A true game changer. The use of chips to keep score is genius! LOVE it! The graphics are unlike any other domino app. Glad these guys went the extra mile and didn’t settle! Can’t wait to see what these guys plan to do with this App! ### 5/5 — Amazing Game!!! *2021-03-26, version 1.0* Fun domino based game!! ### 5/5 — Incredible game!! *2021-03-26, version 1.0* I absolutely love playing this game!! Wow!! ### 4/5 — Exemplary *2021-03-25, version 1.0* Back when I had a gambling addiction (around the age of 25 when my wife left me), I never once packed my bags to head to Vegas or shoot dice with the boys off the corner of 14th. High stakes gaming was never for me either, as any simulation retriggered some of the trauma left behind by the fateful night of April 26th, when my wife discovered that I spent our baby daughter’s college fund to lose it all on slots. Then I tried out this game—which by the way, I have never played dominos—by recommendation and loved it! The learning curve isn’t too difficult and it’s quite enjoyable once you get a feel for it! The app itself operates smoothly despite it being in V1. Excited to see more features added to the game, but it is still very good nonetheless. I would give it a 5 if it was out longer. My new wife and sponsor, Heather, will be excited to hear about this new finding, though she doesn’t know I’ve been secretly playing this game underneath the bar table in our basement. I’ll wait till she checks the internet bill! ## Frequently asked questions about Big Stakes 5 ### What is Big Stakes 5?
