Gameplay

Effect on cheating
The game is written from an English dialect perspective, as well as contains some unfamiliar words, causing some people to turn to cheating sites or apps to get the correct answers.[4] According to psychology PhD Jamie Madigan, "people are more likely to cheat when they are anonymous, and they'll cheat less the more they are connected to other gamers—the more, in other words, that they are known."[5]
Reception
4 Pics1 Word has received mostly positive reviews.
There is also a German version of the game called 4 Bilder 1 Wort[8] and a Spanish one called 4 Fotos 1 Palabra.
