Cribbage Premium for Negative User Reviews
✓ Love this game.My dad and I used to go to cribbage tournaments. I don't get to play very much any longer...until this app. Love it! edit: Not sure what’s happened but it seems that after the last update the computer player just can’t lose. I played five games and the lowest hand the computer had was a five and then they had a 12 point crib. They averaged 9.54 points per hand including three hands that were 20+ points. Could it happen in real life? Yeah. Would it? No..Version: 3.7.6
✓ Ios17Since updating to iOS 17 I can’t connect with other players to play live. It will hang on “connecting” and never start the game. Until this issue I’ve loved it..Version: 3.7.6
✓ Not randomThis is my second review because of how horrible the algorithm is for this game. The opponent wins the draw about 90% of the time. It gets a Jack about 75% of the time and cuts jacks like crazy. It will mirror my amazing hands and cribs. It will peg the heck out of me most games. And that is usually how I win because it won’t peg well. It isn’t because I got good Hans and cribs. I very rarely ever break 16. My cribs never get above 12. It will break 20 multiple times 2 out of 3 games. It will take the lead swinging around the second corner and if it doesn’t completely skunk me, it will win by coming from behind on the home stretch with a brilliant hand and crib and crazy pegs after I count first and come up 1-2 pegs short after not pegging even once the last hand. I get fours and aces with two face cards constantly and cut a card that gives it a great crib. When I win it’ll often be with 3-4 pegs to win with a 20+ hand and 12+ crib. This app used to be great. Now it’s only good for online P v P. It’s actually the best P v P cribbage app I’ve found but someone really screwed up this app somehow..Version: 3.7.6
✓ Great version.True to the game. Fun for a time break.Version: 3.7.6
✓ The glitchiest updatesLoved this app when I first got it three years ago or so. Played w all my friends and family members that have Game Center. But now it won’t let me play w anyone of my choosing. Only random opponents. I get an error message when I pick my opponent. Very disappointing and I did pay for this app, so you get one negative star for no longer being worth keeping on my phone. I’m flabbergasted that this has such a high rating, makes me think no one plays people they know or someone is getting paid to submit positive reviews. Either way, I smell a rat. Another pointer would be to show last card played. In a real, in person, game you always see what was played last, but in this game if there’s a go, the card is not showed if you are not actively playing the game on your phone..Version: 3.6.2
✓ Use to be greatAs with nearly 100% of apps on the iOS, this one has fallen victim to the horrible ads to unlock/proceed structure. I had this app many years ago and enjoyed it immensely. Paid to unlock everything and had all kinds of nice features. Attempted many times to restore purchases to no avail. All of those goals and achievements that were fun to work for are now blocked by time regulated forced ad videos. The entire structure of all games now on the iOS are garbage. I think it’s nearly impossible to find a game, purchase it and be able to enjoy all the features without pop up ads and the pay to play mentality. Use to be several games on my phone years ago and now next to nothing because of this structure. This game is no different then the rest of the garbage out there. Lastly, all the people who complain about the computer playing unfair are simply poor players. I’m currently 14 and 2 against the expert level. If you’re getting beat regularly on expert, you simply do not understand the mathematics and strategy of this game..Version: 3.6.6
✓ Works great WHEN it worksThe game design itself is awesome but it is plagued with glitches that occur at least 50% of the time. The biggest error: when you’re paired with someone, you click to accept. It often then says: “you declined the game” (when you in fact accepted it), so then you have to get out of that page and start all over. Starting over involved at least 3 clicks. When this happens, I’ve learned to just get out of the app altogether, otherwise every pairing will tell you “you declined…”. Sometimes you have to leave the app and come back in 2-3 times before you can get a game going. That just happened to me again which is why I’m back here telling y’all. Sometimes, you try to start a game and the app itself kicks you out. That’s happening every 2-3 games right now. I have requested app support assistance probably 6 times now over several years and they always say they’ll get back to me but then they dont. Still, it is the best designed game right now for multiplayer. As soon as someone else designs a good app, I’ll be leaving if they don’t fix this. Sometimes I wonder if the app doesn’t work well with Apple software but I can’t even get support to tell me whether that’s an issue. Oh well. First World problem, for sure..Version: 3.7.5
✓ Give it a missI’m not sure if this original version is still operational as there’s a similar app with in store purchases, which is no doubt a lot more profitable. Regardless of this, someone has been fiddling with the algorithms and your opponent will invariably be very skilful at dealing himself the best hand, or have the right card at the right time. I’ve just deleted the app, something I did with (I think) their backgammon game which reminded me of the villain in James Bond’s Octopussy whose loaded dice always got him out of trouble..Version: 3.6.6
✓ Same thingWhen you’ve skunked the computer then you get skunked so badly that you might as well not play. The computer gets 24 and you get 2. This has been the case for every online cribbage.there is no conceivable way to win,you just don’t get the cards. I wish you could quit half way..Version: 3.7.6
