### 1/5 — Unable to make the moves stick

*2025-09-30*

When attempting to play a  card, system keeps rejecting the move. After many attempts, system accepts the card and play resumes. Melds cannot be completed for same reason

**Developer response:** Is the drop site highlighted (indicates that you can drop the card and it will be accepted)? The top left corner of the card must be within the drop site. Run the demo to see examples.

### 5/5 — Great game

*2025-04-09*

Love it

### 1/5 — Frequent crashing

*2023-02-16*

Used to be a great game but has recently started crashing, usually when I’m winning, so I’ve changed to another version which isn’t as good but more reliable.

### 5/5 — Excellent app

*2022-02-12*

Was at first put off by some less than complimentary reviews but as I was new to Bezique and wanted to learn, went ahead and bought the app. One of the best investments I have made. Don’t understand the quibbles made by some. Once you have mastered the light-fingered, deft pick up and drop off required when moving individual cards, the game is very enjoyable and, as far as I can tell, follows all the rules. The game even tells you when to put down a meld from your own hand that you might have overlooked. Highly recommended.

### 2/5 — Poor

*2022-02-02*

The functionality is dire.

**Developer response:** Can you give an example? I might be able to make an improvement.

### 2/5 — Disappointing

*2021-12-21*

I love Bezique & have played it since I was a child. I wouldn’t say I’m great but I am ok certainly better than some. In all my years I have never seen as many double Beziques as this game. It is definitely skewed towards the computer winning almost every time! Even though I do not have a ‘real’ person to play against I am dumping this game. I’d rather not play at all than play against this game!

**Developer response:** There is no skewing the cards in favor of the computer player. The computer does not peek or know what cards are coming up or what cards you are holding (except of course for the cards that you have melded).

### 1/5 — Bezique

*2021-07-02*

I know how to play bezique but I can’t understand how to play this so no good for me.

**Developer response:** Can you give more detail? Did you read the help? To play a card from your hand, drag the chosen card from your hand into the discard pile outline or into the card played by the opponent. To draw a card, drag the top card of the stock pile into your hand if you want to keep it or into the discard area if you want to discard it.

### 2/5 — Missing top turned up card

*2021-03-22*

I’m an avid bezique player and this is a good computer version (first I have seen). However it fails in the aspect that you are meant to play each trick for a turned up card (not one you can’t see). If this was fixed would be 5*

**Developer response:** I am not sure what you mean. Can you explain in more detail?

### 1/5 — Bug Fixes

*2021-01-04*

Cannot get the first card to play or stay in place, bugs from three years ago have not been fixed.  So, have not been able to even start a game, poor.

**Developer response:** Make sure that the upper left corner of the card that you want to discard is within the discard box (if you are discarding first) or is within the card that your opponent discarded (if you are discarding second). The discard box (or opponent discard) will be highlighted when you can drop your card.

### 2/5 — Bezique

*2020-02-07*

I like this game because I grow up playing it.  But there is a major flaw in its addition.  Somehow the computer cheats when it put down jack of diamond and queen of spade.  It will go from 10 points to 500 points.  Please fit it

**Developer response:** The 500 points is for double bezique (QS JD put down when QS JD already melded, or two QS JD melded at once). If this is not the case, then indeed it is an error. Do you remember the situation? If so, let me know and I will fix it.
