### 2/5 — AI moves too quick

*2020-07-30, version 2.2*

Never played 9 Men’s Morris before, but this app makes the common mistake of the AI moves being too quick to understand what happened & learn from - so will remove this app try a version elsewhere.

### 2/5 — Hard AI Is Not Good Enough

*2014-11-26, version 1.5*

I got the free version of the game primarily to learn to play the 9 Man Morris so I could win in Assassin's Creed III. What I did is test whether I could win by imitating the moves from hard AI versus AI in Assassin's Creed III. But the app's AI, on Hard, made absolutely irrational moves that never once lead to victory.

### 2/5 — Buggy

*2014-02-07, version 1.5*

Would be a 5 star but the main game I play (9 Mens Morris) has some major bugs. I only play Hard mode (I tried network many times but it never connects) regardless of the difficulty when I undo (which I rarely do but unintended moves happen) after a piece has been taken the piece comes back as black 100% of the time regardless of what color it was before or what color the player is. But the worst one; I've probably beat the AI in Hard (without undo, and I've never used hint) over 100 times in just the past few days because I play matches on the bus, while I'm waiting for something to load, during commercials, et cetera and each match takes just 2-5 minutes or so and it claims to award 30 points per victory and my score on the leaderboard is 150 and every time I check after a victory it doesn't go up (but on a rare occasion it goes up randomly). And it crashes a lot! Particularly when I take a piece. And when they have a mill or two and I try to take their last piece that's not in a mill it crashes every time.

I tried 4-in-a-row (Hard of course) and it doesn't even work at all, the AI never makes a move.

### 2/5 — If you want to win Morris, then don't get it

*2013-09-29, version 1.5*

When you are going to win, the game will ignore your move ....

### 2/5 — Keeps crashing

*2013-03-06, version 1.5*

Oh man, I really love all those games in one app. Unfortunately, always when I'm playing morris against computer or human, it'll crash when I'm close to winning. Fix it Felix!!!

### 2/5 — Morris

*2013-01-26, version 1.5*

Same problem as everyone else you need to fix Morris kicks you out if your gonna win -.-

### 1/5 — Cheating computer

*2013-01-14, version 1.5*

I seem to be having the same exact problem as everyone else. Whenever I play the game Morris ill get real close to winning and then it'll crash. I swear it's almost as if the computer has found it's way to cheat itself out of loosing.

### 2/5 — Really?

*2013-01-08, version 1.5*

Every time I start to win in Morris, the program crashes. This program really needs a fix.

### 2/5 — Please fix

*2013-01-08, version 1.5*

I love playing Morris but when ever I make the game winning move the app crashes

### 1/5 — Please fix

*2013-01-06, version 1.5*

I love playing Morris but I have run into a glitch where the game closes out when I'm about to take an opponents piece. PLEASE FIX!!!

### 2/5 — CRASH and Burn

*2012-12-23, version 1.5*

LOVE the game but it crashes, out of 10 attempts it would not let you finish even one game, thru Game Center, human, or even in game itself multiplayer, will try again if updated!!

### 2/5 — Bugs

*2012-12-14, version 1.5*

It's a beautiful game. I mostly played Morris in the middle. Perhaps the other games are better, but some times in this game, it fails to acknowledge 3 in a row - which is kind of like cheating. If the bugs are fixed, I'd recommend this app.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2012-12-04, version 1.4.2*

Terrible app.  Crashes constantly

### 1/5 — Crashes too much. Bored. Deleted it.

*2012-12-02, version 1.4.2*

The game crashes no matter which game is played.

### 1/5 — Extra downloads don’t work

*2021-10-14, version 2.2*

Rubbish

### 1/5 — SCAM...not worth it.

*2020-11-12, version 2.2*

Do not buy the add-ons.  They don’t work properly.

### 1/5 — UNFAIR!!!

*2017-07-14, version 2.1*

WORST GAME EVER YOU CAN NEVER WIN A GAME NO MATTER WHAT!! THE COMPUTER SCREWS YOU EVERY TIME!!! IF I COULD I WOULD RATE THIS GAME NEGATIVE FIVE STARS!!!!

