It's good. It teaches us about different techniques uses to spread misinformation. It's fun to go through and with a good aim behind it.

Great App, teaches people about serious issues of misinformation. Highly recommended for anyone at all ages. All in all, this app was needed as misinformation is on the rise.

This is so good! And so funny. And I learnt - alot. But my only criticism is that perhaps that it might not land with the demographic really in need of the reasoning skills upgrade.

Sounds like a fun game. It's too bad that, despite my best efforts, I could do no more than sign in. I was never able to "take a quiz", and given that I have a pretty good phone, it's not 'cuz of my specs.

The 'survey' result doesn't load

Super game for older kids and teens! Teaches critical thinking through logical fallacies and humour. Free support material for teachers. 4 stars because some graphics block words, and a bug is blocking signup and login to save progress.

Doesn't do anything. Clicking on "Take a test" leads to a screen with nothing on it except a "learn more techniques" link that goes back to the home page. The other buttons do the same.

Starts by giving you the basics of each, then breaks them down once one of each is done. Great for sharpening skills at identifying the specific issues in the usual arguments. Definitely refreshing

Love the goal here, but really buggy so far. Couldn't sign in from mobile. Asked me to enter email, then sent a link/code which I received, but no place to enter the code in the app. I don't want to click the link until I trust this unknown developer. So I opened it in incognito browser. Started a fake experts game, but when I reach "upcoming quiz" section, pressing "next" does nothing. I'm hopeful for this game, but one star for now

I love the idea, but so far nothing works. I choose "Take a Quiz" and arrive at a blank red screen with only a "Learn more denial techniques" button on it. Press that and I go back to the "Take a Quiz" or "Sign Out" page. Infinite loop...

I like the idea. The implementation leaves room to improvement. Most answers are too obvious. And at least the German version isn't faultless (e.g. neighbour Frank question). Personally I would like it to be more solution focused instead of the other way round.

Doesnt work offline. It would be nice to have an option to practice looking for a certain fallacy, instead of having everything thrown into general quiz. After unlocking a lot, its difficult to practice. And the Research data collecting quiz doesnt even launch.

A great game to learn skills to navigate the world of misinformation. Having played for a little I already feel better prepared to assess arguements and statements on their logical and factual merit. The game contains clear, well structured explanations using contemporary examples and is easy to follow and fun to play. It's like Jedi training for cranky uncles... depending on which side of the force you want to be on.

Not bad, though I have a few gripes. First and foremost, the multiple choice options are cringey. It'll give you two stark opposites as possible answers which kind of insults your intelligence. This game could do well with an update to the dialog. Quiz timers suck because the questions take long to read. Otherwise, the log in feature never worked for me. I only ever tried logging in with Google, but every subsequent attempt after only opens a localhost link that doesn't load or redirect proprly.

Unable to read text when using Android in Dark Mode. It would be great if the pictures didn't use transparency as black lines are missing and white text in white cartoon bubbles is impossible to read. App does work when Dark mode is turned off but I didn't enjoy the continuous quiz question format, especially after completing their questionnaire before I'd used the app for the first time. Dislike the requirement of email for a game and is off putting to the target audience.

Interesting idea. Some of the quizzes might be difficult for individuals with limited language skills to succeed at (e.g., Median q assumes you can define it.). Conspiracy theory quizzes were confusing because I wasn't sure if true maps to "is a conspiracy theory" or "the statement is true"; those choices could remind what they represent. Research quiz seemed skewed towards negative cases, though I may have gotten some wrong... not sure. Cranky uncle face could update w/mood.

The idea is interesting. But the app is buggy and just doesn't seem finished. For example, selecting an answer shifts to the next screen while your finger is still on the screen, resulting in selecting a random answer for the next question. Also, some quiz pages lack any content other than hitting "Next" and earning points for .. something I guess? Just doesn't seem ready.
