Spades Stars is a great card game for anyone who enjoys the classic game of Spades. The app has a simple, easy-to-use design, perfect for both beginners and experienced players. The matches are quick, and playing online against real people makes every game feel unique. I like that you can earn coins and rewards by completing challenges, although sometimes if you lose a few games in a row, you run out of coins pretty fast. Overall, it’s a fun, competitive game — perfect for passing the time.

The worst feature of this game is that after you have played long enough to build up lots of trophies, the game locks up and will not proceed. This time, the game starts and you get to proceed a step or two, then the game shuts off. You restart, it goes a step or two, and the game shuts off. Rebooting repeatedly is no help. Offloading the app and reinstalling, twice, does not help. All you can do is totally delete the app and ALL your data. Then if you reinstall, you have to start all over again. Highly unpleasant annoyance. The second worst is that you’re not given enough time to formulate your bid. (This might only be if you have certain options set. There is a workaround: you can restart the round with the same cards by watching a video.)The best features of this game are that the graphics are fine, the scores are accurate, and the game play is good. However, the skill of the computer players is pitiful. Your partner will often make you take a trick when you have bid nil. Also, your partner will take sandbags unnecessarily after both teams have already made the bid. However, the opponents are programmed to often make stupid mistakes also, so you usually dowin. If you can find a better spades app, stick with it. Otherwise, this one is OK.

I used to really enjoy playing this game and accepted that I would need to see ads in between GAMES! However, the greed to put ads IN the game has made this game unfit for me to play more than one game. I play maybe one game a day, only to get the points in my other game which pays me to play. I very much would like to see someone in charge-you know the guy or gal getting paid an obscene salary, and explain that by interrupting the actual game with ads you are probably losing more players than are downloading the advertised games, etc. I’ll keep checking back, but you must know there are other great Spades games out there and when I find the one which values its players and wants to keep them, then I won’t even come back to check this game. A good swift boot to the backside of whoever thought interrupting the game with ads, was a good idea 🥾👢

This app is great for fast gameplay but I seriously doubt the validity of the humanness of the players. After playing this game for quite some time, I’ve noticed several patterns of dumb behavior that an experienced player would not do. In addition, the gameplay is much too fast to be real players. If you’ve ever been on any of the other apps, you’ll notice that players stall and disappear. It never happens with this game, that’s great for fast play, but it lends itself to doubt of real players. Also, if somebody busts your nil, or you miss your bid, you can pay to change it or you can watch a video. Why is it that when I bust somebody else’s nil, there’s never the 30 second pause before the game continues while they watch their video? Oh yeah, it’s because they are AI.
