### 2/5 — No update, game won’t open

*2026-04-23, version 17.3*

I used to enjoy this one but now I get messages saying this app was outdated and would be removed by October 1st. Would I like to update. I click yes, am taken to the store but there is no update. So I cannot play at all.

### 4/5 — Changes in app

*2026-03-29, version 17.2*

I love this relaxing game or at least loved the way it was before. All of a sudden I get sounds when I start to play and when I finish the hand. I can’t seem to delete or stop the sounds which leads me to deleting the app sadly. I dislike noises in games. So sad!😩

### 2/5 — New sounds are awful!

*2026-03-29, version 17.2*

Can’t turn them off.  Why? Use to love playing this game in evenings to wind down.  Now the sounds jolt you awake.

### 2/5 — Ranking fehlt plötzlich

*2025-08-25, version 16.4*

Seit ein paar Tagen bin ich einziger Spieler und somit immer auf Platz 1. Langweilig. Letzte Woche hat es mit hunderten anderen Spielern wenigstens noch Sinn gehabt und sehr viel Spaß gemacht. Nun muss ich mir wohl leider was anderes suchen. Schade.

### 4/5 — Make The Computer A Better Opponent

*2025-08-17, version 16.4*

The computer keeps on giving me chances to clear cards from my stack.  Program better logic.

### 4/5 — Enjoying but could be better

*2025-08-14, version 16.4*

I am enjoying this card game. It would be nice if you don’t have to touch each card and then touch the spot you want each card to go to. I get the joker card needing to be told where to go but it would be nice to just tap the cards once  and have it go to the spot it clearly will go to, like a 2 going directly onto a 1. Also the graphics are fine but could be more appealing.

### 3/5 — Skido Spite is fun

*2025-06-16, version 16.4*

This game is fun and relaxing but during the game we have so many ads!!!

### 3/5 — The game is good but….

*2025-02-24, version 16.4*

I have played this game for years and it’s one of the cleanest ways to play Spite & Malace without all the levels and prizes and cartoon graphics that Skip-Bo now has. However I was forced to update and although it’s not the latest, it did seem an unnecessary update and the look wasn’t quite as nice. But the biggest problem is having an ad shoved down my throat in the MIDDLE of the game! It’s disruptive and rude. This wasn’t happening with my earlier version, in fact I don’t recall ANY ads. So although I would have given it a strong 5 stars once it’s now a shakey 3.  Can’t anyone perform an update without wrecking the app?

### 2/5 — Eigentlich gut aber das Ranking verdient null Sterne

*2025-02-22, version 16.4*

Das Spiel als solches ist gut gemacht und macht auch Spaß. Ich habe mich für die werbefreie Version entschieden und das hat sich echt gelohnt.
Aber leider hakt das Ranking. Man spielt endlos viele Spiele, sieht dann, dass man auf Platz 6987 ist, gewinnt das nächste Spiel auch und ist plötzlich zurück auf Platz 7548. Hier sollte deutlich nachgebessert werden. Man müßte nach jedem Spiel klar und deutlich erkennen können wieviel Punkte man bekommt, von welchem Platz zu welchem man gerutscht ist.

### 3/5 — Interruptions

*2025-01-04, version 16.4*

Great game but ads right in middle of game! Over and over. Ads should come at END of game.

### 3/5 — Update frustrating

*2024-09-27, version 16.4*

Love this game. Have been playing for years. Always a go-to app. I don’t like the new light-up card piles. It’s a deal breaker for me.

### 4/5 — Was the perfect wind down game app

*2024-09-24, version 16.4*

This has been the game I always play before going to bed because I was able to set the backdrop to a dark mode style and help wind down. When I’m bored I open the game up. This IS my default phone game in every scenario. Even when I’m binging some new puzzle game, this is what I turn to when I’m wanting to relax but not do anything specific. Way better than doomscrolling. 

However, with the new update the boxes light up. Which now serves as not only a guide/hint like in those OG solitaire pc games but they’re bright and obnoxious. And since this game is solely for my wind down time I have to give it 4 stars until there’s a way to have options letting me turn it off. 

Game play itself is great otherwise for a basic skipbo game. Which is why I prefer this app to the actual skipbo app.

### 1/5 — STOP HINTS

*2024-09-22, version 16.4*

I have loved playing this game but hate the updated version that shows hints where to place the cards. Please remove or allow them to be turned off as it is no longer fun to play.

### 1/5 — Die alte App war um vieles besser

*2024-09-17, version 16.4*

Dass die alte gut funktionierende App damals per update kaputtgemacht wurde ist kein guter Stil.
Die neue ist einfach eine Kathastrophe.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Stürzt ab beim Start

*2026-03-29, version 17.2*

Seit letzten Update stürzt die App bei jedem Start direkt ab.