✓ Issue with point countToday also seeing issues with normal point count. Explanation shows correct number but text on screen and actual points added to opponent computer are lower than actual points. How to fix this? Have screen shots if want to see them. ******** Hi. I love this game. Since the last update, however, there are issues with incorrect point count for the computer in single play. the game does not count the correct points from the upturned card as part of the computer’s score. This is a recent issue. I couldn’t insert the screen shot here but one example: computer had an 8 and 9 in the four card hand and the up card was 7. Computer got 2 points (presumably 7+8) but not additional 3 points for straight (7,8,9). Has happened other times too seems to be counting the up card correctly. I have not noticed the count being wrong for my score, only the computer’s. Thanks.Version: 3.6.2
✓ Great gameWell done.Version: 2.7.6
✓ GoodGood game lots of fun.Version: 3.7.6
✓ Not as AdvertisedMy father and I bought the game to play cribbage together as the description of the game touted of its multiplayer capabilities. It turned out that we would have to connect via Bluetooth or be on the same wireless network in order for the game to work. which doesn’t help us as we live far apart. The app will let you play against strangers that are picked at random from all around the world and yet you can’t choose to play against your father who lives an hour down the road? I feel baited. Like I paid two dollars for a free trial as they dangle ultimate cribbage in front of my face. The app definitely has redeeming qualities when it comes to single player games. With being able to customize cards boards pegs. Also has one of the more sophisticated cribbage AI’s I have ever played against..Version: 3.6.2
✓ Still no turn-based option… very disappointingI have enjoyed this cribbage app in the past but it has now been made much more laborious to play multiple turn-based games simultaneously by adding additional steps to switch from one game to another - it is annoying enough that I may stop playing this app altogether. It is disappointing and aggravating to take a design/format that is reasonably smooth and "user-friendly" in its function and make it significantly less user-friendly. Hope this change is corrected very soon, otherwise I will stop playing it & find a better app. So disappointing and seems like the app designers are either not paying attention or not caring to make the app easy to use/play. Having an online multiplayer real time game is not always successful because people disconnect or get busy and cannot complete the game. I turn based game option makes it so much more flexible because you do not need to complete the game in real time. I know this option is still available through game Center. But there are also many apps that have turned based game options without game Center. So this is completely mystifying and extremely disappointing that this option is not available. It is OK playing with the AI periodically but that is not the same as playing an actual person. Please please please offer a turn based option again! 🙏.Version: 3.7.5
✓ Definitely lacking in some areasClearly, the game is rigged. I started keeping track of the number of times computer was dealt a 5 card. The computer always gets more fives than me. I still maintain a winning percentage because the program is not aware of the finer ways of scoring. How about keeping track of the packing points? This is where skill really predominates and I would like to know how my pig and compares to the computer. A tip for future users: always assume that the computer has a five card in their hand and that will help you out!.Version: 3.7.5
✓ Good gamePlays well.Version: 3.7.6
✓ Hmmm. iPad is very lucky or I’m unlucky almost all the timeIn expert mode the iPad seems to just about always cuts the lowest card. The amount of times the iPad is dealt 5s in its hand is extraordinary. Apart from that graphics good and a good version of the game. Just needs to be more random with the dealing. Still can’t believe the amount of 5s the iPad is dealt almost every game all the time. Ah well back to another game anyway. Still addictive..Version: 3.6.6
✓ Fix your audio!!!Play all the time. I have Bluetooth enabled hearing aids and I don’t care to hear any audio from the game. When I disable the audio in the menu, the game still captures my hearing aids and reduced the sound. I don’t hear any game audio, it just reduces the sound I hear by about 50-60% . Very very annoying!!!!! Please fix! Still the same complaint about the sound!!!! Please fix! Who wants to hear cards shuffling anyway?? Also, your daily goals have become absolutely ridiculous ie. 10 four of. Kind🙄, 15 three of a kind. I have had this app for a number of years, am now looking at other cribbage apps..Version: 3.7.5
✓ Hugely skewed and Chat function doesn’t workMy friends and I got this game so we could continue our cribbage tournament during the Covid lockdown but my friend always has to be the one who invites me to play because of the way her Apple ID is setup on her devices. As a result I have discovered that this game is rigged in favor of the person who sends the invite. Where we would normally stay pretty on par, she now wins every single time. I’ve tested this theory out with another friend and if invite, I win and vice versa. Additionally, we got this version so that we could use the chat function AND THE CHAT FUNCTION DOES NOT WORK. Maybe this game is ok if you like playing yourself but if you got this to play with others you should skip it altogether..Version: 3.6.6
