Ratings and Reviews
Card Shark Collection
Overall, I quite like this collection. It includes one of the better versions of canasta (albeit that you cannot go out if you have any black 3's - even 3 of them) however, I would like in future upgrades for the ability to select a skill level of opponent. Being set at a single level is frustrating as, within a few hands, one can predict a method of play and thereby, beat the computer. Good pasttime though, and a really good (and expanding) collection of solos and against-the-computer card games that can keep you occupied for hours.
Value for money? Yes, I think it is and, going by previous versions' reviews, the writers are listening and improving the product. Not far to go to make this a 5 star game rather than my 4 stars
I Dislike the Hearts Card Game in this Collection
I bought this collection specifically for the Hearts card game. I am very disappointed. It is quite easy, enabling a player to score high percentage success. The play by the system sometimes seems illogical if one expects it to be playing to win, rather than to let you win. I am seeking a new Hearts game.
I have not played any of the other games in this collection so cannot give a view other than for Hearts.
Card Shark collection
Great collection of games but the rules for the games are not very good, does not explain enough. In future updates is it possible to give us the ability to change skill levels.
