Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
This game is awesome. So fast and so realistic. FUN FUN FUN.
Its just like playing in a casino, but no ads and no popups. Hours and hours of great fun for the price of one latte at Starbucks. Our hearty thanks to a stellar developer. The grumblers are either very unlucky or simply dont know how to play. This guy aced it.
We can create our own strategy and drill on it before a trip. Very helpful.
This is one of the better BJ games out there with the option to play multiple hands. It would be even more useful if we, as players, could have some control option as to the cards are being dealt- to be able to choose how much % of low cards are lumped together. This can help players better adjust to situations where dealers never seem to bust.
We really like the game and the layout. Fun without losing money.
Love this app. Great support by someone who cares.
This is an excellent Blackjack game.
Nice to be able to tune up our game.
Love this app. Its very flexible and has all sorts of options for training in the way that you want. We highly recommend.
Runs the came perfectly for new players or pros. Gives its advice by the book and helps you learn how to play or even to count cards. Wonderful app highly recommend.
We think you need to know the game. Can you AFFORD it?????, if you can do it, they are #1. We wouldn'tplay another.
A must have before you play at a casino. Teaches you all the best moves according to the odds, but allows you to break a recommendation if you choose.
Ive played enough real blackjack to know that this game being a bloodbath is actually realistic however, it still feels as if there needs to be some sort of a variable in the cut to switch it up somewhat.. A lot of statistical miracles occur in the game that could be helped by adding another random variable.. Definitely a help with practicing your running count though.
Fun way to practice basic strategy.
This is a great Blackjack App, better than most Blackjack Apps Ive played with before. The different side bet options are excellent too. The only thing we hope to see added to this App is a Lucky Ladies Side bet. The casinos near where we live use this side bet, along with the 21+3 side bet, which is already on this app. Hopefully, the Lucky Ladies side bet can be added if you do your next upgrade. :).
Options galore! Can be challenging at times, and thats a good thing! Well done.
Something happened when we updated the app last time, and we can no longer seethe dealers up card unless we watch carefully as its dealt. Its as if the screen is zoomed in too much and the outer border is cutoff. Otherwise, a great way to learn and hone your game. It would be 5-stars if not for the display issues with newest update.
Would like reminders about the hand gestures.
Poor algorithms, 5-6 card 21's. Give us a break. Removed app. FYI, this what the bitter developer sent us more than a year later. This game does not have any magic algorithm to steal your FAKE money. This game also has no InApp purchases for in-game money, and you can get more FAKE money at any time in the game (via the ARM) whenever you want. Thus what is the point of creating some crazy algorithm to steal your FAKE money which costs you nothing to get more. What you are getting is bad luck, and nothing but that. All we can say is this, you are way too little, way too late, ignore your customers, lose your customers. Since you like the word fake so much, take your FAKE game, with your FAKE programming some where else. Fun Fact, no one wants to waste their time, even with a game, we want a realistic game, not a poorly programmed one. The only bad luck we had was downloading your game. Feel much much better now that its deleted.
It's one of the best games to practice between live casinos and online games.
We play this game regularly. The graphics are nice and it works well.
Great to practice with and very glad we're not using real money.
Learning, thanks for your effort.
We're an AVID Blackjack player and this App by far is our favorite of the 100 or so available. Not real sure why anyone would give this game anything less than 5 Stars, makes no sense to us. Keep the updates coming, GREAT JOB.
This is the most authentic Black Jack game we've ever played. Keep the updates coming, GREAT JOB guys.
Like to use to practice in between going to real casino. Have had this game for long time and it doesn't get boring.
Love this app, great options and great way to freshen our skills before our trip to Vegas.
Whether you want to challenge the casinos at a pro level or just sit down and play a few hands, this app will improve you skill level. Vey functional with a great variety of options. We highly recommend this app.
Both for playing and as a tutor (both basic strategy and counting). It is a steal at $2. It uses gestures and has an infinite amount of rule and other settings to accomplish your goals. Love option to play up to 3 hands at once.
Plays like a real casino. Gives the proper advice and helps you to learn what the "book" says to with each hand. We've downloaded many BJ games only to delete them minutes after playing them. Don't waste your time and money on the other games.
Love this game, can't put it down.
This is a great and accurate game. It is quick, fun to play and good practice if you play at a casino. Even if you don't play at a casino, this is still a fun game.
It would be nice to have iPhone X support. Also, it would really help put the categories in options menu to accessible a bit more easily, rather than scrolling through a bih list. One idea is to have side tabs for different categories, so we can quickly jump to that category (or section) of options. Something like how App Store has different tappable menus at the bottom of the screen. Enabling search to get to the option is also a good idea.
