NO, I want to continue with what I have thank you. Don’t spoil a good game! ### 4/5 — Excellent Game spoiled a little by timing of adverts *2022-05-30* Great game with varying difficulty levels. Rules not quite the same as board game but does not spoil playability in fact probably improves it. Would give it 5 stars if adverts were less intrusive at critical times ### 4/5 — Longtime Player *2022-04-16* I love playing the game Rummikub since I was a kid but no one ever wants to play with me. This is my solution till I find another victim. Though, on here I lose a lot more than real life. Meh ### 2/5 — Pup Rummy *2021-09-21* This used to be a good game but now it keeps freezing, or rather, at the end of a game the next games tiles don’t come up. Have had to delete and reload the app many times. Won’t bother next time it does it. ### 2/5 — Always freezing. *2020-12-30* Like the game but get fed up with it always freezing and having to turn off iPad completely to get it back. ### 3/5 — Rum pup *2020-10-31* I have played and enjoyed Pup Rummy for quite a while now—it’s been one my go-to games for when I needed a calming break from stressful situations. However, I’m sadly going to be forced to uninstall it, because I just can’t get rid of the poker ad—no matter what I do, I end up with a screen I can’t get out of. I’m going to miss Pup Rummy—it’s one of a few games I can still play on my older tablets—but there are lots of other games, and they will serve the same purpose. ### 3/5 — Black screen *2020-10-13, version 2.2.7* The app periodically goes black screen and I have to delete and reload the app. Like playing the game but very frustrating always having to do the above. ### 4/5 — Great game *2020-01-09* Excellent game with good implementation - only thing recently is that it’s stopped working (freezes on splash screen) when the phone is in Aeroplane Mode, which is the only time I really play it, so if a small update could fix that it would be perfect. ### 4/5 — I like the game but froze up *2019-12-04, version 2.1.27* The screen froze unable to reload or start up again ### 4/5 — Cheater cheater pumpkin eater! *2019-09-12, version 2.1.27* I’ve been playing this app for a couple years and have I really loved it even though I’ve always suspected it of cheating. Of course I couldn’t prove it but today it absolutely cheated. I swapped a five of diamonds and played my turn then next turn I drew a five of diamonds! C'mon! Cheating is bad enough but you gotta be sneakier than that or I’m definitely gonna have to find another game to love. Shame on you... ### 3/5 — Uses 3 of a kind too often *2019-08-02* In some games the other player uses three of a kind for the whole entire game and that makes it not very much fun. When you play with Michael,the computer, he plays mostly with three of a kind and it’s not fun. Boring and uneventful not worth wasting your time. ### 5/5 — William *2019-04-27, version 2.1.27* You can win by taking penalties most of time . Then when the pile is getting down let the computer win by drawing only once . When the pile is empty you can usually go out with more than 30 tiles in your hand ### 5/5 — 🎵🎵🎵🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎵s *2018-10-31* I absolutely love this app/ game it’s a game in real life but, because I’m colorblind and legally blind a lot of things are hard now like playing rummikub or reading and no I didn’t chose to be legally blind like others they chose it. I was born with it ### 3/5 — Good game but... *2018-03-25* The game is good but as mentioned by other users the computer can somehow use the joker on illegal moves. Kills the joy of playing, knowing your opponent can cheat. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Worst for ads *2025-10-29* Ruined. Start of each game has ads that need to have airplane mode on to stop. ### 1/5 — After update and years of playing, plus+ is gone *2023-08-03* I have had this game for years now with premium/plus+ and after the last update, it erased my tables and says I don’t have premium/plus+ a shame developers did that ### 1/5 — Used to love *2023-03-30* Open the free version today to play, and in spite of declining the offer of some free jigsaw , I was unable to open the game, shame ### 1/5 — ads ruin the app *2022-06-10* the adds keep hanging up. you cant remove the ad when its done showing. can not return to puprummy. had to delete the app to turn off the ad. ### 1/5 — Black screen *2020-12-28* So far I have deleted and reloaded this twice. I shall not bother again. It is a great game and I really enjoy playing it, even with the adverts, but now all I am getting is a black screen all the time. Of course, this may be due to the signal but it doesn’t seem to affect the other games I play. ### 1/5 — Don’t Like *2020-05-28* Too many advertisements and a little boring ### 1/5 — Ruined the interface *2016-12-07, version 2.0.7* The latest updates have turned a pleasant game into a bug of a pain. I'm looking elsewhere for a different version. ### 1/5 — Freeze up *2016-11-26, version 2.0.4* Why is this game freezing up? I have been playing the game for some time now, but today it freezes every time I play. ### 1/5 — Since update *2016-11-08, version 2.0.0* I really hate the idea that we cannot play a game for free. I understand that the aim of the game is to make money, but still. I loved this game but since the update, if you don't buy the product ou get adds every turn you play. You just lost a player, a non-payable player you might say, but a player none the less. ### 1/5 — Freezes and will not unfreeze *2015-02-17, version 1.3.35* Deleted and reinstalled, reboot, robot after delete band again after re install.......was good game but after I finally got it to unfreeze, it froze again later. Forget it. Try another app of this game. Rummicub isn't great game this app cannot be played if frozen! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Well Done! *2023-08-17* Nobody around here plays cards. This is well put together and waaay better than nothin’ 🤩 ### 5/5 — Pup Rummy *2023-08-11, version 2.3.26* Love it. ### 5/5 — Lots of fun *2023-02-22* It my fav. I’ve been playing for almost a year and it’s my go to game! ### 5/5 — Pup Rummy *2022-12-06, version 2.3.7* Addictive A Texan ### 5/5 — Very simple and does the job *2022-10-24, version 2.3.7* I dont think Ive ever managed to find the real rummykub game app until I found pup rummy. It’s simple and has different difficulty settings. Happy with it. ### 5/5 — Great game. Minimal advertisements *2022-10-18* I don’t know what these people are talking about in other reviews about the game cheats, or how the joker is used by the game is inappropriate. I’ve never experienced any problems with playing this game. I do know that there are other ways of playing, with way more strict rules about how do use the joker, but this is the most open easy way. You can use the Joker any way or any where you want, replace it with the same tile it’s already being used as, or switch it out completely. Easy game to play and fun with minimal advertisements! ### 5/5 — Excellent Game *2022-05-19* Have had this app on my iPad for a while now and never had any problems. Very addictive, easy to play and keeps brain active. ### 5/5 — Very fun & relaxing game! *2022-04-28* I absolutely love Pup Rummy!!! Some games come & go or I can get bored of. Pup Rummy allows me to solve puzzles and there are always challenging moves that give me that omg feeling when I solve them. It’s a very standard version of the game but what sets this app apart from others is it’s ability to let you try all your ideas against a computer and make a complete mess of the board and undo what you did by clicking the back button over & over OR by giving up that turn which gives you 3 more tiles… Sometimes those extra tiles help you make the complex moves you haven’t been able to do… I’ve always loved Rummy since I was a kid and now I get to challenge myself without boring others waiting for their turn. You also don’t get a load of ads interfering! ### 5/5 — Ms. D *2020-11-10* Love this game. Very addictive. Passes the time and also a good thinking game. ### 5/5 — Great Game *2020-01-13* No need for internet to play this simple yet addictive game :) --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
