Ads
Why can’t I get out of that Ads after every game? I remember why I deleted the app in the first place. It never use to be that way.
Better cribbage
This is a better than usual online cribbage application. At least when you play against the computer you can count your own hand and there’s even an occasional mug. If you play a real person the app counts both sides.
Rigged
No skill needed because the computer already sets up who’s going to win, really disappointed in this game, the higher you rise the less points you win, making it harder to level up, and even if you win the game, if your opponents level is less, you get no points , I lost 9 games in a row , from random dealing, then won 1 game, and then 7 games in a row, fixed, fixed, fixed

What the …
You were one of the last standing with non invasive ads. Get rid of this meta bullcrap with the non-functioning close button!! I will uninstall this app in the blink of an eye!
Yuck
If you’ve never played cribbage with a deck of cards, you’ll like this.
Best for expert level.
Tried it after 4 years with another app. Ads are annoying but game feels real.

Excellent app
Very good full function app, with lots of ability to play different forms of Matchplay or singular games.
Good game, interface could be better
Deal is good and random, no hint of deal bias at strongest level of play (as far as I can tell after a few hundred hands played so far). Interface is definitely playable but (imho) could do with the scores being first displayed then added to the board after the “OK” is pressed to allow a little longer to review the scores? I like that the scoring is displayed with two pegs (as in a real game) so that you can see both where you end and where you started for each score.
Update after a few hundred more hands (still against strongest level):
1. It would be good to have a lifetime statistic - I only see the stats for the latest round?
2. I can’t claim that the deal is actually biased but my observation compared to playing against real players with a physical deck of cards:
(i) the scoring on each deal seems generally higher in the app than in real life - loads more 20+ hand scores than I ever see in real life, most of which fall to the computer. In “real life” I see countless games where the highest hand is 10-12 - and only one of those per game. “Fifteen four and the rest don’t score” should be happening more often imho.
(ii) the computer almost never fails to hit a really big (14+) score on the back straight and especially in the last 10 holes when it needs that score to win. I’ve only seen it fall short a handful of times now over hundreds of games.

Best app with a caveat
In reference to a recent review regarding card distribution. I have to agree. I just played a game and had a double run on every single hand (in brutal mode)…. Statistically that is extremely unlikely. Overall, since the update, my average hand score has increased by more than 4 points. I’m loosing interest because it feels like I’m using a cheat code.

The statistics are way off
This games cheats. 12 games in a row I’ve been skunked or just beaten. 74% losing streak. I’ve played this game since I was a young child. I’ve never seen such lopsided victories
Beware of ads on this app!
This app features ads for a sham retailer who lures users to click by falsely claiming products are from Nordstrom and Talbots.
Heavily rigged
Used to be a good game, I find it heavily rigged online however. I’ve been playing cribb for 20+ years, every game I play I get off to a flying start then get 5 or 6 dead hands and my opponent gets a constant 12 + every hand. I’m lucky if I don’t get skunked. Been playing for a week and it’s happened at least 10 games in a row. Cant be a coincidence!!!!

Ads are too long
Ads at the end of every game are a bit too frequent and tend to be very long. Some ads have a close button (x) that’s impossible to see. I’ve found myself running the game in airplane mode just to avoid ads, they’re that annoying. The game itself is good, not great… I play crib with coworkers with an actual board and actual cards, and in the thousands of games I’ve played in real life I haven’t scored a tenth of the hands over 24 points I have in this app. I know programming could be done to prevent this.

Grandpa would be proud
I have been playing this game most of
My life. I have fond memories with my grandfather. This has many of the things he me taught / learned. This is the best Cribbage’s computer game I have played.
Big fan

Best app with a caveat
In reference to a recent review about hand distribution and the developer’s response (that the difficulty level is related to how the app plays a hand and NOT about card distribution). I always play on Brutal level and the app on numerous occasions will lead with a 5. No one would ever do that unless they have no other options. That is very poor strategy. Why would the Brutal level do this? With the most recent update, I’ve notice much higher average hand scores for player and app which seems suspect. Very good app and highly recommended with a caveat.

Teaches and challenges you.
I used to be good at crib, but playing daily scrimmage has really upped my game. I can usually outplay any of my friends when we get together. I like the pace of a fast game and I like not having to deal the physical cards as I get older and less dexterous. This game meets my needs and then some. I pay not to have ads and it is well worth it. I've played other versions and other online card games, but this is my favourite.
