### 1/5 — I Have a Paid Subscription and Still Get Ads

*2024-11-14*

WHY??? I have asked multiple times to have the ads removed !! Please fix this or refund my payment! I am listed as having the full version! 😡

### 5/5 — Favorite Game

*2024-09-30*

This is my go to game.  I’m not a big arcade type player.  I go back and forth playing standard and kings only.  It passes the time, and I feel like I’m being challenged.

### 5/5 — Nice Game

*2024-01-30*

It provides a variety of challenges to overcome & is fun to tackle.

### 2/5 — Game ok until…..

*2023-12-11*

Why does it keep crashing? It keeps shutting down in the middle of a game!

### 1/5 — Keeps crashing

*2023-11-09, version 1.6.1*

Crashing for no apparent,reasons

### 2/5 — I’ve won more games than I’ve played 😆

*2023-11-06*

I love the game. I despise this app. Funny that the most used app in my inventory is the worst app in existence.

### 5/5 — myellow66

*2023-04-11*

Fun; easy to play while watching tv;

### 3/5 — Love the game

*2022-11-30, version 1.6.1*

This game is great until the trump ads continue to pop up. Will delete if they don’t stop showing these of a traitor and racist

### 1/5 — Tracks what I’ve copied to my clipboard :/

*2021-12-27*

When I open this app, my phone notifies me that text I’ve copied and is on my clipboard is pasted in this app. Not sure why, but it seems really questionable.

### 5/5 — NBTD

*2021-03-03, version 1.6.1*

Fun game.  Every once in a while it quits with game in progress.
