  • Partner(North) doesn’t know how to play nil games

    1. N bids nil holding 10, 9, 8, 7 of Spades. Another game, after I had bid 3, my so-called partner bid nil with K, 3 of hearts and K, J, 10, 9 of Clubs! How is anyone supposed to cover that? And in that game we had been more than 100 points ahead..but we lost the game. If the bot had just bid 1, we would’ve won! The opponents NEVER bid that stupidly! 2. West bids nil. I‘ve led the A, K of a 5 card suit and am still holding the Q and 2 small cards. N has discarded on my K. I then play my lowest heart. West plays the Jack! Yeah, I think, their nil is broken! Wrong—North , my alleged partner, trumps the trick! 3. Partner often overbids…2, 3, 4 games in a row!
    Whoever programmed this AI doesn’t know how to play Spades! Incidents like this happen often!

  • Ok but not too bright

    The Game makes mistakes that are quite stupid: tops partner’s K with the Ace when it has another card in suit, does not trump it’s partner’s lead when there are many higher in suit cards yet to be played, really dumb about nil bids in many respects. The game has no contextual sense at all. Worst aspect is “optimistic bidding”. North, the AI, fails its bid 35% of the time: totally unacceptable. Every once in a while the scoring goes nuts: charges for 40 failed nil bids in one hand!!! Often more worried about the bag count that setting the opponents. Still, fun most of the time.

  • Annoying background music

    In the last few months some annoying background music plays & can’t be silenced in the settings. This is a great time killing game but I can’t listen to other things while I play because of the music that WONT stop!!!

  • Ai is terrible had to delete

    Too many bad plays by ai partner had to delete
  • Great Spades Game

    One problem: The automated bidders collude against you. My game is skewed so that I have difficulty receiving Spades.
  • Spade time

    This app allows forgivenesses and has made me a smarter player!
  • Don't be fooled by all those 5 star reviews.

    It's not terrible, but it's not really Spades either.
    Playing four as singles, the developers have skewed the deals so you have voids and singletons much more frequently than in normal play.
    During YOUR nil bids, the others will always lead their lowest cards, but during any one of THEIRS, they pay no attention at all and routinely lead their highest., not caring how many bags they take.
    You can do better.

  • Don’t Waste your time with this game.

    I’ve been playing Spades for 40 years on and off line. These are the most stupid robots to play with. They go Neil with a jack, 10,9 and 8 of spades all the time and it’s only 3 cards that can be covered. Or when you go to Neal they don’t cover you. Try a different speed game don’t waste your time with this. They do it all the time my partner and the other team. I won’t need all the other day and my partner would not use a spade and she had a king in Ace of fades
