### 4/5 — Love this game but...

*2019-07-24*

The multiplayer feature is pathetic.  I wish this could be remedied.  Great game poor multiplayer functionality.  Please fix.

### 4/5 — 9 holes

*2013-07-11*

Great app... Except I've had trouble with Internet multi player, having trouble connecting and when you do get connected you get booted off before the game is finished

### 4/5 — Love the game

*2012-11-17*

Great game.  Would love to see it with more features and as a universal app for iPad - looks great on my 4S, not so great on the mini.

### 1/5 — New layout is terrible

*2026-03-11*

Old layout showed all 4 hands…. New layout only shows 3 hands

It ruined the game

**Developer response:** Thanks for the honest feedback!  The game hadn’t been updated in a long time and we were at risk of it not working with new iOS updates so we redesigned it.  We’ve heard yours and others’ feedback and implemented a landscape mode now that looks and feels like the original.  Update the app and give it a try!  Small note: you can scroll the hands at the top of the screen in portrait mode to see all the hands.   Give it a shot and update/send a new review if you have any more feedback!

### 1/5 — Update

*2026-03-10*

Do not like the updated version. Go back to the way it was before and add an undo button.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback! We hear you — we actually just brought back landscape mode in today's update. We'd love for you to give it another try and keep sending feedback.  How about a shake-to-undo feature similar to other iPhone apps, that’s a great item for a future release. Thanks for the feedback and for sticking with us!

### 1/5 — Crashing

*2021-01-11, version 2.1*

It is ridiculous to charge people for an app that continually crashes! Great game but that sucks

### 1/5 — Game shuts down to many times

*2020-05-18*

Shuts down and freezes in the middle of the game. So annoying!! Needs to be fixed!

### 1/5 — Game Center

*2017-02-12*

How do we connect now???

### 2/5 — New format

*2026-03-07*

This has always been my go to game - do not like the new format. Playing area is too small. Cannot see the numbers on my phone. Can I revert back to the old version?

**Developer response:** Hi there!  Thank you for the feedback!  It has been a lot of years since our last update on 9 holes so we were in need of an update and complete re-write of the game.  We have gotten the feedback that the portrait mode of game play was a desired feature so our re-write focused on that.  But thank you for sending your thoughts about the old landscape layout!  Over the next couple of weeks we I’ll try to implement a landscape layout reminiscent of the original.  Stay tuned!

*Update* - we have added support for landscape playing that goes back to who the game used to look and feel.  The latest update was approved tonight and is pushing out there now!  Let me know how you like the update and send any further feedback you might have.

### 2/5 — Great game but frustrating as major glitches

*2020-05-11, version 2.1*

We have a great time playing this game in multiplayer mode but can rarely get the rough a game without being kicked out which is frustrating. App needs updating.

### 2/5 — Love game when not froze

*2020-04-22, version 2.1*

Game freezes 😕

### 3/5 — Really Fun Game, But......

*2020-01-31*

As previously mentioned, great single player mode, but multiplayer is a dismal failure. I’ve yet to be able to complete a single round of Multiplayer.  Having tried multiple times, I’ve pretty much given up and settled on playing single player mode.

### 3/5 — iPad compatible????

*2016-03-17*

Love the game but it won't let me download it on my iPad. The description says its compatible.......👎🏻

### 5/5 — Card game

*2018-01-05*

I love this card game. We have played this card game as a family for many years. It is fun to have a version of it on my iPad. Thank you, please keep updating it for the newer iPads.

### 5/5 — My favorite game!

*2014-08-10*

Love it!

### 5/5 — Fun game but...

*2013-07-17*

The game is a lot of fun but the multiplayer function doesn't work very well at all.   I have yet to complete a game without having the connection dropped,  it's also hard to get connected to begin with. You have to try several times before the connection works and when finally connected it will drop you after a few holes are played,  Fix the multi player function PLEASE!!!!!!

### 5/5 — Great!

*2012-12-04*

Great game! Lots of strategy, plays well on iPad! Needs online multiplayer!

### 5/5 — Addictive and downright fun

*2012-08-31, version 1.1*

Very few iOs game developers have had the chance to have me comment on their apps. But this app has rightfully  won me over and has done so for Atleast 6 months. 

The game is simple, but if you have a competitive nature such as I, you'll keep on playing, over and over again. 

Here's an idea developer, allow us to play against other players as opposed to only allowing us to play against the CPU. 

Great job, I look forward to a multi-player version soon :)

### 5/5 — Fun

*2012-02-17*

This card game takes just a few minutes to figure out, then ends up being a heck of a lot of fun.

Nicely done card graphics, with smooth animations.

I had never heard of or seen a card game like this, and I am very happy to have given it a try.

The random "golf course sounds", like bird noises, are a welcome addition and make the golf theme more enjoyable. It would be nice to have an option to turn these sounds off, while leaving the card play sound effects on.

### 5/5 — A great game combining chance and "strokes" on a nine hole golf  "course"

*2012-01-27*

I found the game lots of fun and easy to play!  Chance comes into play as you turn over unknown cards in an attempt to get the lowest score against your opponent (s) who is (are) trying to do the same thing.. It's possible to have up to 4 players to compete against (your friends or the computer).  Positively  addictive and hard to put down :-)  I love it!!!!

### 5/5 — 9 holes

*2012-01-26*

Excellent game!

### 4/5 — Turn off

*2021-02-07*

After I hit the quit button ... nothing happens game remains on my screen . 3 times I had to shut down my phone to exit game . Fix plz

### 4/5 — Improvement suggestions

*2020-03-28, version 2.1*

Good but couple things: don’t cover up scores with whose turn is.  Switch player to right side of screen instead of left.  It should save game in progress if you log out. Slow down the robot so I can see the move it’s making. Otherwise fun.
