FanDuel Faceoff Positive Reviews
Fun but puzzlingKing’s Cross is a novel puzzle game, which I have enjoyed as a chess player. Double move bonus is not worth making any extra moves, but keeping 2 squares open near the king will generally help you be more efficient.
Paid contest model makes no sense unless you are the very best player at a game (and maybe not even then). I had my first tie in Wheel today, and it turns out the winnings are split in this case, making both players net losers (I’d rather get a refund, like a push in betting).
I hope there might be innovation so that it actually makes sense to keep playing paid contests. Also, it would be nice to see, for a specific puzzle, say, the few top scores from players, rather than just the top/average of oneself and the opponent over all puzzles, as they vary by difficulty, etc..Silver83pVersion: 1.0.4
Great UI, Feels ScammyI've only played Solitaire Sprint and Block Trail. The design is great. I appreciate the clean interface in solitaire especially. They claim the games are fair but there is zero transparency. To break even you have to win 60% of your games. I've been playing solitaire for over 50 years and I'm pretty good at it but I'm right around 50%. It is impossible unless you're a genius, and even then I have doubts that anybody can get money out of. It appears the design is to prevent any withdrawals as opposed to the regular FanDuel app that is regulated and very fair.
Block Trail is a really cool game on the surface. Has this relaxing music in the background. Yet when you play you're facing an antagonistic computer opponent. It does not want you to succeed and holds all of the cards so to speak. In say a regular Tetris game, all the blocks are random. Not here. It gives you the worst blocks guaranteed. Playing this game is a really bizarre experience. My question is how are these betting games not regulated?.Brooklyn salsaVersion: 2.16.0
Not really for meIf you like going up head to head with people live this could be fun. Not really my cup of tea, but the games are fun and seamless if you don’t mind live competition. Stresses me out a little too much but nothing against the app’s design or layout. I tried all the games for free and they were fun, I just know I’d likely lose against people playing this stuff all the time.
Side note, I do enjoy the reviews of people saying they lose more than they win. Hello people, that’s nearly any game that involves betting. If you want professional odds, go to an actual casino and play blackjack, but even there if you win too much you’ll get noticed. It’s hilarious that people come into these apps thinking they will walk away with more than they put in. It happens of course, but rarely. The whole point is to make money for these companies or they wouldn’t even exist let alone develop more apps. Stop fantasizing..TrumpFan4everVersion: 1.7.4
Side hustle cash?You won’t make any. The algorithms created by its developers will not allow you to walk away ahead whatsoever. Sure you might catch a wave where you’re all of a sudden up a few hundred bucks. You can cash it out right away. But don’t think for a second that will ever happen again (especially after cashing out) until you lose 3x minimum of what you cashed out prior. Then maybe you’ll catch another wave… rinse and repeat. Basically it’ll get to a point where you enter a game, if the game thinks you’ve too much lately, it’ll only place users that get a higher score than you into that particular game in turn, they win you lose. You might get the highest score you’ve ever achieved and based on previous averages of past scores, this new high score “should” beat at least 99% of other scores. The game will wait for that 1%er to come and win. Honestly probably a computer playing against..GAM3R GLOV3SVersion: 2.12.0
Some outstanding games just for free play. Only risk money you expect to lose!The quality of some of these strategic arcade-style games is exceptional, like block trail. As always with such games, the details are key — board size, frequency/predictability of shapes, time limit, and the like. But, it is a matched system so don't bet money unless you expect to lose it!! The system automatically matches you against people of similar score history who have a good chance of beating you. In other words, imagine your scores average in the top 1% of all players...you'll be playing against another top 1% person online. If there's no one else top 1% online at that moment, you'll be up against the next best competitor available...and so on. So just because you're good doesn't mean you're gonna win all the time.
Other highlights in terms of game quality alone:
-Buena match (fun memory game, not too easy, not too tedious).
