What other people have been saying about Cribbage With Grandpas:
"It’s a well-designed mobile card game, but the real stars are still the grandpas. Grandpa looks down at his cards while thinking, then back up at you when talking. He falls asleep when you take too long to play. He makes little rhymes while counting his crib. He brings the game to life in ways a username on a background never could. We couldn’t have cared less about cribbage before, but now we love Cribbage With Grandpas."

Very cute

Clean looking and fun. Cribbage is a game I’ve never played before but this makes it easy to get into :) the character creator is also pretty cool! (Shouts out to Juice McElroy for the rec) One thing that would make it more interesting would be strategy suggestions. I might not be getting the full experience bc my grandpa is set to average but sometimes I feel like I’m just playing aimlessly
Some are hard to please...

A fine game with a thoughtful play interface. I like it. Seems to me (with a 150 or so plays under my belt) that the AI programming is right on. I setup thee opponents with increasing “cribbage skills” and their play gets better - like humans do.
LOVE the game but.....

This game is great because I get to create my opponents choose their personality traits and their amount of skill which is good because I’m a beginner. The problem is that this game is extremely frustrating. If I get a hand with 29 points the grandpa still wins. It’s almost impossible too beat the grandpas unless you put them on the lowest skill level which is just boring. So yeah other than that problem I would definitely recommend getting this game.
Thankful for my virtual Grandpa

As corny as it is, I love having a virtual grandpa to play cards with. We’re currently under quarantine. My “grandpa” is someone to at cribbage with. I was able to have fun creating his features. I like that I count my own cards, which helps with my cribbage skills. Thank you for making this game!
So wonderful

What a charming way to learn and get better at cribbage ❤️ I had not played before and now I’m not terrible, and it was such a fun, warm way to learn
Great game!

Very fun and extremely reliable. I have played over 1000 games and had it lock once, support took care it right away. It’s fun playing with your own Grandpa. He gives advice on play (although he doesn’t always follow the “don’t lead with a five unless you really know what you’re doing”.) He throws Dad jokes at you too - my only suggestion is that he could use more joke material!
Great idea

A lot of fun. Could be much improved with better programming to reflect more realistic Cribbage hands. This game seems to go in extreme cycles of incredible hands to very poor hands dealt, that are not representative of real games. When this happens, it’s almost impossible to use realistic strategy during the count up to 31 with the opponent being able to score points on nearly every card played by the opponent. Overall, the game is entertaining except for this issue.
