Community Insight:
Hi Thank you for the wonderful app Since evening we are not able to connect to the server Please help.
Our always togo game, we just wish there be more updates, specially on the AI side.
Shelem, is live game, thank you Babak.
Hi, thanks for the great game you designed, we wanted to comment on the emojis. Please add a new shape. Like affirmation like power.
Thank you very much because of your fantastic application, please increase the time of withdrawal its too short.
The game is good and nothing wrong with that. But the jokers placements are wrong. Joker cant be the zamine ever, and colored joker cant come down if the black hasnt first come, this 2 issues must be resolved and itll be as realistic as we play Shelem in real-life. 1. Joker cant be zamine, except if its your last card to play. And thats only if its red joker, black joker has to come down second to last card. 2. The order of the jokers is first black then colored. Not being randomly used.
It says a game is found, but imost of the time, it keeps searching, indefinitely , for an active game.
The game works perfectly, but its a pain when the bots are so dumb and there is always that person who starts the online game with bots and not giving others opportunity to join to the lobby. Also the points and ranking has serious problem.
Lots of bugs, game crashes, slow server response.
Update akharetun kheili bade vaqti hame miran birun chera bazio tamum mkonid akheeeeee.
There are few minor changes to the logics written that the system players follow to play that will make more sense and make the game more enjoyable. Will be happy to share few if interested.
Best app for ever wish android version is coming.
This game has been unavailable since yesterday and a message to disconnect to the server is displayed.
Im glad finally we have a shelem app but it does have a few obvious flaws that are not being taken care of. The clock runs out too fast and everyone is mentioning it in their reviews. Also one should be able to designate the trump suit and start playing with joker. The point system is not the best but can be easily modified:5 five point, 10 ten points, Ace 15 points, black joker 20, red one 25. Thank you Babak joon for developing this app.
Very nice app game But didn't conect to server recently.
Agha chera vase android nist in bazi.
We liked this game so much. We used to play it online everyday, but now we get an error that it cant connect to the server.
Amusing but AI is disaster specially when you count on your teammate.
No updates for a long time Thanks.
The game has been down for a few days now.
This app has many problem and unbounded.
Hi. This is niloofar. We have a complaint from your application. Somebody is using our number in this game and made many problems for us and there is no way to stop that! Is there any support for this app? We really need help.
Why we cannot play online? Just single player is enable.