-Scrabble Cube (excellent ui, very intuitive, good brain game combo working those spatial & linguistic cerebral muscles)
-the sports-themed games are more nuanced than you'd expect. Spieth Fairway is pretty good, and, so is Gronk Spike cornhole...aside from the very annoying animated interludes i hope they ditch..Fx1085Version: 2.13.0
Absolutely A Scam…Every contest where the margin of victory is slim, I’m on the losing side about 95% of the time. It really should be a coin flip. But the thing is, my opponents never have a bad game or even an average game. They’re either great or absolutely ridiculous. I scored over 1000 in Boggle maybe twice. My opponents score over 1000 with alarming regularity. And there’s no transparency with this. Trust us, they did better than you wink wink. Yeah right, like every time?.JuicedudeVersion: 1.4.2
A little glitchy, but great overallI’ve had a great time on the app! I’ve been using it a few months now. The best advice? Cash out once in a while. Don’t just keep betting your winnings because you might lose them. It’s gambling! I do agree that the matchup with unknown players of unknown skill levels is a bit sketchy. The fix: invite your friends! You both will get some free money when you challenge them and you’ll know exactly who you’re playing with. I also hate when my wager is lost bc the app glitches. When that happened, I contacted customer service and got a response within 30 minutes that my wager would be credited back to my account. No problems there. They don’t offer a cash out option to your debit card, but you can login to FanDuel Sportsbook and withdraw instantly from there..DsantanakyVersion: 1.4.1
Great Game HOWEVERThis is a great game and concept where I can bet my money against a random player, however the skill based matchmaking NEEDS to go. I get skill based matchmaking in most online games, but when we are betting money the matchmaking needs to be random. If i am better than 90% of online players in a certain game I should win 90% of the time and have money to show for it. I should not be matched up with the top 10% of the competition where all the best players trade money with each other. Chumps shouldn’t be given free wins. If I wanted to play for fun I wouldn’t be betting money. The point of this app is to bet and win real money meaning we should be able to do that against random opponents to increase the incentive to actually be good at the game!.ZbensingVersion: 2.1.0
Fun, but watch out.The games are fun and you CAN make money. But once I get on a roll with a particular game, I get matched against the same mysterious person and they put up impossible numbers. I can match make incredibly fast and rifle off 4-5 games and they’re all against the exact same person who is getting a perfect score everytime. This happens over the course of a day or two. I put the game down for a day, come back, win a bunch and then again - that same mysterious person that always gets a perfect score or near perfect somehow right when I start winning again.
I have made a little money. Nothing really crazy and hardly worth mentioning. Download for some fun and STOP when they start cheating..BigBucFanVersion: 1.8.2
ScamThere should be transparency showing who you are playing against, BOTH players should start at the same time and you should be able to see how the other player scored. Imagine playing blackjack or poker and never being able to see the other players cards after the game. Dealer says you lose…trust us. Waaaaaay to high rake for FanDuel. Should be 5% max. No more deposits from me. And now it doesn’t let you see the stats of who you played against and it also removed the easy to see win/loss history of your past games. Getting even more suspicious. Statically it seems very odd (impossible?) I could win 8 games in a row and then immediately lose 8 games in a row. That is a clear sign the outcomes are alogrymically controlled and not a game of chance..Melting fireVersion: 1.1.1
Fun but FrustratingI absolutely love being able to wager a little over a fun mini phone game. My issues with this rely heavily on the matchmaking. There are far too many times where it feels like no matter how well I do, I’m going to lose to a pre determined matchup. I play the same 4 people day in day out as my average is amongst the higher tiers. Namely, “tyschmidt” who I pray is not the real Ty Schmidt cuz why would he want my 60 cents?
Anyways, the performance of the app will randomly go down the drain as well in the middle of a paid game. If I’m lining up a shot and activate a power up like 2x, the game will drop frame rates TERRIBLY and make the game impossible to play as it’s entirely timing based. So this needs a performance fix desperately and a rework to the SBMM (skill based matchmaking)..LlamasLickMeVersion: 1.1.1
Recent update punishes above-average playersAt first this was a fun app where a skillful player could make a few bucks because you would always be paired with a random opponent. However a recent change now means you are only paired with opponents of the exact same skill level. This makes it a 50/50 coin toss and the only winner is the app which rakes 20% per matchup..MisiaZVersion: 1.2.0
Big fan!!…I love fan duel face off and I can’t wait to see what additions are made to enhance the app, but one thing I would like to see is a confirmation button. I have accidentally joined some paid games without intending to do so, and it has cost me money a few times. If you choose to play a game I would like to see a confirmation of entry so that if a person didn’t mean to press “play” they don’t lose money over it..HeyyyJ03Version: 1.7.6

FanDuel Faceoff Negative Reviews
100% Chance You Won’t WinFirst off, please do not fall for the 4.7 rating, it is a complete lie. There is absolutely no way real customers are giving this app that high of a rating. Any rating of four or five stars is without a doubt fabricated by AI or the people at FanDuel Faceoff. It’s really not that hard to tell lol.
