Beautiful and engaging game, very educational on the law and helps with practice. Sometimes a support is overlooked (or I'm just not using explain cards) but overall I love it. Wish there were more than 9 cases to discuss but you can always play each side of each case giving a beautiful 18 arguments to side with all with historical cases. Famous ones at that, most notably Brown v. Board of education and other controversial cases. I would love to see an online mode π
The concept is really good. Choosing a side in the beginning, choosing an appropriate argument, drawing cards for supporting your argument, matching phrases to explain the point better, being able to choose whether you object or pass, and also experiencing different cases covering different laws. Easy to understand game. You can play offline with no ads. Completely free. Educational. Good while it lasts, but I'd definitely like to play games like this longer.
the game is a good concept, but that's all it feels like, a proof of concept. there are only a few cases and they aren't very complicated issues. the AI is also laughably easy and there is no way to turn up the difficulty or play online against other players to make it harder. it's fun while it lasts (about 30 min), but it needs ALOT more content to feel like an actual fleshed out game or pose a real challange to any player.
One of my favorite iCivics games! Educational, thrilling, compelling, and a lot of fun! This almost makes me want to be a lawyer! However, I really miss the old artwork, music, and interface. It looked a lot better and it's 4 stars just for that because it took so much away from my playing experience, as a longtime player. Other than that a lot of fun and investment in a really interesting game!
The game requires players to have critical thinking and a clear logical reasoning. It's very beneficial to building one's argumentation skills. The game also allows you to pick a side of the case you chose plus allows you to pick how intelligent you want your opponent AI to be, which adjusts the degree of difficulty of the gameplay. The only thing is, there are only a few cases, and there are few usages of legal nuances and jargon. Good for learning general concepts, but nothing too detailed.
I love the concept but I feel the need to criticize the execution. Number one, the text is too small. I do not need corrective lenses and I have a large phone but it was still difficult to read without the phone uncomfortably close to my face. I love the arguments and applied logic, but the format of drawing argument "cards" at random was destructive to the educational experience. I held on to an objection card and ended up drawing insufficient or inapplicable arguments near the end of the case
It has a beautiful layout and is incredibly simple to use. It's very smooth as well, and it shows and explains the actual United States Supreme Court rulings in a very easy-to-understand way. For that I give five stars. However, there are few cases to choose from, and not all of them are landmark cases that govern our day-to-day lives. For that, I knock off one star. πΉπππππ: ββββ
This is like most iCivics games: it's educational, trustworthy, fun-- and disappointingly short :( Overall, though, an easy five stars. Good for all ages, really. (edit: I noticed some visual bugs on my device. basically, stuff's not formatting to my screen correctly. I'll probably 1) forget to email the devs about it and 2) probably forget to update this review if/when they do fix them, so for those 2 reasons, plus the fact that 3) the game is usually Goodβ’, I'll keep the score at 5 stars.)
I have played so many iCivics games before, but I have to say that this is the most excellent and compelling one. Every single mechanic, artistic graphic, and logical concept ties together to form this politically-educational game.
Probably my personal favorite of all your games. However, there could be some improvements including more diverse voice acting, more cases like for example: Dred Scott v. Sandford, Marbury v. Madison, ect. Or maybe a case for each amendment if problems arise for certain cases.
The game has been updated radically. And for once, I prefered the old semi-complicates gameplay, because now it has become kindergarten level, wheres as the previous version was more intense, and as such, required more logical thinking. Nevertheless, even if I wont play it, the game does a ok job at teaching kids about speechcraft.
The game first of all has a talk back feature and every button has to be pressed several times in quick succession to work otherwise a female voice just reads it back to me. When the introductory part is over and I get to the main menu the game is obviously glitched and I cannot do anything on the main menu
This game is really good for showing how anything can be argued well. This game would be even better with a "vs" mode, where you could play locally with a friend, passing the phone between turns. This would extend gameplay infinitly.
The game is really awesome. My experience so far was really good but the only thing which stops me from giving it 5 stars is that it has lack of cases. I request the team to upgrade it & put atleast some more cases around 30 - 50. Anyways keep up the good work.π
Hi! This game really deserves more stars than it has.. This game is fun and educational. If you could just add more cases,that would be wonderful... And for those who are saying that this game is racist because they lost in the segregation case, note that you need to have more points than your opponent to win. great graphics and gameplay.. Good job!
I want to like this game, and as a teacher, I really enjoy the educational aspect of it. However, the font size on my Galaxy S20 is just too small too read. I suffered through 1 case, but can't do it anymore. This problem is compounded by the inability to zoom into the card so you can read the text. It's possible to select it, but your finger gets in the way of reading it... Sad, but I had to uninstall.
Overall everything works as I expected but there's two things 1 there's only nine cases you can do and there's no way to make anymore so you're repeatedly playing the same case no matter if you go on normal difficulty or high difficulty it's just the same missions 2 The buttons are small as hell to click
Absolute beauty. This game is simple yet very much interactive and engaging. Good content.. Want more cases to be added so that we can explore more. Hats off to the entire team. It's a perfect win win..
First prompt asked me I wanted to make an account. Pressed No Thanks about 10 times with no response. Pressed around the screen randomly and moved to the next screen which was the menu screen. This was completely unresponsive so I can't even start the game
Good, educational game with no ads. The only problem is a serious one: everything on the screen is too small and hard on the eyes.
Good game, interesting historical content. One problem, there is a bug that disables the audio sometimes. Please fix and I will give five stars.
This game is great trust me...the only problem with it is...it very short and some of the cases don't have a voice over....you will find yourself repeating the same 9 cases over and over again just changing positions from defense to applicant
This game is the best. I love how everything is. The cards,the cases and everything you can do in it. I would rate it 6 out of 5.... I mean 8 out of 5 if I could. I recommend playing this game and making it your favourite game.
whenever i click the card to read it, i accidentally submitted it as my support. it's annoying because it's a waste of point if you got it wrong. overall, a decent app.
The game is good but the cases is always the same we want the cased to be random at each turn for more fun and addicting experience
honestly, i loved it the game does need an update, more court cases are needed and increase the difficulty.
I only give 4 stars but i really love this game maybe you should add more cases with a voice over. That's all that i want to say. Keep it up! I will wait till you make an update regarding to my request π
I personally love this game no problems for me at all, but I do recommend for the makers to add more cases so that we won't have to do small amount of cases. And the have 9 cases actually. :)
Informative in an interesting way. Wish there would be more cases and flexible choices or scenarios in the future. Won all 9 cases in half a day.
This game provides a very competitive, entertaining and learning experience because of it's unique introduction to the ai difficulty level, your lawyer, and last is your desired case. The only downside is that some cases either fall a bit short or are less detailed. It would really be a game changer if there were added cases which are more detailed that would engage the players' critical thinking and precise decision making more and if they had the option to modify the number of rounds per case.
