### 5/5 — Great game

*2012-07-08, version 1.1*

Love this one.  Would be thrilled to see new levels to play soon.  Hint hint.

### 5/5 — Great!!!

*2012-04-21, version 1.1*

Fun game and addicting.

### 5/5 — Gamer

*2012-04-08*

I do really like this game,just wish they would ether add more levels to this game or come out with a second game

### 5/5 — Something good in the neighborhood!

*2012-02-28, version 1.1*

Here is a direct port of the PC game with GC leaderboards (tracking your top score in each game more). The game has a number of in game achievements but I'm not sure if they're recorded as GC achievements.

It's a very clever suite of 10 card games all loosely based on Gin Rummy but really kicked up a notch so as to come off almost like some sort of Reiner Knizia card game (IMHO) and all based around sort of a suburban neighborhood theme (with modes representing furnishing a condo, holding a yard sale, remodeling a bathroom, etc.).

### 5/5 — Great

Love this game.

### 5/5 — Great

*2012-01-26, version 1.1*

I do love this game.. Very addicting. Makes you mad at times, but gives you good a good challenge. I was excited when the new update came, but then disappointed when there were no new levels. Please get some new levels SOON.

### 5/5 — Awesome!!!

*2012-01-12, version 1.0.1*

Just needs more updates!!!

### 5/5 — Excellent!

*2012-01-08, version 1.0.1*

What an awesome and addictive game! New life breathed into rummy...The graphics are great and the implementation is wonderful! I really hope they will add multiplayer soon. This game is so good I wish it was a real card game, I would certainly buy it!

### 5/5 — Great fun

*2011-06-20, version 1.0*

Kind of a new concept.  I find it a lot of fun.  It's like a board game and card game combined.

### 5/5 — Glad to see it here

*2011-06-20, version 1.0*

I've loved playing the PC version for years. Glad to see it here in the app store. A unique card game with hard to achieve trophies. The rounds vary gameplay a bit which keeps it interesting.

### 1/5 — Picket Fences

*2014-08-22, version 1.1*

I am being asked to pay for the upgrade again. I have already paid for the upgrade. Please correct this malfunction.

### 1/5 — Beyond dumb

*2012-09-09, version 1.1*

Beyond dumb

### 1/5 — What Happened?!

*2012-02-26, version 1.1*

Great game...up until now!  It crashes and deletes any progress as soon as you leave the game!  PLEASE fix this travesty from occurring any longer!

### 3/5 — Mediocre

*2012-12-14, version 1.1*

This game is really nothing more than "pick the least terrible option from the crap you are dealt". But I guess that's what rummy is, so whatever. The bonus cards mean the person who completes sets first is likely to stay in the lead, grabbing more cards. At least it's well polished and doesn't crash. I'm giving it three stars because what it does is well executed, it's just not much strategy.

### 4/5 — Won’t restore purchases

*2019-06-07, version 2.0.1*

I love the game, however on downloading on a new device it says I have to repurchase all the levels.

**Developer response:** Apple's App Store keeps track of which games you've upgraded via your Apple ID.  Picket Fences won't realize you already paid for card games 4 through 10 until you allow the game to contact the App Store via the Restore process.

Simply tap the “Restore" button on the main screen in the Picket Fences app while your device has an internet connection.  You'll know levels 4 through 10 are recognized as purchased if they don't show "Full Version" when you're on the Level selection screen in the game.  They might show a padlock, meaning you need to win victory medals in Games 1 through 3 before you can play Game 4.

### 4/5 — fun game

*2011-06-21, version 1.0*

this would be a five star game but on the deck level it won't recognize that i collected all the furniture cards. very frustrating. please fix so the i can win all the trophies.

### 5/5 — This is my go-to game on airplanes

*2019-08-30, version 2.0.1*

No internet needed and it has a wide variety of games within to play. It’s interesting, strategic and really just fun. Really can’t say enough good things about it.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2017-07-29, version 2.0.1*

I play this a lot & really love the game. It is also frustrating sometimes.  I try to get all the metals.  Keeps my interest.

### 5/5 — One of my favorites!

*2016-06-20, version 1.1*

Played this years ago and was happy to see it available for iPad. It's one of the few games I play over and over. Very different; card game with some strategy.  Only con: the "free game" for a couple of hands then the prompt for full version. A bit misleading. I would rather know cost up front. But that may just be me. Other than that, a fun game with replay-ability

### 5/5 — Variety is spice of life

*2015-10-05, version 1.1*

Each round is different, challenging. Loved it on the PC but wasn't available on Mac until I found there was an app for that!
