It’s another 1% Club<\/em> app. But don’t turn over! Because this marks the return of Bother’s Bar favourite gameshow app developer Barnstorm Games! Of all the ones that do a really good job of letting you just play the show on an app like The Chase<\/strong>, Tipping Point<\/strong> et al. It’s been ages since they last seemed to release something, and we’re thrilled to say that if you want a version of The 1% Club<\/strong> to play on your phone, The 1% Club World Challenge<\/em> is the best one, it is \u00a31.99 on the Google Play store<\/a> at the time of writing (and is presumably the same on Apple).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It plays a 1:1 version of the TV show albeit without Lee Mack’s crowdwork. It’s “schtick” is that you’re playing against 99 other people from around the world, however you’re clearly not playing them live and I don’t know if you’re being shown their actual response or they’re just there as AI figures – basically I recognised quite a few names in the games I played, don’t be alarmed if you come across me getting a stupid question wrong (ahem). Answers where you have to type a word might be a bit easier than the show in that you tap the first letter and then it comes up with six options – I suppose this is an easier solution than having to parse misspelt answers or whatever.<\/p>\n\n\n

It will also track statistics for you. It promises over 1,000 questions – I presume these have been asked on the show rather than bespoke. I absolutely will take paying \u00a32 for a full package over a microtransaction wait-for-six-hours-to-get-some-currency model. It’s another barnstormer from Barnstorm, welcome back!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
