Leave a Review Bridge Card Game Classic
Developer doesn’t know bridge
Terrible bidding, partner’s bids are outrageous. Can’t over emphasize how many times your partner will bid ridiculously. Bidding over you THREE TIMES with only 5 in a suit when you have seven? Jump shifting without opening points? Then jump shifting AGAIN in the same bid sequence? Responding in the opening suit with no support and a way better suit to respond that they didn’t bid? The play isn’t much better, RARELY being able to finesse, more than normal bad splits (one of the opponents having NO trump), basically Murphy’s Law algorithms. Finessing is a given though, and second hand low might allow a 4th hand trick take with a 5, lol. If you want to challenge yourself to bid and play against the worst of conditions, this is the app for you.Show lessrequire truth

Appreciate the feedback. We are continuing to make updates. User feedback speeds up the improvement process. Please use the internal Contact Us option within game and we'll sort out the bidding.Favoring east and west
I used to love this game until I started to see some patterns. East and west almost always get hands they can bid on. Rarely and I mean very very rarely they can’t bid. Even when north and south are given a good hand, east and west get a good competitive hand. That’s ok once in a while, it makes the game challenging, but when it happens all the time, it’s not quite the same. I’m playing as south and north will often bid when it doesn’t even have enough Trump (that it’s calling), to make the point. It’s also over bid me on a few occasions and come to find out, it’s only got 2-3 of that suit. Not nearly enough to even call much less win. Between this app and another that always makes the partner way over bid every time, I’ve basically lost my taste for this game. So this is a great app to make you hate the game. It will pull you in making you think it’s set up ok, but you will start to notice how every hand your opponents ALWAYS get a good competitive hand. Not an issue once in a while, but when it happens all the time it is an issue!!Show lessTriquatra12
Bridge rules
This game does not follow the simplest rules of bridge: Return your partners lead; in no Trump, lead fourth from your longest and strongest suit; a beginning 2 bid is a force bid….partner has to bid something to give some idea of support or not; a four no Trump bid after several bids is a convention bid. It is asking for Aces… if you have none-bid 5 clubs…if you have 1 bid 5 diamonds… if you have 2 bid 5 hearts… if you have 3 bid 5 spades. Don’t open with a dang 3 card suit. Usually need 4 of a major suit or 5 of a minor suit to open depending on the rest of the hand. It is so frustrating for someone to develop a game and not know what the heck they are doing!Show lesshuddy hudster
Doesn’t play how I would expect
Computer as my partner often bids light - opening with 10 points and a flat hand, or responding to my opener with only 2 or 3 in my suit (always leaving me as declarer for a contract we shouldn’t be in) and in card play when defending, consistently leads off with any ace, setting up my king. If this is AI it has a fair way to go yet.Show lessReflect 33
Bidding and play
So for the bidding. Why on hard mode does your partner open with anything and if you don’t respond with the same suit they will not continue the bid where I was telling them my best suit and that I have 6-9 points myself. Also when the computer bids 1 club it doesn’t understand that when that is bid it means you have points in most or all suits and need your partner to pick a suit that you have the most of. This game makes me want to uninstall it when I knew I had almost 25 points and my partner just passed when they had 6-9 points and a decent suit to call their trump so I could bid game like I wanted to. Also it doesn’t understand that when you start with something over the 1 level you have an amazing suit or hand and want to go to game. It’s almost impossible to get your partner to bid over the 3 level but the opponent computers have no problem bidding their hands….
As for play why does every computer know exactly what aces and kings and that their partner is void immediately on opening and they always get all the early tricks they could…
For the partner computer if it knows every ace or king it should play at the beginning then why can it not keep up with the fact that they are void and while the card I played to the board is bigger than that one it is not bigger than the top one out and so they should trump…Show lessNook96
Love your online bridge.
I have played this bridge for ages and I do love it. However my so-called computer partner does not always seem to be on my side. Some of the bids seem to be made intentionally so that we'll lose. when I could've made a three bid my partner goes to four. Even though his point count does not warrant it.
I also know that all three computer players know all the cards in play. this gives the human player a disadvantage.
Finally, I estimate that only 25% of my hands have a count high enough to make an opening bid. In real life I do much better than that.
Even if you can't change what I consider flaws could you explain to me why you do the game the way you do it.Show lessNona Peggy

Hi Nona, We have several conventions. Please update to the latest. :)Developer doesn’t know bridge

Bidding is consistently over bid by the partner. When playing defense the lead never misses the finesse because the program sees and counts all cards which could never happen in real games.still it’s cheap and good past time.1240oldguy
Irrational North behaviors
Very challenging to play with this app. North bidding and play demonstrate little normally expected behaviors. For example: opening bid with 3 card suit but 5 card suit in hand. Appears to bid convention to me but can’t respond to same convention. During play, North frequently leads trump when other team is playing hand but has no trump cards on board. Sometimes feels that North chooses lead based on random number generator excluding last trick suit.Show lessDocstaff

I love this app. Been playing it for years. You get a new hand every time. While there are flaws in the partners bidding, it’s still fun. But I wish the computer partner would be able to Double an opponent’s hand when its so obvious we’re going to win. My biggest complaint, though, is that when the Google Ads appear, they cover up the menu at the bottom. Making it impossible to view the score or replay the hand. Perhaps they can be moved to another part of the screen?? Thank you for listening!Show lessLeland Bridge Babe

Appreciate the feedback. We are working on fixing the bidding. The over trumping was a bug and should be corrected in the latest version coming out this week. To unhide last trick, press card on top left of screen. We've fixed this glitch also, until then please use that procedure. We are constantly working the issues and updating. Thank you for playing :)
