Spades for Negative User Reviews
✓ Ok but not too brightThe Game makes mistakes that are quite stupid: tops partner’s K with the Ace when it has another card in suit, does not trump it’s partner’s lead when there are many higher in suit cards yet to be played, really dumb about nil bids in many respects. The game has no contextual sense at all. Worst aspect is “optimistic bidding”. North, the AI, fails its bid 35% of the time: totally unacceptable. Every once in a while the scoring goes nuts: charges for 40 failed nil bids in one hand!!! Often more worried about the bag count that setting the opponents. Still, fun most of the time..Version: 6.3.4
✓ Partner(North) doesn’t know how to play nil games1. N bids nil holding 10, 9, 8, 7 of Spades. Another game, after I had bid 3, my so-called partner bid nil with K, 3 of hearts and K, J, 10, 9 of Clubs! How is anyone supposed to cover that? And in that game we had been more than 100 points ahead..but we lost the game. If the bot had just bid 1, we would’ve won! The opponents NEVER bid that stupidly! 2. West bids nil. I‘ve led the A, K of a 5 card suit and am still holding the Q and 2 small cards. N has discarded on my K. I then play my lowest heart. West plays the Jack! Yeah, I think, their nil is broken! Wrong—North , my alleged partner, trumps the trick! 3. Partner often overbids…2, 3, 4 games in a row! Whoever programmed this AI doesn’t know how to play Spades! Incidents like this happen often!.Version: 6.3.4
✓ Sounds always onLatest update has sounds playing all the time.Version: 6.3.4
✓ As dumb as the restI had high hopes at the start. Then I went nil. My partner plays low cards and sets me. Mind you, spades has been broken and he’s sitting on several high spades but he opts to lead with 3 of hearts. I’ve given no indication I’m out of hearts, either. Then the other team goes nil. He plays all his high cards with no effort to try and set them. He’s only bidding 2 and ends up with 6. If this happened once, so be it. But after more games than I care to count, I’ve been let down again by a retarded partner. Going to one star. Asinine play, how can you program this to be so stupid?.Version: 4.6.0
✓ SpadesThe deals or hum drum. All about the same. Not natural deals. They are programmed to be near same each deal. Should be chance deals. Also I don’t worry about other team trumping, I have to worry about north constantly going set. So when I bid I have to back off because north over bids and sets us!! I love the game of spades. Needs to be a game of chance. Not programmed. Thank you.Version: 5.0.2
✓ Good tryThis program was written for people who insist on having an idiot for a partner..Version: 5.1.0
✓ Don’t Waste your time with this game.I’ve been playing Spades for 40 years on and off line. These are the most stupid robots to play with. They go Neil with a jack, 10,9 and 8 of spades all the time and it’s only 3 cards that can be covered. Or when you go to Neal they don’t cover you. Try a different speed game don’t waste your time with this. They do it all the time my partner and the other team. I won’t need all the other day and my partner would not use a spade and she had a king in Ace of fades.Version: 6.2.1
✓ Spades freezes in on last cardLove this game! Except now with the last IOS upgrade it freezes on the last card of the hand. won't allow more plays, totally unresponsive. Hope it's fixed soon!.Version: 6.2.1
✓ Game freezes oftenBest Spades game I have played but it freezes often both the iPhone and iPad. I have to close the App and reopen to unfreeze. Sometimes when I do it I lose the current game. Very frustrating..Version: 4.5.1
✓ Partner is riggedI’ve been playing this for awhile and it is a time killer but your partner is never to be relied on. I have to adjust my bid down at least one because they almost NEVER get their bid. If I go nil it doesn’t cover for me. If the other team plays nil it still plays all of its high cards. I just played and went nil and it came down to the last two cards. It had made its bid, it chose to lead with an 8 in the suit even though it had the king, there by making my Q high.?? Always bids too high… when I adjust my bid lower to cover him which is almost every hand…suddenly it will start making its bid causing my lowered bid to bring in bags. Very irritating. Play at your own risk of sanity….Version: 6.2.1
✓ Don’t Waste Your TimeCards are NOT dealt randomly AI players understand how to lay cards but DO NOT understand or play the game..Version: 5.5.1
✓ Great game, even luck, fewest adsThis is the best spades game and I’ve tried a lot of them. Not long hot and cold streaks so it’s more about skill. Agree with other reviewer about going nil - other players don’t help set them, which is frustrating - but overall this is the best IMO.Version: 6.0.3
