It drives me nuts. I have to turn the sound off and when I am wearing earbuds I can’t play at all. ### 4/5 — Pas capable de jouer à 2 joueurs *2024-03-17, version 5.5.69* Semble toujours jouer à 4 ### 5/5 — Machiavelli *2023-04-06, version 5.5.39* Most absorbing card game out there ### 5/5 — Love This Game! *2023-02-17* I used to play Machiavelli when I was a kid, and loved it. I haven’t played it in literally decades, so I was happy to find this game in the App Store. There are tons of customization options for gameplay, and the game runs smoothly. Definitely worth the purchase to remove ads and support the developer. Highly recommend!! ### 5/5 — Good game *2022-12-29, version 5.4.6* It is a challenging game. ### 4/5 — Updates *2022-06-19* The last two updates have added ads in middle of playing. This freezes up game or makes the game show completed when there is still plays going on. Please fix **Developer response:** Please update to the latest 5.3.5 Version. ### 5/5 — Machiavelli *2022-06-17* Je ne peux Platz jouer à ce jeu depuis hier **Developer response:** Le problème est lié aux messages publicitaires. La nouvelle version 5.3.4 devrait résoudre le problème que vous signalez, si cela persiste, contactez-nous au support technique. Cette version (5.3.4) est disponible pour iOS 13, 14, 15 et le futur 16. Si vous utilisez une version précédente d'iOS, il ne sera pas possible de résoudre ce problème. Vous pouvez éventuellement jouer sans réseau ou acheter la version sans publicité. ### 5/5 — Addictive *2022-05-12, version 5.3.2* Love the concentration that this game needs. Completely clears my mind of everything else. Very addictive - I can’t stop playing 😀😠 I love all of your games - are there any developments planned for Canasta or Kalloki? 🤞🤞🤞 ### 3/5 — Fun app *2022-01-13* This is a fun game and a good app thought I could do without so many ads. ### 5/5 — Donna *2021-10-13, version 5.2.0* Fantastic game thanks! ### 5/5 — Love this game *2021-10-10* However I miss some of the old features. **Developer response:** Which ones? Please contact tech support to give us some details info@onmadesoft.com ### 3/5 — Can’t complete *2021-05-02* Nice game but it needs a lot of work, cannot complete a game without something going wrong. It shuts you out or freezes. Every game has a problem. To bad can’t play it I like it. **Developer response:** You are using a very old version of the game, you should upgrade to the latest version, probably you are using also an old iOS version that is not supported anymore ### 5/5 — Bellissimo!! *2020-12-16* Mitico e bellissimo gioco. Super piacevole da giocare, funziona benissimo. Complimenti!!!! ### 5/5 — Interrupt *2020-12-15* Too many interruptions **Developer response:** Online game has to be improved, we will work on it on the next few months, thank you for your patience ### 3/5 — Card Game *2020-11-20, version 4.7.1* Fun, fast moving. I enjoy it, ### 5/5 — Frank *2020-07-18, version 4.6.8* Best game ever ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Broken game *2025-05-16, version 5.5.120* After latest update. I hit “play score game” and it triggers an ad. After ad, I return to main screen…I hit “play score game” again, it triggers ad, and then returns me to Home Screen ### 1/5 — Ads *2023-03-17* This latest update plays ads after every game. I won’t be playing any longer. ### 1/5 — Impossible to see cards *2020-09-08, version 4.6.9* Just updated this and the game has been completely spoiled by the change of hand cards layout so you cannot hood multiple cards as you cannot read them deleting this game now after many happy years of playing shame ### 1/5 — Gilroy24 *2018-10-29, version 4.0* Very irritating update. Now sticks and graphics changes unnecessary. Much preferred previous version. ### 1/5 — Was Fun Until The Glitches Arose *2017-10-31, version 3.6.2* There's a serious problem with this. When playing, the "done" button doesn't appear and so one cannot progress. This is now happening 90% of the time, and progress on a game is lost no matter what happens. In addition to this, other players in the game can start their turn and then stop indefinitely, completely halting the game. Fix these faults! ### 1/5 — Great Game *2017-02-13, version 3.4.4* I really enjoy this game, I like that you can play against the computer If that is what you choose. I also like that you can design the game the way you want as far as number of players etc. is a great game for exercising your brain. I actually like all the games from this developer. ### 1/5 — Quel dommage ! *2014-12-11* Un jeu sensationnel, intéressant machiavélique : ça c'était avant. Une mise à jour après, et le jeu devient lent ennuyeux sans aucun intérêt. Vite, remettez en place plus de déplacements de la part des adversaires. Si le jeu retrouve sont peps je n'hésiterai pas à mettre les 5 étoiles qu'il valait avant, mais qu'il ne vaut plus dans sa nouvelle version...j'insiste! ### 2/5 — Machiavelli *2018-11-02* Comment savoir avec qui l’on joue ? Nord sud est ouest (ça ne va pas) J’ai un joueur qui attend depuis plusieurs jours. Je ne sais pas qui. Que faire ? **Developer response:** Si vous avez encore des problèmes contactez le support technique du menu d'aide du jeu. Sincèrement. Antonio Ferraioli. ------------------- Jeu offline: sud c’est vous, nord ouest et est sont des automates - Jeu en ligne contre des automates: les adversaires s’appellent automate 1,2,3 - Jeu en ligne contre des personnes: vous verrez le nom de joueurs en ligne ### 2/5 — Love old versions *2014-12-04, version 1.2* Great game. Played for hours. Involves skill. Would have given this 5 stars but latest version froze up 15 times in one game no matter who was the player. Onsoft has great games but newest versions are not as good. Rummy now shows two full screen ads in addition to the one at the bottom of the game. I was thinking of buying but problems with this game makes me hesitant. ### 3/5 — Trois pareils trop souvent *2022-07-15, version 5.3.6* Je joue hors ligne, cela serait plus agréable si les autres ne jetait pas toujours des séries toutes faite ( trois pareils ) souvent même trop souvent Cela est très mal fait de ce côté là et rends le jeu moins intéressant. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Hummingbird1032 *2025-01-19* I’ve been playing this game for years and I’m still enjoying it. I find the strategy challenging as it keeps me thinking. Try it, you’ll like it.. ### 5/5 — Great card game *2024-12-03, version 5.5.90* Great game, a lot of fun. ### 5/5 — Awesome *2024-10-05* This game is fun. I play everyday for keeping my mind sharp. ### 5/5 — Best card game *2024-07-22* Been playing this for years. My very favorite game by far. Hate to brag but I have become very good at it and win most times. Play it every day. Ok, so I’m addicted! ### 5/5 — Best Game Ever *2024-03-21* Been playing this game for years, and still my favorite ### 5/5 — Don’t upgrade! *2023-06-25* Lost ability to play the game. **Developer response:** Please let us know your problem at tech support, here we cannot provide support ### 5/5 — , *2023-05-28, version 5.5.47* Love it! Addictive. ### 5/5 — My favourite Italian cards game *2023-04-23, version 5.5.44* I have always loved playing to Scala 40 with my family and friends and Machiavelli is my favourite cards game. It’s addicting and I can’t stop playing it. Thank you so much for creating a mobile version of it. I’m so grateful for that. ### 5/5 — Sheju *2023-04-23, version 5.5.44* My screen is frozen ### 5/5 — Complaint *2023-04-08* I purchased the ad free version of game and now it is serving up very obtrusive ads. How do I stop the ads, or restore my version? **Developer response:** Please update the game to latest version release on 9th of April --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
