FanDuel Faceoff 17+

Fun but puzzling

King’s Cross is a novel puzzle game, which I have enjoyed as a chess player. Double move bonus is not worth making any extra moves, but keeping 2 squares open near the king will generally help you be more efficient.

Paid contest model makes no sense unless you are the very best player at a game (and maybe not even then). I had my first tie in Wheel today, and it turns out the winnings are split in this case, making both players net losers (I’d rather get a refund, like a push in betting).

I hope there might be innovation so that it actually makes sense to keep playing paid contests. Also, it would be nice to see, for a specific puzzle, say, the few top scores from players, rather than just the top/average of oneself and the opponent over all puzzles, as they vary by difficulty, etc.

Fun but Frustrating

I absolutely love being able to wager a little over a fun mini phone game. My issues with this rely heavily on the matchmaking. There are far too many times where it feels like no matter how well I do, I’m going to lose to a pre determined matchup. I play the same 4 people day in day out as my average is amongst the higher tiers. Namely, “tyschmidt” who I pray is not the real Ty Schmidt cuz why would he want my 60 cents?

Anyways, the performance of the app will randomly go down the drain as well in the middle of a paid game. If I’m lining up a shot and activate a power up like 2x, the game will drop frame rates TERRIBLY and make the game impossible to play as it’s entirely timing based. So this needs a performance fix desperately and a rework to the SBMM (skill based matchmaking).

Absolute scam

I signed up under a new user promo that offered a 100% deposit bonus within 72 hours. It has been over a week, I never received a bonus. The promo promised that I could withdraw my deposit at any time with no penalty, but when I tried to do so, it said deposited money must be played before it can be withdrawn. I had to request a refund. Customer service promised that if I did, I would still receive the bonus. I’ve spent hours talking to customer service, both to get a refund on my deposit, and to check on the bonus, which they have promised me each day for the last week, assuring me I am still 100% eligible per the terms and that it “should arrive later today.” The last person I spoke to said they will be reaching out via email.

Avoid this app like the plague. They are trying to steal your money. They also willfully break the terms of their own agreements.
