Great App
You really get what you ask for. The layout is nice, the automation makes for easy to play games, and even the game how-tos are put in an easily understandable way. If I could change anything, I would love to be able to play versus bots in offline mode but really the app is perfect as is.Semi-aquatic mammal
Consequences for disconnecting to avoid loss?
I have now dropped my review from 4-star to 2-star based on Bicycle’s clear unwillingness to punish cheating in this app.
Great app, however multiple ranked players have disconnected immediately upon realizing they are about to lose to me, thereby avoiding lost ranking points (and keeping me from moving up legitimately). No way this should be allowed! That player should “default” in that case and be unable to avoid the loss. Plain and simple sportsmanship, very frustrating. Stand up for fairness, Bicycle!!! Your entire business model is based upon games in which the mere suggestion of cheating used to be grounds for a duel!Show lessAGameFan121
Nice design. But a bit small for iPhone
The graphics are a bit hard to see on the iPhone. I’m sure it displays well on an iPad. They need to make the writing a bit bigger so it’s easier to see. But the graphics move smoothly and the whole App looks and works nicely. It’s also a shame that more people aren’t playing it because it hard to come by real people playing; waiting for somebody to sign in and play is tedious.Show lessHe ain't THAT good
Almost Great
The only really annoying thing is constantly having to login AND it doesn’t even use passwords from my phone. Lots of times I start to play and when it goes to the login screen I just close it and use a different app.JML63
Great App - Some Suggestions
Very great app for card games! Is it possible to change settings on how to order cards in Gin Rummy or be able to change how your partner plays in Spades when doing a local game against bots? My bot partner in Spades doesn’t make sense for the logic of the game. As an example, I’ll lay an Ace on the first play and my partner lays a trump. Another common example is my partner leads low trump and bleeds out any chance you have of taking a trick with low trump when you have minimal off suit cards.
Update down to 2 stars: App keeps crashing and doesn’t allow me to finish playing any of the games. It is getting very frustrating to play on this app when it crashes at the pace it does.Show lesstheKB#1
Single player spades
I love the ad free aspect of this game. The only thing stopping me from declaring this the best game among all the games on the App Store. Is there is no option to play spades without a partner. My partner will trump my card a lot of times(which is not how partner spades is played) and thus causing us to get set. Sometimes and it’s only some of the time they will throw off. I throw off everytime unless I don’t have a choice,but my bot partner does not. I don’t like the fact that as soon a spades are broken. One of the bot launches into throwing spades a the lead card. I feel like that shouldn’t happen until some of the other suits are running out. As soon as spades are broken. They are throwing all spades. These are my only complaints. Please fix these things and I’ll tell everyone I know to install this game. I love the No ad’sShow lessDanger Mann
Love-Hate Relationship
I love playing gin… And this app is fantastic! The only part that I really do not like about this app… Is that when you are playing an opponent, they can quit a game when they are losing… Which keeps their ranking. I wish the app would penalize a player by taking away points when they quit mid game. I have been on the winning side multiple games… Only to have the other player sign out before the scoring… And then I don’t get my points for winning…. And they don’t lose any of their points…. And they keep their ranking. 👎🏼Show lessMichelg84
Euchre??? “Soon” isnt soon
I downloaded this game to see how the professionals put together a card app. 1. I thought there would be more games other than the 3 you have. They work like any other decent card game app. 2. The thing that gets me is, people (like myself) DO read the reviews others place on the apps. The fact that the 4th game, Euchre, reads coming soon, and it was just forgotten for a long long period of time (especially to the ones dedicated to your app) tells me how the creators of the app operate. The players can basically pound sand. You get it when you get it. Sorry, I’m tapping out.Show lessAhleahh
Ok but
I like the card games and since I am old school (grew up with Intellivision), I prefer to play bots vs real people.
My main gripe is how often I get logged out of the game. I even made an account so I can easily track my wins but on the iphone there isn't even a way to save my login credentials. So I created an account for nothing. ☹️Show lessMs Mama 40
Rankings
Hello. Good app but many players disconnect when they are losing to avoid losing a ranking slot. It would be helpful to have a penalty for forfeited games, and simply, a no-score change for service interruptions that cause a game to end. Players may find a work around like turning to airplane mode or something to cause an interruption to service and seems like a normal disconnect but some may play through to avoid a penalty or no-score change. Hope you can help. Right now some of those rankings don’t reflect all the losses those leaders have disconnected from to keep that spot.Show lessjohnsonvilleSausage
