Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
The app is great. But it definitely was designed with the American Canasta rules. We actually never even knew about this rule set. We play classic canasta. Most of your customizations will allow it to work for classic. But the biggest thing your app needs is the ability to modify the red three points. And perhaps a way to hide the Special Hand scoring. But good job on the app design.
We play with some custom rules. For example the value of threes. The score pad does not allow for customizing scoring of threes. This makes it about useless if we want to use our own scoring rules.
Looks to be a handy/easy way to keep canasta scores. Will start using when playing in-person games again after pandemic social distancing.
This app saves time and is super easy to use! It even has a way to adjust the scoring scale! Definitely recommend.
So glad we found this app – its truly improving our whole gaming experience. We had to manually tabulate, and not only was it too much of a mental strain, our scores were sometimes inaccurate!! Thanks to this app the whole playing experience has been improved and we can now focus on winning.
