  • Nice game but very one way or the other

    In general the ai plays for lowest deadwood and discards strictly defensive. So once you know that the game becomes completely dependent on the deal and draw. It seems like either the ai or the player runs away with the game 90% of the time. The lack of close games seems very un-random. I have also noticed that occasionally the player does not lay off cards that it clearly should. It is hard to catch because the animation is fast but if you watch you can see it.

    Update: Changed to 2 stars. Once I got into the gold tiers the game was no fun. The ai opponent didn’t get better the deals are just stacked against the player.

  • Addicted

    Instantly!!!!
  • Avatars

    Needs all the avatar options. Computer gets all the good choices. Just my only issue with this fun game
  • Fixed

    I like playing but when I got to the platinum level it becomes impossible to win. The only way that can be accomplished is by manipulating the deck.
  • Surprisingly Good

    I literally downloaded it during the Christmas holidays as I was off and wanted to relax.

    The first time I’ve played it and followed the instructions now I have just been given the advanced reward and undercutter titles many times.

    This is because I understand the game and have been strategically playing and beating the competitors.

    I doubt I’ll stop playing anytime soon. Trying to get the misses in to it as she’s seeing I’m fully engaged and not listening as much lol

  • This can easily be your go-to time-waster game.

    Rules are easy to learn. I’ve never played Gin Rummy before, but after a few minutes, you’ll get the hang of it.

    Its a good luck/intuition based game and its fun to see big swings that can happen in any round.

    It could improve by having local/online multiplayer however. Also, it’d be nice to get more themes than the standard solid colors.

  • Good … but

    Sometimes doesn’t show the opponent’s hand when they win…
  • Fun version

    Only criticism is lack of network/online play against friends
  • I don’t see the cheating, but…

    It’s an OK game. I don’t see the cheating people claim. Yes, the computer gets some quick knocks from time to time, but so do I. I’ve been playing a while and am at Master I level. The computer plays a tight, defensive strategy that can be tough to beat until you learn how (and *when*) to beat it, but it can be done once you learn how. (People claiming to never get the cards they need may be speculating too much or not know how to beat this strategy. I’m winning more than losing at my current level, and I’m not a card player. Gin Rummy and Euchre are the only games I don’t embarrass myself playing.)

    My biggest complaints are the boring strategy employed by the AI (but I’m not a programmer, and that *may* be the only strategy that an engine can use to play at a high level?) and the animations that cut too early on occasion (and take too long when the do go). Also, the computer assumes the melds you want to make and won’t readjust the melds when you select a discard that breaks a meld it thinks you should. This can be confusing and is critical in late game decisions. (It also is “taking advice from the opponent”, which is never a good strategy.)

    Still a relatively decent game.

  • Questionable

    Just downloaded this today. I am pretty good at gin; good enough that some people won’t play with me because I win a lot.

    The first few games were great, but then didn’t matter what I did I couldn’t win. Cheating? I’m not sure about that. But the losing streak seemed very unreasonable and completely ruined the fun. Not sure what is up with this game.
