  • Freeze up

    I love this game! But after a game is over I get a message that something is ' unlocked' and then it freezes on that image. I can't do anything except delete the game.
  • The game freezes

    I am able to play a game as a “guest”, maybe two. I then get a screen that says “new frame unlocked” and the game freezes. I have to turn my phone off and on to be able to play again. I deleted the game and downloaded it a second time thinking that might remedy the problem but that didn’t help. It’s a cute game when it works but it’s not worth the time or annoyance of having to repeatedly shut down my phone.
  • Computer always wins

    I haven’t been able to beat the computer yet. Not much fun in that. Also, the adds cause the game to stall and lock up. I’ve have this happen on two different devices.
  • Great game!

    This game is fun for the entire family and addicting! The app however, when playing the computer, I’ve never seen a computer get so lucky so many times.

    When you’re getting close to the end of a hole just wait! The computer will have a -5 or corresponding card to cancel and they rarely finish above par!
  • AI Very Poorly Written

    I downloaded this game yesterday and played only against the computer, two player. After playing several games where the computer opponent won every time and virtually ALWAYS got the cards needed to beat me, decided to start a new game then quit an restart if the computer opponent beat in a given round. 20 consecutive times I quit and restarted after the first round! The computer opponent received the cards needed to go out in freakish fashion. I made the mistake of upgrading the game for $9.99 per year. I am canceling my subscription and removing the game from my phone.
  • Get rid of tickets!

    Love the game because I can play with family who do not live close. Hate that you can’t get tickets easily. Why do we have coins? I haven’t found a way to use my coins. Why can’t I use my coins to buy tickets? Why do we even need tickets to play? It would be better if it was easier to play people. I’ve never seen a game you need tickets to play online and then not allow you to get tickets!
  • Bugs in app

    As mentioned by others the game takes over for a player. If you don’t win & don’t have enough coins, how can one play for free?? I ended up purchasing the game hoping the “bugs” would be worked out but no. I have all these coins and tickets I won’t even use up. It would be nice to be able to share tickets & coins.
  • Excited to see, but disappointed in monetization method

    Paying $10 a year for no ads is ridiculous. $10 to buy the game with no ads would be fair, but this is just another cash grab by a less than reputable mobile game factory. Really disappointed as Play Nine is one of my favorite card games, and it would have been amazing to have the same experience on mobile. Yet another mobile port tainted by greed. Won’t be paying a dime for this, u less it’s switch to a permanent purchase.
  • The game needs more competitiveness

    To make this game more competitive our family added rules.
    The person turning over the last card down must have the lowest score ultimately for that round or they receive a penalty of 10 points added to their score. Also, once 7 cards are turned up, you must play the card drawn. You either trade or go out. You can only skip if the card you draw is already in your hand facing up and only when 7 cards have been turned up. Please at least make this option. This is one of our family’s favorite games.

    Developer Response

    Thanks for the feedback! That's an interesting way of playing.
  • App freezes SO much

    In real life, this game is so fun! But the app is terrible. It freezes constantly, and the only time I can get anything to happen on here is when I use my finger to just constantly hold the screen down. If I do not do that, the game will not continue and will just be stuck in the frozen position. If this was fixed, it would be a great game. But it’s so frustrating that I just ended up deleting it.
