  • Easy 5 stars 👏🏻

    It’s a super fun game that’s easy for everyone to play but get the material card game to play with 6-8 people P.S. If you play with four people, at hole 8 or 9 the game really slows down and some weird glitches start happening like cards replaying themselves over and over, or one screen will show that someone has an 11 for example but in reality they will have a 5. Overall a great game highly recommend
  • Play 9

    Beware of monthly charges!!!! The game is a rip off. If they charge you anything don’t pay it. You’re playing computer most the time and what they’ve rise on believable! They lead you on long enough to keep you going, but then you’ll lose 20 games. Move on to another game that’s honest. Now they start you’ve been from talking to opponent because they’re not even human.

  • Love this Game

    Would really love to give this game 5 stars but there is a big glitch in the offline version that needs to be addressed. After a final putt is started, on occasion, the game will go directly to the score screen not letting me finish my turn. It gives me a score, sometimes I win the round sometimes I don’t but I do not get to actually finish the round by myself. At first I thought I was missing something as the screen changes so fast and there is no option to view the last page but started to carefully paying attention and sure enough it happens quite often, once I even had two cards uncovered that were not turned over before the game went to the score screen. Other that that, this is a great game. I might add I usually play offline with 2 players as a want to just play a quick game. I don’t agree with the complaints of this being rigged to give the computer an unfair advantage, actually this seems to be the best “random” play game I’ve ever played. I seem to win/lose about the same as when playing the actual game. The ads don’t aren’t any worse than other games, probably better as most are very short and unobtrusive. I haven’t run into any of those really irritating ad that hide the X or makes you chase it only to get another ad once you hit it! If my issue is ever fixed or even the option is given to go back to look at the last game screen before going to the next round I will be more than happy to give this app 5 STARS!
  • Small tweaks would make this 5 stars

    Things that would greatly improve the game:
    -most importantly: the cards aren’t actually random. Feels like about 80% of my flips are great cards if I’ve decided to swap a face down. Or if you draw a random card and discard it, your flip ends up WAY more likely to be whatever you just discarded. There’s no way it’s actually random and programmed statistically correctly

    -designate who is CPU in multiplayer

    -bring back chat but give people the option to turn it off or organize a report button

    -randomize which player starts. In multiplayer, the person who organized always has an advantage because they’re most likely to follow a bot in turn order and the bots always give good cards away

    -teach the bots defense, not just (mediocre) offense

    -some visual and graphic updates would be nice. Feels like a much older game than it actually is

    -give people levels based on wins

    -different versions/rules would be fun.

    I love this game and it just needs a few things to change for a solid 5 stars, primarily the probability

    Hey! Thanks for the ideas. Can you send us an email with your ideas? We'd love to discuss them.
  • Unfair bots

    I have played the game for months and can usually outwit the computer in a one on one game. In the last few days the computer has gotten almost every card it needs and gets 1-3 minus five cards in most hands. There are supposed to be only 4 minus 5 cards in the deck so getting so many makes no sense. Fix this or I will delete the game and stick with the physical play 9 card game! It has been months since I wrote the above and the computer still gets 1-3 minus 5’s in most hands. Do you take the reviews seriously or do you sit around and laugh at us. I think it is about time to delete and use the cards, at least I am not dependent on the mental midgets that programmed this game to frustrate players!

    Hello Aced3x! Thank you for your feedback. We are working on fixing these issues. Our next build release will be even better!
  • Good but could be way better

    I love the in person version of this game and the app is fun if playing against friends. Question/Suggestions:

    What is the point of coins? Nothing can be done with them if you have the vip subscription. I’m coin rich with nothing to do with them lol
    Also there should be different levels based on % of wins. There should be an ability to add friends, so if they are online you could see that and when you are playing with friends you should have the ability to talk to each other instead of just chat. Would make it more interactive.
    Just some thoughts on making the gameplay better but otherwise really like it!

    Developer Response

    Thank you for the suggestions! We are actually working on many of those!
  • UPDATED review

    UPDATED: Not long after I left my first review (complaint) of all the long ads you had to sit through after every hole, there was an update to the game and now you can play several holes with no ads at all, and there is more variety to the ads when they do play - some short, some long and thankfully nothing inappropriate. Much better playing experience! Thank you! And as another reviewer suggested, if it's a long ad, it's quicker to completely close out the game and reopen it and resume play than wait. ************************* First review: This 30 second Fishdom ad is killing me. After every. single. hole.??? Ridiculous. You're driving people away.

    Thanks for the review! Glad you're loving the game more and more.
  • One sided. Servers no working correctly

    Feels like the game is one sided allowing someone to get much better cards and draws than the other. Feels like the cards that you get that you have to flip a replace are only generated as you flip them + not random. Now I’m here to say that I’m addicted to playing because I do enjoy the game. Just unfortunate that sometimes you go on a winning streak and get all the good cards or you go on annoying losing streak and get wrecked no matter what you do. There’s no in the middle nothing seems random.
    Also the servers are horrible right now I’m getting kicked off every game I join just about right now
  • Favorite card game

    This is hands down the best card game. We will play a slightly different version with real cards at family gatherings. Great for kids to learn strategy and simple math. Only thing I would to see changed is this…if I win, playing multiplayer or with friends, I get to keep my ticket. All you won is half of what a ticket cost. The winnings add up (if you constantly win), but you can spend them quickly if you want to keep playing.

    Developer Response

    Thanks for the great feedback! We are implementing some great new things that will make it easier to play and more fun to win. And if you shoot me an email, I'll send some coins/tickets your way for such great feedback!
  • Ad suggestions

    Fun little game - except the Fishdom ads. Some suggestions:
    For players, the Fishdom ad lasts at least 30 seconds. Save time by closing the game and re-launching, then click continue.
    For the app developers, please do two things. First, if the game is silenced, the ads should also be silenced. Don’t allow ads to use sound when the game is muted. Second, please put the skip video / close / big X on every ad by at least the 5 second mark.
    For advertisers, 5 second ads without sound are respectful and less likely to alienate your audience.
