Total Trivia is a good game, I enjoy it. It allows people to win free stuff. It also is a great skill builder game. It allows people to sharping there knowledge.
Not only are items WAY overvalued the clock doesn't stop on the tournament if there's a last second change in the leader. That's right! So it's s game of chicken of who wants to max out their credit card on coupons to win an item for "free"
I think they are on track with the concept, but there needs to be more explanation on how things work. I also think there should be restrictions so there is a level playing field. Obviously the one who spends the most on extra tickets has the advantage. Although fantastic for the company, the guy with not a ton to spend will lose. Just remember, nothing is for free, and pay attention to what you're spending and how you're spending your tickets. You may be better off waiting for a later auction, then putting all your eggs in one basket. You may actually be paying more than the item is worth in the long run. With all that said, it is fun, but easily caught up in. It's essentially legal gambling for products.
This game has both its highs and lows. It is fun to play and can challenge you to think at times. However, there are players who seem to dominate all of the ones that are ending soonest. I also wish the added time when someone took the lead would go away, it would up the competitive edge.
Hi Candice, thank you so much for your review. Due to the change to the Discount Coupon Guarantee, there have been some very successful players. We know that it was quite difficult playing against such players. However, we have taken steps to ensure that players who win are fully rewarded and that all players have a fair chance of winning. For example, we are listing more tournaments per day than ever before. We hope that you will try again and change your mind. If you would like to talk further about this, feel free to email support@totaltrivia.com
Too much competition for smaller items expect to spend at least 50$ to win. Take advantage of the videos for free plays.
I think you should get more points before you have to buy tickets
This app is lots of fun for playing Trivia. I usually watch the free videos to get discount coupons. But to win a tournament you have to spend money for the coupons. It is very easy to get caught up in the bidding part. They have some great stuff to win. But be prepared to spend money to actually win a prize.
This is fun, and I was skeptical at first when my daughter told me about it. However, I won 2 items after playing for a bit and getting tickets through the daily challenges (thank you for the 200 ones!). However, I almost feel like part of it is fixed, especially for the higher items. There are people with different usernames, and cities listed, but the same picture, who are winning 1st place on several items at once using lots of boosters and fast passes. It seems unfair. They literally have it run up to almost 25k on points... something seems a little fishy to me. I was doing good about spending a little here and there. But I spent 25$ (may not seem like a lot, but I'm a single mom teacher...) to help win (I already had 1000 tickets) a 5000 ticket card. This was when the person with multiple accounts and apparently a bank account the size of donald trumps came in last minute every time. Good luck getting the big stuff... these are the ones the "fake people" are winning.
Hi Chrissy, thank you for sharing your thoughts about Total Trivia. If you suspect that a shopper is controlling more than one account (which is against the terms of use), please don't hesitate to let us know at support@totaltrivia.com
Total Trivia is a game where you answer questions from a variety of topics in order to gain first place to win prizes for 'free'. The prizes are top quality, usually packaged well and shipped within a reasonable amount of time.
It's only free if you maintain the patience to play daily challenges to win the discount tickets you need to play. You can also use in app purchases to buy tickets and may very well have to if you want to maintain that first place position to win that $14,000 Schultz Massage chair for free.
You do earn discounts off of the retail price every time you play, even if not in first place but it's too easy to keep charging your card for more tickets.
Beware if you're intensely competitive with a long line of credit.
Hard to win after the first times. But the prizes are real and do get set over in a timely manner. There are a few players that seem to have unlimited tickets and always win so is you want a big ticket item forget about it
Hi Shan, thanks for your review. You can always exchange wins for more discount coupons which helps to compete in the later rounds of big ticket items. Let us know if you need anything at support@totaltrivia.com
If you really want an item, you better have a lot of discount tickets, because it's going to cost you. The customer service could be better.
Hi Daisy, I'd love to have a chat with you about how we an improve our customer service. Can you email support@totaltrivia.com at your earliest convenience? Thanks!
Love the trivia aspect of this just wish there was more diversity in the prizes. I've won a couple of times which is great but would play more if the prizes were better
Hi Diane, thank you for the feedback. We're looking to add a wider range of items this year so hopefully there will be some more prizes that you like :)
Fun. But could be pricey if not concious. Lots of people running up the score WAY higher than reasonable. Lots of TROLLS who literally play for everything listed
Hi, Thanks for the review. We are happy to see you did enjoy your time playing Total Trivia. At times there some customers who seem to be able to compete in a lot of tournaments at once, which causes a lot of competition. We have created special daily tournaments for customers who cannot compete on the same level. We are also looking at other ways to diversify tournaments, so all players have a fair chance of winning.