Two glitches If you take insurance against dealer Ace and dealer has blackjack, you still loose money. Also, resplitting Ace option does not work. Other than those two problems, it's the most realistic win/loss ratio game we have found. It's now been over a year and the resplit Aces still not fixed.
Ok but cheats like crazy, how many 20s and 21s are possible from the dealer?! When you increase your bet limit the dealer gets constant 10 cards and you guessed it a ten or ace, way too many dealer 20 hands or blackjack a to feel real, also looks like it was developed on windows 95.
Playing three hands at once the dealer gets 20 so often or draws 5 cards with amazing odds. We play tons of single deck games and have always won or broken even in real life playing multiple hands. Something is very wrong with the percentage of dealer wins. The more you bet the more the dealer wins and the dealer hits blackjack at the end of a shoe often when you bet big. Again one on one odds are one thing but 3 on 1 the dealer still wins with ease and draws amazing cards. At least it gives you unlimited funds if you think going to the ATM for $50k every second is fun. Too bad it's so customizable but the odds are stacked.
Was playing Mobilitywares BlackjackFree and with many 10s of 1000s of hands and some variation in play, we couldn't move the dial past 43% wins. So it lost our trust. BlackjackMH initially felt more natural but after about 1000 hands we're observing that the dealers more-than-two-card 21s are dramatically exceeding the statistical probability of 7%. Seems like this problem is either bad randomness algorithms or a built in function to get players to purchase chips. PS we're just some person downloading a game; not a competing company attempting to slander the author (as has been stated in his in-app notifications.) PPS we've played a few more hundred hands and am still seeing an unusual frequency of dealer 21s. Just played a hand with two aces that we split, one of which pulled an ace. The latter hand lost because dealers last 3 cards were aces that hit 17. The odds against 6 aces being pulled in one hand (btwn dlr and us…no other participants) are pretty astronomical… We think something like 1 in 4,600,000.
This game used to be great. In spite of our current mega points showing in the Game Center, over 439 million and being rated around 32 worldwide, our points disappeared and in spite of writing to customer support multiple times from inside and outside of the app, we have never received the courtesy of even one reply. Don't bother with this app.
This is about the most realistic blackjack game out there. We've played a lot of the others, but either the game logic was too, simplistic, or it didn't have the features, or the gameplay stunk. This is a high quality game with a smooth polished interface. You can tweak the rules in every way imaginable. The only thing missing is the ability to bet real money — a good thing too, we would have lost our home by now if it did! :D This version also has blackjack pass which is a seriously FUN version of blackjack! Bottom line is there are a lot of blackjack games, and your free to make your choice, but you will not be disappointed with this one,.
Am often accused of being tighten with a dollar. Far from it, though. We'll pay most any amount for something we consider quality. And this? This is the only app/game that we have felt was worth it. (incidentally, it's also the only game we have on our iphone.) and although the recent update came with a crash bug, the issue was resolved in less than 24 hours from the time of notifying the creator (took approx. 6 days to make it through App Store review before being updated). So yeah, can't recommend it enough.
Great game for teaching technique and rules prior to playing at casino with real money. Also a great way to get a casino feel by using multiplayer mode. We also let computer play one hand while we play the other two in order to see how the computer chooses to hit/stand/surrender.
After playing in learning mode for awhile, we are now confident at the table in casinos. This is such a great tool for learning how to play blackjack successfully.
Pretty good. Multi hand is the main thing for us as we can practice counting. Good stuff.
Very well thought out and executed game the has many options for learning the best odds and card counting. Highly recommended.
Fun game – able to learn better game strategy – well maintained by owners – updated when needed.
Forget about the negative reviews. This is a great app, and we have no interest in whether it fails or succeeds. Sure, there are times of getting good hands or dealer good hands. It's a game of chance. We will say two techie things: First, we would like to be able to increase the maximum bet allowed. Secondly, the frequency of dealer hole card of 10 seems higher than it should. Other than that, it's great.
Use this to practice counting and betting strategies for our monthly Vegas runs, fantastic customization…great app.
Very customizable, realistic, and feature rich. Love the new graphics but not crazy about color of chips. Prefer real colors ($5= red, $25= green, $100= black etc). However, that is just us being very picky and doesn't at all change the fact that this is absolutely a 5 star app.
Great Job on this 21 simulation.
Great game that does exactly what it is supposed to do. Tweaked with various updates.
