it! You took care of that. Thank you!!!

But now I notice that when it’s fun and a challenge to get the cards and e’s I really work to get them. Not any more because you upped what it takes to get them. Not I’m disappointed and think you have jacked it up to much! It’s not fun anymore! If I weren’t playing with my best friend and my cousin, I would stop playing all together now!
