Every time it comes back from an ad, the orientation changes to portrait and you can’t recover from it. You see half a game screen and there’s no way to go back or reorient it. You have to close the app and reopen it. Other than that it works fine. ### 1/5 — HORRIBLE *2017-06-26* This is the real game! ### 2/5 — I love 31! *2016-01-24, version 1* I love this card game!

What is the point of winning, if you don't get credit for it!? ### 5/5 — Awesome & Incredible! *2015-10-16, version 1* Last night I found this awesome game & from then I'm feeling happy to get this!
