### 3/5 — Great app but missing one one rule

*2025-08-17*

Loving the app. Love how it includes diff variations of hands and allows u to rearrange cards by dragging. However, I wish it had the winner starts first rule, and winner can play any hand they want. If they added this in app would be perfect

### 4/5 — Good...

*2024-07-19*

...but the losing sound is annoying. Anyway, the best way to play on a mobile device. Shame it's not available on Google Play for Android device.

Addendum: The swipe controls sometimes close the game instead of moving the cards. A tap to move the cards into play would be great. No more closing the game. Extremely annoying especially when the player is winning.

### 5/5 — Best Chinese poker app

*2023-05-29*

Best Chinese poker app, with free online play it would be perfectgames. Just hope it becomes online too!

### 1/5 — Leaderboard doesnt work

*2022-11-23*

Leaderboard stopped working

### 1/5 — Unplayable at higher levels

*2022-04-12*

The card distribution are not random. When you get above level 20 the computers almost always get better hands than you and the game becomes extremely difficult to win. I only play with computer so this game is now unplayable.

### 4/5 — Nice

*2021-09-25*

Easy going interface. 2&3 player options. Cute simple aesthetics. Customizable rules options.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2021-09-25*

By far the best big 2 app I've tried. Would love to see a setting for how fast the computer players lay down cards. It can be to fast to see what hands were laid down.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2021-08-19, version 2.1.4*

In my opinion, this Big Two app is very well made. It does need an update since the last one was 2 years ago but either way it’s quite nice to be able to practice my Big Two skills

### 3/5 — Fix the glitches!!!

*2021-03-01*

I love Pusoy Dos! Been playing since I was in high school. And every time your game glitches and my hand gets beaten by an inferior hand...or I can’t play my higher/winning hand...I want to SCREAM! Please...I’m BEGGING you! Fix it!!! Also...your algorithms need work! 90% of my cards shouldn’t be “9 and under” 99.99999% of the time! I know an equation for true randomness is impossible. But the stats trying to FORCE me to lose are abhorrent! The visual quality and mechanics are straight though! 👍

### 5/5 — Best app

*2020-07-11, version 2.1.4*

Best Chinese poker app so far!
Only app with three or four player games.

Just hope it becomes online too!
