Please!

I really like the spades game BUT have the same problem with the ad for World Poker Game as the review on 7/30 labeled “Nice Game”. If you have multiple people complaining about this it would be nice if you would look into the problem . It won’t “x” off. If you try, it sends you to a search area. If you try to go back from that screen, you find yourself back at the World Poker Game ad. I can only delete the spades game and reinstall to access the game at that point. Then shortly after reinstalling, the ad comes up again and I am stuck again. It’s very frustrating and I hope something can be done about it.

Almost perfect, with two issues that nag at me

I love this spades app and prefer it over any of the others. That said, two issues tug at me that I wish could be resolved. One, there is no bag counter for players to keep track if they have enabled the bag-penalty feature. The warnings are nice, but a counter in the corner of the player and opponents bags would help with strategy. Two, my teammate bot drives me NUTS and almost always cuts with a spade right after I’ve busted an opponents nil bid. Like almost every time. If these two items were addressed I believe I’d never download another spade app again.

Good, but not great

I play on the high difficulty level. My partner consistently under bids. I have to over bid to compensate or we take too many sandbags & end up with the 100 point penalty. Over bidding ruins my stats. Also, my partner doesn’t know how to set an opponent’s NIL bid. The opponent who had bid NIL played third that trick and played the highest card & should have been set, but my partner trumped the trick! He then went on to catch two sandbags by the time the round was over. He should have played off to set the opponent’s NIL and only caught 1 sandbag. He wasn’t left with nothing but Spades so it was possible to play off.

Other apps can’t compare

I never leave reviews but the developer for this app knocked it out of the park with this game, along with other apps I have installed by them as well. I have played several different spades apps all by different developers and this one is definitely on top for many reasons. First and most impressive are the ads, I hate ads but in order for games to be free I get that they’re necessary. There are so little ads in their apps, they never interrupt gameplay, and are always less than 10 or 15 seconds long. Super impressed with that. Second, the interface is super easy to look at it so it doesn’t have any distractions or other stuff to look at that’s unnecessary like other apps do and everything is bold, highlighted during your turn, they even highlight the current winning card. I don’t have the best eyesight so easy to look at and follow is really important to me. Third, a ton of other spades apps don’t really emphasize teams or their bots don’t really play along like a real life game of spades but they do in this game! You never have to worry about your teammate trying to beat your already bid winning card, and if they do it gives you a quick brief explanation as to why they had to. This would also be a great game to play if you’re trying to learn how to play spades, I’m not sure if it’s the right way but the exact gameplay in this is exactly how I originally learned how to play spades before smartphones were ever a thing.

Spades Mobilityware

One of the reasons this is such an appealing game is there are a number of choices I, as a human player, can make in each round that has an effect in the game. The Mware Hearts is not as “friendly”. It’s programmed to give the human player the Queen of Spades almost every hand. You’d never know there are four players that she might be distributed to… Back to Spades. My frustration is with the ultimate tier as I’ve made it to the top position. I did that with Hearts, as well, but am less interested because of the programming with the unwanted Q-spades. Mind you, it takes a lot of time to get to the top of the Grand tier, in either. My complaint is, once there, at the moment in Spades, another player, in this instance nearest in points, “Trunks” is 40 points behind me. Suddenly, in a few minutes, is back equal with me, who took several hours to pass “Trunks”. There is NO WAY in actual playing that could happen. Instantaneous 40 point leap in moments when it takes a human several hours to get 40 points?? Takes the “joy” of my accomplishment out of the game when preprogrammed competitors are given vast point movements that in reality human ones have to temporally work through. I do love Mobilityware games, overall❤️❣️Corrected.

Taught me how to play Spades

I downloaded this app two days ago, and holy moly— I’m so addicted now that I’ve already made it to the Gold III tier… 😅😭 I love a lot of things about this app: For one, the names of the animal competitors are absolutely adorable—I mean, you’ve got Wooly the sheep, Gobbles the turkey, Waddles the duck, Scooter the snail, Pinky the flamingo, Vladimir the bat, Cobalt the wolf, Skylar the bird… freaking iconic. The other thing I love is the animations at the end of each game— I bet those took forever to make, but they’re awesome, and they even cheer me up when I know I just lost the game… I’ve seen each of them like three times in the past two days (gosh I have too much time on my hands 😭), but they still haven’t gotten old.My only complaint is the app freezes up quite often to the point where once it’s been frozen for like five seconds, the only solution is to exit out of it mid-game.

Game rules

The game is really a lot of fun even though it’s kind of rigged, if my team bids NIL, the other team knows exactly what cards to play to set us, but it’s almost impossible to set their NIL.The rules I learned to play by states that when a NIL is played, the player bidding the NIL gets to pass their 3 best cards, and their teammate passes 3 cards back, also, when a team bids 10 tricks, they receive 200 points.It would be really great if the rules of play could be adjusted to make the game more official.Thank you and I hope to see the changes in the game.

Terrible AI

I have a similar issue to many others here. The AI is just horrible - especially my “partner”. I think I will look for another Spades game to play. Haven’t had this one for long, but to even have a chance at winning, you have to turn on “Bid Suggestions” - which is odd because 99% of the time, the suggested bid is the same that I would have put anyway, and even if I adjust it, I still have a better chance at winning the round than if I turn off the setting. This is with “Hard Mode” turned off. As others have stated, my AI partner is (for all intents and purposes) an idiot. If you know you can’t win the trick, you play your lowest card. When an opponent goes “Nill”, you play your lowest card to force them to take it. Nope. My opponent plays the highest card it has … nearly every single time.

Great game few issues

Game is great all together, however for me and everyone I know that plays spades irl NIL isn’t included. It would be better if there was a way to play the game with that mode turned off. Maybe a setting switch where you could disable the ability to go NIL. I usually am able to get them when I do go it, however it doesn’t work too well when a computer goes NIL, as they do not know the meaning of it or acts as if they do not. It’s easier to just go 1 than to get a NIL, and it would cause much less headache.Great game tho love the competitiveness.

Game Needs Improvements

1)Partners don’t seem to understand the importance of opponent (who has placed a “NIL” bid) to catch a trick. They always trump it and are so proud while I’ve passed up the opportunity several times in order for the NIL opponent to catch a trick. 2)The winner of the round is obvious after a couple of hands. If you start out with a bad hand, all of them will be and you never catch a break. You get a couple of kings with only one more card in that suit and 7-8 cards in the others. Many times I get the ace of spades and number cards with an occasional Jack. If you get a hand that allows you to go nil, you’ll catch a trick with a low number card like the 5 of hearts. Just saw one where it happened with the 3 of clubs—- they were getting nothing but bad hands. 3)I keep getting the (almost) exact same hand 2-3 times in a row. That’s frustrating. 4)The endless ads are annoying and some go on and on forever. This is the best spades game by far and I’d be willing to buy it so I wouldn’t see the ads but if some improvements aren’t made I’ll just find another game.
