### 1/5 — Animals are now the players instead of humans! Can’t play this way.

*2023-02-08*

Can’t stand to look at animals playing against a human. Please change back to original with out animals!!! It was a fun game previously. Only 1 star now. I would give a 4 star previous 
Hey you1

**Developer response:** Version 3.1 will have an option for either people or animal icons. This should be out within a week. Thanks for the feedback!

### 1/5 — Frustrating

*2015-02-20*

This game is not like any real sheepshead I've played. The computer leads trump when it's not partner and doesn't play high trump to take tricks. This app is more frustrating than fun. Save your money.

### 2/5 — Bad players

*2023-11-24*

Overall fun to play but frustrating when players make stupid moves , like bury the high queen or lead it out when not the partner

### 2/5 — Kinda ok

*2015-12-13*

It's fun to play but the computer players will bury queens which makes no sense when they do and the non partners will lead trump when they have fail.  Needs a bit of work.

### 3/5 — A few glitches

*2026-01-08*

Decent app. It has the picker bury Queen of clubs, which throws things off but mostly plays logically. It doesn’t believe in points before power but at least that is arguable. Burying queens makes no sense

### 3/5 — Glitches

*2020-08-28*

I was dealt the Q of clubs and choose to be the picker. To my surprise another player was dealt the Q of clubs as well. I lost a hand to the same card!!

### 3/5 — Crashes on occasion

*2016-09-01*

For the most part it works fine. Occasionally it will crash during the middle of a hand. The hand being played is lost but the score is retained. Frustrating when it happens.

### 4/5 — Why jack of diamonds partner, if you win you don’t score as many points as picker

*2022-12-08*

I like the game! Just not sure why partner doesn’t score as many points

### 4/5 — Overall a fun app

*2021-12-05*

There’s an issue.  If you have all 3 fail aces, the app didn’t know how to handle.  It let me select what to bury but wouldn’t move on to let me bury or start play.   In this scenario, we play whoever takes the first trick other than the picker is partner.   Your call how you want to handle in the app 😊

### 4/5 — Good

*2020-03-25*

But you need to show who is Partner after it is disclosed, or at least have option. I know it is available in Scoreboard, but i’d like to see it on the playing board.
