What Makes Wild West Faro Stand Out
Picture a scene of a Saloon back in the Old West. Imagine you’re there now, you walk in, you look around and see a group of people playing cards. You might think that they would be playing Poker, but the game of choice was in fact a game called Faro! If you would like to play this popular old classic card game on your mobile phone or tablet, then download the best Faro card game app today and step back in time. Wild West Faro is our first game release!
A CLASSIC FARO CARD GAME
The Wild West Faro card game was the most popular card game played throughout the Old West. Known within the local Saloon as "bucking the tiger" or "twisting the tiger's tail" this name originated from the early card backs, which featured a drawing of a Bengal tiger. By the mid-19th century the tiger was commonly associated with the game. With our faro card game app you’re able to immerse yourself in a unique gaming experience and enjoy hours of fun!
HOW TO PLAY
The rules of this version of the Faro card game are similar to the original. The betting layout consists of a suit of Spade cards, from Ace up to King. Players would bet on the card of their choice or multiple cards. The dealer would then exposes cards in pairs, a winner and a loser card, the dealer would then pay out or collect accordingly depending on whether you won or lost. Wild West Faro allows you to place several different types of bet, such as a bet on the High Card, a parlay bet, a single bet card or multiple bets on several different cards to either win or lose, when betting on a card or cards to lose, this is known as coppering the bet. This is where an old Indian head penny coin or washer was placed on top of the bet. You can place as many bets as you want before dealing, betting from $1 to $1 million in an effort to break the bank by winning all of the Dealers money!

Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
We really like this game. We saw it in a few old westerns and got curious.
Its an d fashion game that keeps us entertained. We really would like to play this in Vegas.
We paid $1.99 for an app we cannot open on our iPhone.
CAVEAT EMPTOR! If you have anything remotely resembling a new iPhone or iPad DO NOT BUY THIS APP. It just plain ol doesnt work. After you pony up your money and download the app you get a cool-looking icon, and even cooler load screen when you open it, and then it all shuts down and doesnt do anything else. Maybe an update for the app would help. Not holding our breath.
Only thing wild is its instability.
On iPhone and iPad the game crashes before it even opens. Paid $2 and have never even been able to play the game.
