Good game for fun & practice

Beth Wood

Good practice game. Would like to know how to play it with others


Loads very poorly

mpayne123456789

This app crashes constantly. In addition sometimes it will not reload unless I delete it and start over losing all the historical information. I strongly do not recommend this app


A few hiccups, but overall fun

Fun time killer, nice to play pinochle when I can't get real people together for a game. Nice options to adjust rules. Would like to see option for "take a bid and make it to win" - cannot "meld out" to win the game. Computer players sometimes win without ever taking the bid.


Partner passing cards protocol is off

Hbradley001

I love the app BUT whenever I call for Diamonds or Spades your programming has the partner ignore "protocols" but instead passes for getting a pinochle or double pinochle. To the detriment of the partner they are passing to. EXAMPLE: I won the bid, called Diamonds , I received a Jack and some Spades. Imagine my surprise when I led with my Ace of Diamonds and my partner played the other Ace. I have seen this happen on Ten's and other cards as we'll. True Pinochle players will tell you that you pass all Trump regardless if it is a double of them "except 9's" then other Aces's, then you pass pieces of the Pinochle. You jeopardize the power or control that you need when you have the bid by having the partner not pass you cards. In addition, the computer players lead their off suits with 10's which means they are fishing and loose the point to someone playing the ace. But then turn around and play a non pointer in the off suit. If they fished with the non pointer they would then have the pointer left for taking the next round.


Cranky partners

My experience with the application is pretty good, but my "partner's" face is pretty grumpy lol


Pinochle flop

Cairniite

It is a good time waster but it seems they hands/cards you get are the same. I agree with one review you should be able to win through a bid and just meld out.


Frustrating to play

TAG99999

The number of double pinochles that the computer manages to get are incredible. And I feel like I rarely ever get dealt a good hand. I'm lucky to be dealt hands where I'm one card short of a run, let alone two. I've probably played 8 full games and ended up with a run twice. I feel like my only purpose playing is to lose tricks to everyone else. That's no fun.


Plays good

Swamp logger

Fun to play. No glitches, just passes 9's when not appropriate sometimes.

Wish I could see what the last hand was that was played. I'm trying to learn and that would have been helpful. Should have tried out the free version before buying. Thanks.
