Throw a card and an ad popped up. You lose focus when ads happen like that and can’t count suits being played. If you need to show ads to make a profit, keep them between hands, not in the middle of actual game play. ### 2/5 — Something wrong *2026-08-17, version 1.9.1* You updated the app and now an ad pops up in the middle of each game or in each hand. It’s annoying!! Please put the game back the way it originally was. ### 3/5 — Change program rules *2026-08-11, version 1.9.1* The rule for holding the ace of spades until the end sucks. Also, the computer players don’t consider how many are in the bag. It should be considered in the logic. ### 1/5 — Gotcha! *2026-08-06, version 1.9.1* The ad says no annoying ads, but you constantly have ads in this game. I believe the gotcha is what ads are annoying to who. If they say that their ads are not annoying then therefore they can show you whatever ads they want. ### 1/5 — Get ready to get cheated worst spades game ever *2026-07-31, version 1.9.1* Please don’t download worst thing I’ve ever downloaded honestly ### 1/5 — Too many advertisement over and over bad. *2026-07-29, version 1.9.1* Too many advertisement over and over bad ### 2/5 — Partner will piss you off *2026-07-27, version 1.9.1* I've been playing this game for awhile! It use to be pretty fun but i don't know what happened. My partner must be dumb or something. They bet way too much, they don't play their hand like a true spades player would. It's frustrating. Then your opponents apparently are pros and work well together. No way they got 4... FOUR.. Nil bids back to back. I'm about to find a new app. I just want it to be fun like it use to. But to win every time but it actually be competitive all around instead of it being like that for our team cause my teammate acts like they're novice. Why even pay for ads when the game is like that. SMH ### 3/5 — No menu *2026-07-26, version 1.9.1* It’s a nice play, but no rules or stats. 49.99 for not even the most basic of tools is too much for just no ads ### 2/5 — Not like real life *2026-07-25, version 1.9.1* This doesn't include the Big and Little Jokers, so how is it even simulating a real game of Spades? It's not. Further, partners cutting each other when they shouldn't and have plenty of other cards to play is annoying and stupid. ### 2/5 — Bots win *2026-07-18, version 1.9.1* I downloaded this and played several games and lost, because the bots are playing against you and have the better spades. Good luck playing this. It’s much better games out there. ### 1/5 — Adds *2026-07-13, version 1.9.0* The adds never stop playing. You literally have to exit out of the app after each hand. ### 1/5 — Terrible! *2026-07-10, version 1.9.0* The only orientation I can get is landscape. The pop up for me to tell how many tricks I think I can take covers up about 1/2 my cards! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Terrible *2026-08-29, version 1.9.1* The AI built into this is terrible. Instead of getting better and learning, it gets worse the more you play. ### 1/5 — “Partner”always overbids *2026-08-26, version 1.9.1* I’ve been playing this game for years and I always liked it. But the past month or so the partner that I play with, I know it’s a computer is always overbidding so it’s not even a fair game. ### 1/5 — Bonehead moves *2026-08-25, version 1.9.1* On numerous occasions I have seen one of the appointments bid nil and they are holding the ace of spades. On other occasions, I will be taking the trick and my partner puts a spade on it. Just recently one of the opponents bid nil and took a diamond trick with the queen of spades. ### 1/5 — 5 minute ad after one round *2026-08-25, version 1.9.1* Played not one game but one round and then had to walk through a 5 minute ad. Maybe longer, I never got out of it. I deleted the game. ### 1/5 — Waiting for a fix *2026-08-19, version 1.9.1* Couldn’t just play as an individual player only as a team, so deleted the app! ### 1/5 — Ads mid-hand??? *2026-08-17, version 1.9.1* Deleting because the game now interrupts your hand with multiple video ads. Unacceptable. ### 1/5 — Jerry *2026-08-17, version 1.9.1* Why advertise free with no ads, when ads appear after every hand ? You have no integrity or honesty. ### 1/5 — ADS *2026-08-15, version 1.9.1* I wanted to like it but the ads are overwhelming! If you don’t mind having to wait in between each hand then sure download. If not. PASS! Deleting now ### 1/5 — Dumb partner! *2026-08-13, version 1.9.1* Ugh, such a dumb partner who can’t read the room. It’s obvious , to win we need to bag the other team and my partner takes the bags to make us lose. Plus, terrible bids. Ads every TWO hands!! ### 1/5 — Don’t bother *2026-08-10, version 1.9.1* The game cheats meaning that it doesn’t play with a full deck and sometimes doubles the cards. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — I love that I get to play often with out constant updates. *2026-09-07, version 1.9.1* Well-done ### 5/5 — Spades *2026-09-04, version 1.9.1* Good game just wish it didn’t have do many ads ### 5/5 — Great game *2026-08-28, version 1.9.1* I play this game in middle of night ### 5/5 — ENJOY 💞❗️ *2026-08-09, version 1.9.1* I spend too much time playing. I need to learn discipline 🙏 ### 5/5 — Spades *2026-08-01, version 1.9.1* EXCITING !!! ### 5/5 — They cheat on the score *2026-07-10, version 1.9.0* They be cheating in the score and game ### 5/5 — Poor bidding *2026-06-29, version 1.9.0* I like this app because it counts the bags taken. However, the bots notoriously always underbid making it difficult to win (or even lose) without getting more bags than should be expected. The partner bot I play with bids one when holding aces plus high Spades card. It’s ridiculous. I sadly don’t recommend this version unless you know how to undercut a partner that isn’t very good. ### 5/5 — Love it *2026-06-28, version 1.9.0* I appreciate the game much ### 5/5 — Good job *2026-06-07, version 1.8.9* It’s so fun and I always have a good seet ### 5/5 — Spades *2026-05-29, version 1.8.9* Great game except NIL points --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