✓ Don't be fooled by all those 5 star reviews.It's not terrible, but it's not really Spades either. Playing four as singles, the developers have skewed the deals so you have voids and singletons much more frequently than in normal play. During YOUR nil bids, the others will always lead their lowest cards, but during any one of THEIRS, they pay no attention at all and routinely lead their highest., not caring how many bags they take. You can do better..Version: 6.2.1
✓ “Partner” is your 3rd opponentPartner calls 4 and only gets 2 consistently. If you go 0, partner will lead low suits or go lower than you screwing your points and then play a higher card next hand. Also does nothing to other team when they go 0. Other than playing against 3 it’s not bad!!!lol.Version: 6.0.3
✓ Ok at times, but lousy at playing nilGame does not know how to play nil hands, no attempting setting oppenents, your partner is more likely to set you or in the majority of cases themselves. Will throw a high card on a trick they aren't getting, only to play a lower card later that could have helped partner's nil. Or most often a king that they needed to make their own bid..Version: 1.5.1
✓ Cheats on ScoringI just finished a game and got penalized for having 10 bags when we only had 2!!! How can that be?! And how can it be that either the West or East team always has the Ace for any suit you need - if you have the King, they have the Ace. It never fails! There is some cheating going on somewhere!!.Version: 5.1.0
✓ View of cards blockedI cannot see my cards with the add blocking my view..Version: 6.3.4
✓ Cant calculate right!I have notified the author that more than once the scores are not tabulated correctly. Just saw it again in my own score. Love the game but until this problem is corrected I’ve got to find a more accurate game..Version: 4.4.0
✓ Doesn’t cover youYour partner will not play a trump card when possible to cover you when going for 0 tricks. Also the computer will pass up taking tricks with a spade when possible in order to have more spades at the end of the game.Version: 5.5.1
✓ Decent GameIt’s certainly good for teaching the basics and some strategies. Lead bidder rotation and scoring are mostly accurate. Computer partner could definitely use some work. Other aspects are more annoying. Fundamental rules of the game are absolutely crucial and the fact that it is nearly impossible to consider deals to be completely random makes it apparent that at least one is being overlooked. It is most apparent given that, in over 100 games, no computer player has received the Ace of spades on a blind Nil bid but I receive it 30 to 35 percent of the time. These issue could be corrected and a great game would be the result..Version: 5.1.0
✓ Terrible gameThis game is terrible. As the one playing against the computer it’s three against one. Your partner always overbids and you get dealt terrible hands. No way this is random card dealing. The game is boring and dull when you are dealt two spades a hand on average. Why did you ruin this game? The discrepancy in dealing cards is unreal. North/South team is at a big disadvantage now. You took the fun out of the game. First thought it was just luck but after numerous games it is obvious something was changed..Version: 6.2.1
✓ Annoying background musicIn the last few months some annoying background music plays & can’t be silenced in the settings. This is a great time killing game but I can’t listen to other things while I play because of the music that WONT stop!!!.Version: 6.3.4
✓ Not a good spades gameAll 3 bots lead every ace, king, queen...high card against a nil bid. Not at all realistic in the way a real game would be played. Will continue to take bags it doesn’t have to, even though both sides have already made their bids. Absolutely ridiculous game to try to learn to play spades or to try to sharpen your spades skills!.Version: 5.1.0
✓ Too many pop up messagesDecent gameplay and interface, but there appears to be no way to turn off the annoying dialog boxes. Don’t ask me if I want to bid blind nil every hand- just make it a button. Don’t make me click OK after displaying the score every hand- just show the score for a couple of seconds and move on. Too much user interaction required..Version: 4.6.0
✓ HELP!!What is going on all of a sudden? I used to enjoy this game thoroughly, but WHAT IS WITH THE QUESTION MARKS?? I have selected and reinstalled the app, but it didn't fix this..Version: 6.0.3
✓ Why does my AI partner lead with a low card?I bid zero. AI already made their bid. They have a 10, 6, and 5 of spades left. They lead off with the 5 ?? Why??.Version: 5.5.1
