I am a newbie

Great app. Just learned and the app has been a great resource and help

Frustrating to play vs Computer

The opposing computers meld first consistently, especially when you have to get 180. It feels rigged and very frustrating.

Great play

Enjoy practice

It really is REAL canasta!!

Beginner here!! Really enjoying this app to practice the lessons I’ve learned!! It has definitely expanded my game!!

Sharpens play

I am new to the game. It improves my strategy. Keeps me following the rules. Fun!

Canasta is REAL and FUN.

New to the game so this app is the perfect companion to help build my knowledge of how to play. Playing with computers right now, but looking forward to finding my friends on the same app and playing with them. So many opportunities to play and learn. Great app!

So Frustrating

I had to quit playing with this app. Your partner is also your opponent. Or a moron. Either way, partner plays and discards in favor opponent. Too frustrating

10x better than the other canasta app

This is a great app that simulates real world play. I see some other people in here complaining about the computer always getting better cards. It seems like that would be an absurd tactic by the developer and people are just being a little foolish about those comments. My wife and I have friends that we play with online. It’s amazing that you can talk to them through the app while you’re playing. Really enjoy this app.

Unfair AI

The computer BOT version is rigged. AI gives unfair advantage to their team. Common to see opening with WILDS, picking just the right card to pick up the pack on the last card of the game etc etc. It used to be fun but now just frustrating. Save your $$ or only play it with humans!

Unbalanced unfair

The advanced partner is totally clueless. Definitely a beginner. It holds on to aces when the opposition is down to 1 card. Constantly gives away the deck. Holds on to wildcards forever. The other partners go down first, 90% of the time. They get joker canastas 4x more than us. Isn’t there a way to get a real advanced partner? There are more problems, too

Good app if you have some knowledge of the rules

Would be beneficial for newer players if there was a way for the imputed to help you figure out which special hand you should/could be going after.

Great practice and fun

Easy to use and great practice. I’m new to Canasta. This has really helped my game!

Unfair AI makes the game impossible

I’m extremely frustrated with this app. The AI partner is consistently weak and clueless, making it impossible to play at an advanced level. Meanwhile, the computer opponents often get unfair “special hands”—like seven pairs including a wild pair—while I am never able to claim the same hand, even when I have similar cards. The AI setup is completely unbalanced, and it makes the game feel unfair and frustrating rather than fun.
If you’re looking for a challenging, fair Canasta experience, this app is not it. The AI desperately needs adjustment for skill level and fairness.

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON A MONTHLY SUBSCRIPTION FOR A RIGGED GAME

If I could I would give it negative stars. The game is rigged where your opponents win most of the time. It’s disgusting that I pay for a monthly subscription for a RIGGED GAME. Please be warned. Why should I pay $6.99 monthly for a game that I rarely win at. I wrote to the company days ago (they said they would get back to me with 24 hours; I hate liars. I’m deleting my subscription right now.

Amazing Graphics

No other Canasta App holds a candle to this one incredible!!!!

Dumb computer partner

The opponents go down first, have more joker canastas, 95% of the time. My partner always gives away the pack and also signals 7s and aces often which leads to me throwing mine in. It’s like playing against 3 players!

fun

This is a very relaxing way to learn.

Addicting

So much fun

Terrible- always waiting for app to refresh

Always waiting for the game to refresh. It never happen with any other game or app I use. I am so frustrated waiting for the game to refresh all the time I am thinking of cancelling.

Partner BOT throws the game every time

I was liking it at first, but now my opponent BOT is throwing bad cards in which the opponents get the pile all the time
