Family Feud® Live‪!‬ 12+

My main problem with this app is that there’s no accounting for a variety of phrasing… sometimes. There are times where I input “cursing” and it shows that “swearing” was the answer, but other times it thinks curses and swears are two different things. In the fast money round I put “pee” and the other person put “bathroom” and it didn’t account for the fact those are the same thing. Sometimes the answers it does accept are completely wild, like it accepting my answer of “Yoga mat” for “carpet,” when I felt like I really shouldn’t have been credited for that. It feels like the people who set this up did not account for a consistent variety of ways to say the same thing. It makes me want to be non-specific, but sometimes the answers are very specific.

The fact there’s a ticketing system in place is strange too but I think I would prefer that over being shown a bajillion ads. I’d be willing to pay for the app if more work was put into making it more understanding of what you’re trying to say.

I do think it’s a shame there’s no local mode to play with friends. I think it would be a lot of fun to have localized family feud tournaments. Oh well.

The main problem I have with this game is that there’s just too much. I hate the system with the tickets. Honestly, I think the tickets should just be taken out of the game, and you don’t ever have to wait. Also, why is the normal game and the fast money round two different categories. Why isn’t it like the normal show where you play the normal game and if you win, you play the fast money round. I realize if you only have one person with you, you can’t have two rounds for the fast money, but just make it so that if you get over 100 points in one round you win. Also, I don’t like how the app is set up as a one person game. I think there should be a different game mode where the timer resets after each answer so you can pass the phone to multiple people. This way it is more like the real game. My final complaint is that, as far as I can see, there is no way of playing someone you know. I haven’t logged in with Facebook, and that might fix the problem, but as far as I see there is no way to play against your friends.

Please fix these problems because if you do, I will like the game a lot better, and change my review to have more stars.

Let’s set things straight here: the game isn’t terrible. What ticks me off is that you can only play UP TO 5 games before you run out of tickets. Unless you pony up for VIP (which is a joke IMO), you MUST wait two hours for a single ticket to replenish. Not only does that increase your waiting time by 2x to start playing again after your previous relatively short session (if you just want to get a couple rounds in), it means fewer players will be actively playing at any one time, leading to matchmaking taking longer than usual. The ticket system is a joke at this point, in an attempt to get more people to pay $5/month just to get an additional ticket per two hours, with a max ticket cap of 10. I will uninstall (and encourage others to do so) because of how annoying it is to want to play another round, only to find out I ran out of tickets and either have to pay $5 a month to get one more ticket per replenish and a max of 10 at any time, or pay $5 every time you want to get your five tickets back. An absolute money grab and a subtle way to get users to cough up $5 each month or $5 every time they don’t want to wait 10 hours to get a full five tickets. Clever game development, but it won’t work on me.
