There are a ton of inactive players in my “recent games” queue. I can’t challenge many of the players I enjoy playing with unless I keep completed games in the bottom of the queue which then slows down the app. Please allow us to either remove players from the queue or challenge players by entering their usernames ### 3/5 — Needs work! *2023-06-28, version 1.76* The game is fun but the interface could be vastly improved. Would love to be able to arrange my cards in other configurations. Cards get randomly rearranged when you are not looking. And it’s annoying when you’re looking at your cards to have them turned over when your opponent’s turn comes up. Also there is a bug where the next person’s turn doesn’t appear on their screen. Please update!! ### 4/5 — Great game *2023-01-29, version 1.76* I like playing 5 Crowns with our friends. Now my wife and I can play at home without getting the deck out. One bug though, every game at some point it doesn’t register that the other player is done and it’s your turn. You need to go to the matches menu and reselect the current match. That’s the only problem I’ve encountered. ### 3/5 — Help! *2023-01-04, version 1.76* I purchased the paid version because it said you would be able to play against the “computer”. I cannot work out how to play against the computer? ### 5/5 — Fun with Family members playing *2022-10-11, version 1.76* My daughter and I live 6 hrs apart but your game being a common interest keeps us in touch almost every day. ### 5/5 — Excellent app version of this card game *2022-02-21, version 1.74* I’ve been using this game for the last few weeks and the more I use it the happier I am with the game. Although a little bit tricky to use at the start, once you get used to the different processes, the app resembles the excitement and frustration of the real game. It really is enhanced by the ability to play others online and that you can play multiple games at once. Kudos to the developers of this game. ### 5/5 — Great self paced game! *2022-02-21, version 1.74* Love this game and play it all the time! ### 5/5 — Great game *2022-01-20, version 1.69* Really enjoy playing 5 Crowns using this app. ### 5/5 — Love this game in spite of glitches! *2022-01-20, version 1.69* I love this game! Keep updating it! It’s fun to play with family members near and far! ### 5/5 — Love this game *2022-01-19, version 1.69* Love this game! It’s my favorite card game without all the shuffling! My husband and I constantly have a game going! ### 4/5 — Fun, but bugs *2022-01-09, version 1.68* We have played this every day and has gotten us through COVID quarantining, but very buggy. Need to shut down and reboot almost after very hand. ### 5/5 — Stay connected *2021-10-15, version 1.68* Such a fun way to stay connected to friends and family when you’re apart. Five Crowns has always been a game my family played and I introduced it to my friends and we would meet up and play monthly. When COVID ended our regular gathering, we found Five Suites and this has done the trick. It has truly helped during a time of isolation for so many. Thank you for a fantastic app! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Freezes up *2026-06-23, version 1.77* I play with my sisters and neice and the game has froze for my sister and I. We have turned off the computer and still is frozen. ### 1/5 — Fun to play *2026-06-13, version 1.77* It doesn’t let me start a game. It doesn’t let my friend start a game either. It keeps saying Game Center has blocked or the restrictions are set so that I can’t start a game. But I know that’s not the case. This game is a Five Star game but these errors need fixed. Also it gives a save error and doesn’t let my friend end her game. Please please please fix. I want to give 5 stars ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2026-04-26, version 1.76* Save your money. Doesn’t work. Looks like it was built in the 90’s. Want my money back ### 1/5 — Needs work *2026-04-08, version 1.76* When players quit mid game, the remaining player should automatically get the win. Some players quit when losing, poor sports. Games also glitches often when playing multiplayer over 2 players. ### 1/5 — No Instructions *2025-07-07, version 1.76* No Instructions on How to Play - that area sits blank. No Tutorial - that area sits blank. No idea how it got over 4 stars. The graphics are terrible and misspellings everywhere. Terrible waste of money. ### 1/5 — Unable to invite friends *2024-11-24, version 1.76* App visuals are underwhelming and most importantly every time I try to invite a friend I get an error message saying that “my invitation is not ready yet “. No way to get help or troubleshoot. Very unintuitive format. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2023-11-03, version 1.76* Could never get it to work. Interface looks clunky and is very unclear ### 1/5 — Terrible game *2023-02-25, version 1.76* The AI in this game is so bad, wait for something better ### 1/5 — Miss the old 5 kings game *2021-08-23, version 1.67* This game is a bit slow to play compared . ### 1/5 — Take a look at Trickster Cards. Your app is just not in the same league! *2021-02-13, version 1.66* Take a look at Trickster Cards. Your app is just not in the same league! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — My favorite game *2026-06-16, version 1.77* Playing this game makes me smile! Thanks Matt Gabriel for a fun experience. ### 5/5 — Play all the time *2026-05-28, version 1.76* My wife and I play this game almost every day. Especially when one is working and the other is not. We also have shared it with friends and can play them anytime, anywhere. Love the chat feature. ### 5/5 — Awesome fun *2026-05-26, version 1.76* Get it now ### 5/5 — Functional *2025-06-21, version 1.76* The UX is a bit strange at first, but you get used to it. Love to see 5 Crowns on mobile. ### 5/5 — Chat doesn’t work *2024-09-25, version 1.76* Other than that, i love it! ### 5/5 — Fun to play with family in other states *2023-08-10, version 1.76* My siblings are spread out over the US and we play this game often. It's a great way to stay connected! I've never had a problem in years of use but recently after iOS update 16.6, I could not start a new game or rematch, and a game started by someone else did not show up on my app. I thought I'd tried everything but couldn't get it to work. Out of desperation, I sent an email to the game developer. Matt replied within a day. He was unable to replicate my issue but suggested logging out and logging back into Apple Game Center. It worked! 5⭐️ for the game and another 5⭐️for game support. ### 5/5 — Couple of Suggested Changes *2023-08-05, version 1.76* First, love the game. I play with my sister who lives 750 miles away every night. Two suggestions: 1. Some kind of a “ding” whenever you get a new chat. I watch TV when I play the game and focus on my turn when I hear it’s my turn. Often miss a new chat for a bit. 2. My sister often has to step away from the game, family crisis, pet crisis, etc. When that occurs I wonder if the game is stuck or hung up, although that occurs rarely. If there was a button to press that said, “Stepping away for a minute” then I would know just to wait for her return. But as I said, play every night. GREAT GAME. ### 5/5 — Nanny *2023-05-16, version 1.76* This game keeps getting better and better! I look forward to my opponent’s move, so I can get back into the game!👍 ### 5/5 — Fun game but… *2023-05-12, version 1.76* The cards are too small. ### 5/5 — Really fun! *2022-10-27, version 1.76* Love this game but would love if you can also add a computer player to games with friends! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
