Leave a Review Selfie Poker
No stats. Meh
Some stats would make me want to play this more. Or at least a score board, top 20 highest scores with initials. Yep good old fashion scoreboard with initials. Yep, I share my iphone with my family.thespaciousmind
Very clever solo game
It’s so hard to find good solo card games that strike the right balance between casual and strategic. This game nails it. Everything is done right here. And the design is gorgeous.
I love that it saves progress at all times, because I can only play in short spurts. It’s just easy enough to learn to be accessible, while still providing a unique strategic challenge. You have to think, but it’s not overly hard or frustrating. It’s perfect for semi-casual gamers and strategic thinkers alike. And the component of luck makes it not frustrating.
I only docked one star because it could use battery optimization, it runs a tad warm and drains a tad more than a game like this should. It’s tolerable though since I play in short spurts anyway. I hope it can someday be updated to mitigate this. It’s not bad enough to avoid playing though. Especially since the developer made it free with no ads or IAP, you can’t complain. This free game is better than most paid card games, and it’s unique, you won’t find anything like it.
I totally recommend this game and applaud the developer for monetizing so generously. You clearly care about the art of good gaming. Thank you!Show lessWRS15743
A Brilliant Engaging Game
This is an excellent solitaire game that triggers all of the same areas of my brain that sprang into action playing live games of open-face poker.
I have now played innumerable rounds of Selfie Poker and love its structure and the challenges that it presents. It is perfect.Infideluxe
Here’s your review
Suddenly, this game is asking for a review after almost every hand. This never happened before, so I guess there must have been an “update”. So, here you go! If I could give zero stars’ I would.

Update 5/4/2019: After reading the developer’s response, I have revised my rating to four stars. I enjoy playing the game, which is a fun way to pass the time. The game stopped asking for reviews, but I’m not sure if that was because I rebooted my iPad.Show lessBorn to fish, forced to work

The game hasn't been updated for almost a year so it's not that ) Also, on iOs you can't ask for a review more often than 3 times per year or something. So it does look like a bug, but I'm not sure I can do anything about it.Love the game but
The game is fun. But there are a number of times I have had a pair on the bottom and the game ended. It is frustrating.Cuzzin21

What sometimes happens is that you have a pair at the bottom and two high cards at the top and middle, but the high card at the middle is a higher rank than the one at the top level, and since High card is a valid poker combination, it still results in a loss. Unfortunately, it's too easy to miss that while playing and this is probably the thing I dislike the most about the game, so I understand your frustration.Newest favorite
This game has it all - highly addictive, clean UI, Good mix of skill/luck, NO ADS, and huge replay value. It’s the kind of game you can play if you need 5 minutes to kill without fail. Looking forward to seeing future updatesJbdrum
Awesome game

STUPIDITY MANAGEMENT
This would be a 5-star game except for the manner of dealing out losing hands i have nothing to do with. The game starts and i’ve lost because i only have one card left to draw and it doesn’t pair with anything. Which means some programmer played may hand poorly and then handed it over to me. Intolerable, and worse, unplayable.
I see no good reason for an app to arbitrarily destroy a lot of well thought out play. Ultimately it’s the company’s loss. Delete.
Thank’s for your reply. I have, believe it or not, retracted reviews in the past, so you will understand that I cannot agree with your response, so much so that I have deleted your app. You obviously cannot see the foolishness of playing someone’s entire hand and then handing them a silver-plated loss. The first series I played upon downloading your app gained a score of over 500. Since then I have only cracked 200 a couple of times, and what you refer to as “poor play” is only the most brilliant play as to have survived. Your system needs a serious rethink. Out of all of my losses I have only earned (by my terms) 4 or 5 losses compared to the dozens that are just handed to me. I know what poker is all about. I’ve been at it for a lifetime. Pity you can’t bluff in your app.Show lessEageralanpoe

Hi. Thanks for the input. Just to clarify things, dealing out cards between rounds is completely random. We don’t control randomness in any way. I agree that it could be frustrating to be “handed” loss at the begining of the round, but this situation happens only if player did poorly in the previous round. The whole idea of the game is that you start the next round with cards left from the previous. I personally feel, that situations when we are doing poorly and have to rely on luck to survive are exciting and crucial for the game. Also, there ways to strategically limit impact of luck at this step. At the same time, I understand your frustration and agree that it has it’s merits. Thanks for playing.Game mode suggestion
It would be cool to have a mode where the not used cards are put back in a fixed order instead of at random.iPanick
Addictive and fun!
Nice game to play!Shadowshades16
