### 2/5 — So glitchy

*2026-09-01, version 2.8.0*

It glitches so much it just freezes for like 30 seconds :(

### 3/5 — Unrealistic and Unreliable

*2026-08-31, version 2.8.0*

I believe the hands that are dealt are unrealistic to a physical game of spades. I find that my hands are extraordinarily weak. I also have learned that my partner, who is built into the program, is unreliable. I often have to bid low to ensure that we make our bid.

### 3/5 — Too many Ads

*2026-08-31, version 2.8.0*

Love this game just hate how most of the ads hold my game hostage. It causes me to lose interest and a game that should be complete in a few minutes takes sometimes days to finish.

### 3/5 — Fraud

*2026-08-31, version 2.8.0*

This particular game play against you.

### 3/5 — Too many commercials

*2026-08-31, version 2.8.0*

Way too many commercials

### 5/5 — Optimal spades game‼️

*2026-08-30, version 2.8.0*

4-year MOBILITY player And I love the fact that I’m playing internationally. I chose the hardest level and I don’t want to jinx it. Let’s just say I’m doing well and enjoying it with laughter and aha moments some busts every day

### 3/5 — Questionable fairness

*2026-08-30, version 2.8.0*

I have found instances where it was obviously rigged, but it’s definitely the best available spades on the App Store.

### 3/5 — Built in delays

*2026-08-30, version 2.8.0*

If you play offline to avoid ads, after some time you get a one second delay during rounds. After multiple games these delays become longer - up to 10 seconds - and more frequent. Great game, but they try to force you to either pay for ad-free or to watch the ads. Building in time delays to inconvenience offline players is a real jerk move. Bad form!

### 5/5 — Quality

*2026-08-30, version 2.8.0*

Addicting

### 5/5 — Competition

*2026-08-30, version 2.8.0*

I really am enjoying this game, I have tried several different spade games and couldn’t find players that could challenge me and keep me on my toes but with this game I have. I love that we can talk back and forth to one another and have a great time.

### 3/5 — No learning curve. No logic to leads and play.

*2026-08-29, version 2.8.0*

Hands tend to be pretty balanced and play of cards is predictable. Should have levels..
Also, despite your claim, there are no multiplayer games. Watch a 30 second ad, and then play, you claim. After 80 secs of loop gambling ad, you are redirected..back into the loop.
Going to try another app.
Still playing. But still no multiplayer games.
Dealer should be indicated on board. Use a “D”.

### 3/5 — Global standings

*2026-08-29, version 2.8.0*

### 5/5 — Worthy Opponent

*2026-08-29, version 2.8.0*

Great game - just wish I could text in the game.  Would love to tell some people how to play correctly!

### 5/5 — Good way to pass the time

*2026-08-29, version 2.8.0*

Way too many ads!  I’m almost at 9k points tho. 8/28/2026!

### 5/5 — Make different kinds of emojis

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2026-08-30, version 2.8.0*

The game goes to an add after every round. They include TEMU and other known scam sites.

### 1/5 — Spade

*2026-08-30, version 2.8.0*

Bad

### 1/5 — The bots?!?

*2026-08-29, version 2.8.0*

I’ve been playing this app for now 2 years, so I know if the developers change the difficulty of the bots. Why when I NIL, my teammate is throwing off when they can break with spades. With them throwing off, we never make our bid when I bid NIL. Even the bot opponent does the same to its teammate when they throw a high card. They would break with spades. Change the bots difficulty back! They playing like noobs and causing us not to make our bids!

### 1/5 — Game ok but need more excitement

*2026-08-28, version 2.8.0*

Need more work

### 1/5 — Cheaters

*2026-08-27, version 2.8.0*

I had made 81 and they had made 50 so how did that happen there’s only 13 tricks. They realized what they had done and put us back to 7. I’m going to put this game on Facebook and tell everyone what cheaters you are

### 1/5 — Constantly crashes

*2026-08-26, version 2.7.8*

Used to be great but constantly crashes and freezes at least every second round

### 1/5 — Wrong score

*2026-08-26, version 2.7.8*

We made our bid and should have had 309 they give us 54  the opponents went back 140 they only took 40 away so why the cheating no one wants to play a game that cheatsI bid 7 and my score was given to out opponents

### 1/5 — I love this game BUT

*2026-08-25, version 2.7.8*

This is the best Spades app out there BUT IT CHEATS! After about the hundredth time, (I’ve been playing it on this app for years) when I play a low card and my opponent has bet Nill, by the time it goes around to my opponent’s member, and the Nill member still show the highest card of suit being played, it’s team member triumphs with a spade. I’m always 95% sure the Nill’s player still has a card of the same suit, but it still trumps it and gets away with it!  This time, it was too much, and the cheating caused me to lose! Has anyone else had this problem?

### 1/5 — No more levels

*2026-08-23, version 2.7.8*

You need to create more levels

### 1/5 — Cheating!

*2026-08-22, version 2.7.8*

I have been playing now for a few weeks, with computer generated partners. I was enjoying the game till I noticed that the other players were cheating. In the game you have to follow suits but they would throw out a spade and then the very next card would be the one supposedly should have been played before you’re not supposed to renig. It’s all setup for the computer not you. It sucks and very disappointing. I have read your comments but its no help to all of these players just like me still disappointed as the problem obviously isnt warranted you to fix it properly. When you tell me its all sorted I will come back to play it and hopefully enjoy your game.

### 5/5 — Very Cute

*2026-08-31, version 2.8.0*

I’m impressed with the programming of this game.  The partner makes wise cracks, apologizes for overbidding, and comments on my moves.   Lots of fun.
