I'm currently about 1/4 of the way through the game and really enjoying it. Learning, testing knowledge I didn't realise I knew! The ads are tolerable & short which I love. One thing that irks me though, is when you give an incorrect answer, the word "owww" appears with an emoji - I think you might mean it to be "ohhh" or "awww", it's my understand that owww is an onomatopoeiac response to injury?

It's a good app, I like the fun facts and the different problems. But, suggest that you take away the timed portion, specifically for the spelling out section. This is a learning app. I'd rather not get mad that I can't remember a scientist's first name in 20 seconds.

The quiz itself is amazing, i loved it, until i ran out of lives. I suggest you either remove the whole "life" concept or make it easier for players to get lives. It really put me off. There's no reason for me to keep the app if i can't use it.

App is fun, except the fact that there are limited lives. So can't play for a long time. But since it has variety of questions , it's fun to play and update knowledge. I'm few questions away from the certificate and now IT'S NOT WORKING because it is unable to extract resources. So the concerned team , kindly work on it. Thank you.

Garbage; grammatical/spelling errors in almost every question, ridiculously inconsistent difficulty of questions, poor user interface, obtrusive ads (par for the course on free games obviously), dubious "lives" system to make more money off of people. Stay far away.

A lot of the questions are good. But the transitions and ads between the questions really slow down the game play. I get that it's a "free" app, so you "pay" for it by watching ads. But this one is ad HEAVY.

Absolutely terrible ads. The first half an hour where you have lives is fun but after that it becomes impossible to play without watching ads every minute to get lives. This is on top of the already constant barrage of ads when loading up the app and between questions. Don't download this.

Overall a very informative and fun app. However, the lives feature is kinda problematic. If you run out of lives it can be an hour before you can play again (unless you pay to play of course). Also, a few questions have inaccuracies. One asked about "Which Ukrainian city had a nuclear disaster in 1986?" The Chernobyl exclusion zone has multiple cities within it, but the city closest to the plant is Pryp'yat. However the answer the game wants is 'Chernobyl' which is not untrue but inaccurate.

The app is great! I understand why there is a life system. I think its for you to not get addicted too much to the game and as well as for ads. I seriously would get addicted to this but bcause of the life system it helped me manage my time although it makes you crazy sometimes trying to wait for the time to finish to get more lives. Anyways i loved the added facts!

I love to increase my knowledge of history and guess what. This World history quiz has made a significant addition to my range of history. Omg I'm so happy to have it. It's an amazing quiz app. I get to see what's that I'm missing on and then I try to learn that too. It's a fun and knowledgeable app. My suggestion is to please remove the repetitions of quiz questions. They're not of value.

Ads! Hungry developers keep on putting ads every 20 secs. At least 4 ads in a minute. After every correct answer there is an ad. When the chances get over, you need to watch an ad to get just 1 chance!!!! It's so frustrating. The only reason I gave it 2 stars is that the questions are good and decent.

I don't find the ads that bad, but the game is terrible. The questions are either truly universally nown facts, too specific obscure things and nothing in between. Some are actually news events from less than 20 years when the app launched, which means it can't even be considered history. And not using a keyboard in the written questions is terrible. At least add a delete button, if you made a typo you loss a live basically. Basically, a great idea poorly executed.

This game content as far as it goes is fine , questions are reasonably difficult however it is plagued with adverts . Like for real all they have here is an app that throws up words with a question mark behind it and then you choose out of 4 options. Is there really any need for a barrage of adverts? Also it's fine until you run out of lives then but then it doesn't regenerate very well either. I expect to just click on it and have more lives when I've not played for a while instead of having to manually spin the regenerator wheel or whatever .

The first 20 minutes are great! But once you're out of lives, that's it. I thought lives would regenerate over time but no, you're dependent on some wheel of fortune that you can use once an hour. To usually get ONE life. So you can get 1 question wrong and wait again. Now, i was planning on playing this while on transit to work every morning but it's useless. Once a day i can do up to one mistake, unless i pay. And that is on top of lots of ads. It's nonsense, this is pure anti consumer!!

The UI is excellent, the questions are equally great and I love the whole game. Only problem is there are too few questions and I wish you guys put more questions and make it into various levels. Like after passing easy level, you go to medium level and then hard and then Ultimately pro Historian level. I would love that. I also use your geography quiz app and I have the same grievance for that too. Please look into this dear developers.

It's a fun quiz app, but sometimes the right answer is given in the picture, and there are some smaller details (like using 'Soviets' and 'Russians' interchangeably, for example), which grind my OCD. Also, the additional info that is displayed on right answers (and sometimes wrong ones) isn't always related to the question at all. What the app could really benefit from is some kind of 'endless' mode, because the ~180 questions just aren't enough.

The app has a lot of polish. The only drawbacks is that the app has a ton of advertising to the point that it is very excessive. Additionally it is very slow to transition from question to question. Faster transitions would make it more enjoyable. It sounds petty but it's really slow. 3.5 stars. Less advertising and faster transitions would bring it up to five stars. I would LOVE to see a multiplayer version of this with less ads.

Really like the app. I'm a history major (with a Master's Degree), but I got stumped a few times. Laughed when my wife answered 3-4 questions that I missed. Really like the varied level of content. Some easy things, but some tough ones as well. Should appeal to anyone interested in history, no matter what background. Please keep making quizzes. It's fun and challenging. And it teaches. Well done. I need to study more to not get stumped again. Masters Degree hahaha!.

A decent app for those looking to test their knowledge, but not one I recommend. The ad that played before even reaching the main menu was the first sign, because they certainly didn't stop. Every drop of satisfaction I get from answering correctly is immediately swept away by an unending flood of ads, sometimes as often as one every three questions. And, of course, if you run out of lives, that's another few to spin the wheel. Finished the game in the end, but currently wouldn't play again.

Some of the questions are quite interesting, but they're a bit inconsistent -- some are historically important, and others are trivial. Likewise the "Fun Facts" given after a question vary widely in quality, from genuinely educational to downright irrelevant. The scoring system is also arbitrary, from getting 3 guesses for 4 options, on one hand, to having to spell an answer under a tight time limit -- it doesn't give you a sense of accomplishing much.
