8 of 15If I wanted to play against AI I’d opt into it
I really like the game. The user interface is great. Since the new update winning when playing it solitaire is neigh impossible. So with that, and it’s increased sluggishness, I’m finally going to have to give it up. It’s just not worth it. The fun has been sucked out if it. As Dr. McCoy would say, "He’s dead Jim."
I’ve purchased all the decks and promo cards twice (because I didn’t feel like doing the inevitable back and forth to get them to honor my purchases the first time), but now I have again lost access to 3 promo decks and refuses to buy them a third time
Play it all the time. Great for killing time, short time commitment(longer with the expansions) my opinion, best phone game I’ve ever purchased
I’ve had this game since it first came out, and I still play it every day. It’s the one app that will never leave my phone.
Was really hoping the latest update would decrease the amount of “thinking” the AI has to do, but unfortunately it is just marginally better. Still makes it a drag to play though.
I’ve played and loved this game since I first played it in paper, but after getting a new phone a bunch of my purchases have been deleted. Judging by the other 1 star reviews this is a common error, which makes the big “restore” button in the store that seems to do absolutely nothing all the more frustrating.
Game is great but In-app purchases are not restored on different devices. Requests for support have been unsuccessful.
