I heard about this game through Skeptics Guide to the Universe Podcast. I really like it. The questions are well written and challenging.

Great game to learn some great facts and test your knowledge and critical thinking skills. I found this game from SGU and I am glad they let me know about it. I have been telling all my friends and family about this game!
I also found this through the SGU. Its a great way to pass the time when I have a couple of minutes to spare.
Needs more questions...although I guess I could add some rather than complain...
On a technical level, Quizclash has made a good start. The interface is simple to use. They make it easy to find random opponents. The only obvious flaw is that an opponent can avoid playing for days and they are not penalized in the point system. But the quiz questions are the weakest link. They mostly seem to be written by folks under 30. So you will find a movie question about current celebrities. But I have yet to see any question about the movie actors from the 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s, even the 60s. Even the history questions are skewed towards a young audience. They cover the last few decades but none of the important early stuff like the Louisiana Purchase or Dred Scott Decision.
Great UI, intuitive scoring and simple match ups. Content tend to repeat from time to time, but overall a great experience.
I love how this app doesnt have time limits or purchasable content (besides the premium version of the game) that impacts the gameplay in any way. That has always irritated me about other apps. I also hate when apps push notifications on you besides the ones when its your turn, Quiz Clash thankfully keeps it simple. In addition, I think that some of the questions are far more challenging then some other quiz apps. However, I still have gotten more than a few repeat questions so I would like to see more questions added in the future.
Im having a blast playing against friends and strangers alike. I like the timed aspect. It keeps me in my toes and adds some urgency to the game.
This game is quick and easy and you are able to add quiz questions to it, as well as to chat with those you play against.
Upside: Im having a lot of fun challenging my recall with Quiz Clash. Thanks to the SGU for recommending it. Downside: The Mgr. Seems to want to limit chats. Got pretty chatty with one opponent until someone @ Quizclash central threw the circuit breaker. Now, when I click the chat button the program dumps me. No way to respond to her now. Emailed the company but nada. Too bad.
Ive run out of time before its around 36hr mark but thats because notifications dont work. I havent tried redownloading it yet. I doubt itll make a difference.
Straight forward It is a fun game that brings me a lot at the same time.
There are very few "gimme" questions, which I appreciate since Im a big ol nerd. Since Im an _old_ nerd, it would be nice if the custom avatars had a grey/silver hair option. So far, thats my only complaint. Ive got to drop my rating because the problem of QC crashing when one tries to access the message section has been known to the developers for weeks now but remains unresolved.
Great prep course when applying to get into Jeopardy.
I found this through the Skeptics Guide to the Universe. Im hoping to play against one of the rogues soon.
I love this game! And the chat option is a big plus for me, too. Ive learned loads by playing this game and so far everything that Ive "questioned" as not the right answers has turned out correct after further research by myself. No glitches, bugs or anything so far. Great game!
I found this app through Skeptical Guide to the Universe too. Youre supposed to be able to submit questions that are reviewed by the makers of the app and then integrated into the game but they have not accepted any of my questions with Skeptical subjects.
Fun game, entertaining, educational, and a great way to pass time.
Good game but needs more questions. Too many repeats.
Helps to keep your general knowledge in good shape!
