### 4/5 — Almost perfect

*2020-10-24, version 1.1*

The app is a little buggy for me. I payed for shuffle and everything works, but sometimes the zoom does not work and occasionally the “press and hold” to combine and flip a group of cards does not work.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2020-05-03, version 1.1*

Awful app. Can’t invite friends

### 3/5 — Needs option for horizontal

*2020-04-09, version 1.1*

Developers! Can you make it possible to flip the card table to horizontal view when I rotate my phone? Need more width on the table. Thanks!

### 1/5 — Has potential, but not finished

*2020-03-29, version 1.1*

This app doesn’t even work for anything. It has so much potential. Deal doesn’t deal at all. You can’t delete extra cards from the table. Functionality is a mess, but it’s pretty!

### 1/5 — Game instructions

*2020-03-21, version 1.1*

Can’t get the Game Center multiplayer game to work. Invitation sent and received but just spins so not connected. 

Need to know how to deal to each player so all cards not shown to every player. More instructions required.

### 1/5 — Couldn’t use

*2019-07-22, version 1.1*

Just says you were disconnected from the game every time I try to join a local game

### 1/5 — Underhanded don't click!

*2015-07-03, version 1.0.1*

It will ask you for your password and not say they are charging $1.99 to unlock. Crashes and doesn't work with gamecenter at all.

### 1/5 — Had to pay to shuffle the deck.

*2015-05-19, version 1.0.1*

Don't play this garbage.

### 1/5 — Horrible app

*2015-01-18, version 1.0.1*

This app was hard to use and frustrating. I do not recommend it.

### 5/5 — Great Concept and Implementation

*2013-12-08, version 1.0.1*

YES There is NO other app like this on the App Store, you can play any game with cards!!!! ++++1