Second, before you think about downloading this app, take a second and do your own research and look up to see how many real people have made posts on social media about how they’ve won money from playing on this app. A little hint: you won’t find anything, and that’s bc this app won’t let real customers actually win. All the money deposited into this app is kept by FanDuel. Anyone who is naive enough to think that people at FanDuel would play by the rules and be fair, are kidding themselves. People love to celebrate when winning, and you can’t find it anywhere on social media or online of folks saying “I won $20 from FanDuel Faceoff today!” Nothing. I find that very odd tbh.
And thirdly, there is absolutely no oversight for these apps, at least not yet. These apps are stealing millions on lies and false advertisement. Yes, I thought that was against the law as well. But when the people who are supposed to be enforcing the law are getting a piece of the pie, well it’s not that difficult to see why they’ve been getting away with it for so long..ChiefsKidz15Version: 1.7.5
Fraud FaceoffFairway Frenzy is a scam, i have never seen anything like this in my whole life. They say “oh we match you based on skill level” as if this is skill based matchmaking in call of duty…..MONEY IS AT STAKE! If a person feels confident to place .60 or $3 on a fairway frenzy head to head, thats their problem. Am i their mommy? Am i supposed to hold their hand? Soo basically if u win enough in a row theyll just put you up against people who r either playing on PC so they dont make mistakes even though the wind is blowing 30 mph OR they just dig a higher score out of a pool so u get beat by 2 points.
Yeah theres people playing Fairway Frenzy on a computer. That back and forth meter that u have to release every time you hit the golf ball…..theres people that stop the meter perfectly in the center with their mouse…while your bozoa$$ is swiping your thumb on your tiny phone screen. Their back and forth meter doesnt glitch at critical moments like your does lol. Thats all that matters! Its impossible to win on a phone against these people. Thats who they make you go up against if u go on any kind of win streak..Mabrey65Version: 2.19.0
Intermittent Reinforcement99% of players will never profit anything in the long run playing these games. You can win 10 games in a row and then immediately miraculously lose 11 games in a row, win 4 out of 5 and then lose 7 in row. Typical intermittent reinforcement scam that has been used by slot machines in casinos forever but unfortunately there is no chance of hitting a jackpot on this app and they take a 33% rake for your participation in their highly profitable con job. Overall I have won 1200 games total and I have lost 1350. I know several people with skill levels higher and lower than me that have this exact same win loss ratio. The app Skillz offers cash games with multiple gaming apps as well with this same type of intermittent reinforcement matchmaking algorithm but AT LEAST THE GAMES ON SKILLZ OFFER REPLAY VIDEOS OF YOUR OPPONENTS MATCHES!! FANDUEL HAS 100x MORE MONEY THAN SKILLZ THEY COULD EASILY PROVIDE A REPLAY VIDEO OF YOUR OPPENENTS MATCH, THE FACT THAT THEY DONT IS UNBELIEVABLE! It’s impossible to determine whether fanduel is using bots but im sure there’s a widely unknown reason why this app is illegal in over 20 states..Intermittently20Version: 1.6.0
Total Scam Don’t Waste Your Time/MoneyThis app is such a scam it shouldn’t even be legal. It’s impossible to consistently win because the higher you score in a game, your opponents scores keep increasing (and who knows if your opponent is even real).
They say they match you with people of a similar skill level to “make it fair” but all that means is if you’re good you’ll win most games at first then your opponents scores keep increasing and you’ll end up winning about 50% of the time while these scam artists take 10-15% of the pot for every game. The whole thing is designed so nobody can consistently win no matter how good you are and they can keep stealing money for every game played.
