### 4/5 — Great App

*2017-04-12, version 2.3*

Simple straightforward app that's great for learning the game & sharpening your skills.

### 3/5 — Balance

*2017-03-08, version 2.1*

You need to better balance the game, I have a feeling that I have my limited tiles at my disposal, whereas, the AI seems to have All the rest of the tiles!

The graphic interface could be better. The playground is narrow..

Thank you for producing the game.

### 3/5 — It needs to be fixed.

*2016-05-23, version 2.0.2*

Nice game, but it needs improvement. While playing, if you can't go, you pick up several dominoes and if you over fill and you need one that you know is hidden on the left, it doesn't let you browse. It is very irritating knowing you cannot play it and then  lose the game. Please, fix it! Then you can have 5 stars.

### 5/5 — Great game

*2016-02-18, version 2.0.1*

I really like the option of playing 5s and 3s at the same time. Also like the option to decide how many points should be required to win the game. Love the bubbling stars. Tech support is great.

### 3/5 — good fun

*2015-10-13, version 2.0.1*

couple of bugs, but they are getting to them. Down to three from four due to the nag screen begging me to log into Game Center every time I start the app. If I want to log on to Game Center I'll hit the button, ok?

### 5/5 — Fantastic!!!!

*2014-06-25, version 1.5.1*

Love it!!!! Spectacular sound effects & screen colors!!!! Brings back wonderful nostalgic memories!!!

### 3/5 — Colored dominoes?

*2014-01-31, version 1.5.1*

It is beyond me why the dominoes do not have colored dots. Also, the game board could be bigger.  The game play is fine.  However, I would like to see an option to play with more dominoes. Double 9s or 12s.

### 5/5 — The best

*2013-10-05, version 1.5*

Definitely the best dominoe game in the apple store

Multiplayer is great. Always find a random player

Developer is always updating

### 3/5 — Unplayed bones not show?

*2013-08-27, version 1.4.3*

Why can't I see the opposition's unplayed bones after I domino?  The computer had 4 dominos left and I got 5pts.  I doubt that.  I want to see those unplayed bones not take the game's word for it.

Still no change.

### 4/5 — Dominoes

*2013-08-23, version 1.4.3*

This is a very good game keeps you playing while you are trying to understand how the Computer points adds up so quickly.

### 4/5 — Great Game

*2013-08-23, version 1.4.3*

Great game.....needs a few additions.....I.e. multiple color sets of dominoes, ability to play in stand-alone and change background !

### 5/5 — Best domino app!

*2013-07-24, version 1.4.2*

I really enjoy this app! It has solo play and the ability to play against a friend. Runs smoothly and has multiple games and difficulty levels. Great app! :)

### 1/5 — This game is the worst

*2022-01-26, version 2.3*

This gets a zero from me. It started blowing up my iPad so I deleted it but the notifications didn’t stop.

### 1/5 — Glitching on iOS 13

*2019-09-25, version 2.3*

Not running properly with new iOS

### 1/5 — Frank

*2017-10-04, version 2.3*

Cant invite friends via email or text. Game Center no longer is available. Can you update please

### 1/5 — Time for a TRUE update

*2014-10-19, version 2.0*

Could it be? After a year if waiting the update has arrived. Now to see if the bugs are worked out.

Old Review:

Let me count the ways:

1) Several times a day, the computer has 3-8 dominoes when I Domino (go out) but I get zero points. 

2) The AI is weak... Even in hard the computer makes dumb moves.

3) The rules are wacky and not customizable. Almost like someone who has never played dominoes wrote this program. 

4) Multiplayer is awful, not in real time AND it takes weeks for some players to move. 

5) About 30% of my computer wins are not counted, making it that much harder to climb up the leaderboard.

6) Sometimes when playing online, I have dominoes in my hand, which have already been played on the board.

7) NO MEANINGFUL UPDATE IN MONTHS

### 2/5 — Five Up, but only one playable spinner. :(

*2018-08-24, version 2.3*

Went for this because the preview images suggested that I had finally found a proper implementation of Five Up -- where every spinner is playable. No such luck! Like all the other apps, only the first spinner is playable.

Unlike my regular go-to game, the developer has an idea for laying out domino tiles that might accommodate multiple spinner action. So, it has some potential. As it stands it is not an improvement the domino app I have, so I won't be using it. Still, I'm going to keep this installed for a while and hope an update might bring this much desired feature.