### 1/5 — Love the game, but it won’t load anymore

*2026-03-27, version 17.2*

I love this game to play when I am bored. But for the last 3 days it won’t load. I open it and it immediately closes. Rebooted phone and killed the app. Nothing works. I also have free cards I bought that I can’t even use.

### 1/5 — Used to be great - now unplayable

*2026-02-18, version 16.4*

This game was a great way to play skipbo without all the annoyances of “modern” games. I would have been willing to pay to remove ads too except that with the update from the original “Skido”, not only do the computer players never block each others plays but always block yours…. The decks aren’t correct! I’ve seen cards played by others that were impossible to have been dealt based on cards showing on the board. The game appears to be generating random cards for each hand rather than randomizing the cards that should be remaining in the deck. Makes for very frustrating plays where I’ve watched another player play through 6 rounds of a 12 card while I had 8 of them showing in my hand, bank, and stock piles. Since a deck should only have 12 of each card… this isn’t possible. I don’t think it’s “rigged”, but I think it is not coded properly. Bummer. Will uninstall.

### 1/5 — Nervige Werbung

*2024-11-05, version 16.4*

Nach dem Updates ist das Spiel blöd geworden . Mindestens 3 Werbungen nacheinander diese kann man zwar wegdrücken dauert zwar ,denn Mann will ja weiter spielen, aber während des Spiels auch Werbung einbringen ,ist ein no Go.

### 1/5 — Paying for jokers? Dumb

*2024-10-25, version 16.4*

A vital part of the game is having the Skibo joker cards and this app makes you pay for them. I will be deleting this app as it is not a true resemblance of the game.

### 1/5 — Sorry changes!

*2024-10-10, version 16.4*

After the newest update, you have to hit close on the adds 4-5 times. Sometimes it closes the game out sending you to the App Store. Hate it now!

### 1/5 — New update

*2024-10-04, version 16.4*

Can you please remove the new update where whenever I select a card it lights up all the slots where it can go? Or at least please PLEASE give me a settings screen where I can turn it off? What’s the point of playing a game if it just plays itself in front of your eyes? This was my go to chill phone game before but this new feature really takes the joy out for me. I just can’t get used to it. I paid for ad free a while back because I played so much but now I haven’t finished a game since this new feature appeared because it bothers me so much :/ we gotta have a settings page that changes more than the background color and texture pls! If not I think I’ll just need to delete and move on to something else. No need to mess w a good thing!

### 1/5 — New update is terrible!

*2024-10-01, version 16.4*

Things were great until they changed the game to highlight where you should play.  What’s the point of playing if the system just tells you where to play.  How annoying!!   I will restart this game once they take that stupid option off.

### 1/5 — Poor

*2024-09-25, version 16.4*

Much better before the update!

### 1/5 — Not cool!

*2024-09-24, version 16.4*

Hey now! Don’t delete my review here! I paid this apps and I updated this app… omg it went awesome to horrible! Why did you add the ridiculous flashy border around the cards in red and green? Please get rid of these or add a feature to enable / disable the flashing borders then I will change 1 stars to 5 stars with sweet view! Guaranteed!

### 5/5 — Best app

This app makes my life better, worth living. Only thing keeping me going is knowing that it’s there for me at the end of the day. Thank you for creating this truly

### 5/5 — Such a fun app!

*2025-11-17, version 16.4*

The game itself is engaging and fun, and the icing on the cake is how reasonable the ads are!

### 5/5 — Fun group game

*2025-10-26, version 16.4*

Love this and play this all the time in deaf groups

### 5/5 — BRichardson

*2025-08-27, version 16.4*

This game is so habit forming. Enjoy playing it.

### 5/5 — Fun time

*2024-10-03, version 16.4*

I like this game, keeps me occupied and active ,it’s fun too. Better still if I win but everyone likes to win too.challenging

### 5/5 — Sudoku

*2024-09-27, version 16.4*

Best sudoku game app.   I play it everyday.   I love it.

### 5/5 — Thanks for adding multiplayer

*2024-09-16, version 16.4*

Now my mom and I can play together and we can score.

### 5/5 — Addictive

*2024-07-01, version 15.6*

Amazingly simple and addictive game

### 5/5 — Option for truly random no difficulty algorithm

*2024-05-25*

I like that somebody said the AI is cheating because I know it is. But it’s the algorithm that is determining the level of difficulty so if you could just turn that off so it’s totally random 100% then we’d be happy. Please total random shuffling of the cards. I mean I’m still beating you, but I know you’re cheating with your algo!

### 5/5 — Skido 2

*2024-03-15, version 15.6*

Très relaxant et bon pour le mental