If they just randomly matched you with whoever was playing at the time it would probably be worth using and the better you are the more money you’d make, but they’re too greedy and want to keep everyone playing longer so they make more money. Don’t give these scam artists your money, if anything they should be getting served with a class action lawsuit..Rondo1017Version: 1.7.4
Don’t start playing its rigged against youYou can score almost a perfect score and then what they do is wait until someone has a higher score (this has happened multiple times) but that opponent is not playing the same game as you or I my case with free cell the same cards. I’ve asked customer service about if my opponent is playing the same exact games with same exact cards because in my opinion Some games are harder than others. And they couldn’t answer my question. I’ll go from having many different opponents online to all of a sudden waiting for hours then act like your opponent either played the same game as you or beat you. Which is not the case they’re just waiting for someone to have a higher score on an easier game(level of difficulty) My guess is the hav some sort of algorithm where it’s slowly drains you not to mention the win amount compared to bet is very small. For anyone who reads save your money or just make bets that are honest for you..TechniqueeeVersion: 2.10.0
Rigged Money GrabThis obviously just a way for Fanduel to make money without actually paying anything out. The winnings are smaller than the prize pool between 2 players, as Fanduel takes a cut of every game. The more you win, (especially on games like Scrabble Cubes) the harder it will get, giving you entire sides of the cube that have no vowels and make it pretty impossible to make words let alone high scoring ones. In these instances it will also put you against a newer player that the game generates easier puzzles for to get them hooked in. They will get 700 points on what has to be a completely different puzzle, unless they know words made up of all “T”s and “V”s, beat you every time, and then presumably get the mess of consenants that you were getting and lose whatever they made while Fanduel makes a couple bucks. Don’t install this app unless you want to play for free or make $3 one time. You’re better off setting up a lemonade stand in your front yard..Fanduel StinxVersion: 1.5.2
You won’t ever winThey say it’s skill based and assure you that it’s fair - then why do I lose to people over and over by scores way higher than any score I ever got. I can’t even verify that it’s correct because you cannot see anything your opponent does. Most people will never win with this app it is fun to play the games though. Additionally the rake is crazy high. What stops them from reserving a score close to yours and then letting one win one Tim then the next win the second time. If you win half the games the rake just keeps dwindling both parties money until once again you are adding funds. Also with the skill match I’m guessing I’m never lowered in skill because I have had some tough boggle boards and gotten lower scores but opponents scores seem so high.
One final thing the app says it’s rated 4.8 out of five but when you scroll through the reviews there are way more one star reviews then five star reviews what’s up with that.Re0318Version: 1.7.2
Do not play this app it’s a scamTheir match making algorithm isn’t explained I don’t even understand how it’s legal what they’re doing. Once you start winning a few games they change up their matching and it takes multiple hours before you’re matched to someone whose score is somehow always higher than yours even though you were consistently putting up winning scores days prior. They purposely try and keep you in the 50% win margin so they can take their 33% rake from a match. Players lose money by staying or just above a 50% win rate cause they match you with higher scores that aren’t real time heck they could even be bots. I’d recommend reporting fan duel to your local congress person because this is straight up fraud what they’re doing.
Also it’s glitchy and there customer service doesn’t work I have a great picture of there customer service just asking me 4 times what state I’m in.GummyberesVersion: 1.4.2
Absolute scamI signed up under a new user promo that offered a 100% deposit bonus within 72 hours. It has been over a week, I never received a bonus. The promo promised that I could withdraw my deposit at any time with no penalty, but when I tried to do so, it said deposited money must be played before it can be withdrawn. I had to request a refund. Customer service promised that if I did, I would still receive the bonus. I’ve spent hours talking to customer service, both to get a refund on my deposit, and to check on the bonus, which they have promised me each day for the last week, assuring me I am still 100% eligible per the terms and that it “should arrive later today.” The last person I spoke to said they will be reaching out via email.
Avoid this app like the plague. They are trying to steal your money. They also willfully break the terms of their own agreements..Let me log in pleaseVersion: 1.3.2
Perfect place to give away your money!I’ve been playing Fan Duel Faceoff since its inception and I think it’s a wonderful app for making Fan Duel cash hand over fist. They try to make you believe it’s on the “up and up”, but the only “up” here is the pure profit theses guys steal from their customers.
