I love this game, it is very entertaining and I have played it for hours. However, there are some major flaws with the game. The system guesses way too soon. Whenever you are going for a character you know is really rare, Akinator always guesses when you haven't given the system nearly enough input yet. Meaning it will always get it wrong. And when you finally get your character after many failed guesses, you aren't given the reward because of the systems failed guesses.
I like this app overall. It's entertaining and a fun activity. It's actually quite impressive how it figures out characters/ people with such little detail; however, ever since I redownloaded the app I've been having to watch so many ads which is an ad after every game additionally, they're very glitchy. I would suggest if the ads were more spread out such as once after every 4-5 games.
Bought the game it was so much fun. It guesses correctly about 95% of the time on the first try and I have only stumped indefinitely 3 or 4 times overall. You can add characters to their database if they aren't there, so I am certain this game will only get more accurate over time. I took off 1 star because this game does not have split screen functionality on Android, but if they were to add this I would definitely rate this 5 stars.
I love the game and have been playing it for years. However, i only gave it 3 stars. One reason is because of the rare characters. Once I watch an ad, sometimes it makes me watch two just for the one character. Another reason is not having more characters. I thought of a bunch of characters that could get me good awards and they weren't even entered into the game yet. I understand these take time to do, so do your best overtime to fix these please.
Just re-downloaded Akinator and I can say that things have changed for worse. The entire app seems to just be nagging it's users to watch advertisements. The app used to be fun with a few occasional ads here and then, but now it no longer has that spark. The app is covered in ads. I really dislike the fact that just to be able to see the characters, you have to watch an ad, especially for "rare characters." And sometimes you have to watch an ad 2-3 times before it finally shows the character.
Got a new phone and my purchase for no ads didn't restore. I constantly get an error message when selecting the option to restore purchases. I have contacted them 6 times, and they're ignoring my request. I can't even deal with an ad until they bother to give me what I paid for, because the "watch video" option doesn't work.
The ads are incessant and get even worse the more you play. Eventually it has you watch videos to see the results, which wouldn't be completely horrible except it eventually grays out the play video option and forces you to choose between buying the premium version or not getting any results. This app ruins the experience of browser based games by being the embodiment of everything wrong with the mobile game industry. I've never been more disappointed with a mobile app. I would rate 0 stars.
Yeah sure it's fun and all but you're actively punished for finding a rare character by being forced to watch a 30 second unskippable ad just to find out if the guess was correct. At least it worked properly (unlike the web version...)
Bit of an ad-fest, but no worse than many in that respect . Gets a bit "same-y" quite quickly and keeps repeating the same answer after a while rather than admit defeat, but entertaining so far as it goes. Wish search engines ran along similar lines....
I like the concept on this, but the "game" logic is ridiculous. If I have a character the game can't guess in one go, I DON'T get an award? So the point of this app is to allow Aki to win? Sorry - if my fictional/non-fictional character is sufficiently obscure such that Aki can't guess it, then I should be rewarded. Also, while I have no problem with ads, the ad feed breaks on a chromebook. Ads frequently do not have a 'close' button, even once they have finished playing, req. restart.
This game is super fun, aspecially the competition if you get bored. But sometimes the sound randomly stops playing. Sometimes it will not let me watch a video or get a rare item, and sometimes I have to watch two videos. There are also way too many ads.
I have played and loved using this in the past. However, this time it ses that every character I try and do is "rare", but the options to watch an ad or to buy the upgrade potion won't actually let me click them and it forces me to just say "no thanks" and quit. I would watch an ad if it would let me lol
This is a really cool game. It can guess basicly anything your thinking of! My only complaint is that if you're thinking of a "rare" character, it only lets you see it's guess ONCE. All the next times you're thinking of a rare character, it makes you buy the membership to see its guess.
As fun as this game can be, it has some incredibly huge flaws. I have to continuously rewatch ads or watch 2 or 3 ads if I have a rare character. On top of that, if you have a rare character that it can't guess or doesn't guess the first, you get penalized for it?! That's garbage. Why wouldn't that count as a higher medal and just because the akinator is too quick to assume and guess wrong, you don't get your points or medal even for like two additional questions? Stupid.