There are a lot of pros to this game. It is somewhat fun, but the game is more "penny auction" driven now instead of "trivia game" driven. I played almost religiously when the game first rolled out, but now I don't play very much at all because of the vultures who will swoop in during the last minute of play and fast track their way to the lead without having to answer very much trivia at all. Incredibly unfair if you're having a game that allegedly rewards knowledge, plus it's frustrating as hell in the heat of competition. I don't play games to get frustrated and throw money down the drain. I play games to have fun. This is fun to play when you just want to answer questions and aren't expecting to win prizes. If you're expecting to win, don't bother. No longer worth it.
Hello Tim, thank you very much for your feedback. I am sorry to hear that the tournaments are no longer as fun as you first found them. I'd love to speak to you over the phone about this - could you send your number and a good time to call in an email to support@totaltrivia.com?
This was such a fun game and then all of a sudden they changed their whole way of winning probably because people were winning too much the product is so good the game is fun but now it's much harder to win the point value went up I do realize they give you more credits for your money but it was just fine the way they were doing it before if it's not broke don't fix it it was just a customer service was awful now they found a way to totally block me out everytime I go on with a new account so I'm going to take further actions on this because as of now I can't play anymore and I'm very disappointed in that cuz I spent a lot of money with totaltrivia and DealDash and for them to just block my account every time I start a new one is disturbing
I absolutely love the game and I love the competition I think it's better than DealDash but the customer service sucks.
There's no instant message if you need to talk to somebody right away they don't respond to your email right away within 24 hours so if you need help at that instant you're not going to get it... also I'm trying to trade in what I won for tickets and I still haven't gotten a response on a item that I have won 6 hours ago.
They really need to get better service for them representing items off of dealdash.com
It's alright if you wanna keep spending money in overtime to try and beat the guy who doesn't wanna give up. Otherwise, you lose all your money if you don't win the tournament.
At least once a day the site will stop and I can't finish answering the questions or right when I'm bidding and I almost went the site freezes and you can't fit anymore you've lost your bids and you don't win this does not happen on other sites. When you're using this site make sure you go to a Starbucks or someplace where you can get strong internet and not depend on your phone company to provide enough internet2 take the high demand of this site. Other sites like DealDash don't have this problem
You need to spend a lot of money to win anything. When I won some stuff the products I won came in late, but they were nice products.The only part I dont like is having to spend money to win something.
I liked it better before they discounted ticket. Cant afford it now. I buy tickets but everytime. I get outbid
Ive loved playing this game but ive recently came across many times where the app would crash or act weird and my tickets ending up being wasted. But when i do have an issue the support team does help me. Besides all the issues and crashes this app is the best.
Thanks Moacir, keep letting us know if you encounter technical issues and our developers will fix them in our regular app updates.
It seems to me that your first day you receive double ticket exchange to get you into the game. Then it drops on a couple days and you barely get 150 tickets per item. It's hard to win anything for less than 100 tickets.
Hi David, thanks for reaching out. The exchange rates may be in flux at this time since we just launched the exchange feature and are trying to find the optimum rates for each item. We want the tournaments to be fair for all users, while providing fun and value so thank you for your patience with us as we tweak the rates.
I miss the way Total Trivia used to be. There use to be one tournament after the other, just minutes apart. It was exiting watching your points go up, and even more exiting when you won something. The speed of the tournaments were also what gave the game excitement. Now its just slow and boring. Now the only people winning anything are the veteran players. It wasnt even all about the winning. It use to be fun watching your points go up and juggling the tournaments that were coming to an end.
The game is not like it use to be. They just implemented more changes. Now theres only one daily tournament an hour. Its so competitive now that earning points is almost impossible. You can scrape a few here and there if your lucky but its nothing like it it use to be. Its gotten boring. Theres no exitment in watching your points stay about the same and waiting for a tournament to come to an end every 20 mintutes.
It was great while it lasted. Ive won some really great stuff but I havnt won anything since they made these changes.
I guess it was to good to be true.
This is a fun trivia site, but there are no rules to prevent players from getting greedy and monopolizing the game. This could easily be fixed if they just put a limit on the number of times a person can win the same prize in a week. Be prepared to invest real money because you just can't expect to get something for nothing. The quality of the prizes I have received, actually exceeded my expectations.
Hi Karen, thank you so much for your feedback. Winning limits are something we are considering carefully at this time. Really glad to hear the items exceeded your expectations!
Ok app. Fun to play but can be frustrating when outbid with less than a second remaining. Merchandise is ok but not too great of quality and not worth the MSRP but typically can win it for less.
Total trivia is a great game if you are patient or if you want to pay a lot of money. It's very irritating when you spend all your credits and get nothing out of it. I think if you don't win the tournament then you should get your credits back
Hi Michelle, thanks for sharing your idea. Since it isn't economically feasible for us to return discount coupons for everyone who doesn't win, we do offer the option to purchase the item at a discount and get your discount coupons returned. That means if you play for items you already want, the best case is that you win it for free, and the worst case is that you pay less than retail price and get the discount coupons returned :)
