Octro Tambola Housie Online Reviews
If u are planning to play this game for a longer time may be with breaks in between forget it. We played once collected huge number of coins and gems. We had to take a break. Lost all of those and started again from scratch. We have sent emails to octro but looks like all those went into void. No response. There is no team supporting this game afaik.
We had been enjoying the game initially, but there are so many bogus games, where it shows there are 10 players & as the game continues we realize that Im playing alone, which is extremely annoying. We cant even quit as we will loose there is a penalty. And whats with the unnecessary high ticket prices & stakes? To have a variation, try having more different items to win instead of just 6 options. And pls have an option of the lady just reading the numbers instead of adding phrases before each number.
Do not get app trying to scam people.
We feel this game works on trick when you have more coins you always get the numbers which are not in your ticket and when you are almost there to complete something to claim you wont get number till end. It seems like game doesnt want you to win and when you have less coins that you will not be able to play suddenly you get all numbers you want and win more coins. Doesnt even deserve one star.
In Housie, one can purchase a maximum of 6 tickets where all 90 numbers are available, but this game limits the ticket count to maximum up-to 4 only.
Initially we were so happy, we have some million coins then from last two day they took all and want us to buy coins using money. Well good luck developer, you can go n eat tuna fish.
Used to be great with the 5mil lottery and big win prize…. The update just killed the game… Bring back the old version!!
Everyday our chips reduce. We felt that so one day we took a screenshot at night when our chips were around 48 lakhs and when opened the app next day in the morning the reduced to 21 lakhs and even our gems reduced. That is so frustrating. Dont feel like playing it anymore.
You will find that half of the players are bots setup by this app. Hope they improve this.
We like it but the bogie part is bull crap.
In the lockdown of coronavirus our moms cousins and us Im 7 play this game when we tried to play it we like it very very much this is our best game ever.
All of a sudden leader board icon disappeared from our gaming profile.
This is one of the worst games we have ever played it is terrible and completely cheats you making cpu win everything.
Plenty of bugs.. Looks like there was a need to launch the app without proper testing. The wordt game app for sure.
Absolutely superb. Im a big fan of Tambola and this app truly justified this amazing game. Love the interface and all the included features.
This game so addictive but x close button not visible after an add is played also, UI can be more better. But thank you guys feeling nostalgic.
Our kid was playing and she accidentally selected wrong ticket claim and then everything grayed out and can’t play. Another time, she got 4corners and claimed ticket but again it says wrong and stuck. We double checked if she got 4corners and yes she got it Fix your app.
We would like to say we love this game but we recently realized that now there no daily challenges that were there before.. Looking forward to it.
Such a cool game.. An addiction too!
We like it very much but we should be allowed to choose the ticket of the game of our choice.
They charge us 100,000 chips for a ticket and then u wait and wait and only their bots win all the money!!!! The most boring game in all three of Octro Tri pack :rummy, teen patti and this mind numbingly boring one!!! You never win!! We are gonna uninstall after this review!!
Great version of the classic Tambola game…
We like this game. It’s much addicting.
It’s a lot like Bingo and just as much fun and addicting! We’re using an old 3G iPod and we’re not having any glitches, connection issues nothing. Great game! You should try this!
