And don’t even get me started on how many hands you may as well not even play because it’s just the computer players slinging cards and your hand is completely irrelevant, or how easy it is to bait the computer into shooting the moon in hearts. How often in a game of euchre does your opponents get dealt 4 alones in a row? How often do you get 3 alones in a row and the computer immediately calls off making your hand useless because it’s the 9, 10, queen and bowers in the other color? With this app, it’s all the time. It has no strategy, is easy enough to learn and predict, and, worst of all - and this is where the frustration really comes in - it’s solution to ‘balance’ is to deal you increasingly unplayable hands for extended durations until the computer has won a few games to make the win/loss percent back in acceptable variance. This thing knows the rules of a game and that’s it.

Want an app that actually has some elegance and strategy to its programming? Pffft, keep looking. Want an app that has a lot of card games with limited ads? Okay, cool, this one has that. I did play a game of “Yatzy”, it was fun. I still have to try the board games, I can’t wait to try out chess and backgammon. Looks okay, but best cribbage game for iOS is cribbage pro (no ads).īonus is the other games. I agree with other reviews, partner is aggressive early, but won’t play off properly to avoid bags. The few games I played, the computer partner played everything correctly. Skill level is similar or better than a lot of hearts games. The computer does hold to prevent you from running the table.

I shot the moon and made it 12 times in those games, computer opponents only 3 times, they could be a little more aggressive. (The add free version will get the 5th star) Although the adds are quick to cycle, I’d pay cold hard cash to avoid.
