### 2/5 — Update has rendered the game useless

*2025-11-27*

This was a wonderful game for many years until the update. The game no longer works.

### 3/5 — from "pro" to ads

*2025-11-25*

I paid for this game as a pro version because it was ad free. After many happy years of playing it started locking up on launch. The only fix was to uninstall and reinstall the game with apparently a new version that includes ads, despite the fact that I paid for this game. Not cool.

### 3/5 — Playing against yourself

*2025-11-13, version 8.0.3*

When you play the game long enough it picks up on how you play and starts playing the exact same strategy as you. You are not playing the computer. You’re trying to beat yourself.

### 3/5 — As integration is a mess

*2025-10-24*

The Scopa gameplay is great, but the ad integration (which cannot be avoided) is a buggy mess, which has a significant negative impact on the gameplay 😟

### 1/5 — 2019: Gee u actually updated? 2025: I repeat “u actually updated?” U still LIE

*2025-10-18, version 8.0.0*

10/16/25 UPDATE of MY REVIEW 



Orig reviewDidnt even realize there WAS an update because tho you claim ro “update the app REGULARLY” u failed to do so for a 2 year period!  

Let me guess, u added more ads? Even for pro users?

### 1/5 — What a joke!!

*2025-09-30, version 7.0.2*

Chi a programmato questo gioco è una testa di minkia   Tanto per dirla pulita!

### 1/5 — This game is worthless.

*2025-04-19*

Worthless game.

### 1/5 — Get one where you play other people

*2024-12-01, version 7.0.2*

Playing against the computer on this one is a joke. Just so happens to always have the right cards at the right times to make this game not even close to giving the feeling of playing a real game

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2024-01-06*

To bad you can’t pay a fee for no adds.  Sitting there watching some other stupid game being played that you have to wait for stinks.

### 1/5 — Trash

*2023-07-28*

Download the app, start the app and have an ad before I see the game? Complete trash, instantly deleted, epic fail

### 2/5 — Poor game mechanics

*2021-10-30*

Whatever algorithm this game uses for gameplay is out of whack. There’s no discernible difference between easy and difficult settings, the opponent almost always gets the settebello and no matter what style of play you use it almost always wins. I’ve been playing this game since I was a child and I can tell you it does not feel like real gameplay at all.

### 2/5 — Gee u actually updated?

*2021-06-14*

Didnt even realize there WAS an update because tho you claim ro “update the app REGULARLY” u failed to do so for a 2 year period!  

Let me guess, u added more ads? Even for pro users?

### 1/5 — Missing essential features

*2021-05-28*

Numerous basic features missing

### 1/5 — Can’t play opponents online.

*2021-03-10, version 7.0.2*

Everything I try, it gets hung up and does not execute in finding another player

### 1/5 — Worse ever!

*2026-04-09*

The way it was programmed is a total mess!!!!  Compliments!!

### 1/5 — App Won’t Start

*2026-03-22*

I paid for the Pro version with no ads on three of these apps.

Now if I restore my purchase, none of my Scopa Apps will run!

Dishonest!

Scopa Pro, Briscola, Asso all will not run.

Used to be great.

### 1/5 — Offensive and inappropriate ads

Recently the ads playing with the app is offensive and inappropriate

### 1/5 — This game is worthless.

*2025-11-19, version 8.0.3*

Worthless game.

### 1/5 — Why Ruin what Works

*2025-10-28*

I have been playing Scopa Pro for years and have loved it! I don't understand why the developers would ruin a perfectly good game. The drop down "Its your turn," and the fading out of cards is both distracting and annoying. The game was perfect the way it was and now it's terrible. I don't think I will be playing it anymore. If you are thinking about buying this game, DON'T!!!

### 1/5 — App Won’t Start

*2025-10-26*

None of my Scopa Apps will run now!

Used to be great.

### 1/5 — Paid for ad-free and now I get ads.

*2025-10-24, version 8.0.2*

I paid for the app. It stopped working last week. Uninstalled and installed again—now there’s ads! In pro mode, Sette-Bello almost always won by the app and multiple sequential scopa’s by the app. It appears deliberate. Very disappointed with this version. I’d like my money back or at least the ad-free version I paid for.

### 1/5 — La Scopa e

*2025-10-20, version 8.0.0*

Incredible

Lots of fun to play! I do wish there was a pro version without ads.

I’ve played your version of the game for many years, but it no longer opens on my iPad.

### 5/5 — It good

*2021-04-13, version 7.0.2*

Refer to title

### 5/5 — OK

*2021-01-18*

Doesn’t shuffle the cards well. You will get a lot of hands with 2 or 3 identical cards with your opponent. It’s a lot of fun though.

### 5/5 — Better than learning from Nonno!

*2021-01-12, version 7.0.1*

Like the real game but better. Great passing time and love the change of decks. Can now play Sicilian Scopa as Nonno taiUght me 45 years ago!

### 5/5 — Scopa pro

Excellent game, just wish I could play against real players

### 5/5 — Every Italian should play

*2021-01-07*

Great game, fun and frustrating at the same time. Too many ads though.
