I would like to give this app 5 stars but my friend and I play often and notice that the robots regularly get more points and play more hands. We frequently go a whole session hardly bidding. However I found that you can chose what type of hands you are dealt and that has made it great,so I give it 4 stars
When playing random deals do not expect to get points!!!
Playing Radom deals Last night I had a one point hand and many 6,7,8 ,4 point hands
Another two evenings , here are my actual points
4, 6,6,8,7,6,5,4,18( partner had 3) 10,6. E/W played nearly every hand (and usually underbid. )Show lessmarthachancy
Mostly an excellent game
I love the format and ability to tap once on s bid to see what it means before choosing it. Great way to learn the meaning of the bid. Fun to play friends or practice with a friend. Tournaments provide excellent learning opportunity since you can compare your bidding and playing to the best in the group. Only draw back is the occasional stall when playing a hand which can really cause problems if you can’t remember what’s been played.Show lessGiveMeSomethingICanUse
No Random Deals
One of the most consistantly frustrating games I've played. You expect the finesses to work 50% of the time. I've kept track for about a month now and they work about 2% of the time. K - J on the board? Don't worry.... you can count on the player to your right holding the A - Q. Leading to a K? Almost 100% of the time the A will be behind the K. I saw in one of the reviews that the developers claim it's 50%. That's just plain Bravo Siera. I have hands left with my credit, but I'm deleting the app and will look elsewhere. Forgot to mention, if you're playing in a tournament, don't count on your partner having the same skill level as yourself. You will just be scratching your head alot. I am a developer and I really don't like giving bad reviews. I can appreciate the level of coding excelence that went into creating this app. Why the developers chose to make it so darn frustrating for users is beyond my comprehension.Show lessEddieHask
Conventions annoying
I am a beginner to intermediate bridge player and I find the conventions a pain in the neck I did write a comment to Phone Bridge and let them know that we should be able to change somebody some of the conventions they will not let us do this I never know when the landing at the Druery some reason the conventions come up I think there should be an option to be able to decide which conventions you want to play
I agree with the last review that I read that the odds are not in favor of finances etc. the probability is not logical
So if we should be written so that a player should be able to make the decisions that they want to make regarding which conventions they play in their bidding systemsShow lessLove flow pipe
Fun Bridge is fun!
I have paid the unlimited play for several years. I also bought improving your lead- not the name, but it showed me the errors in my leading,et, I believe that my bridge has changed for the better. However, playing robots even your partner is difficult, since a human partner can be consulted later and bids discussed. All in all I love Fun Bridge. Also, please explain why lead is different if bidding is the same.??Show lessJanetmoon
Used to be good, now it’s terrible!
Bids and explanations are bizarre and unreliable. Often a weak 2 bid will state at least 6 of the WRONG suit. For example bidder opens 2 diamonds, bid explanation is that the bidder has 6 diamonds but he actually has 6 spades. This has happened multiple times. You can report the deal but nothing is done nor do they respond to you. Bids NT with 2 worthless doubletons. Sometimes the trick count is incorrect. Report this with screen shots that prove the trick count is wrong, they reply with the generic “can’t replicate the issue” as if you did something wrong. The leads often make no sense based on the bidding and the leaders holding. All this for 100USD a year. Avoid this site! Don’t waste your money.Show lessconmenace

Please note that our engine is in most the cases highly reliable. Some of the best players in the world play happily on funbridge!Fun Bridge
I enjoy very much playing this game. My frustration comes when the game is scored. I fail to understand your scoring system. Why does a player who is set (doesn’t make their bid) score higher than one who makes their bid or more tricks than they bid? This is very frustrating when you are trying to bring up your score to go to the next level.
It seems as though you are being deliberately sabotaged to prevent you getting the score you need.Show lessDelta Cotton
Too Random
Seems like the programmers have some form of random statistical rules algorithm when bidding and playing. Your partner should follow your system (conventions) when bidding and playing. Opponents should be consistent as well. Very annoying when you compare yourself against others and the sequence is different. Also North is erratic in many cases - should recognize a sign off bid when presented.
Other than the above, good value for the money.Show lessSkop Skit
Reliability
When playing the free version the program ran smoothly. I paid for a year’s membership yesterday. I love the game and this is a challenging, helpful game. BUT, I can no longer access it. I have tried repeatedly. I have deleted and reloaded. I have attempted to contact the developers following their directions. The page keeps saying there is a page error and it isn’t sent. I am hoping their server is having a problem and tomorrow will be a better day. Right now I wish I had stayed with the free version.Show lessJean 444
They should call this "No fun bridge"
The app is ruined because deals are not random. The key finesse is always off, trumps don't break, etc. If you have AQ the King is offside 99% of the time. OK that is an exaggeration, since it is actually offside 100% of the time. Play for the stiff King, that at least works some of the time. And I am getting really tired of the defense coming up with the magic singleton opposite an Ace to beat otherwise good contracts. The app also cheats - when you defend the declarer will not take a losing finesse when it is logical to do so, and plays a suit the wrong way instead, except as the cards lie it works. I have played way, way too much real bridge, and know this is NOT random probability. Good contracts that make most of the time don't make here because the normal laws of probability don't apply. And there you go, you just wasted money to play a lousy hand with bad breaks. Why does No Fun Bridge go out of their way to do this to you??? Don't say you weren't warned. Update: has improved somewhat but still not random.Show lessdelematz
