Unreal!! ### 3/5 — Good design but Limitations! *2026-03-09, version 2.1.78* I've played Gin Rummy card games in apps for about 10 years. Just got this one. I like the calm graphics that don't pressure you to play as quickly as some. Limitations after my first week: 1) Today, it has generated the exact game I played yesterday! I had to work thru it again to get to a new game. A few other games have also started out familiarly (I remember the scenarios and my goals with the hands), but I may have made new choices that took me down a differing path. Still, not enjoyable! 2) It is portrait orientation only. This makes the cards in my hand very skinny and I have several times pulled out the wrong card (even a melded card next to the hand!!! Oh NO! And no "back button"!!) several times. Very frustrating. I have learned to pull a card up and make sure of it before playing, but other games in landscape mode do not have this problem and extra step that distracts concentration. 3) Even though the card movements are graceful and more relaxing (good), the appearance doesn't have as many nice choices as other apps. 4) Also, the speed doesn't pressure you (good), but the prompt "it's your turn" comes up while I'm still looking at what to play! It does fade quickly, but I see no way to turn this interruption off. Sorry if any of these are just new user error, but perhaps these things could be included in design modifications? For everything I like about it, THANK YOU! I'll keep trying it a while longer. ### 2/5 — Not random *2026-02-18, version 2.1.76* There is nothing random about this game. If you watch closely you will see what I mean. It’s about as random as a clock telling time. ### 4/5 — Unhappy *2025-01-01, version 2.1.46* Not happy that it will take my card to toss away when I pause too long ### 2/5 — Terrible algorithm *2024-11-28, version 2.1.44* I don’t mind losing but losing 90% of the games while your opponent magically gets a gin or knocks within the first few hands just takes the fun out of the game. ### 3/5 — Music stops *2024-10-25, version 2.1.44* Lately the music stops about 1 minute into the game. I loved the music. Have tried everything to get it to play. How do you upgrade to the new update? Does it fix this issue? ### 2/5 — Ads *2024-06-28* Too many ads and they are far too long there is no way to skip forward even when there is a sign that says skip ads ### 4/5 — Bravo *2024-03-21, version 2.1.29* Buona giornata ### 2/5 — Ok *2024-01-14, version 2.1.26* Freezes often and have to turn off iPad and back on to clear it ### 4/5 — App is good, inappropriate ads *2023-12-29, version 2.1.26* I like the app but sharing a heads up to parents. For a game app that is rated 4+ years old, they sure don’t seem to screen what kind of ads are shown between games. Lately one of the ads have been this sexualized cartoon bunny that you are prompted to choose to mock or be nice to, and then it seems to spiral from there. ### 1/5 — Great but bad card shapes 🤮👎 *2023-09-08, version 2.1.24* A nice game, but the defect has three points: 1 it does not have the joker tag, 2 the real Konkan classic ui are emblazoned on the cards, and 3 you cannot move your points and play with it wherever you want, this is very annoying ### 3/5 — Problem with laying off *2023-08-28, version 2.1.23* There seems to be a glitch with layoff when the opponent knocks. I have had many hands with layoffs and this game doesn’t do it. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Lousy *2025-08-03, version 2.1.59* I’d have given this 0 stars if I could have, the dealing algorithm for this game is a joke. You can predict if you will win or lose the entire game off of a few draws. There is no middle ground or suspense, entirely predictable. Waste of time. Deleting it now as there are very few real matches against live players even though they act like they are. Complete trash! Update: still use it for multi player, but the game is still trash. Rarely do you play an actually human, and the computer player almost always gets a magical hand! ### 1/5 — Lousy *2025-05-09* I’d have given this 0 stars if I could have, the dealing algorithm for this game is a joke. You can predict if you will win or lose the entire game off of a few draws. There is no middle ground or suspense, entirely predictable. Waste of time. Deleting it now as there are very few real matches against live players even though they act like they are. Complete trash ### 1/5 — Money hungry *2024-12-08, version 2.1.44* This game plays an ad after every hand and you can play till 200 points. They want $4 a month for no ads. This game is nothing special, has so so graphics, generated profile pics and ad after ad ### 1/5 — Loading *2024-09-08, version 2.1.36* Game doesn’t load for iOS ### 1/5 — Ads Ads and more Ads *2024-07-31, version 2.1.36* I don’t know why a review said that it didn’t have an over abundance of ads, since I played 3 hands and got an ad after every hand. Don’t waste your time with this one ### 1/5 — Trop de triche *2024-07-20, version 2.1.36* C n’est pas possible de jouer trop de tricheurs les parties dure. Une seconde ### 1/5 — Ads *2024-04-26, version 2.1.34* Too many ads. Its ridiculous ### 1/5 — No ads *2024-04-16, version 2.1.29* Too many ads ### 1/5 — Review *2023-12-22, version 2.1.26* Game is ok but way to many adds unless you want to pay 3.99 a month. Adds are longer than game ### 1/5 — Deleted the app *2023-12-04, version 2.1.25* The ads are FOREVER LONG! I could make a sandwich in the amount of time between hands. I understand running ads but not “commercials”! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Fun with GIN RUMMY *2026-02-17, version 2.1.76* Greatest ### 5/5 — nice nancy *2025-11-06, version 2.1.68* fun and relaxing ### 5/5 — Can I with some online *2025-02-24, version 2.1.51* I would like to lay with daughter ### 5/5 — Fun *2024-11-13, version 2.1.44* I always enjoy Gin Rummy ### 5/5 — Love this, but… *2024-06-06, version 2.1.36* I adore this game. Classic game and fun to play with people from all over the world. BUT the app freezes, often right in the middle of the game. The only thing I’ve been able to do is delete the app and reload it. It’s a bummer… this would be my go-to game if it worked properly. Sigh ### 5/5 — Good job. *2024-02-06* I am loving this card game,it’s keeping the grey cells alive. ### 5/5 — I wish there wasn’t soooooo many adds *2023-10-22, version 2.1.25* I wish ### 5/5 — Love it *2023-09-06, version 2.1.23* Enjoy playing everyday fun exciting and works the brain ### 5/5 — Il gioco si spegne *2023-07-29, version 2.1.23* Chiedo scusa ma da quando ho fatto l’aggiornamento il gioco si interrompe prima che iniziò la partita… dato che è tanto che ci gioco potete aiutarmi? GRAZIE ### 5/5 — Question *2023-07-11, version 2.1.21* Is this game no longer available in the Google Play store? I can’t find it anymore. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