We’ve pretty much nailed down the algorithm they use to draw people in and get them to believe they have a chance to win something, but in the end the playing field is tilted towards the house.
I HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend this app to those bored rich people who have nothing better to do than waste their money away or for Parent company stock holders that just want to buoy their stock price by artificially inflating the reported gross revenues, but for the casual player or those that value their money, STAY FAR AWAY FROM THIS APP … unless you have the fortitude to just play the free games and want to pass the time..SmilinjoePVersion: 1.8.2
Biggest scamHuge scam, you “play” the same person 20 times in a row, they always end up beating you by hundreds or thousands of points even though there is no other possible way to earn more points in the game you played so it doesn’t make sense. Don’t understand why skill match making is a thing when I play a game that may have harder letter cubes in boggle or crappy power ups in the basketball game. I can play a perfect game in the swish game and the computer beats me by 2,000 points. Unless they got better power ups than I did there is no possible way for them to win and they got an easier game than I did. Also hilarious the rating says 4.8/5 when there’s nothing but bad reviews? And even if they aren’t 1 stars they’re no better than a 3, I guess fudging your ratings is just as easy as scamming people into “skill based match making” to take their money.Marcina316Version: 1.7.2
ScamYou do not play another player. You play a cpu, you will win 2 out of like 10. Then when you win they compare your score to another player but they will find they highest score so they can take your money.
My biggest issue is with the game plays as it begins to glitch and cause they game to give you a lower score rather the free version. Game wont performance doesn’t match play. (Perfectly time throws coming out overthrown or hits being way harder than the game determined you did. I noticed when I began to win. They make it where it is impossible to win. If you out play the computer they just line you up with the highest scored player no matter how long it takes to set you up with a match like it’s delayed until a score can beat you. I had some where I’m waiting 30 mins for a matched player. Then just to see you barley lost . Again. Insanity.JohnnyDoloVersion: 1.7.2
Be careful! Too Easy to Accidentally play PAID games!I actually love the games. I play the free games and occasionally play a paid one. The problem is it is way too easy to click on a paid game. The free games are on the top of the list and they throw paid games to the top once and I’ve been guilty of not paying attention. The games need a safety feature, to ask if you really want to spend money from your account. If I want to buy a game on the App Store I have to click to confirm. I was trying to get back to the main menu and I paid for a $12 game of golf. If it just gave me a chance to cancel or asked me to confirm I would recommend this as a fun way to play some competitive games. But buyer beware! And they could also warn you when your promo credits are about to expire. Frustrating!.MadHockey99Version: 2.16.0
Algorithm RIGGED against you.You are totally matched based on the points you score in that specific contest, NOT your overall skill level. There’s a difference.
You can wait for hours while the contest says “waiting for an opponent”, most of the time after putting up a high score. But when you put up a way lower score than what you usually do, you get matched up right away, to someone who averages way lower than you, and most of the time they end up barely winning against you. It’s like they want to encourage that other player to keep playing, to your benefit.
Fanduel will say they have no interest in your games, and don’t have any vested interest in which way the contest goes (they def. get their money’s worth) but the way the algorithm is rigged, they don’t need to worry about you making a profit.
And God-forbid your game glitches, and charge you extra entry fees, and you go to Fanduel Support with clear proof that it did, and they don’t give you your money back.
Oh, I’m waiting for the response to this review. “I’m sorry that this happened you, message our support team with your concerns and we’ll look more into it”. - sure..JayDee2145678Version: 1.3.2
ScamI was originally going to leave a good review, because when you first download and play you actually do come up a few dollars, but then it gets old. After you receive your finally score from the games, it either says “open” or “playing”. What it seems like is their purposely not matching random people to play at the exact same time, because they look at your score, then match you with probably a bot with an higher score, so you lose. That’s not how these type of games are supposed to go, if the games are all titled “head to head”, you should be head to head with somebody not matched with somebody after your score is out. It went from a 50/50 chance of winning based on skill to a 10% chance of winning evening a dollar..Kaci10203Version: 2.19.0
Shouldn’t be legalI’ve been playing this game for a week now. Here is what I’ve figured out. You’re not playing some random person at the same time. So don’t even think you are going to beat everyone you play. You’re playing against a score that could have been played months ago. Which means the more you win the higher the score you’re going to have to beat. How do I know all this ??? Because I can start a game and end it way before it’s over and my opponent has miraculously finished their game!!! How is that possible?? Because their score is predetermined by how well you have been playing. FanDuel wants everyone to have a 50% winning percentage and rake in the game fees. Slow death to everyone’s accounts.
