  • monetization
    161 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization in the game is heavily criticized for its excessive and intrusive ads, often appearing before, during, and after matches, which significantly disrupt gameplay. Many users report that even after paying to remove ads, advertisements persist, causing frustration and a negative experience. While some appreciate optional ads for rewards, the overwhelming frequency and forced nature of ads overshadow the otherwise enjoyable game.

    • “I paid to get rid of ads, but still keep getting ads between games and any time I change screens.”
    • “So I downloaded this game so my wife and I can play when we are just waiting around and I bought the remove ads and it worked for the first few games and after I closed the app the ads came back and when I tried to restore it the system said "error already own this item" and now I can't take the ads off again; there is an ad during every little thing.”
    • “Too many ads, didn't even get to play three moves in the first game before an ad interrupted the gameplay; horrible.”
  • stability
    29 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's stability is a significant concern, with frequent glitches causing freezes, lost bets, and connection errors, especially during online play. Many users report frustration with crashes mid-match, erroneous game outcomes, and intrusive ads disrupting gameplay. However, a minority note stable performance with few issues, indicating inconsistent experiences across users.

    • “It has no faults and there are no glitches, and it is very fun to play!”
    • “The app frequently freezes while loading the game during online play, causing players to lose their coins.”
    • “All kinds of glitches occur, such as freezing after placing a bet and then marking the game as a loss, dropped connections on a stable network, and inconsistent performance where some days it works and other days it doesn't.”
    • “The game often glitches during online matches, including ads popping up mid-match, incorrect game state displays (like empty pots with contents), and freezing when interacting with game elements.”
  • graphics
    13 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    User opinions on the graphics are mixed, with some praising the visuals and animations as beautiful and user-friendly, while others find the graphics outdated, slow, or poor in quality. Overall, the graphics are seen as decent but not exceptional, with comparisons to simpler older games.

    • “Simply the best there is.. the graphic is beautiful, the animation as well as the rich help information.”
    • “Great graphics and play style.”
    • “Great game.... good graphics and response time.”
    • “Too many ads and the game graphics are way too slow.”
    • “Graphics seem too old.”
    • “Crappy game graphics.”
  • music
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users have mixed feelings about the music, with some finding it enjoyable and fitting, while others find it annoying, especially because it cannot be stopped and is tied to ads. Overall, the music is appreciated for its quality and variety, but its integration with ads detracts from the experience.

    • “Music is nice and the different levels are good.”
    • “That song that plays is awesome. What's it called?”
    • “One more thing, your new version is annoying due to that music that can't be stopped.”
    • “Annoying music and outdated art style.”
    • “Ads when you pause the game and when a match ends, but if you treat it like a fanfare after you win or losing music as you inevitably lose, then it ain't so bad.”
  • gameplay
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is simple but slowed down by frequent rule changes and a mechanical, rigid flow that hampers smoothness and engagement.

    • “Change rules in two gameplay modes in one match.”
    • “Change rules in two gameplay in one match.”
    • “The gameplay is painfully slow though.”
    • “Simple gameplay.”
  • humor
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The humor in the game is quirky and ironic, highlighted by the amusing contrast where the winning player hears villainous sounds while the other player gets victory sounds. This unexpected audio twist adds a lighthearted and entertaining element to the experience.

    • “It's kinda funny that one player receives bad guy sounds when they are winning and the other player receives victory sounds.”
