Well Done!

I learned to play Skat from my wife’s family in Central Texas. This is a fair and challenging digital version of the game that has given me many hours of enjoyment.

Great game but translation needed

Skat is a famous German card game and this is a very comprehensive version. It was obviously created in German and then translated into English. Unfortunately much of the text is still in German and hasn’t been translated so it’s a bit inaccessible for non German speakers. It would be nice if the translation could be finished to bring this great game to a wider audience.

English

The last update is not good. I prefer the score screen after each round. Lets you know the score very clearly and offers easy replay. Why did you change it?

You change the language with the small profile symbol at the top right in the 'Einstellungen'. Have fun with Skat!

Nach wie vor sehr gut

Nachdem komischerweise die App aus unerklärlichen Gründen nach jedem Spiel einfror, habe ich das Spiel neu installiert. Soweit alles gut lediglich ist es nicht mehr möglich, dass die Anzahl der Augen, die man bereits gewonnen hat, sehen kann. Das finde ich sehr schade, da man jetzt selber mit zählen muss. Und das fällt mir alten Knochen Zwar nicht schwer, aber man könnte sich’s auch leichter machen.

Sie finden den Assistenten rechts unten direkt am Kartentisch. Tippen Sie auf die Glühbirne. Bei 'Zeige mir...' lassen Sie die Augen der Stiche mitzählen. Viel Spaß mit Skat und gut Blatt!
