Excellent GUI – ProSkat Review

IMO, this is the best-looking Skat game for the iPhone. I've tried the demo versions of iSkat Lite and Peter Heinlein's Skat, and Pro-Skat is cleaner, more elegant, and more iPhone-like. I'm relatively pleased with the AI strength. I'm not a good enough player to gauge exactly how well the computer plays, but it's significantly better than Xskat (I know, not hard) and seems better than iSkat Lite. The only issue I currently have with Pro-Skat is that it feels slow. I don't mind waiting while an opponent "thinks," but the movement of cards into the center, and the time it takes a bid button to pop up after a previous bid, seems longer than necessary to me. I've notified the developers, and they responded very quickly. It sounds like they're attuned to users and how to make the app better (For example, by adding a "claim" button so players don't have to sit through 6 or 7 tricks needlessly.)
