### 2/5 — Lixo de embaralhamento

*2026-02-18*

A mudança de dificuldade da ia, na verdade só deixa as cartas q vc recebe cada  vez pior

### 4/5 — Great game!

*2025-07-23, version 3.12.1*

Too many ads, no way of getting rid of them, so I’m deleting the app.

### 3/5 — Le jeu triche 🤣

*2025-03-11*

Le jeu est bien fait et fluide. Effectivement il manque quelques règles dont j’avais l’habitude mais ce n’est pas très grave. Par contre, à chaque début de partie en mode contre l’ordinateur votre pioche est misérable (pas de 2 pas de tête couronnées et des doubles ou des triples mais très petit ) à tel point qu’il est impossible de gagner la première mise et il devient donc très difficile de sortir du « trouduc » donc à un moment on se lasse…

### 2/5 — Not realistic

*2025-01-24, version 3.12.1*

The cards felt are not realistic. The president most all the time gets good cards. That’s not realistic at all

### 4/5 — Un bon jeu

*2024-12-05, version 3.12.1*

Le jeux est vraiment agréable mais les publicités sont dérangeantes, j’aimerais payer pour l’application et en être débarrasser. Merci

### 4/5 — Best president game on the AppStore

*2024-09-10, version 3.11.0*

You can play against bots or online with friends or strangers or with your friends locally. The game has so many options of rules that can really add a lot of variety. The only downside are occasional adds between rounds.

### 2/5 — Missing features

*2024-07-28, version 3.11.0*

No ladders, can only play singles when starting, no choice of card to take

### 2/5 — Trucage

*2024-07-20*

Le jeu est très bien fait . Cependant , même avec l’ia faible , c’est quasi impossible de gagner une partie !!! La distribution des cartes est vraiment toujours favorable à l’ia !!

### 3/5 — Modifications souhaitées

*2024-02-11*

Celui qui n’a plus de cartes est président et non pas trouduc c’est la 4eme fois que ceci se produit, je suis très surprise.
Comme pour le tarot, il serait intéressant de pouvoir rejouer et de voir les plis etc. merci beaucoup.

### 4/5 — Great! Still some ruleset options missing. Hard AI.

*2024-02-10, version 3.11.0*

Hello! I’d like to see… 1) The 3 of spades reversal rule. Basically the lone 3 of spades beats the line joker. Example: 10, King, Ace, 2, Joker, 3 of spades. 3 of spades wins, and only in this scenario. 2) Suits. If I play 4-5-6 of clubs, someone else must play suits, but higher, such as 6-7-8 of hearts. Since the 8 was played, if playing the 8 clear rule, that would end the trick. 3) Downfall mechanic. If the president fails to be president again (so someone else empties their hand before the president) they are out of the round, all their cards are no longer in play. And they are Scum next round. Other than that I love how many options there are. The UI is great and the AI is very tough. I would recommend this app!

### 3/5 — Black Split Screen

*2024-01-04, version 3.10.0*

I love the game, but often the screen is split in two with one side black. I have to close the game and restart, bummer.

### 2/5 — Ugh

*2023-12-28, version 3.10.0*

Is it necessary to have an ad every 2nd hand!!

### 4/5 — Good Gameplay

*2023-11-20, version 3.10.0*

This is a well thought out app with plenty of customisation choices for layout, rules and game play. The game’s AI generally plays well and the interaction with live players is good.

Just one thing, though. I’m nearly 70 and find the values on the corners of the cards I prefer to play with hard to read at times. Any chance of an option to make these bold, perhaps?

In my opinion, the best choice currently available for this game.

### 4/5 — Jeu très bien, manque une option pour pouvoir couper

*2023-10-26*

Le jeu est très bien réalisé. Cependant, lors de parties « réelles» avec mes amis nous avons une règles qui nous permet de couper n’importe quand (soit avec une carte simple si on ne pose que des cartes simple, soit avec un double qui complète par exemple les tous les 7 quand on joue avec des doubles) et donc de terminer le pli. Si cela peut être ajouté se serait vraiment génial!

### 2/5 — I paid good money

*2023-08-12, version 3.10.0*

This app was a one time purchase, no ads game. Until they updated it with ads. I played this game for years. It’s frustrating.

### 2/5 — Learn to score

*2023-04-09, version 3.10.0*

If I’m president the most times in a game and have tied highest score, I’m the winner. Fairly simple concept.

### 3/5 — Adds have potential viruses

*2023-03-01, version 3.10.0*

No x to click and the cancel button takes you to a webpage in Vietnamese. Add was also Vietnamese. Be careful!

Game itself is fun!

### 4/5 — …

*2022-09-05, version 3.10.0*

Can’t complain about what’s here. The touchscreen controls are very nice, the visual aesthetic is simple but crisp, computer opponents provide me enough of a challenge to keep my interest, and the game itself is what you expect out of Scum. And while there are a fair number of ads, they’re shorter and less intrusive than you see in most free-to-play. There are a few rule customization options, which is always nice, although there are two more that are needed: 1. The option to use two decks of cards. 2. The ability to change everyone’s seating location based on the order everyone went out in the prior hand. The latter especially throws me for a loop when I’m vice president and West is President and I’m like, “Wait, why am I going 4th?” Maybe that’s a much more localized rule than I would have anticipated, but seat order and its relation to how a hand plays out feels very important to me. Other than those two things, no complaints.

