Fun, but sometimes annoying

Very fun game, gameplay has good pace and controls are very simple. I wish there was a better way to sort dominos that wasn’t just dragging them around, and sometimes they get “stuck” under the bottom bar of the iPhone screen where you would normally swipe up to return to home. This is very annoying. Also very challenging, you don’t win often but it’s rewarding when you do. Overall a good game with some minor inconveniences.

Donna

I love the game but it is depressing because I seldom win. I win about every 10 or 12 times. That’s depressing. Another complaint, There is an ad for a missing girl stuck on the page and I cannot play the game, or get out of it. Also don’t like the sexually incinuating adds for the casinos I love the ga,e but, Now this game is stopping, going blank. And it takes hours before I can play it again. This game keeps freezing, and I get just a white screen. This is getting more frequent. And is frustrating. As of to day it has been locked two two days now. Please fix it.

Mexican Train

We play Mexican Train every Tuesday night at church and practicing on my phone helps me to play well each week. I will soon be 76 years old and this game keeps my mind sharp and makes for an enjoyable game for grandchildren to play. Our granddaughter began playing when she was eight and loves playing this nonviolent game on my phone.

Programmer- just admit the game is fixed!

This program is written to decrease the players odds of winning. For example;
1)The tiles drawn are not random; 2)When there is no play, you have to draw several tiles before you get a player whereas the computer will pick a players within one or two tiles max; 3)There is a computer player programmed to win from the start and will go out 5-9 rounds in that game.
It would be refreshing to hear from the maker of the game that the odds are stacked against a human player by design. I do not think they will admit it.

Game is Fixed

I hate when I pay for a game to find out that it is fixed.

Je trouve que je suis très souvent perdante ,toujours la dernière .

Stopped working

I’ve been playing this game for months and love it. The app updated a day ago and will no longer open on my iPad. I’ve tried turning my device off and on, deleting the app and reinstalling it, but still won’t open. Very frustrating. Is it possible to go back to the previous version? UPDATE: Sent this message and developer responded that an update to support iOS12 was pending. Must have been approved as it works today. Thanks! Love this game even though I usually lose.

Response from developer

Sorry for the inconvenience. The app crashes for iOS 12 or earlier users. I submitted an update to fix it. I’m waiting for Apple to approve it. I’m hoping it will be available soon.

You might win one in one hundred

If you enjoy being cheated by bots, you will love this game. It is so fitting that the bots have robbers names. You will almost always have to draw before they do. When a double is played, and they have to draw, their score never goes up on the first round, but yours will. The player above you, Jessie James, is able to block your move 99 out of 100 times…especially if you could win the round. I love playing dominoes with real people and win my share of the time. This game is not fun!!! If you play to relax, find a game that has real people, not bots.

Can get frustrating

Basically it’s fun but, the computer always has the advantage. I’ve noticed that on some plays when the other players should have to draw a tile, their total tile count does not go up. The computer will not let you continue until you draw a tile so your total tile count always goes up. Other times, when the other computer players draw a tile it is exactly the tile needed. It’s been my experience that playing with real plays this does happen, but not as frequently. All in all, it’s still a fun game and great for practicing your strategy.

One player always wins

I have played this game over 5 years and while it has helped my playing in a real game, it can be frustrating. One game I played last night had one player winning all but 2 hands in the game and got a total of 23 points. The other 3 players each had between 500 and 800 points. Very unrealistic.
