### 5/5 — Works great!

*2017-07-14, version 1.5*

Not sure why anyone complains about a game which is free. Thanks for all the hard work

### 5/5 — Really exciting

*2017-02-20, version 1.4*

Normally I don't play card games but this one really excited me. I've been trying so hard but I haven't won yet. But I will probably do it!

### 5/5 — I love it

*2017-02-19, version 1.4*

Definitely one of the best hearts apps out there

### 5/5 — Like in old times

*2017-02-19, version 1.4*

It’s still the good old hearts I used to play on my computer back in the days. Only now it includes new 3D graphics, improved design and some other nice stuff. A time-killa of all times!

### 5/5 — super

*2017-02-19, version 1.4*

Always loved card games and this app just wins it. The hraphics is just great and the app works without any breakdowns.

### 4/5 — Good game

*2017-02-18, version 1.4*

Nice game. I can improve my strategy and skills and play this game better in real life. But I'm not sure the computer plays at a very complicated level.

### 5/5 — Very Nice

*2017-02-18, version 1.4*

Just a great card game, a good and user-friendly interface and good graphics. I think the important thing in these games is simplicity and convenience, and this is all great in this game!

### 5/5 — Great game

*2017-02-18, version 1.4*

Like that opponents are smart, not as other gamers. Recommend to try, the game is really addictive

### 5/5 — Good

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Crash crash crash

*2026-03-18, version 1.11*

Constant crashing of game save yourself the trouble and download something else

### 1/5 — Whist

*2024-01-22, version 1.7*

Very slow

### 1/5 — Annoying Ads & too many duplicated hands

*2018-02-26, version 1.5*

This is a superior Hearts game but the constant showing of ads is truly annoying. Also, there aren’t enough unique card deals when a random card generator would seem easy to do. If these 2 problems were fixed I would give it 5 stars.  Big Problem:  the robot players are allowed to play a heart when in fact they actually had at least one card in the original suit, which wasn’t hearts. I know that because I have repeatedly seen it happen. It alters the outcome of that game since unwarranted points are given and the lead of the next hand is thus changed. Please fix so this app can get a 5 star rating.  Also, sometimes if I discard 3 cards, I get the same ones passed back to me. That is not allowed. What gets passed to me are 3 cards the person had in his hand BEFORE he looks at the 3 cards passed to him.

Update on Feb. 26, 2018: frequency of ads has gotten worse. Stupid dog ad shows up almost every 2 hands played!

### 2/5 — Fake reviews...nice

*2017-02-24, version 1.4*

Obviously fake reviews. All of them within 3 days of each other and none have a negative thing to say. Duh

### 3/5 — Too big

*2021-02-22, version 1.6*

Have liked the game for a while. The main issue was that regardless of what player shot the moon, the human always was credited. 

With the newest update, the issue is that the board takes up the entire screen and moving cards too easily hides the app because the minimize bar is near the bottom. Quite annoying. And because of that, I haven’t played enough to determine if the shooting of the moon issue has been fixed. 

Would be 5 star if sizing and crediting were fixed.

### 4/5 — Nice

### 4/5 — Alright

### 5/5 — NO ADS !!!

*2021-10-14, version 1.6*

This is an old game, probably from Apple 1. It is slow. But there are no ads. And it does not cheat, this is a real fair game, plays like the real physical game.  Graphics are old, game is slow but NO ADS!!! Thank you for no ads.

### 5/5 — Nice!

*2017-08-07, version 1.5*

This is a pretty great game. It's very simple to use with fantastic graphics and no lagging. However, playing with a computer can get a bit boring overtime. It would be really great if it allowed you to play with actual people in a multiplayer mode. Perhaps a suggestion for future updates? Nonetheless, I do recommend it for the cards fans out there.
