As a Christian I have no intentions of reading it. Why do some sites/games keep showing it? ### 3/5 — Keeps crashing *2026-06-07, version 1.18.0* I love this game. It is fun and I play throughout the day. However for the past month or so, the game crashes mid play. It is super annoying. I have to close it out wait and open it later. This is happening multiple times a day right now. Please fix!!! I do not want to stop playing. ### 3/5 — Great game but unstable *2026-06-03, version 1.18.0* I love this game but it freezes 80 percent of the time. Too bad because it otherwise well executed and really fun to play. ### 4/5 — Not the same *2026-03-18, version 1.18.0* I used to love this game and played it often. Now, like so many others, it puts in lots of ads between games. Very sad. ### 3/5 — Bring back the hard level *2026-03-01, version 1.18.0* There used to be a secret level that went way faster than “crazy ninja.” Please bring it back. Its really boring to literally never lose… and i used to love this game ### 4/5 — Great game! *2026-02-20, version 1.18.0* This is such a fun game. We call it Pounce. Recently however, this game has had many glitches. I delete the app and reinstall, but no help. ### 3/5 — iOS 26 glitch *2026-01-28, version 1.18.0* Touch sensitivity has always been an issue that needs to be addressed but I’ve gotten used to it. But since iOS 26, almost every other round I play, the app has some kind of seizure and completely locks my phone up. ### 3/5 — Glitchy *2026-01-22, version 1.18.0* Fun but way glitchy like almost never get through a hand without it spazzing out ### 2/5 — Touch Sensitivity Bad *2025-08-16, version 1.17.3* Kinda important to have touch sensitivity work for a game that is all about being quick. This game was fine on the easy levels, but on the harder levels, it’s frustrating when I try to drag the card to the center and it goes right back where it was! Happened a bunch of times and ruined the experience for me. Also, you’re playing against the computer, and sometimes the computer is programmed to make it impossible to compete with. It will not throw a card in until it knows I’ve gone past one that would work if I had a 9 or something. But then it throws in a 9,10, Jack, Queen, and King right there! A little unrealistic to happen all the time throughout the game. I’ve played Nertz hundreds of times in large groups and it gets crazy, but the computer seems to make it impossible to play certain cards half the time. ### 2/5 — missing 1 thing *2025-07-22, version 1.17.3* i love this game. but what i dont love is not being abke to play with my friends. please add a feature where we can join friends and play. PLEASE. i’ll pay u ### 4/5 — Nice game! *2025-07-20, version 1.17.3* Finally a simple game with no ad interruptions (except at the end of a game). Hate that that’s a reality now. But I’m glad games like this are around. ### 3/5 — Needs shuffle *2025-04-12, version 1.17.3* For some reason I cant shuffle my fookin cards, i inly see the shuffle button once every 10 games, also sound effects would make it better ### 5/5 — Fun app! *2025-01-29, version 1.17.3* So much fun! Love playing this cool game ### 5/5 — Best Nertz App *2025-01-26, version 1.17.3* Great way to play Nertz offline, but would love an online mode! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Update is awful *2026-06-25, version 1.19.0* Been playing since 2009. Bring back the smooth game without the jerky nonsense. Looking for a replacement :( ### 1/5 — Glitching *2026-05-21, version 1.18.0* This game is so fun and I love that I can play it on my phone. However, it glitches/freezes, and makes me close out and re open 80% of the time. Have to practice some extreme patience to play this game. ### 1/5 — Freeze constantly *2026-01-22, version 1.18.0* I can’t even finish a game without I’d freezing and glitching. ### 1/5 — App will not load *2023-08-23, version 1.9.2* I have installed the app several times. A screen shows up related to making ads more relevant. Then the screen goes blue. I cannot get past this screen. I used to play this game and really enjoyed it until it imploded. ### 1/5 — Bad *2023-05-21, version 1.9.1* Unskippable ads ### 1/5 — Annoying sounds! *2022-12-01, version 1.9.1* Why the sudden sounds?? So annoying! Deleting now. ### 1/5 — Nertz *2022-11-13, version 1.9.1* Unfortunately, the app crashes frequently, almost every time I play. Very Frustrating!!! ### 1/5 — Broken game *2022-09-05, version 1.9.1* While you play, your stream cards wont move or let you go through the hand again. The other players were still going while i was unable to play further multiple times. I tried re-loading the game twice and it was a consistent issue. ### 1/5 — Older version was better *2018-05-15, version 1.8.0* Loved this game until a month ago when it changed and a shuffle button was added. The button appears when I have cards that can be played but when I don't have any to play, the button has disappeared and I'm not able to shuffle. Currently looking for a different app to play on. ### 2/5 — App Keeps Crashing on iOS 26 *2026-01-29, version 1.18.0* App continuously crashes on iOS 26. Before I upgraded, the app worked fine! Used to love playing this game ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Still be updated *2026-06-16, version 1.19.0* Quality difficulty levels. Good practice against my in-laws that are killer at the game. ### 5/5 — Love nertz *2026-06-11, version 1.19.0* Only issue with this app is that my stats are not visible on iOS (they’re cut off). It’d be nice if they’d fix that. ### 5/5 — solid nertz game *2026-02-05, version 1.18.0* does everything fairly well. The stats are a nice feature. The ads are not too disruptive. ### 5/5 — I love this game and used to love this app *2026-01-16, version 1.18.0* The game freezes and crashes constantly, it’s almost unplayable at this point. I used to play this all the time and loved it, but until this gets fixed I don’t think I can play… it’s way too frustrating to have to start over constantly ### 5/5 — Best game to play during class! *2025-12-25, version 1.18.0* I started playing this game on my computer and discovered there was an app…best game ever!! Although the easy mode is sooo much more difficult than on the computer version of the game. Not super complaining because I like a challenge! ### 5/5 — Nertz jd *2025-09-21, version 1.18.0* Great game fun to play. ### 5/5 — download this game ! *2025-08-05, version 1.17.3* brill game ### 5/5 — Great game *2025-03-22, version 1.17.3* Never rated any game out app, but this one is worth it. Great job team! ### 5/5 — Fun Game *2025-02-26* Started playing as the tabletop version with coworkers on lunch, and found this to help with my speed for playing in person. This is one of the most fun card games I’ve played in a long time. ### 5/5 — Really fun *2025-02-24, version 1.17.3* Played the card game with friends and it got me hooked. Hopefully playing this version makes me better in real life. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
