### 5/5 — Love This Game!

*2026-03-19, version 1.4*

I play this game almost daily.  It’s really fun and challenging.

### 3/5 — 3-13 rummy

*2025-07-27, version 1.4*

I really enjoy this game, but HATE the ads!  I’ve been playing for several years on my old IPad and had no ads.  With my 2025 iPad Pro I’m getting irritating ads after every round.  I may have paid for no ads years ago, I can’t remember, but haven’t found a place to pay and not get ads

### 3/5 — Fun game, but

*2024-07-28, version 1.4*

I would like to pay to remove the ads, but the button doesn’t respond.  Frustrating……

### 2/5 — Constantly crashes in middle of game

*2024-04-26, version 1.4*

I looooove this game but hardly ever finish one, bc it crashes in the middle of the game! Then when you open the app back up, the only option is to start a new game. Verrrry maddening.

### 1/5 — Crashing

*2024-03-13, version 1.4*

App keeps crashing, and when it reopens it’s 1-2 rounds behind. I have to replay rounds I’ve already won and it deals different hands and gives me a different outcome.

### 2/5 — Ads

*2023-06-05, version 1.4*

I used to enjoy this game. But, the game gets stuck sometimes and graphics are old looking. I am quitting the game because now there is an ad between each hand!  That’s way too many.

### 3/5 — The AI needs help

*2023-05-15, version 1.4*

The ai does not know what to do when dealt too many wild cards in hands with limited cards.

### 2/5 — This is NOT 313 I know & love

*2022-12-09, version 1.4*

Really really wanted to like it. But graphics are poor and slow—hard to read scores and see which card is wild each round. And the ads?! Totally inappropriate and disgusting, “do I want or kiss” “or something more”—what the heck. I’d pay for a way better version of the 313 game. I deleted it after my first game. Yuk. UPDATE: did try it on iPad so a bit easier to see—but an ad after every round, and political ads?! I’d love to share this with my mom but with ads, she wouldn’t know how to close them immediately. Please make this game in a version that is ad free. Will gladly pay one time $4 or $5 for NO ADS! AND please...it is so hard to read the wild number each round and in your chalk font 5 & 6 are very difficult to distinguish. Please please change font or size of font for “wild: x”
Update to my update: I really want to enjoy this, my fave card game. BUT. With new iPhone 14 Plus you can not touch the Menu button. There’s no way to grab it, touch or tap. You just havw to close the app.

### 3/5 — Hopeful!

*2022-11-24, version 1.4*

I really enjoy this game. I’m hoping it’s a new app and they are still working out some kinks. If it’s new, I’ll be patient, worth waiting. If it’s been around a while, then it needs major help. I can’t get the menu screen to come back so I can’t start a new game if I want to. Card graphics need to be better, hard to read the picture cards. Definitely needs more than one deck, two would be fine for three people. 🤞

### 2/5 — 13 Rummy

*2022-10-26, version 1.4*

The game stops, I hit continue and it goes to a different game, happened twice, was supposed to go to wild4’s went to 8’s😤
