The first app to offer both 3 and 5 handed Sheepshead, with a multitude of game play settings, and achievements. The streamlined app makes it a breeze to pick up and play for a few minutes or for hours as you challenge the computer, and try to capture all of the achievements.
here are some of the features Sheepshead Pro has to offer:
* 3 Handed Game- a first on the App Store!
* 5 Handed Game - choose your favorite mode to pick a partner.
* Pick your partner with a Fail Suit or Jack of Diamonds - it's your choice.
* Track your stats - including game, hand, and pick stats.
* Achievements - keep entertained for hours with multiple achievements to shoot for.
* Leasters, doublers, re-deals, and ability to crack.
* A simple and intuitive user interface.
If you are a serious player looking to pass the time, don't waste your money. A very frustrating experience as they cannot write intelligence into the app.
The other players are weak. Allow me to de-select the redeal option and doubler option. Too much time is lost with these options.
I enjoy the application, except when leasters are played. The logic is flawed - common someone leads a fail ace - which would never happen. Also noticed several times that when a picker has trumped a fail hand, and someone could over trump the picker - the player often thows off a fail suit.
This is one of the best Sheepshead games for iPad I've ever played. Playing 5-handed is the only true way to practice this addictive game.
It's a fun game to play and I'm glad they finally developed an app. However, the leasters are very unrealistic as they often lead aces. The partners play good a lot of the time, but also make lots of bonehead moves.
Better than another app I tried. Like the info it provides as players pass or pick, and some of the extras are nice. Often unrealistic plays by opponents, such as playing a fail or even shmeer when they should trump the picker. I have also never heard of playing 3 handed with a 32 card deck, but most often 26 or 24.
As a die hard sheephead fan, this app is the best and most realistic out there. A few glitches here and there but overall good fun.
I have to admit though there are certainly improvements to be made, this has turned out to be a pretty decent Sheeps experience for someone nearing 50 who's been playing since he was 10 (with real cards of course). Unrealistic number of occurrences of Pickers going alone, unrealistic amounts of times no one picks, once in awhile someone does something stupid, but then again that's what it's like live too. I'd love to see what the blind is on each hand, drives me nuts not knowing and it's usually shared after the hand is played. Mauer button. Fun.
Does not even compare with the other free versions. Well worth the price.
