The Spades for Negative User Reviews

✓ I loved this game - then it totally messed up!Best spades game ever - lots of great features - but sometimes the scoring didn’t make sense. Then a blatant scoring screwup - partner and I bid 2 and 4 respectively, made 3 extra tricks but was given a 100 point penalty! Come on - this is a computer program so this type of error should never happen. Boo 😡.Soozeeq54Version: 1.1.5

✓ Nope, go back to the drawing boardWhere’s the “No Nil” bids option? Where’s the “Undo” your play option? Where’s the forfeit game option? Where’s the no 10 bag penalty option?Where is the bed aggression option? Where is the nail inclination option? Where are the speech bubbles? Where is the animate avatars option? Where are the snow affects options? Where are the pro mode and speed play options?.Deeee LeeeeVersion: 1.1.4

✓ The spadesThe computer always wins!.Kt zoneVersion: 1.1.5

✓ Recent update interrupts play with adsThis has always been my favourite spades game until recently when they added 30 sec ads between rounds. Really wrecks it.UrgicVersion: 1.1.6

✓ Best SpadesI like this spades better than others as you can select different opponents and generally the computer partners and opponents make good plays in comparison to other games I have tried..DaventryDeeksVersion: 1.0.9

✓ FixesThis game could be so much better if you didn’t have your partner playing against you, you can’t set the computer, but my partner helps the computer set us...the computer always knows wut to play to get your nil messed up...make the game fair...geese!!!.Neva nervousVersion: 1.0.9

✓ OkI always love playing spades but the logic for some of the players is horrible. Sometimes when they're throwing away after going Nil they throw away a four of when they could have gotten rid of a Q or K.Twdavis71Version: 1.0.5

✓ Has potentialIf only your teammate AI was smarter lol. If you call Nil, you can be assured your partner is gonna throw low and mess you up smh. I love how the computer opponents are wise and try to throw low too but man teammate IQ is low. And if you have a lot of bags, the teammate AI has no concept of throwing books to not get sandbags. Opponents know exactly though. This game would be perfect if your teammate played like the opponents . I’ve tried about 5 other teammate profiles and they all have this flaw.MattJPriceVersion: 1.1.6

✓ The Spades is Horrible JunkThis card game is Horrible with Horrible updates , took the choice away of customizing your own game ... Scoring system is Horrible -100 points for 1 bag when They placed a 5 bag penalty , so why then deduct 100 points for 1 bag if I didn’t even make 5 bags ? ... Makes absolutely no sense at all ... The Spades is a Cheating card game ... If you’re winning against the game’s opponents then they put all of these false penalties on you so that your high score will go down ... There are Better Spades Card Games ... This is Junk.Writer/PsychologistVersion: 1.0.9

✓ Almost perfectIn my opinion, best spades game for Apple, one thing keeping it from being perfect. Willing to change review to five stars for one small change. Allow an option for card passing on Nil (not just blind nil) bids. Otherwise I love this game..UdontneedtoseemynicknameVersion: 1.1.2

✓ Partner over bidsMany times if I bid one trick less than what I can make just to cover my partners over bidding. Although on occasion I myself may overbid but oh well..Superdave 1953Version: 1.1.4

✓ MessageIt’s too many interruption with other games & then it takes too long too get back to spades.Mynuts 3.0Version: 1.1.4

✓ Nothing was improved!While entertaining and still the best app for Spades, the latest version still gives the advantage to your avatar opponents. I routinely get weak hands that I can’t bid nil or one because you are set either way. And I once went 5 straight hands without getting an ace. Try to replicate that with a real deck of cards. Your avatar partner still plays lousy regardless of their rating and consistently change their playing style from conservative to aggressive so you never know how you should bid in a given hand. Now the play is much slower than the previous version. Thanks for the upgrade..Grumpyguy-1Version: 1.1.6

✓ Can you fix the major quirks in this game?I just finished a hand in which I bid ‘nil’ and the dummy partner led a low heart which caused me to go set. A round later, he played a card high enough to cover the card on which I was set and had the king of spades, which he could have led for me to ditch the higher card. This happened on two consecutive hands. How about a fix for this, Unbalanced?.CueroGigiVersion: 1.1.3

✓ 3 against 1I really like the format of this game. But the main downfall of this app is that Spades is supposed to be a partners game. But in this app, you are pretty much on your own. The partner you choose rarely supports you. He/she constantly trumps your tricks. When you bid NIL, your partner does not play cards to protect you. Interesting that your 2 opponents do protect each other. The developers of this app have more work to do to make this a decent game..RacicatVersion: 1.1.5

✓ Computer PartnerI get so tired of my computer partner cheating and playing for the other team. If he or she is my partner, please make sure it works that way. Please fix it or else I am doing permanently with this game..Qurean6Version: 1.1.5

✓ AI needs helpJust downloaded and played a few games. The cards do not deal fairly. I don't t expect to win every time but to not win at all defeats the purpose of playing. Playing should give you a good feeling when you are done..Always listening.Version: 1.0.9

✓ RatsAn earlier version of this game had the ability to set an option to help keep a card track, now gone so having to keep a side account makes this one much less fun. AND partner Mary was the only player that sought to limit bags, now she wants to give you bags it used to be a 5 star game. Not any more.48Rocket48Version: 1.1.3

✓ Wishing for Consistency, too.No one would pair with these AI players in real life. All my partners purposely take tricks after we have our bids, costing us 100 pts a lot. But pair those same players against me, they play better. I go Nil, my partner throws a queen of spades first when the ace is also in their hand. No real player would do that. At least not one that wanted to have partners in the future. 99% of the time I’m offered a Blind Nil, the ace of spades is in my hand. Those odds would never happen in a real life. I see this foolery happening because I utilize the Undo key A LOT. Whole games. To play them differently, see what happens. Learn. I realize I can choose partners with different skill levels and playing styles, but a two star partner plays exactly the same as a four or five star most of the hands. There is no real difference in them. And while one AI partner can be great for a couple games, suddenly they become bad players for no good reason. Can’t get their bids, etc. They are not consistent in their skill level or playing style. For the most part, I enjoy this app. But it’s frustrating when my partner is _clearly_ sabotaging us. Isn’t this game supposed to be fun?.Wishing for customizationVersion: 1.1.6

✓ Great game but the ad experience is awfulIt’s a good spades game but the amount and duration of ads render it just about unplayable. I used to only get ads at the end of a game now I’m getting them almost every other hand and they are long and annoying. Ads have ruined your game! Update: The ai in this game is bunk. Lacks sound logic and competitors always have the higher card. Sooooo close to being the best spades game on the market, but then you go for a nil and your partner acts like he’s a 3 year old randomly smashing buttons on the keyboard..Benn cause "ben" was takenVersion: 1.1.6

✓ Brian67capricornGame cheats entirely too much. The game should play as if the processor doesn’t know all the cards you have in your hand. Instead, it plays like it knows every card every player has and you are the only one in the dark. That’s not all, the game has shuffled the cards around before during a game. Simply put the game cheats entirely too much. However, even with as bad as it can be it’s still one of the better games to play..Brian67capricornVersion: 1.0.9

✓ It could be betterI’m complaining like a couple of others have done previously. You bid NIL and your partner will throw a low card, knowing that you bid NIL, then turn around and throw a card that could have kept you from picking up a book that just cost a 100 pts. The other players east and west are aware because they throw low cards like you expected of them..Pinoy TravlerVersion: 1.1.6

✓ To Many Ad’sI really enjoy playing this game, but the constant ads are really annoying! There more than most game I play. Other than the ads the game is fun and challenging..HhhwywbywbwybwybwVersion: 1.1.6
