Great Shanghai rumi game!

Don’t understand the dog training theme but still what I want in a Shanghai rumi game. One ad per game is super reasonable.

I LOVE THIS APP!

This is a wonderful app if you like the card game Shanghai! The dogs make me lol and I like how the slight adjustments in the game so it’s mobile friendly versus when you’re playing it in real life. Overall, a great app. It helps me when I’m feeling anxious. Also, the app founder replied to my emails asking to change some fonts so they were more accessible for readers. Thanks again!!

I have deleted and reloaded this app 2 times and it continues to do the same thing. It keeps jumping on the page and that gets annoying to the eyes. Can this be fixed. THANKS

Dislike January 2025 Update

I love this rummy game and play on my iPhone often, but really dislike the font change made in March 2025, makes cards really hard to see. Prior font was better.