### 4/5 — Good

*2022-08-25, version 3.10.0*

Kills boredom

### 1/5 — Jeu de M

*2026-05-18, version 3.12.1*

Jeu de MARDE, ne téléchargez PAS cette appli…. Les trophées disparaissent et on ne sait pourquoi et aucun avantage…. Perte de temps vraiment 
Je désinstalle

### 1/5 — disgusting

*2025-12-13, version 3.12.1*

the ads on this game are disgusting!!!

### 1/5 — Ads ads ads

*2025-04-27, version 3.12.1*

I rarely review apps but I am getting sick and tired of the ad based app development. I played the game for a couple hours and am now going to uninstall. Bring back the days of paying $6 for an ad free app.

### 1/5 — Create room doesn’t work

*2025-02-18, version 3.12.1*

Will not allow you to create a room. It’s gives you the option but then when people have joined, the option to start the room is not able to be clicked

### 1/5 — Scam Ads

*2024-11-15, version 3.12.1*

Game is good, but some of the ads they are using are straight up scams.  The “your phone is infected with viruses and here is a fake Google page to add legitimacy to the scam” type ads. If that’s the type of ad revenue they are okay with getting then they are scum bags.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2024-05-20, version 3.11.0*

Suddenly this app is filled with very long ads. Game is no longer enjoyable. I am ok with short ads but not the way it is now.

### 1/5 — Sorry

*2024-03-20, version 3.11.0*

What’s with these never ending ads! I get that you need ads but most apps are using ads that we, the players, can end rapidly! Your choice of offering to the provider of ads the opportunity to present ads of 30 seconds or more is totally not right. You need ads, but you also need players to look at the ads! I’m deleting you app!

### 1/5 — Online games doesn’t work even if you pay!

*2024-01-15, version 3.10.0*

Pathetic

### 1/5 — Impossible to play pairs/triples quads

*2023-11-08, version 3.10.0*

The game makes it impossible to choose pairs to play unless the opponents have already done so. I will hold the card and fumble around for 2 minutes and sometimes it gives me the option. Lost many’s times because it will instantly play 1 card instead of playing the set of cards I had

### 1/5 — Ich will keine Werbung!

*2022-04-07*

Warum muss man sich die Werbung unendlich lange anschauen. Die geht nicht weg 
Warum gibt es keine Option die App zu kaufen? Die App an sich ist sehr gut mit vielen Einstellungen nur die Werbung nervt   !

*2025-04-27, version 3.12.1*

### 5/5 — Adoro esse jogo!

*2022-03-29*

### 5/5 — Really?

*2021-07-15, version 3.9.2*

Do people not understand that if you turn wifi off the ads go away lol? So many ad complaints it makes me laugh

### 5/5 — I enjoy playing

*2020-10-25, version 3.8.0*

Mindless fun...wish I could buy an ad blocker though...too many, though they are only 5 seconds.

### 5/5 — Top

*2020-06-19*

*2020-03-09, version 3.8.0*

All in the title 😊

### 5/5 — JEU TROUDUC

*2020-01-28*

Le jeu est super 👍🏻 j’y joue pratiquement tous les soirs franchement génial 👍🏻 dommage que pour jouer à plus de 5 personne  la version est payante car franchement plus il y a de joueur mieux c’est ..... sinon globalement c’est super r a changé il n’y a pas de pub ou juste une ou deux mais vraiment il n’y en as pas( c’est rarissime )  ...sinon il mérite bien même très bien c’est 5 étoiles ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️❤️je vous le conseil très fortement c’est le best jeu

### 5/5 — Some rule changes

*2019-10-25, version 3.7.0*

I’ve been loving this app a lot, play it almost every day however I would make some changes.

In a new modern/japanese version of the game, it introduces (which I’d love to be included in the game):
-Using two decks for increased revolutions
-3 of Spades beats a Joker used without an eight
-Any double, triple, quad etc with a Joker can’t be beat unless using a 3 of Spades
-A Jack reverses the direction of the play, and vice versa when being played during a revolution
-Staircases, when 3 or more cards of the same suit (for example, 4, 5, 6 all of diamonds) can be played, and 4 or more makes a revolution. Staircases can be played on by any suit, but must be following the order of play (revolution included) so for example in a regular game, a staircase of 4,5,6, the following player may play any staircase above a 4. So a 5,6,7 or higher. Also if a Jack is involved in any staircase, it will send it the opposite way. Also, if an 8 is played in any staircase, it will automatically wipe the deck.
-Locking, when a single, double or triple etc (for example, 4 of diamonds, 4 of clubs, are played, and the following player plays a 7 of d and 7 of clubs it will lock that play to only doubles with those two suits). Same goes for singles, triples, quads or more. Also goes for Staircases, if two staircases of the same suit are played in a row it will lock to only that suit of staircase.
It took me way too long to make this so I hope you take it into consideration, also if I explained this terribly please let me know of any confusion.

Thanks :)
