My coworkers and I would play this every day at lunch before the pandemic, and it was a great way to get to know everyone! Often one of the best parts of my day. With us still virtual, I was really excited to see this as an app. They totally pulled it off. It’s fun as a group, but also works with friends not there in person. One of my besties and I play almost every night and text between answer trying to beat out high score. I wish there was a message feature within the app so we wouldn’t have to switch back and forth, but I assume this was meant to be played in person or with voice. I also really appreciate that the development team is actively iterating to improve the experience. Keep it up!
I’ve never had this much fun on an app with my friends, this game gets brought up at every party and gathering I’ve been at since I downloaded it a few weeks ago. The well curated variety of topics means no one gets left out and you get to learn more about anyone from your BFF to a complete stranger. Rounds don’t feel like they drag and often inspire light hearted debates which can be as mature (or immature) as you want haha. An incredibly versatile game, I’ve shared this with almost everyone I know and it’s been a hit. Things I Love: - gorgeous, cohesive, and clean design - love that games don’t pause when anyone switches between apps - can play in the same room or virtually - minimal lag!!!! Things I’d Like to See: - star “difficulty” rating, certain ranges like “Original->Derivative” may be more for adults rather than younger folk - clearer pack titles, love “Lickable” but the ranges had me a little confused - different sounds for each available reaction - stats on who gives the best clues, who gives the worst
This game is super fun and easy to play with your friends! I’m not gonna come out and say they can’t do anything better but it is definitely one of the more fun games I own only a few thing they would add/get rid of the first being to get rid of all of the game modes needing to be purchased it’s not even like you can create your own game modes either another thing you could add is live online games this would make the game more fun and enjoyable even if you aren’t able to play with friends. You also should take into consideration that if you buy some of the packs you still are spending a lot of money overall I like the game and it’s good but there are definitely things that the developers could add
One of the bast games i’ve ever played. It’s a great time waster if you and your friends are bored, and is a completely different style of online game than many others. It forces you to be with your friends in the moment instead of just joining with random people. I started out just playing it with my family, but I was stuck with nothing to do before a choir concert, so I got a friend to download the game. Now, I have a group of about five or six friends who play this game together all the time, usually playing multiple rounds. This game never gets old, even without the extra spectrum packs.
I love this game because it allows you to kill time while still interacting with friends and family. For the developers, I think it’d be fun to have an alternate mode where instead of having one guess that everyone agrees to, we each make our own guess and the game averages them out. Sometimes I see people disengage because one person takes charge and is always the one moving the needle. Having an average let’s everyone always have a vote, while still forcing us to convince others to our side.
Played this with my family over Zoom and we had a blast, then my wife and I started playing it just the two of us and played hours without getting bored. This is great idea for a game, the app is well designed, and I really appreciate that there are no ads (I wouldn’t have downloaded it if there were). You can try for free, so I’d recommend that anyone give it a chance. The only thing you buy is more scales to play the game with.
I’ve been a long-time fan of the board game version. The app brings all of the joy of the original game and makes it even easier to play than passing around the wheel. New spectrums lead to new and exciting conversations. Nothing feels quite as good as giving a clue and having your teammates figure out exactly where it lands on the spectrum. You will get a sufficient taste of the game before needing to buy extra packs, so try it out!
The only reason this isn't 5 stars is that there is literally no reason that this doesn't have pass and play outside of possibly the developers wanting to force app downloads. It would be as simple as: pass the phone to the clue giver, tap when ready to see scale placement, tap to hide, tap to place guess/submit, reveal. It would be the perfect waiting game at restaurants, theme park lines, etc. but requiring that everyone has their own device (aka my young kids) is excessive.
It seems foolish to lock the rounds to the player count with zero ability to change it up. I exclusively play this game with my partner and we would have a lot more fun if we could go as many rounds as we wanted without starting over, and also the score rankings at the end should be tied to player counts. The three times I’ve played with more than just the two of us we have gotten far higher on the scale than we ever do alone, to the point it seems impossible to get up to “wow” with just the two of us.
This game is really fun to play with groups. It is a whole lot of fun seeing all of your teammates struggle on deciding on a spot, especially when it’s on the other side! I would go far enough to say this is one of the most entertaining party games yet, tied with others like Out Of The Loop. I don’t have any nitpicks, but a new mode would be a cool addition for the future!
It’s a great game to play with people, it’s simple and easy as well as engaging and interesting. I love the fact that I haven’t seen a single ad on here after a week of playing. The only reason I took off a star is because the other player(s) can’t hear the sound effects of the emotes you use after a round. I can hear them but my friend can’t, and vice versa. With this in mind and updated this game is definitely 5 stars!!
Me and my family have found this to be much more fun with just two players. I think it would be much better if with multiple players everyone got their own guess and scored their own points. To motivate the players to give good clues they could get points for correct guesses on their clues maybe an average of all the guesses or the highest scoring guess. My family would certainly have more fun this way I think it would be a great addition as a secondary way of playing.
