In the rules it mentions points but does not describe a point system. I was taught 5 points numbered cards 10 for face cards. 15 for aces unless used as a 1 in a 123 build.
I like the sleek new look of the app. I also like the revamp of the game selection. Not sure if this is a mechanic, but a suggested game may also be good
I love the app itself. The only issue that I have is that I would love them to have more game options. There’s not a lot of card games on there. Enough to satisfy me. But it could use a bit more. Most of the games that I know and love aren’t in the app. If not all. But great app itself! You should get it!
Can’t find rules for Gin Rummy, and others. Love that Gin Rummy is called out in the developers description of the app, yet the app has no rules for it. Seems limited. What is there is good though. Just needs more rules before I keep this on my phone. Let me know when you get those in there
I liked it. The games are fun but the shop icons didn’t seem to work. Overall a good app. Wouldn’t suggest it if you just want it to buy stuff quick, but really good way to learn new card games.
There are so many games on here for all ages. If your looking for a new game or arguing about the rules this is the place to go. I wish more people would download it. It’s so useful.