### 2/5 — Rule change ruined strategy play

*2017-04-10, version 2.3*

My husband and I have enjoyed playing this game for a couple of years. The last update changed the option to draw tiles when you have a playing tile in your hand - which ruined most of the strategy play and has made it simply a game of luck of the draw. If it is not corrected with the next update we will quit playing this game and find another.

### 2/5 — Multiplayer

*2015-12-28, version 2.0.1*

The only way to play friends is if everyone has a gamecenter account. I have several iPads/phones/pods and my non Apple owning friends can't play even on my devices. Please make it to where you can play against people in a different way; Facebook, email, or something like that.

### 2/5 — Pretty good, but...

*2012-07-29, version 1.1.1*

It crashes way too frequently, sometimes the phone gets really hot and the battery drops fast, an the multiplayer is really spotty, which is the biggest problem for me. Even sitting at home playing my wife over wifi I have to back out to the main menu to force it to look for a move I know has been made. I'm fine with the rules implementation because there are so many variations, but the layout and inability to zoom I find annoying. Doubles often play off an end instead of the middle and the clutter can make it hard to read at times. If some of these can be fixed I be a lot happier.

### 2/5 — Almost there

*2012-06-20, version 1.1*

Finally a domino that almost nailed it. Almost. Please update to not allow a person to draw a domino if they have a domino that can be played. Do not allow a player to pass if they have a playable domino. Also-make it possible to see the entire board when playing. Really annoying having to swipe back and forth.

### 3/5 — The last change ruined the game for me

*2017-04-27, version 2.3*

My family and I loved playing this game until the last change where you have to play a domino and can't draw.  I agree with the other lady - if this isn't fixed, we may quit playing also.

### 5/5 — The major fault..

*2020-04-03, version 2.3*

The ost engaging D game anywhere!
Fault not enuf color choices. This is a great game

### 5/5 — Best multiplayer dominos app

*2020-03-28, version 2.3*

I’ve downloaded and tried about 20 different multiplayer domino apps and this is the only one that has the closest rule set to how I normally play. Most notable features: not casino style, no facebook login needed to play, 3 player option, no time limit. 

My only request is to add an option/setting to change the tiles in hand to 7 in a 3 and 4 player game. Other than that this is the domino game you’ve been looking for.

### 5/5 — The Best

*2020-02-08, version 2.3*

I have looked for months for a domino game that is the same type play that I play when it’s live.  Every game I found but this one would give hints and/or not score correctly. And, I can just play the computer which is what I wanted. I have also found that no one has an actual boneyard you can draw from. That would be kind of fun instead of the computer giving it to you but maybe there isn’t enough room for that on a mobile app.  That’s a small detail. This one is a great find for me! Thank you.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2019-09-28, version 2.3*

Love the sixes app would love to see win and lose stats with each opponent . Can’t play more than 30 games at a time thanks GameCenter .... overall great app

### 5/5 — Great game

*2018-08-09, version 2.3*

Love dominoes

### 5/5 — A keeper

*2017-04-17, version 2.3*

This is a nice way to relax at the end of a long day.

### 5/5 — Best Dominoes Game!!

*2017-04-15, version 2.3*

Hands down this is the best dominoes game in the App Store!

### 5/5 — Solid game

*2017-03-05, version 2.1*

Simple and straight forward lets you concentrate on the game. The computer opponent isn't bad, and this is a solid way to pass some free time.

### 5/5 — Wonderful....

*2017-02-23, version 2.1*

Love the new colored pips, more options like backgrounds and domino colors, not the pips but themes would be nice. ..really well done, thank you! 

Oh and the orange off screen bubble is ingenious! Can you make it so we can drop a domino on that bubble to play it too instead of tapping it to go there first.

Also I have games that are months old. If they don't move for a few weeks it
should be a lose for them. How is it counted against the player?

Best dominoes game in store but need more themes, backgrounds, etc. would be the icing on the cake!

### 5/5 — Great Dominos Game!

*2016-04-29, version 2.0.2*

Allows more options for both sides of the competition as well as more choices for the game format than any other dominos game I have seen. I play with my 3 youngsters who are definitely not challenged intellectually and we enjoy the game.
