Some games are awesome some obviously are not and why I say that is 1 some games don’t have cash prizes 2 the baseball game on my phone I can’t speak for anybody else but it has a timing problem sometimes where the bat doesn’t swing when you hit the swing button and the pairing of opponents I understand but let’s say that person has played before and had to open a new account for whatever reason and u get paired with that person and they blow you out the water if that happens I feel like the new player should at the least get a free rematch or their money back. And I was aborted from a game quite a bit of times and got my refund except for the last one that I’ve been trying to get back for 2 days now they keep saying we will get with you in 24 hrs we’ll that hasn’t happened so I’m a little upset with that process and had a game that’s been holding a 10$ prize for 7 days and the “handbook” says I’ll get my entry fee back and no dice so far but if u just wanna have fun it’s got great games if u want to make money be careful of the games you choose

I’ve been playing skillz games for a couple of months winning some and losing some. Winning more than i was losing but when it a 2/3 payout you have to be winning a lot more than losing or you won’t make money and slowly lose. I was cool with that. I understood and at my skill level I lost a couple hundred the first month but still I knew what was up and chose to continue. The last couple of days I have been winning 70-80% of the games I played finally getting some money back still negative in grand total but up for the week and they shut down my account without giving me a reason and will not respond to any of my emails. They stole everything i had in my account on there without giving any of that back. All I got was a generic email saying i broke one of the rules i agree’d and included all of the rules to look through. I read through it and there was not a rule on there i broke. I haven’t done anything differently this entire time i’ve played. They didn’t have any issue when i was losing but once you develop a pattern of winning they term you and still take all you money. Impossible to make money if you can only be on the app if your losing money. STAY AWAY and if you’ve had a similar experience join me in reporting this scam to the BBB.

There is one really cool feature about this app: top replay (for some of their more popular apps). Other than that, it was mostly disappointing. There are low res images throughout the UI, so not enjoyable to look at. There is no where to go and get player generated match codes for games that don’t have a chat (which I only bring up because they have restricted the limited apps that do have the chat feature to only sharing match codes for their game alone). Also, they still don’t list all the Skillz games. Their link to discover new games takes you out of the app to their website that only shows maybe 30% of the games available. So we can no longer mention in chat other games we’re playing, and then Skillz doesn’t even show all the games on their site. What’s even worse, their website still showcases games that are no longer available. 🤦🏼‍♀️ I expected so much more from this app.
