Great Game, needs some smoothing
Sun Jul 30 2023 Turbocool123I got this game for my birthday. As a huge gaming family, we’ve had a great time! It is super easy to learn and fast paced, so you can play several rounds quickly!
I love the game pieces, the figurine is super detailed and all the cards look great. The knife piece to symbolize turn is super cool, but a little cumbersome and often got ignored as the game went on.
My main critique comes within the app. The design is super cool, and there are no issues when playing the game, but the set up takes the longest time.
There is a button to play again, but it takes you back to the beginning where you must write in all the players again, as well as check off a number of settings to begin the next game. The ability to save settings, as well as previous players, would bring this game back up to the five stars it deserves!
Incredible game, and I’d definitely recommend it to anyone who enjoy games like Space Team, as it is of a similar vein! Also obviously to any scream fans!
Great game! App could use some work.
Sat Jul 22 2023 Jav_A_CadoOverall this was a great family game. The instruction video could use some work. The only way to learn how to play is to read the instructions. By the time you are done reading them you question if you still want to play as it feels overwhelming. I would recommend a “repeat game” option so you don’t have to keep re-entering everyone’s name. Also, maybe a mode between normal and hardcore. Great game idea. Some fine tuning is all that’s needed.
Does anyone know why it’s messing with my home screen?
Tue Nov 26 2024 SisjsjjananqbwnsnaHi! So, five star review because I genuinely enjoy this game! It’s super fun to play with friends, and a perfect addition to any Halloween party! However, I do have a question and/or concern.
Does anyone else have the problem of the game messing with the home screen of your phone? When I tilt my phone sideways and don’t open the lockscreen, eventually it will change the clock and the whole background red and black, and will use pictures from your camera roll to use as a background, though its all red and black, barely visible unless you squint.
I found this out by accident, when I was simply vibing and soon saw Ghost Face was starring backs at me, again barely visible on screen. We tried it with my friend who also has the apps, and the same thing happens. Does anyone else have this problem, and can anyone explain if this is normal?
Huge disappointment
Tue Dec 26 2023 L!MEgreenThis game COULD be fun except even on the easy mode it’s impossible to get in more than a few turns before Ghostface calls. This results in constantly having to answer and deal with his “demands”, which are impossible to meet because he calls back about 20 seconds later to see if you’ve completed them yet, then calls again 20 seconds later to make more… it’s too much that it goes beyond difficult and just becomes foolish and frustrating. I would like to see how other people who left positive reviews are even playing this game, maybe we are missing something because we just gave up after three or four attempts. Also others are right: it’s very annoying that with such a short gameplay the app makes you re-enter every players name each time you start a new game.
Game is great! App needs work
Fri Nov 24 2023 hrtitupsryThis game is really fun once you get into a groove, though you will need a group of people who is willing to pay attention to the game while it’s going. If you’ve got people who aren’t very invested, you’ll lose quickly.
My main reason for the 3-star rating is the app. While it generally works well, we’ve encountered some issues where Ghostface calls a player and threatens to call back asking for 3x of a specific card, but then it never happens. I’m guessing this is not an intentional game mechanic.
Also, as others have mentioned there is no way to save the player names/photos from one game to the next. It’s really frustrating when you’re playing with the same group, but instead of jumping into another game you have to go through the trouble of typing out everyone’s name before you start a new game.
Would love for the devs to show the app some more love - if so I’ll happily update my rating. For now, I’d say purchase the game with caution knowing that it’s not in an optimal state.
Lovely game
Mon Jul 22 2024 🫦©I was at a bookstore and randomly saw this, as a scream fan I was all for it! It is so quickly paced your able to get through around 4 rounds within 1 hour determining how long each round is, it’s so difficult on the normal mode though so we tweaked it to make it a little easier, we played 8 and won 2 so it is overall great and everyone loved it accept my competitive sister PS: she hates losing. Haha I definitely recommend it though!
Needs some work
Sun Jul 30 2023 MathjediFirst, there needs to be a way of playing again without having to enter all of the names all over. That is a big issue when you have a lot of players. Second, there is a point in the narration where Ghost Face demands to be shown three phones and he calls back before we can even all get a turn. This is a consistent issue every time we play. And it’s an instant lose situation. Makes the game unplayable. Great idea but please fix!
what’s your favorite scary movie?
Tue Feb 18 2025 hails1425I think this game is super fun, I will say I had four friends playing and at first even on normal it was a little tricky when ghost face calls specific people and you have to get them items, so we kept losing at first. Finally we figured it out and we started winning but it’s still a very fast paced game and you have to really work together. I like the app concept and it definitely keeps you on your toes!
Please add!!
Sun Mar 24 2024 Gigimm25Please add like a “favorites” tab where you can save the names of you party so we don’t have to input the names each time. It would be great that you could increase (or even let the players select) the time between calls. With 8 players it was super stressful to meet Ghostface’s demands if the one that’s called just completed their scene and cannot get more than 1 turn before he calls back.
Fun game, set up in app needs work
Sun Sep 10 2023 djwiddledThe game itself is really fun, the only downside is the actual app. There should be an option to repeat the game with the settings from the last session repeated. It’s tiresome to have to type in each person’s name and put in a photo again and again, especially when multiple rounds are played in a row. If that were fixed, it would be a 5 star game.