The games are fun but I promise everyone will be losing their account on Faceoff.
This should not be legal!!!!!!.87652971538484Version: 1.1.2
SCAMSCAM. Terribly misleading. Terrible customer service that takes multiple days to get someone that knows English or someone who knows what they are talking about. Has a rewards program so I thought I would give it a go because they advertise that if u earn a certain number of FDP a month then u get rewarded a certain amount of free play for the next month and in my case it was 250$ monthly free play and 50$ a week free play. When it comes time for ur free play they give u a voucher for a contest labeled “50$ weekly free play” so u enter that contest and how many people r in the contest? 60,000. What’s the top prize? 10$. Yes that’s right. You spend money to earn points to get these rewards that r advertised then they yank the carpet out from under you. It’s terribly misleading and very unfortunate. I thought FanDuel was better than this.UguysdidagreatjobVersion: 1.7.6
THIS APP IS A JOKE!!!!!! ESPECIALLY CUSTOMER SUPPORT!!!When I initially downloaded from a friends’ invite everything was going smoothly. Then I started noticing certain patterns in their algorithm. For example ( if you start winning too many times they’ll put you against one of their ai generated bots or they’ll leave your game in the que until someone with a higher score comes along). I actually enjoy playing the games that they have on here but I wouldn’t recommend anyone to bet any of their hard earned money. They also have the absolute worst customer support you will ever encounter!!! They’ll tell you that they have escalated the problem and to keep an eye on your email and the only email that you’ll receive is for you to rate your experience with the support you received (no real solutions)..Sean4621Version: 2.0.0
Just a way to hand over moneyThe games are fun and the app works pretty well. Just don’t do this thinking you’ll win any money. The better you get, the better your “opponents” get.. so you won’t actually win any more. With the incredibly high rake that they keep for themselves, *you must win 65% of the time to BREAK EVEN*. Again, to break even, you must win nearly 2/3 of the time, or your account balance will continue to fall due to the money the app keeps to run the games. You may win 50% of the time thanks to their matchmaking algorithm about which there is zero transparency, but you will not, ever, win 65% of the time. It’s just a slow drain on your account with some slot machine psychology where you occasionally win to keep you addicted and playing. Just say no..Jb6153284Version: 2.1.0
Not LegitI have been using this app for a few weeks. You start playing and win. Then once you get good at the games, score high and keep playing, it gets sketchy.
There’s been multiple games where I score really high, an opponent says “playing” and then the opponent disappears and a new one is chosen, then I lose. I thought that it would be a legitimate game coming from FanDuel, but it’s just like Pocket7Games and all the other “skill for cash” games. There’s also been multiple instances where the game crashes on the loading screen and then you lose the wager without even getting to play. Very disappointing, they just want you to keep depositing.
The house always wins, unfortunately..FhjnncdeeessVersion: 1.3.0
ScamThe whole gaming model is a scam. It will certainly feed you wins for a certain stretch, and then like clockwork, feeds you the same amount of losses. The entire goal of the app is to keep gamblers engaged, as FanDuel takes 10+% on the rake.
