Losing

I hope you like losing . I’ve played this game for a couple of weeks ( been playing for 50 years ) and this games algorithm stinks. I can’t get a hand full of Trump but the computor does it almost ever hand . It out bids me and leaves me with no cards of any use. I probably win 1 in 40 games. I play to relax, but only get upset wanting the other hand

Great Game

I started to play this as I was learning in person and it's a huge supplement to learning. Now I play for fun, but there are some improvements that would make this game a lot better.
The first would be that you should be able to let your hand play out if it's all junk cards. If I'm not going to make any points, I shouldn't have to play out the hand. If simulating a hand of my own like a computer player was an option, it'd keep me around longer.
The scoring visual is great, but it'd be awesome to know what the value and suit of the bid is and which player got the bid.
Other than that, this is a wonderful app and such a great low pressure game to play at work or on the phone.

Disappointed

I love the game of 45's. Been playing Merrimack Valley style for 35 years. While this game scratches the itch, it leaves much to be decided. The 5 comes up on over 90% of the deals. Jack almost as much. And I've never seen as many A❤️ in any card game as I see in this one. The only version of this somewhat worth playing is cutthroat. There is no randomness to the cards. 4 player or Partner mode logic is completely broken. CPU partner outbidding you because they have a 5 and nothing else. No third man high. Not that I can build a better game. But then again I'm not an app builder.

Great game

Love playing this game this is the only 45’s game people should consider. Only thing I wish was that you could play more than 1v1 online unless you can and I’m mistaking