### 1/5 — Most games simply don't function

*2015-09-24, version 2.0*

Don't waste your time or money. The game seems to have been a practice project for an amateur developer. It is left unfinished. 

Some games don't even function, they just sit there with the user unable to start playing. 

I've tried everything possible to resolve this, but the app is plain and simple not functional.

### 1/5 — So many problems!

*2013-07-04, version 1.5*

So crap

### 1/5 — Computer cheats.

*2013-07-02, version 1.5*

While playing nine men(fly) I was close to winning when the computer jumped across the whole board to block my next move. Also again in the same game The computer wouldn't allow me to take his peice.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2013-06-09, version 1.5*

The games would be fun except it crashes a lot, right when I'm about to win, as others have said, and even though when the app starts up again in the same spot, it continues to crash when I make the same move. Plus I don't really understand why the AI takes a really long time sometimes.

### 1/5 — Continues to crash

*2013-05-08, version 1.5*

I would absolutely love this app, but it continues to crash. The unusual and rage-inducing aspect of this unexpected crashing is that it happens whenever I make winning moves. This really ruins the app for me.

### 1/5 — Crashing!

*2013-04-11, version 1.5*

Love  love the games the app offers, absolute a favorite, but it keeps crashing please do fix!!

### 1/5 — Brian

*2013-02-06, version 1.5*

Downloaded the two extra packs and found that I can't play any of the Morris man games apart from Nine Man Morris!
The board just stays blank! Really annoying! Update please!

### 5/5 — Great game, excellent design

*2020-06-01, version 2.2*

Great game, excellent design

### 5/5 — More games!!!

*2013-06-22, version 1.5*

Add more classic games like chess, Chinese checkers, Yahtzee, backgammon, etc.

### 5/5 — First and only decent AI

*2012-12-15, version 1.5*

Well done. First 4 in a Row iOS game I wont win every time after 5 beers. Pls work on the speed. Especially at the beginning of the game I wait forever for the computers moves. Using 4 s

### 5/5 — Variety

*2012-03-06, version 1.4*

I enjoyed the free version of these beautifully designed games so I purchased both game packs which added a bunch of additional games to the enjoyment. I love the old time look and graphics. Excellent job.

### 5/5 — Great Games

*2011-01-04, version 1.0*

This is a great collection of games and a very well made game. I would even pay for it :-)

### 4/5 — Great games

*2014-03-23, version 1.5*

Really slow animations though. Please speed them up, and maybe remove the "you are playing x" screen that pops up every new game.

### 4/5 — More paks

*2013-07-15, version 1.5*

It would be cool to add chess, fanorona, ... To a game pak

### 4/5 — Beautiful...

*2011-08-08, version 1.3*

Great graphics! Gorgeous. The sound effects are simple and well thought out, they aren't the center of attention. Well worth 2.00 , but would be great if more games were accessible. They only have a few of the many original games out there.

### 4/5 — Good intent, needs polish.

*2010-12-18, version 1.0*

The developers clearly are putting effort into this title, and with some more polish, it would easily replace a lot of board game apps.  Here are a few suggestions to really improve this game:

1) graphic design: I see that they're going for a theme of ancient cartography and parchment which is very cool.  However, the limited range of earth tones and wood grains makes some of the elements hard to read.  In connect 4, the board color is very similar to the chips.  Don't be afraid to use a little more color, perhaps aged coins with turquoise oxidation instead of wood?  deep reds like in wax seals, etc?  More color!

2) font: I realize they wanted to keep it consistent with the script font, but it's rough on the eyes.  Maybe use the script font for headlines and select a classic serif font like Minion or Garamond (not the best, but it's free and accessible) for blocks of text, like instructions and menus.  The script font is just overused throughout the app.

3) the icon: looked great till it finished installing, then the final icon is bland and low res, and it just says "BG".  

4) a full screen mode with a nice, large board would be a huge bonus.

I give the suggestions because I love what you're doing with this app, and I think it has awesome potential!  Keep it up.

### 3/5 — Fun game, but tired of crashes

*2013-03-01, version 1.5*

The game Morris is fun and makes you think, but wish it wouldn't crash when I make the winning move.