They claim they match you against similarly skilled competition, which may be true to some degree. However, you used to be able to view the stats of your competition (avg and high score), and it was completely normal to end up matched up against someone with an average score higher than your own previous best, after winning several times in a row, of course. They’ve since disallowed viewing of other competitor stats (guessing because it raised too many eyebrows)..Fleeced1414Version: 1.7.9
Actual ScamI have been playing this game for a few weeks and the games are generally fun and easy to play. I agree with other reviews stating that the scores of the other players are sketchy and difficult to verify that you are actually getting a fair matchup against a real person. My biggest issue, however, is that this game is actively changing my score on the football mini game. Twice on cash games I got a score of over 10,000 and when returned to the main screen, my score is listed as lower than 5000. Whether this is a mistake or on purpose, FanDuel is stealing people’s money on a scam. And when I go to seek support, it says I’m “99+” place in line. Do not play this game, do not use other FanDuel products..Whydoyoucare123Version: 1.1.2
Fun up to a pointUodate: Customer service takes on average about a week to respond, and has been zero help when they do. My questions are either unanswered, or answered in an incredibly vague manner. Every live support agent gives the same answer about “not having the tools needed to correct the issue,” and that someone will “reach out via email ‘shortly’ “
I enjoyed this app for a while, but for some days now I am no longer getting matched with opponents, and my entry fee repeatedly is getting canceled and returned to me, I’ve contacted support multiple times with no success. I’ll definitely update this review once the issue gets resolved, because when it was working it was fun.MrmochiVersion: 1.2.0

Definitely fakeIf you play .60 games you’ll win enough to bet 5$ after that you win your first 5$ then you lose the next two putting u -5 they basically use bots and keep u in the negatives , yes you still win but you lose more then u win so your earned money won’t be positive ever , and the basketball game mode doesn’t make sense, you complete in tournaments but 120 is max points and every player hits it . So there really isn’t a winner , not to mention it doesn’t count your shots correctly at all , the matches I lose it saying I hit 9 out of 36 green balls (how 9 when I recorded the gameplay and only got 3 green balls and 2 power ups) so this app is high highly a scam.JordanMM23Version: 2.13.0
Love and HateThe games pay out and March you against wins and losses. I’ve won 10 games of boggle in a row thinking I’m doing good, than all of a sudden I am placed with people scoring way higher than me. It’s not based on your skill, it’s based on how lucky of a matchmaking you get, which they control. You will not win more than a few bucks no matter how many hours you put in. A fraction of every persons game fee goes to Fanduel, so they are getting rich based on your smallest success. For every 5 dollars you win Fanduel wins 500. Unless you’re rain man or take years perfecting your skill in the sports games, do not fall into the trap..ZachTheTurtleVersion: 1.7.8
Complete FraudAs others have pointed out, this app screams of fraudulent schemes. During free games, my trial is constantly scored second with immediate results of the competition. Add a wager amount, all of a sudden I’m always the first participant with a score before the competition is settled. Now why would that be?
Makes you wonder how the competition is paired? Is a free play participant being matched with a wagered participant, thereby FanDuel collecting the funds when the free play individual wins? I sure wish I could see my records broken down by game and wager amount, but that would be too telling - winning percentage of free games astronomically better than wagered games.
To back it up, interesting fact that I played the same person 4 times within 15 minutes: - $0 Game: I won by a landslide - $3 Game: opponent won by a landslide - $0.60 Game: opponent won by a landslide - $0 Game: I won by a landslide
I’m sure FraudDuel will explain it’s all random algorithms but players beware - too many commonalities to believe it’s anything but a scheme..McocitaVersion: 1.1.3
They should be suedDo not waster your money. They give you a few wins as a beginner to draw you in. Then keep matching you against the same “person” over and over who literally averages hundreds of points more than you. Even if you have a miraculous high scoring game it doesn’t matter. Theses crooks just put you against a “player” who has already scored more. Such a scam. Then when you contact them, they tell you their match making is supposed to make it fair for everyone. Meanwhile the same guy beat me 5 games in a row and when i finally put up a number higher then his casual average they switch the opponent to someone who has already won..Hon3st2goDVersion: 1.1.3
Predatory and very deceptiveIt’s very apparent that FD manipulates the outcomes by pairing you with a higher or lower score. For instance, I played several cash games and was performing around my average. I was losing but the scores were within reason comparatively. I then have an exceptionally above-average game and guess what, I still lose. This time the scores were nowhere close to the previous games. Long story short, it’s a scam and should be avoided. Save yourself the headache and frustration. Between the incredibly ridiculous rake of about 20% and FanDuel manipulating outcomes, you will lose every time. I wanted to like this app, but it’s clearly a scam and shouldn’t be allowed to operate as its predatory and deceptive..Listener9090Version: 1.0.4