✓ This was our favorite iOS game-not anymore because we can’t play it togetherMy whole family played this game as a way to stay connected for the times that we cannot get together and play around the table. The recent loss of the ability to play turn days without everyone being on line at the same time has forced us to no longer play this game. Many of our family members are in different time zones, so we cannot expect everyone to be online at the same time. Not sure what caused this, but unless it gets repaired quickly, we will be looking for another game with the ability to play across different time zones and different times. Anyone out there have any recommendations?.Version: 3.6.6
✓ Now unable to playThis was a very good scrabble game but now my iPad has automatically updated in the last few days I can no longer load this game nor can my friends who have also had this iPad update. Can’t understand why it has done this as I paid to have this game.Version: 3.6.6
✓ Poorly programmedThis is the most contrived, ridiculous, poorly programmed game of cribbage that I have ever seen. I've played this game over 60 years and have NEVER seen such asinine dealing. The programmers must be 20 year old nerds who've played cribbage for about a year. On numerous occasions I'm forced to throw a 6 & 7 in the other player's crib only to have an 8 get cut. On line, it's ok. Against the computer, useless! Also, at the upper expert levels it's almost impossible to win. The computer simply deals itself 12, 16 & 20 hands down the stretch. Update: When you advance to higher levels, the computer makes it nearly impossible for you to win. It deals ridiculous hands to itself while giving you little, or nothing, to work win. As I said previously, it’s ok on line. 2nd update: I just played a game against an individual that I mugged half a dozen times, but guess who wins at the end!! Big hands at the end to the mathematically challenged!!!!! 3rd update: have now reached a point where the computer won’t let me win. If it looks as if I’m going to win, it pops a 24 hand and goes out. The little pinheads who programmed this piece of crap can’t stand criticism..Version: 3.6.6
✓ Used to be greatYears ago, when I purchased this game, it was great! Then, the developers started changing things, and getting greedy. Remember, I had paid for this. Shortly afterward, you could only pray the expert level if you bought the new version. You could only get certain swag after you bought the new version. They started to run ads on the bottom of the screen. It was nonintrusive, so I dealt with it. Then they started running ads between games. Now they run ads during the games, sometimes between each hand. I am deleting this app..Version: 3.7.6
✓ Great gameReally like crib, good game.Version: 3.7.6
✓ User interface not the greatestThe game is fun since it’s cribbage, however, the user interface is not the greatest. You have to be sure to click and drag the cards. Otherwise, it selects the card it thinks you touched. Even with the different backgrounds and card types to select from, it was hard for me to fully and correctly look at my cards. It was easy for me to miss pairs or runs. There is also a ton of unused space around the Peg Board. Since this is a card game, I think the cards could be larger and the peg board incorporated somewhere else. It feels unnecessarily small..Version: 3.7.5
✓ Online games very unstableThis is probably the best interface for all Cribbage apps out there. Perfect for playing the computer if that’s how you like playing. But let’s face it, Cribbage (and any other game) is more fun when you play other humans. In online mode this is terrible. There are problems trying to connect where you’re staring at the screen forever waiting and then in the rare instances it does connect, it will quit randomly, sometimes as you’re tantalisingly close to winning. I suspect it’s something to do with the way it interacts with Apple Game Centre as other cribbage apps that don’t use this useless feature work seamlessly. The developers don’t seem to care, either - hasn’t been an update to this for yonks. Would give it five stars if this worked properly online but as it is, it’s unusable. I use a new app now that doesn’t have these issues online but the design isn’t nearly as good so really hoping the devs care enough to fix this..Version: 3.6.6
✓ Worst Cribbage Game EverThis game is the worst cribbage game ever made. I have bought it multiple times and deleted out of frustration for various reasons. What makes it so horrible is the cards are not randomly dealt. While it can work out to your favor at times, the game decides who will win every time. I just deleted after playing 6 games in a row, against 6 different opponents and every one of them scored between 12 and 18 points...on every hand of every game. This has been happening at regular intervals over the last few months. As stated, it will happen for me at times, but I want true randomly generated cards, not “gimmee” wins or freebies. I’ve played tens of thousands of games of cribbage over the last 40 years and never seen such a blatant exercise of interference and manipulation. And to any massive idiot that thinks “it can happen”, well you deserve the title I just gave you..Version: 3.6.6
✓ Still - A good game ruined!Another update and no better. Unfortunately. If you are lucky enough to have a version from a few updates back don't update!!! This WAS good. Now graphics are poor. Adverts added. Daily challenges imposed upon you. Developers can't be trusted. Adding adverts via an update is nothing short of dishonest. Developer needs to roll back this update put the rubbish challenges, graphics and adverts into a new app/version and leave the old one well alone! But they tried that and no one used that version of the app!.Version: 3.6.1
