Five Hundred for Android
Working with the AI to outsmart the AI opponent....Hmmmm I've just scared myself. Great game! Love the basic layout. No need for fancy graphics and large game size to fill up my phone. Need more games like it.
Basically good. However AI often over trumps tricks won by its partner, leads back small trumps when it's your opponents call to give opponent the lead, gets confused who it's partner is, ups a call when opponents have called 6 eg opposition calls six hearts then partner calls 7 and gets trounced because they only have 1 or 2 trump cards. It seems more sophisticated game play is a difficult fix, still fun to play though.
It's a pain when my partner is constantly trumping me. If i was playing an actual game this probably wouldn't happen as often. Any possiblity of a fix for this???
Best 500 game I've found. Fast, clear gameplay. Serious flaw causes ai to bid 8 on very little and trumping when partner holds trick or undertrumping is stupid
Like most others I'm sick of my partner trumping my trick when they are last to play. Also if I bid, for example, 6 clubs (because we only need 60 points to win) my partner makes it more difficult by bidding 7 clubs, grrrr. Someone said they had 960 points before the computer recognised that they had won but you have to make it (as in win the bid) and achieve the bid to win. You can't win by winning point from tricks when the computer 'made' it.
App just can not distinguish having a human as a partner. Always out trumps the human. Spent more time trying to outwit my app partner. Still a good game for an app.
AI plays an unnecessary trump card even when trick is won by human partner. Often leads a Trump card when opponent makes, resulting in giving control back to opponent when tricks could be won by leading offsuit cards. Good app to practice on but frustrating if you want serious play.
The game is fun to play, but frequently the computer gets the wrong points from completing their bid. The most recent example of this is that the computer got 10 sets when it bid 6 spade, and therefore awarded itself 250 points. Otherwise, fun.
I enjoy the game until, inevitably, AI insists on leading offsuit before getting rid of trump. It is standard knowledge that offsuit cards are ALWAYS good once trump is gone.
The AI are not programmed well. You lie the smallest Trump and the highest will be played every time. The AI partner consistently trumps over you.
I like it but my partner is an idiot.trumping my tricks and leading trumps to the opposition when they made it.also makes it 8 something when it had stuff all.
There are far too many illogical computer plays to keep me interested past playing a couple games.
Who evervprogrammed the computer to play as partner is brain dead and has no idea of the game cards itbplays at times is ridiculous
Very addictive. There are some minor ai flaws but the layout and gameplay are excellent!
Ai continues to trump partners tricks will over trump even wgen truck won Ai is BAD will play too card even when trick already wonTOO EASY TO WIN
Its a joke your partner trumps my tricks who programs these stupid games
Just like being around the kitchen table. Miss the table talk though.
Terrible AI. Computer makes stupid mistakes.
Would rate higher if optuons for kitty could be 3 or 5 cards and 7 bid to win kitty
My partner randomly will bid 8 hearts without having suit nor any hearts!
Sick of being trumped by partner fix it will be better
Why does the computer take your tricks when it doesn't have to
On a smartphone the deck is so small. It's very easy to hit the wrong card or button and there isn't any way to correct yourself.
A bit annoying when your partner over trumps you on several occasions during a game unnecessarily.
Play your lowest card and comp plays highest even if has a lower card that would win or if partner would win trick.
When you reach 500 the game continues on with no winner. I've gotten all the way to 960 before the computer acknowledge we had won the game
Good game, but I'm sick of my partner AI trumping my card, or betting, for example, 8 spades, and having only a few low spades.
More of the same not at all real play. Waste of time.
This is a pretty good rendition of the game, but two very frustrating things occur: your partner constantly takes tricks you've already won, and the computer is allowed to bid closed misere on an opening bid, but you aren't allowed to make that bid until the bidding has reached 7. That isn't as irritating as losing tricks to your own partner, though. Otherwise, it's a good game.
When I bid miser I want your lowest 3 cards not the joker and 2 aces. Miser means I don't want to take a trick. When I bid no trump I want your highest cards and if you have the trump pass it to me. Please make this fix then you will have a great app!!!
I wish it had a few house rule options. Like the 5 card kiddy or make it so a 6 bid is only an inkle and you don't play it. other than that it is amazing I rated I'd 4. And not 5 only for that reason.
Need to fix the partner trumping in when my card has already taken the trick. Need to fix partner leading out low trump when other team took the bid...a lot harder to win when we're just giving our trump cards away. Need to fix partner bidding way too high when they don't have high cards...I really don't understand this at all...why is my partner bidding 8 clubs on the first round of bidding when they have no high cards?
This game would be way better if it scored correctly and not give you opponents all your points and would be great if your partner played with you and not against. Shame it has the makings of a 5 star app. When that's improved I will give it 5 stars.
If you like playing 6-bids, this is a great game. Ai will trump a trick that would have taken with the high card. Ai also does not know how to bid.
Annoying that the opposition can bid closed misere immediately but I have to wait for a bid of 7 to be reached. Would rather everyone could bid immediately
Common complaint is that your partner seems to be an idiot. Trumping when you are already winning, or throwing out trumps when a trump was not lead & they lose it anyway. Also I don't know about anyone else but leading a Joker as the first card is extremely uncommon in a normal human game of 500 as well as the opposition leading trumps when they did not win the bid, it just doesn't happen. It's a good start, but needs work.
Partner still trumping players tricks. Then I.A. uses the occasional off suit Jack as a bauer and rips you off again. It also allows other players to bid closed on the first round...
Computer can go closed misere without reaching a 7 call first. Also the AI is a bit limited, constantly over trumps for no reason. Makes weird calls, calling a suit with next to know strength.
Computer is terrible at calling bids. Would not recommend at all!!

It's a great game on the most part, but when I close the app it restarts the game I'm on. This means I can't turn my phone completely off while playing a game. I don't know whether this is specific to my phone or not. If there was some way that could be fixed that would be great.
