Not for me

Cards are not dealt randomly and hands are not played correctly.

Pathetic

Whoever wrote this game has no experience playing the game. Many,many flaws.

Worst sheepshead app

Not only do they have the computers playing dumb, they have a system where you seldom get to pick because of poor trump.
Biggest problem is they will play two hands in a row that are same cards as the previous one. To top this off, it can’t add!
Pickers who should have lost..win. Leasters the same.
I gave this a 1 but it doesn’t deserve it. I’m off!

Not bad

It’s a standard 5 person Jack of diamonds partner game. Good way to learn.

On the downside, if I switch to a different app and come back, it sometimes restarts. No option to save the game.

I don’t think the developer is keeping up with it. I emailed him a bug report over 2 years ago, and he never got back to me and never fixed it. So, if you are lucky enough in a leaster game to take a 0 point trick as your only trick, you loose.
