Community Insight:
We play this game when Im waiting at an appointment. Or just for fun.
We love the game, but we hate the advertisements. We totally despise those ads that loop you through and will not let you finish after one viewing.
The computer suspiciously seems to know our trends and knows what cards we have. It gets frustrating and may try another app.
Have been playing for years and the expert version requires us to stay focused on the game, not our surroundings otherwise Ill miss a good opportunity to change our melds. Love this game and play every night that we can.
Our favorite game of all time!!!! We play it constantly.
Game wont sign in with new IOS version. Dont download. You wont be able to compete in weekly tournaments. FIX PATCH.
This used to be a fun game but theyve tightened up so its impossible to win unless you are committed to undercut most hands. EVERY hand you get is a struggle, even on easy mode, there are zero easy hands. Not to mention the times the computer will knock within one or 2 moves for 3 or 4 hands in a row. That will never happen to you. Ill give 2 stars for ease of play and graphics but after many years, its just become too frustrating to play.
First we really like this game. Then we started realizing you're not really playing Gin Rummy. What you're really playing is "who can get rid of their highest cards first and knock".
We have never lost so many times to a computer it seems to know what we hold in our hand.
Suddenly, ads are way too long. We give up. Need to switch to another rummy. Got greedy.
Ive enjoyed playing Gin. It is a nice pastime or opportunity to unwind. The expert level is not quite as challenging as Id like, but the game is a relaxing way to exercise the brain in a way different from desk work. Also, there are a reasonable number of adds making it tolerable to play more and longer.
The medium AI player is perfect for an evening game. As we wouldnt be too harsh or anyones playing abilities we wont on the medium player AI either we win like 60% of the time Good enough good game.
We really love this game. It keeps you on your toes with a shot of adrenaline on the side.
Ive been playing this game for a couple years and really enjoy it. Challenging and fun.
This game passes time quickly w lots of fun variations of gin.
We love this game and play daily. We must changed a setting and now cannot figure out how to change to back. The cards used to auto order and pair but now we must do this manually. Help.
Thank you for developing this game, its a fun pastime. Ive been playing it for a while now and our only complaint is there are not enough themes, we have bought what you had and enjoy flipping from one to the other, however, some new ones would add a change of scenery, adding to the enjoyment of the game. One last thing, kudos, kudos, kudos to the person/persons who thought to add moving scenery, it sets your game apart. So, just a suggestion, more themes please. Happy Holidays.
Would be better if you could CHOOSE your daily challenges.
Hard level is easy to win. Need more live players.
It would be valued if players could replay the same hand more than once as this would be a great learning tool.
This game is fun and keeps us entertained.
Good game. Few ads. No need to pay money to play. Fun.
Great fun and very challenging. Really enjoy playing this game.
Love the game. Only complaint, we want more of a free selection of backgrounds.
This is a good gin game with good graphics and extra features but we like to manually meld in our hand. Multiple time Ive lost a meld because the card we were moving automatically went into the discard pile. Finally gave up and looking for another app.
The amount of ads is ridiculous.
We wish we had the luck the opponent gets. Picks up EVERY card we throw and knocks before we have anything CONSISTENTLY. Hey developers, thats NOT fun! We dont mind losing, but we are starting to think we dont have a chance at winning anymore. So, why am we playing and having to watch ads? Im not anymore. Fix this.
Do not recommendlike playing with a shark who cheats.
We commented about this atrocity once before. For a while, ads were much better, less violent, clean lyrics to songs. Well obviously money talks. They are back to the being offensive again, so Ill be deleting the app again and will continue playing other rummy games on our phone.
Way tooooo many pop ups. Just let us enjoy the game n not wait until u r done w ur idiot pop ups.
Good mindless fun that keeps us busy when we are in need of a distraction.
Ive been playing Oklahoma Gin for years and thoroughly enjoy this one. Its by far better than any other one Ive seen.
We have played a few games on our iPad hNd phone. This is our favorite. We play almost every day.
This app is good and love that is with multiple other games.
This is a good Gin Rummy app. We like that its the normal phone orientation, instead of landscape, and the graphics are nice. There not a lot of personalization in terms of the themes and whatnot, like some card game apps have. There are however, a few variations of gin that you can unlock with coins you win from playing (or buying) but we feel like theyre maybe coded wrong/weird. Oklahoma Gin, for example, on easy mode, Ive had hands where the computer knocks within two or three turns and then scores 50+ points. One time, knocked on the very first turn and we never even got a turn at all. Not sure how that is considered easy but Im not inclined at all to even look at medium or hard modes. In the normal mode, easy, medium, and hard appear to scale perfectly fine though.
Luv, Luv, Luved this game!!! When the expert level opened to us, we jumped at the chance. We win most gin rummy games – even in tournaments. Well, er, uh.At first it was lots of fun: So rigged that you lost most games. You kinda felt like the old Tampa Bay Bucs. Finally, though, its just plain ole boring (you know – puts you to sleep) too rigged to be fun.
We are ready to delete this game as much as we loved it. It is not good to have it on the computer anymore because our children also loved it. But we are not going to have them exposed to the adult ads that show up on this game. Disgusting and unnecessary.
Recently ads pop up before game play begins. Usually not a problem. However the games these ads pushing are violent and disgusting. They portray People being attacked, shot, drowned, we cant stand it. Sorry we really enjoyed the game but not at this price.
When we have it turned off? Its loud and annoying. Also, if you want to keep showing the same ads for games Ill never buy, thats up to you but its annoying and youd be better served mixing it up.
This is a delightful version of Gin. Have no complaints at all.
We like the new expert level. Ads are short zero to 5 seconds. We only play against the AI.
Like other reviewers, we like this version of Gin Rummy the best.
We are learning to play gin rummy (today) and this is a great tool to do that. We started at the beginner – won first game, then went to intermediate and won that game, and so continued into the hard mode. Im 50-50 at 8 games. Really learning lots. Our only hope is that the dealing of cards is always honest. Seems like it most of the time, but we dont know how they build the algorithm of these types of games.
We really like this game but it needs an Undo. The cards are too small and too close together, nature of the beast on a small screen. It's too easy to tap and discard the wrong card. We would even watch a commercial to get one.
At times there are not any players online. The game doesnt allow us to sign in with our Apple ID. The game doesnt allow us to sign in with our email.
The hands are definitely not random draws. We have played a lot of gin rummy and there is no way the card you wanted turns up the next card as soon as you play out of a run or two pair but it happens consistently with this game. Just not realistic but still fun to play. NWJ.
Its amazing how often the AI player goes out after one or two draws. AI player gets a completely unrealistic number of gins after a draw or two. No one is that lucky except an AI player playing a rigged game. Why on earth would we buy tokens? We guess its back to Spider Solitaire for us because this rigged game infuriates us.
We have been playing this game for a long time!! We really do LOVE Gin Rummy!! BUT..the easy level is HARDER than the expert level!! REALLY.
We used the. Original game for years, and, loved it. Then it stopped working. It did have some mistakes, which we tried to tell you, when you said that you couldnt fix it, anymore. We have now removed this game, due to the. Frustrations with its speed, and, problems, like it cant arrange the cards in the hands, by itself, and, it will not see gin, many times, so the game will not stop. Am now trying other developers versions, hoping to find another one like your original version, which will sometimes work.
Must be for teenage demographic.
