Terrible gin rummy
This is a bad implementation of gin. The rules are unlike any gin I’ve played and turn a profoundly skillful game into a luck fest. I’m also increasingly suspicious that the card distribution is illegitimate. No brainers are rare in real life gin rummy. No brainers are constantly occurring in this game.

Ads don’t work and other things
There are dozens of opportunities to earn extra currency by watching an ad. Very typical of ads so not by itself a big deal. The problem is that if you watch an ad you will not get credit for it as the ad will take over the app with no way out of it unless you completely close the game. The game also logs you out frequently which seems to defeat the point of having a login to begin with. A lot of small frustrations on what could be a very pleasant experience and great way to get people into their physical card packs. But just comes off as lazy.

Shuffler is inconsistent
Good game but the hands dealt are frequently basically unshuffled especially in gin rummy, with winning hands only requiring one or two cards, for or against.
Cheaters ruin it
Used to love playing multiplayer card games here, but the cheaters just make it unbearable. People team up by starting private games together and then going public or using guest accounts. What’s the point? Bicycle needs to try and fix these issues or at least give players the option to report. It isn’t even fun anymore.

You will play against a computer that stacks deck against you if you win.
I don’t recommend you play. I have played for over 3 years. And the computer will start only giving you losing hands if you win too much. Terrible algorithm. Play for fun and don’t expect a fair game.
