Okay

Fun if you like the game Mille Bornes. Would like to have the option to see some animations when cards are drawn, just to slow the action down a bit. With a bit of polish would be a good game. Don't think the paid version would be worth 2 bucks based on this version.
So confused

Ok, I know how to play this game, been playing it for years with the actual cards, but when I try to play a GO, it will only go to the discard pile, so I assume it just automatically plays my go on my side, but doesn't cuz I never make any miles. Why won't it play my GO on my board side!?!?
Slow and awkward to use

I've played other versions of the same game concept and this is by far the worst. Absence of animations makes it difficult to play as you will not notice what the opponent has done or what card you just drew.
Better Than the Official Version, But Needs Work

I'm glad to be able to play Mille Bornes with the real rules: battle pile, one time through the deck, etc. For some reason, the official version recycles the deck, including played hazards, which turns it into a long, frustrating slog. I agree with a previous review that a little animation would help (or more sound effects), but I don't have trouble figuring out what has been played. It's usually obvious from the context. (If the opponent's battle pile has gone from a flat-tire hazard to a tire remedy, for instance, what else can the opponent have played?) What would help even more is if the player's cards were at the bottom of the screen, instead of the top. As it is, a right-handed player has to mostly cover the opponent's area with his hand to play his cards, and then withdraw it to see what the opponent played. And back and forth, the whole game. Also, I look forward to a version with more than two players. The game really gets going with three or four. UPDATE: One little glitch I've noticed... Sometimes when you pick up a card to drag to the discard, it turns into a different card. It turns back when you let it go, or finish discarding it, so I assume this is just a hiccup in the graphics somewhere. And one more comment... It would help if there were a pause (maybe a musical cue) between when the opponent wins, and when the score table comes up. As it is, you don't even get to see the opponent play its last card (or cards, if it played safeties). You can work out what cards they were, but it's still pretty abrupt. UPDATE 2: I've noticed an error in the rules. A "Coup Fouree" is supposed to happen only if you have the appropriate Safety in your hand when someone plays a Hazard on you. This app credits you with a Coup Fouree even if you acquire and play the Safety on a later turn, so long as you haven't yet remedied the Hazard.
Appreciate the effort, but can't figure it out!

I'm a lifelong Touring, Milles Borne card player and someone who thought that Rally 1000 for the Palm OS was one of the best apps ever designed. I know how the game is played, but, sadly, this app is unfathomable. I won't bother getting into interface glitches-- you can get trapped and not get key play info unless you quit the app and restart. Whatever built-in help there is (little or none) prevented me from using this. Swipe to the right to discard? Usually doesn't work. Double tap to play, often doesn't. Help for baffled users--not available. Users are much better off with 1000 Miles--a tour de force, with great game explanations built-in!
Love app. Does not work on ios9

Great app. Play all time but now since got 6s plus, it does not act right. Cards shake and double when grab and drop into trash. However can't even start game. Double clicking to play card doesn't work
Now with video ads...I'm done.

Was a perfectly fine little basic free game. Then it's updated and suddenly I'm forced to sit through full-screen video ads?!? Done. Immediately deleted and I won't be coming back.
