This is a very good game, but there are 2 main problems. For one, watching an ad when akinator guesses a rare character should not be required, and also, 2 times when i was trying to guess a not well known character, it said i was trying to steal and AKI award and changed my ranking from 60 to 3006! Why? Thats a cool feature and all but i was just trying to guess a rare character to get my rank up. Please change that.
Reviews for Akinator
I used to really love this app, I like the addition of daily challeges and i like the leaderboard. I can even deal with the constant ads and having to watch videos to see the guesses for premium characters but I dont like how there seems to be a limit on how many videos I can watch before the app just grays out the option and I can't find out if it guessed correctly.
I remembered this from my childhood as a free flash game. It's even better at guessing now. Problem is if you go above around twenty questions, it makes you watch an ad to go on. Until it stops letting you watch the ad and forces you to pay vip. I don't like paying for free things. Make your app cost money if you want people to pay for it. or just call it a demo version and have paying money unlock it. Don't lop off a bit of the game and call it "premium".
It's good, but the adds are horrible. I remember this game being the most fun thing ever with friends, but now you can't look up a character without it being "rare" and needing to watch a add or pay to see them, and in my experience, most times the adds dont even work and it just grays out the button even though I watched the adds. Such a good game thats fallen from its old glory, I'll be uninstalling.
Used to be simple and a great game to pass the time and guess with other people. Now, you guess a "rare character" which is the goal of the game and it either makes you pay to see the guess or watch an ad. The only problem is the ads dont even play. So you're forced to skip it and not even find out his guess. The game is ruined. It's time to to say goodbye to an old classic. RIP.
Great at first! And then... Loved playing it! Got 1st in the leaderboards, and tried really hard, then it said he thought I was faking it because I was answering too fast. I'm upset because he knocked me down to #238 from #1 place all because I was answering too fast! And another thing is sometimes it says I HAVE to pay to get a rare object, even though before it just let me watch an ad. It's frustrating and I'd rather spend my time doing something else at this point.
Had this years ago and it was super fun, guessed almost every one right, was completely free and then the other day I remembered it and downloaded it and the first character was a "vip" character. Anyways so figured I'd just watch an ad but the ad wouldn't work so after 5 minutes it did and my character was wrong. Also I got a gold award but when I went to check I didn't have one but I had the bronze ones I had won. Also it kept guesing that I was randomly pressing answers and I was not.
I find this app hilarious. I enjoy how it's able to find out what you're thinking about through the data that other users have given, but I find the most fun in finding characters, objects, and whatnot that it had never been told of before. Though, I don't really appreciate how if you trick it, it doesn't reward you. I think it should give you a reward for being able to have a completely new character/object/whatnot. 😂
Needs an option to opt out from the ranking/leaderboard system. I'm tired of getting penalized for falling for these "traps". I'm not trying to farm awards, I'm just curious on how rare whatever character the akinator recommends is. 9 times out of 10 I play again right afterwards to play my actual character. I'd rather just be able to play the game I've made in-app purchases on without worry of these frivolous penalties when I never wanted to compete in the first place!!
Really cool idea, large database of characters. The biggest issue I'm seeing, he doesn't ask enough questions to really pinpoint the character. Between that problem and him using the exact same questions in linear order, it makes it almost impossible to get the "black" level rewards on certain characters. If he jumps to conclusions super early like he often does, you can't continue because you won't be awarded if he doesn't guess it on the first try. That part doesn't really make sense.
