Spades

I like playing this spades game except there are no achievements at the end of each game you can look at. Nowhere shows wins and losses and during the game you can't see how many bags you have accumulated so you can avoid a penalty. Otherwise it is enjoyable to play and I have to admit some of the ads are informative. This game can be played offline and there are no real people to play against. The best parts the bots are not that smart.

Good game, it's what you would want from spades, missing solo features, but Ai partner is competent, and if you understand the bet, you'll be able to read your partner well. All in all, it's a good time-killer. I'm not particularly fond of the frequency of ads, however. It would be nice to get through a full without ads after every hand, but most are skippable relatively quickly, so it's not the end of the world.

This app is absolutely fixed I've played it at least 30 to 40 times and every time I get to 499 it gives me a red remark I have lost a hundred points or more for some reason they always make up a reason this company doesn't make any sense why do they want to always win or have the computer win. I am so discouraged with this company I would blow them off the face of the map if I could for there absolute mismanagement and fraudulent play. I do not recommend this game for anyone! It's fixed!

I'm searching for another spades game right after I uninstall this piece of junk. No doubt the majority of losses are due to the algorithm of a simpleton. Strategy doesn't exist in this game as your partner only has a one-track way to play. Add to this the ridiculous overbidding, underbidding, trapping, etc., etc. and you have what amounts to a joyless time waster. You can have a commanding lead but that will be ruined in no time as you'll always be playing against three opponents.

The game is fun but it has some issues. When I first installed it I could see the scores from each hand but then it stopped doing that. Also, if it pulls up the wrong card you're stuck with it. My "partner" can't bid worth a darn and it causes us to get a lot of bags. If I take a chance when I see my partner and the other team bid real low, it bites me in the butt. Can't open the menu most of the time. But...the game is FREE and fun. I win 80% of the time.

Please stop the cheating. I like this App, if it would work correctly then I would give it more stars. I have lost numerous tricks (books) to my trumping in and it gives the trick to the person on my right. Also, have seen too much of someone trumping because they are out of that Suite then turn around and play it the next hand. Also, please add a feature where you can go Boston, first 6 tricks only time you can lead with Spades. Latest update 11/08/20 sucks, steals more tricks.

I enjoy playing this game. My biggest problem is that my "partner" drives me crazy. "She" constantly underbids, causing us a lot of extra bags, which knocks our points down frequently. I usually find myself bidding extra for her. However, when she bids high, she usually does not have the cards to make her bid, so I have to bid less than I would bid myself. It does make it challenging, which probably is a good thing and helps the game stay interesting. I find myself yelling at her a lot.

Better than the others but still has bugs. At least your partner doesn't cut your trick unnecessarily like others but I've noticed high cards tend to be played. For example, a player throws an ace and my partner plays the king when they have lower cards. The flaw costs tricks and sometimes we don't make our bids. Also, every once in awhile the scores go haywire. Otherwise great game.

Pretty good app. Sometimes there is a long ad between hands, but the app starts quickly, so you can just close the app and reopen to avoid the ad. Also, I've seen at least twice a bug in the scorekeeping. One time I had 10 bags and it reset to 0 without subtracting any points. One other time, I had 7 bags, made my bid to win the game and it randomly subtracted 100 points.

It's a good implementation of Spades. Suggestions: 1) I wish there were a way to redisplay the last hand played. If it disappears too soon it's gone forever. 2) I wish it arranged the hands red, black, red, black, rather than red red black black. 3) I wish it kept count of cumulative games won. Instead, each game is counted separately. With these changes it would be a 5.

The developers of this app seem to REALLY love ads. They love it so much that they throw one in your face after every hand ends. Not only are the ads annoyingly redundant, they also slow the pace of the game. If the AI was better, perhaps the ads would be worth it. But since the AI is terrible at bidding, I'm not about to sacrifice additional time watching a million ads. I am promptly uninstalling it.

It has the best layout. Easy to see the cards. You can hold the phone vertically. I wish there was an option to change partners, players, and difficultly. My partner often makes bad decisions. If I have the trick the bot will override me with a higher card but then lead a lower card of the same suit. Some of the bots play cards that don't make sense. They are talking across the table. Too often the opponents will both bid 1 card and loads us up with a lot of bags. Im addicted.

The game functions fine. The ads after every other hand are annoying, but I understand their reason for existing. I've played a LOT of Spades in my lifetime (I'm creeping up on 40). I find mobile Spades games to be nearly unplayable after 5 or 6 hands because the AI doesn't have the capacity to bid their hand. If it doesn't underbid, it doesn't make the bid. It's highly improbable to pull off nils and blinds due to the AI's inability to play smart and/or cover. I'll keep searching.

There are wayyyy too many ads. After each round an ad pops up and can last as long as 30 seconds..longer than a round of spades. I love playing spades and definitely know how to play pro, but they give you a partner (same one over & over) doesn't know how to bid. You don't get to choose your team mate. Other than these 2 major complaints, its a time killer. It does need some options thats for sure.

It's pretty fun to play. I understand that games need to have ads to keep them free. But I don't think you need to have an ad, especially a long ad, after every single hand. Maybe back off of us a little or have a purchase of ad free. Also a moving ad at the bottom of the game is so annoying and off-putting I'll opt to not play for awhile going it'll go away by the time I'm back. Thanks for the game though, I miss playing cards with my friends.

I like the larger graphics and fact that it shows you a complete scoreboard. However, these 3 annoyances far outweigh these two positives: 1. You cannot rotate the game to landscape orientation, so the cards are smooshed together. 2. Ads for other games pop up within one second after the scoreboard appears at the end of each hand (soooooo annoying). 3. You can't just click the card once to "play"; you have to double-click. Why is that? All 3 are annoying.

Love your layout. I like the options for choosing opponents, rules, etc.. I just like the overall feel of your version of Spades. Unfortunately, I have to uninstall. The length and amount of ads is insane. A full 30 second ad after each hand, outrageous. I can't find an option to pay to remove ads which I would happily do. This makes me sad as it took forever to find an offlune version that I like.