Please stay awayThis app was made to make people lose money, I’ve played nearly every game on this app and I either lose or it stays in the “in progress” tab forever so I either lose money or lose money. There’s no winning in this app and it was only made for people to spend and lose money. I currently have lost about 40 bucks on this app playing mostly 3 dollar or .60 cent games and if I don’t lose them outright they stay in progress and they never get played. I’ve had 18 block trail games “in progress” for 2 weeks now, my money is stuck in a game that will never be played. You may not lose every time, but you can never win.MmmmmmmhhniyVersion: 2.7.0
FRAUDCountless times I’ve played matches of Fairway Frenzy where the timing indicator glitches EVERY time it goes past the “perfect” spot. Not to mention the times that you’ll play, have a great score, only to be “waiting on an opponent” for 6+ hours, only to find out, they just edged your score and you lose. Never have I had to wait an extended time and won. “Waiting on a better score” would be more accurate. Lastly, there have been several times where I’ve had to reach out to customer service about not receiving payment for winning games; the last of which was never responded to. This app is nothing short of a SCAM..Bunky94Version: 2.10.0
Suspicious win/loss rate - avoid this appConvinced FanDuel is using bots to keep your scores down or they pair you with people who are always slightly better than you to keep you from making any money from this app. Anytime I go on a run and make 5 or more dollars, I’ll instantly drop 5 or more dollars. After reading everyone’s comments it seems pretty clear they’re doing something fishy. The number of people who are constantly getting perfect games on golf is really suspicious. I’ll only be logging in to collect the promo cash then bounce. Not worth putting any money into this especially when they don’t disclose their algorithm. Shady practices..Nicknames are dumb1234Version: 1.7.0
SCAMMERS! DO NOT DOWNLOAD! GLITCHY APP!Horrible betting app and regret ever downloading it. Lost lots of money because of the glitches in the middle of the games and even before it even starts sometimes it just takes the initial bet and doesn’t allow you to play. Contacted customer service and they blamed my phone for the glitches which by the way I have no issues with any other apps and have the iPhone 14 pro with a bunch of storage. I even showed them proof of the glitch and they still denied it. They say they put you against players of the same level but that’s a lie. This is not fair matchmaking and I even feel like they are bots. Do not download..ColombianAndresVersion: 1.3.2
ThievesThis game is ran by criminals who just take your money. The game some how gets glitchy at exactly the right time and when you chat in to support they blame you and say it’s your internet or your device. Their reps are clueless and can’t help you, all they do is say I have sent this to the team for review. I’m pretty sure they just take random scores from others games and match them so you lose more than you win. Show me one person who has profited from this game!! You’d think since you’re not playing against the house there should be some who profit, but find me one just one and I will be shocked !!.11lamyVersion: 1.6.0
Absolute scamDo not waste your time or money at all. They will claim it is fair. They will claim they match you against fair opponents. But it will only lead you to lose. Time and again you will get matched to a superior opponent and only after you’ve lost more than you’ve won and then you deposit more money, will they then match you against opponents who are inferior. And the cycle then repeats causing you to continually lose more money. At points you will also play the same opponent repeatedly but it’s never in your favor. Take it from me who has lost more money than I’d care to admit, do not play or get addicted..An absolute scamVersion: 2.6.0
I would give zero stars if I couldBeware of this app. It is basically fraudulent. They were running a promotion - play 50 games in a week and get a $20 bonus. I had played 45 games and was getting an update after each game of how far I was on getting the bonus. After 45, no updates, and after 50, no $20. I contacted customer service and got totally brushed off - “that promotion is no longer available”. I said that’s fraud for people who played because of the promotion, and I was told that unless there was something else they could help me with, they would be ending the chat..Fthrof4Version: 1.7.5
The most obvious scamPut in $10 and by the End of losing that you will already know for a fact this app is a scam. Your not playing real people. They choose which other persons game/score to put against yours to make you win or lose. Sounds like I’m a sore loser, but if you try you will say the same thing. If you press recent on the reviews, there all 1 star. If you play bad, the other person will just beat you with a little better bad score. Play amazing, some how someone got a couple more points. It will try to hook you on the first 10 games by letting you win but don’t fall for it..AhakdkdndVersion: 2.5.0
