## Most critical reviews (9 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Nap

*2020-12-20, version 3.0.9*

Nearly the nap game I know but not quite..... jokers in  is wrong and can’t call 3 4 tricks

### 1/5 — Kysmi

*2018-06-18, version 1.1.1*

This game is alright but needs to be sorted you pay for no ads yet still get them so frequently its spoils it for the player and it could do without the jokers cards 8to ace would befine

### 2/5 — Poor

*2020-12-31, version 3.0.9*

Poor bidding system sometimes it goes straight to x5 with no other bids also the same person Barbara wins the majority of the games

### 3/5 — Could be better.

*2024-11-23, version 3.4*

Game would be far better without the use of Jokers. The AI players seem to get the better hands on a more regular basis.

### 3/5 — Glitchy

*2023-09-30*

Nice quick game. Minimal ads.  Glitchy at times. Rules could be better explained

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback, if you could please drop me a line about the glitches you’ve found I’d be happy to take a look at them (hit the little icon bottom right on the setup screen and scroll down to the email link)

### 3/5 — Hand sequence

*2020-03-21, version 2.1.3*

Hi you need to be able to see the sequence of cards laid by each player - when defending this is essential as players signal the content of their hand by the sequence they play cards - without being able to see that sequence a fundamental subtlety of the game is lost - anyway well done for putting a nap app there I was surprised to find one to be honest

### 5/5 — Good But ………

*2024-02-20, version 3.4*

Napoleon is an excellent Card Game. I’ve played it for years. This App Version whilst enjoyable falls a tad short on authenticity of the real game. 

Firstly 

There are far to many “ stonewalled hands “ particularly to the Robot Competitors ! Way to many in fact 👍

Secondly 

There is excessive “ over bidding “ again particularly by the Robots and I include 
“ Barbara “ who is anything but “ assured “ she and the other Robots constantly “ overbid “ despite not having a suitable “ hand “ with which to bid ! 

Thirdly

The use of Jokers is also questionable this was never a feature of the original game Napoleon. These should be replaced by an extra 
Card of lower value. 

Fourthly 

The Robots clearly haven’t a clue when it comes to an end game which is evident by the amount of times these Robots end up with a card of similar suit. In the real Nap each player should be striving to retain the last card in a different suit to prevent a player from being successful in obtaining all
“ five tricks “  

Fifthly 

There should be “ points “ deducted for failure to win the desired 5 Tricks. This would also deter speculative “ bidding “ with a poor hand ! that has absolutely No Chance of succeeding ! all the Robots are guilty of this tactic. Two of them frequently over bid obviously to prevent falling far behind in Points. 

Perhaps it’s not possible to change the current format ( I’m not a tech wiz ) 
As it is , it’s still enjoyable to play ( even though the Robots cheat ! and Do Not Follow the “ cards “ at critical moments ! but perhaps it needs some tinkering ( that’s a Cornish word 😉👌 ) 

Napoleon was my favourite Card game, I played for money with a regular school of players. It actually requires considerable Skill ! unlike Poker and Blackjack which is purely based on how deep your pockets are. 

I don’t wish to be overtly  critical of your efforts to bring this wonderful game to the to the iPhone which is definitely the “ smartest “ mobile device available but I respectfully suggest you have a 
re~think on how you can make this particular Card Game far more realistic 👍

Regardless of my comments above,  I will of course still enjoy your version and congratulations for bringing Napoleon to the App Store 👍

Kind Regards.

### 5/5 — Good game

*2021-07-20, version 3.1.6*

Have enjoyed playing this game, I’m used to playing without jokers but easy enough to play with them.

### 5/5 — great, but please add support for landscape mode

*2021-05-29*

overall great game, but please add support for landscape mode…would be handy when swapping between other apps when ipad in that mode rather than having to turn ipad to portrait….