So I was playing Wavelength with some of my friends and my family and I put a really good question that I thought no one would guess and it skipped my question and I was super excited for them to try and get it and it just skipped my question and so obviously I got really mad because I wanted them to see that question or stars I might not play it again because I am really mad about that
I love the physical game but it can be slow waiting for someone to think of clues. So I really love how much more quickly you can move through game play. We’ve played it with a variety of ages(8-80) and paired up on devices. Fun to have something the whole family can enjoy.
So I don’t think it’s terrible but soon after getting the app I had to delete it for a few reasons, things the game needs to work on. There should be an online mode where you join a game with random people so that you don’t always have to be with friends to play. And also there should be AT LEAST 2 packs to start with before you have to buy any. And while I’m talking about buying packs, it’s a bit too much. Plz fix this and then I will recommend it to other ppl and my friends.
This was a very good game me and my fiancé enjoyed it very much it was a little hard for me to understand it in the beginning probably because I was too high ha ha ha but overall a good game and I recommend it for all the family especially if you’re going to smoke weed you can make it funny by putting in funny clues it’s a pretty cool game did I mention smoking weed
My family and I were remote from each other for thanksgiving this year. This game left us laughing so hard our faces hurt and helped us spend quality time together. Thank you wavelength team
We love this game but wish there were a single person mode. My sister and I play while on plane and car rides and it doesn’t make sense for us to have to use 2 devices. Would love to be able to just pass the phone back and forth since we are sitting right next to each other. And she refuses to download apps.
Really fun boardgame. I miiiight like the app better than the physical game because it engages everyone all the time but the physical game is a big toy that is fun to have at parties. Glad to see it’s finally out of Beta! Tons of stuff to do for free in this version and lots of extra packs to add variety.
My company started playing this game during our virtual happy hours. I loved it so much I turned my whole family onto it and now my wife and I play instead of Netflixing. 10/10 would recommend.
This is the first review I’ve ever written for an app but I found the game to be so fun and really great for a group of colleagues, which suggests it’d be even better with a group of friends. Will definitely be recommending to friends going forward.
I love this game, but I think you could easily make it pass and play with one device. That way you could play anytime, anywhere without need for an internet connection.
This game is perfect for parties, one on ones, etc. might as well download it and then once u get obsessed like me, purchase the additional packs. You don’t need to purchase anything for it to be worth a download
A lot of these “party games” are boring and just cash grabs to get you to buy party packs. This app is actually really fun and well made. UI is fun and inviting. Very simple but well done. Game is really funny to play with friends
I really need pass and play mode. I’m often in groups and introducing wavelength to people for the first time. It’s a lot to ask everyone in a group to download a new app. Especially if you don’t know people sure well. I need the spinner interface and card selection. Everything else can be handled without the app.
AMAZING. A true work of art. Quick question though, for the expansion packs, does everyone playing have to have the expansion, or just one person for it to work?
Very fun game and wish I could play it a lot but you can only play it when your with people which is the down side and when you’re hanging out with friends you are not on your phone that much. 4/5
I love the physical version of this game and they’ve done a beautiful job of porting it over to the app. Such a great party game!! Super simple, but engages everybody and makes for great moments/laughs. Also works easily over zoom.
Game is fun, pro,pt for subscription is often and never ending
The game itself once started is decent. Unfortunately, the “get updated! 👀 we’ll send infrequent notifications when we have new contnent!” Ppompt happens *often*. One game I had to dismiss it seven times before I could start playing.
Tons of fun for groups of people. The design of this game’s interface is so pleasing I can hardly stand it. We bought the full pack and they are full of so many great prompts.
this game singlehandedly cured my sadness. i have never felt so alive than in the moments where i received a "wow." there is nothing like attempting to perfectly mind meld with your friends and this game has allowed me to form deeper more long-lasting relationships with the people i care about, even across great distances. i could not recommend this game enough. you will be happy. i promise. (unless you don't get a wow)
So much fun- but you really have to play in person/with video for players not in the same physical space. Would LOVE to see an in app chat feature so you only had to have the app running to play!
I loved the board game version, but it never got played. We play this app version as a family every night. Clever and lots of opportunities to be funny. Awesome art, fun emojis. Perfect.
Lots of games don’t include communication. However, this game is cooperative and includes communication. Love it!! Definitely recommend it for family and friend group games!
Such a fun game, board game version and phone game version. Fun to play as a group activity or with your date while you wait for dinner. Unique and fun aesthetics too!
This a fire game, me and my friends very much enjoy. Me and my friends all played it at lunch one time then they forgot it existed but it was good while it lasted. 🔥
I love the game when my mom showed me I fell in love .but when I showed my bff the game um it glitched and WHITH the second time when I played it WHITH my ant and cousin . And I reported but any it goodd.
Hi! We have the physical game and make our own custom game packs for themed events. Can we buy an IAP to make our own custom packs? I would give 5 stars for sure and spend the money!
This might be my favorite social game. The app to is an extraordinary rendition of a simple, perfect concept: beautiful graphics, delightful mechanics, great prompts. Highly recommend!
