You either have to spend money or watch a bunch of ads everytime you play. If this system gets fixed my rating would go up. ### 2/5 — Fun, but I win and still don’t get diamonds. *2019-09-23, version 0.11.4* This is a fun game but anytime I win, I don’t get any diamonds. I’ve sat through a video to get extra stars and didn’t get any. ### 2/5 — Don’t purchase *2019-09-23, version 0.11.4* Game is fun and I paid to remove the ads. But after a couple of rounds you run out of diamonds and can’t play anymore without...you guessed it...watching ads. If you pony up to buy the app it shouldn’t only let you play 3 or 4 rounds before having to pay to restock your diamonds or watch another ad. ### 3/5 — Gems *2019-09-04, version 0.11.4* The game is fun to play... But once You run out of gems you HAVE to watch as our purchase them. There is no daily gift like Amy other game out there. Would give a 5 if it wasn't for that. ### 1/5 — Cash grab *2019-07-28, version 0.11.3* I feel sorry for the developers of the game who worked so hard on the mechanics, just for players to play a couple games and get paywalled. Deleted after it literally forces you to spend money to keep playing. ### 1/5 — Ads ads ads *2019-07-22, version 0.11.2* Paid for the ad free version of the game. Now the game has been “improved” by charging gems to play, and to get gems...you guessed it. Watch more ads (or pay more money for gems). I would never have paid for the ad free version had I known this update would render the purchase worthless. ### 1/5 — Good concept. Bad business model. *2019-07-21, version 0.11.2* Good game concept but charging “gems” to play after initially being free (and calling it improvements in the update) is a slap in the face. Already have an ad at the end of every game, now either have to pay gems or watch more videos is joke. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — I paid and now the game doesn’t work *2020-03-08, version 1.0.2* The only way to get gems is to watch ads. I paid to stop the ads in between games. Now I can’t get gems either. I can only buy gems to play. This game is broken ### 1/5 — Horrible execution *2020-03-06, version 1.0.2* The concept for this game is pretty good, but you can’t even play against real players and have to keep watching ads to play games against the computer... No thanks ### 1/5 — Problematic system and unable to report issues *2020-02-05, version 1.0.2* I could report issue so had to bring it up here and down vote the game. The diamond system to play and earn when you win you earn star?? One of the game the opponent and I both got the same exact thing Pair of King, Pair of Queen, Shared 2. But the opponent got the point..... That’s suppose to be a tie and made me lost the game. Until I get compensation I’ll leave this 1 star ### 1/5 — Could be a 5 star game *2019-12-20, version 1.0.2* Like The concept of game but the running out of diamonds does not make sense to me when stars are the reward earnings. Pick 1 and stick with it. Can only play a hand full of games before having to watch countless videos. Make it win and earn diamonds. Will be deleting the game. ### 1/5 — Money grab *2019-10-13, version 0.11.4* I’m not watching an ad just to get diamonds so I can play. You need to make it so you can play without having to watch ads ### 1/5 — Review *2019-09-20, version 0.11.4* Good game, but you should win diamonds for wining a match not just stars. You either have to watch ads to gain diamond or purchase them. Also way too many ads. ### 1/5 — Why pay for no ads *2019-09-18, version 0.11.4* Paid for no ads and if I want anything extra I have to watch ads. Thanks a lot ### 1/5 — Gems *2019-08-16, version 0.11.4* You need gems to play, but the only way to get more gems is to either watch ads (doesn’t always work) or pay to play. Great game overall, just don’t expect much unless you want to continuously watch ads or constantly spend money. ### 1/5 — Ads despite ad free version! *2019-08-12, version 0.11.4* This is a really fun game, but what’s the point of getting the ad free version if I still have to watch ads to get the diamonds that allow me to play? I feel ripped off! ### 1/5 — Premium Currency Just to Play *2019-07-29, version 0.11.3* Very fun game, but it costs 3 gems to play a game. You get gems by, you guessed it, giving them money. Or you can get some free ones by watching ads. But every time I attempt to do that, it says there’s no ads available, and it’s definitely not due to a connection issue. Don’t waste your time ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Poker pocket *2019-12-09, version 1.0.2* How do you get a new avatar? I’ve been playing a long time and no new avatar. Help ### 5/5 — Poker pocket *2019-09-24, version 0.11.4* Fun game too many ads ### 5/5 — I wanna play my wife!! *2019-09-08, version 0.11.4* Make it so you can do play other people. Please!!! ### 5/5 — Poker *2019-06-27, version 0.9.9* Great game! Still learning the strategy! ### 5/5 — Good game *2019-06-10, version 0.9.7* So far it’s a good running game. ### 4/5 — Cool Premise *2019-09-20, version 0.11.4* But I hate the diamonds and stars. Pick one currency. If it cost 5 diamonds to play, the winner should get 10 diamonds. That way the winners wouldn’t have to watch a thousand ads just to enjoy the game... ### 4/5 — Great game but ads shoved down your throat *2019-08-09, version 0.11.4* It’s a great game but you play agains computers which isn’t bad. Against real people would be great!. Tons of ads though. BUT YOU GUYS NEED TO FIX the diamonds from disappearing! After I voluntarily watch an ad my diamonds are gone , THEN I have to watch another one for 5 diamonds :( . Not very happy. ### 3/5 — At least try *2022-03-09, version 1.1.1* This could be a fairly fun game if they would even try. It is set up to pretend you’re playing against other people—you’re not. You’re also not playing against AI. Sometimes, your “opponent” will just place cards at random and it sucks—especially since you have to watch videos for every stinking game. The worst? The video system is glitchy and sometimes it can take several seconds to get anything other than a message that says “No video available”. As if. ### 3/5 — Great Potential *2020-01-07, version 1.0.2* The game has great potential but once your gem runs out you are forced to watch ads in order to play again. Devise a new system where you can wager gems, get gems for returning days, winning matches, and/or gifting, and develop a method of playing with other people, that are not bots. This game is great and love playing it but I don’t want to spend 30 min watching ads to play a few hands. ### 3/5 — Ok *2019-10-25, version 1.0.0* Love the game super fun but run out of gems to fast. Sorry but I’m not they type to pay for a little game... and it won’t let me watch videos for gems it says they are unavailable. But the game is great otherwise. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
