### 1/5 — PRACTICE

*2026-02-16, version 1.18*

It’s only practice. There is no option for me to compete with anyone.

### 5/5 — Great game

*2025-08-21, version 1.17*

Lots of fun

### 5/5 — Fun, helping pass the time.

*2024-12-28*

It’s a great game. Super entertaining. Helps fill the gap.

### 1/5 — New “improved” algorithm cheats players

*2024-05-28*

You’ll consistently lose 2/3’s of the time and win 1/3 of the time…if you’re lucky. This ensures you consistently have to deposit additional funds to continue playing the “for money” games whereas before, you could actually go on somewhat of a winning streak and accumulate funds. However, since the developers added this “upgrade” in the past month (as of May 2024) they keep touting how “it’s to ensure more fair matchmaking” but its made all of the games much less fun for everyone. I also suspect that, even though the developers vehemently deny it, there are bots playing these games like others have said.

### 5/5 — Great game

### 5/5 — Review

*2023-07-23, version 1.16*

Love this game

### 5/5 — So Fun

*2023-06-09*

One of the best “3 in a row” type games! I also trust the developer…there’s a lot of shady ones that will not let you win as you get close to winning money. I haven’t seen Tether do that…yet, lol.

Now I have 5 or 6 Tether games - soooo appreciate the no ads!!!!

**Developer response:** Hi Sigbo, thanks for the review and rating. We value your feedback and experience, so we are glad to hear you are having fun and testing your skills! -Tether Studios
