Pinochle

Great app

Allows fake virus scam ads

I used to love this app and played it all the time but then it started serving up fake virus scam ads so I have had to delete the app. I got the scam ads several times.

Game

Love game, hate how partner passes cards. Keeps trump to save meld, doesn't pass correctly. Partner bids needing a lot, but passes with a full. Partner doesn’t smear when should

Ridiculous

The opposite auto team is constantly getting 30-40 in meld… runs, aces around, the works. It always deals me one card short of a blockbuster hand.

Only had a run once, aces around only once. Off a run by one card dozens of times, same with aces around. Utterly ridiculous.

I can lose fine, but not in ridiculously lopsided fashion in the way the app is creating the hands dealt.

Really Great Game, I Play All The Time

I really do enjoy this version of Pinochle. Not many people know how to play it and I’m not often around my relatives who do. This is a great substitute. I like the customization (like a priority on sending for Pinochle when S/D are chosen, changing cards/faces, trump color, game modes, score mods), the animation, and the overall presentation. However, my computer partner drives me crazy with the bidding (sometimes they’ll pass with a good hand), and my opponents seem to get Double Pinochle quite frequently (this is rare in realtime gameplay). Other than that, I highly recommend this game!

Ridiculous

I like playing Pinochle and this is probably the best app for it. But it is a little ridiculous with some of the hands that the two computer players get it’s not uncommon for them to score over 50 points in a hand so the dealing is kind of ridiculous.

Signals

When playing an ace on partners ace partner does not return the suit. This happens 20 percent of the time. I have complained about this several times

Disgusting adds

I am sick of seeing all the half naked people displayed along the top of the screen.

Inappropriate ads

Just trying to play the game when pornographic images appear. Completely inappropriate.

Ad Banner Problems

I’ve had this game for years. No problems at the beginning but ever since the ad banner has been added to the top it has gotten worse. The ads are in the way of the scoring and partner cards, and not always appropriate. There is no option to contact the game designer or remove the ads. It’s a bummer. Hoping it gets fixed soon.

Pinochle

If you like pinochle then this is the game for you.

Basic Game Rule!

Would love to give this five stars, but the settings of the game are missing the most basic rule of pinochle - a team must get 20 pointers to score. The fact that this is not an option makes it impossible to come back from behind and teams get points when they should not. Also frustrated with the imbalanced deal by the AI - frequently, the AI opponent is stacked with meld.

Excellent game!

By far the best pinochle game to play alone against three comparable opponents without the drama and attitudes of playing online.

Bad update

Another bad update! Cards are now mushed together! Change it back to the way it was! Some of us are older

Ask me. Ok

I can’t eliminate this from the game it used to work now. It asked me every time.

Recent updates

I don’t know what you decided to do, but there is something wrong when your partner has and 8 card straight and 50 meld and they pass at a bid of 60. You need to fix the partner bidding strategy.

New Update is Terrible

This new update rearranged things and now covers the cards. Not a smart update. The ads are also getting in the way of the game.

Review

Bad .. I have played this game for years and recently they have placed an ad across top of game that makes it unplayable. I uninstalled it.