Good game so far, the questions do seem to be random, answering questions that aren't relevant are hard to say the least without searching the internet for information. Not as many ads at the beginning as I thought. Though some questions are similar to one another. Sometimes when saying "no" to a question doesn't seem to matter for he will skip that part and may give you something that does have what that question says. (Don't know of that's just me though.)
this is so frustrating, after so many tries still it fails to guess the rare character on one go. it shows repeatedly the same character which is very much annoying.Occasionally akinator failed to award me for rare character though I did win still it didn't care to award me with black diamomd even though I was deserving, disgusting.
I'm having an issue and I don't know if Akinator is intentionally making it harder to get rewards, but I've noticed lately that on most of my answers, the Akinator on the first guess ask the wrong kind of questions, not really relating to my answer that I'm thinking of. It's only until he's guessed it wrong the first time that he'll continue on and ask the more relevant questions and when he guesses it right, I don't get my medals because he didn't ask the right questions the first time :/
Way too many ads. Sometimes, you watch the ad and then the game thinks you didn't watch the ad, so you have to watch it again, but then it doesn't even give you your answer. Fun to kill time, but the game is a joke with all the ads.
Its fun to kill time racking your brain for uncommon people or characters. Its severely annoying when its almost impossible to get them on your first try, because it either jumps to a conclusion or repeats the same question over and over. 30 questions isn't enough. On top of that, when you're certain it got the right character, some of the adds aren't hooked up properly and don't let you see your result no matter how many ads you watch. Fix the ads, and get rid of the repeating questions.
Used to be a fun, quirky webgame that i loved to play, but now its just a cash grab that keeps asking you the same questions to pad for time to make you watch videos because the character is "too difficult" for him to guess, ie: is your character a boy? (Yes) and then repeatedly asking if the character is female later in the game. Not the same akinator I loved to try to stump.
An ad for every guess it seems. And I don't get why you get more awards when he guesses the character quickly... It's basically 20 questions, I thought the idea was to stump him? That's how it works on the website version anyway. It's a fun concept for sure and I enjoy playing the game on the website, but the app is not great.
So because you have a flawed program that repetitively asks the same question and tries to guess early I don't get an award? And it says I need to do better??? At what? Giving it an easier movie cuz it's too flawed? No that's ridiculous. You need to fix this. There's no point in having this app to just guess obvious answers like avengers or something. We want to challenge it and we feel like we win when the app doesn't guess right but then it it gets rid of that victory by asking you to be basic
Fun game (prefer the Alexa one) but when you get a 'rare' character you get the option to watch a video of give money, however it's not really a choice as clicking the 'watch a video ' button doesn't actually do anything. Then if you say no thanks it just starts the questions over.
Love this app, however it's not a app that doesn't need internet and it's has a lot of ads. For rare characters I will have to watch 2-3 apps for one. I hate when you get points taking off if he doesn't get it right.
A bit of fun, good on well-known characters. Tends to repeat questions on more obscure characters. Really needs to add a "same as 30 seconds ago when you asked this before" buttom.
I played this on my brothers phone, it's guessing ability is really amazing. However with my phone (Honor 9 lite), it isn't working. It begins to load then leaves the app, saying "PROBLEME_TECHNIQUE_REESSAYER_PLUS_TARD". Any suggestions?
Bombarded with ads just about every time you touch the screen, makes you sit thru an ad or pay every time you get a "rare" guess (this seems to mean anything you don't learn about in children's books). Every time I sit thru the ad for something or someone "rare" it refuses to show me the result until I watch an ad for a second time, often times the same as twice in a row. This app is just glorified ad space.
Im so sick of finding a 'rare character' then when I click watch an ad, and the video finishes I am unable to exit. I don't know if this is some type of bug but it has caused me to grow extremely frustated. (Chromebook.)
Time wasting game, 1)Lots of adds, we should watch ads when we get rare characters, that is OK, but even after every play. 2)See video Option shows only for 3-4 plays, but then if we click it doesn't work, we need to restart the game. 3)If we choose some one randomly, then they directly reduces our points to 0 in hall of fame, doesn't even reduce just points.... This game is just for wasting our time. I'm giving 2 stars because this game finds the accurate character of what we think. Thnx
