  • Unrealistic game compared to the real thing

    I don’t like how you deck stack in your favour and how you lead with cards that are going to score you points every time

    Developer Response

    Hi, we have covered in detail in the game FAQ how the game is fair and honest in every respect and is absolutely never stacking the deck or anything else like that. We have provided multiple audits of the system as well as even offered anyone the chance to view the game code itself if you want. If you can think of anything else you want to see to help show the game is fair, please feel free to email us at support@FullerSystems.com
  • Great game but...

    There needs to be a way to boot a player who has exceeded their time limit and been inactive for more than a few minutes. It’s too easy for people to pad their stats in multiplayer by joining a game and then just not doing anything forcing you to either wait a really long time or forfeit the game. That’s not fair that you should have to forfeit if they’re deliberately not playing. And you can’t rate them if you forfeit so you only see good ratings because of it. Tonight I had a guy pull this and I wanted to see how long it would take. It tried disconnecting him after 20 minutes but he just rejoined and started over. I finally proved more stubborn than him after another 5 minutes, but I have the time to do that right now. Most people don’t.

    Edit (response to developer response): I absolutely have a time limit set. I set the limit for 15 seconds. It does not boot them but just gives a message that the player has exceeded their time limit. But it doesn’t end the game or do anything but give me a guide to rate them as slow/distracted. The example I gave was a multiplayer game with a 15 second time limit and it was still 25 minutes of nothing.

    Hi, are you playing online games without a time limit set for the game? If there is not a time limit set, then it will not automatically disconnect someone for not playing. However, if there is a time limit set, the system will absolutely disconnect a player who fails to play within the time limit. If you have any other questions, you can always email us at support@FullerSystems.com
  • Game is NOT rigged

    Ok first off this games gets 4 stars because it’s not saving my stats for how epically I beat the computer. I’m a very experienced cribbage player(time in the Navy) and on Brutal level I am pretty much unbeaten by the computer. I don’t do what the “hint” suggests about half the time and I peg pretty consistently. It feels like I’m playing against a real person except that I’m better. If you find yourself losing a lot maybe re think strategy’s, keep cards to help peg more, sacrifice obvious points for more. Don’t blame the programming.

    Again 4/5 because it won’t save my data for some reason.

  • Unrealistic score odds

    I agree with Glickster49's review but will also add that the unrealistic hands happen even in multiplayer mode.
    I've studied the odds (published by mathematicians) of scores in the playing hand and in the crib and the app consistently contradicts what professionals have taken the time to calculate mathematically.
    I also noticed in single player mode, the app strategically tends to catch up toward the end of the game and when it's the player's crib so even if you have a hand that puts you out, you don't get to count first.
    Being dealt a playing hand and/or crib with 0 score is not likely. Just about every hand will score at least 2 but not with this app.
    I also don't care for the "Quit" option in multiplayer. If a player quits, they lose rank but some players force a quit by setting their game to unlimited time then not playing at all.
    My friends and I play with odds in mind at all times so that gaining a 20 point lead is considered a win no matter where on the board we are. Because the odds of a come back from such a deficit is unlikely and to be honest, this game is only fun when it's close. A one sided game is pointless.

  • Inappropriate content

    Twice in the last 2 days my cribbage game has had a pop up ad with explicit adult content. I have deleted my game because of it!

  • Difficulty levels are awful

    The designer obviously has never played this game. Just because you choose a higher difficulty level doesn’t mean the computer should get 5 hands on 20+ points in a game, yet it happens nearly every time. There’s no point in playing those games. No matter what you throw in the crib, the computer matches up for 10+ points on average. Meanwhile, you get 6. Bad game. I don’t care how good of a player you are, this doesn’t happen in real hands if cribbage, too many possibilities to happen that regular.

  • Don’t listen to the whiners!

    You will read many reviews on here that say the AI cheats and gives the computer opponent better cards than the player. The truth is all of those reviewers are not as good of cribbage players as they think they are. Even in brutal mode the cards are totally random for both the player and the computer AI.

    The computer AI in brutal mode is tough but beatable. I consider myself a good but not great cribbage player and in well over 1,000 games I beat the brutal AI opponent about 55 percent of the time.

    If you like cribbage and want to play against a challenging opponent, this is the game for you. An easy 5 star review.

  • Great

    Worthy opponent in brutal mode.
  • Very good implementation & great AI

    Really excellent version of the game with a computer player which gives a good competitive game. Haven't found a computer version of cribbage that's this good ever before. EVER! And I've been looking for quite a while.

    In future versions I would like the option to see all hands on the table as they are revealed because it helps to see who had what and I'd also like the game to reveal final hands at the end of the game even if they are not scored. EDITED: I first rated this in 2013 & this is written in 2019 and I’m still loving it. And Cribbage Pro listened and final hands and crib are now visible! Thanks Cribbage Pro team!
