Canasta - Online & offline 12+

BIG Pet Peeve

I love this game. There are a few flaws, but the worst one for me is when I am playing 4 players(not live). My partner, inevitably, discards a card that we have melded. We have 4 jokers showing and she discards a joker. EVERY SINGLE TIME the next player picks it up!! Really? Why is it programmed like this? Very frustrating.

OK…another big problem with this game is that my partner waits til the very,very end to play her cards..a.does she know she has a partner? Very, very poor programming. Does the programmer even know how to play canasta????

Please, switch your partner to 3 stars in the Settings. That strategy melds too early for our taste, but some players prefer it for a partner.

Has some flaws update

I’ve been playing against the computer and have noticed a few issues. One is that it sets down two cards with two wilds and it’s allowed. My understanding is that there must always be MORE of the other card in the meld than there are wild cards. Also, when I’ve picked up the pile, on more than one occasion I only received one card when there should have been more cards there. The first few times I played, the computer was setting down way too many canastas too soon - they couldn’t have had that many cards yet. I haven’t noticed that so much the last several times I’ve played.
Update:
The computer repeatedly picks up the pile and then does not play the top card. It also picks it up when it doesn’t have the required two in its hand to play. For instance, my last two discards are 7s. It picks up the pile and sets down 5 sevens. Then I discard another 7. It picks that one up too, but since its Canasta is still not complete, clearly it did not have 2 more in its hand to justify picking it up.
It mimics anything you do that succeeds, like if you go out immediately after getting your first Canasta, it proceeds to do the same on all subsequent hands, making it just a race to one canasta the rest of the time you play continuously. That’s irritating, but the cheating just takes all the fun out of the game.
Phooey.

RUSSIAN *BOYCOT THIS APP*

The moderators will always say suggested turn off table talk which I have turned off however it will not go off this is a highly volatile app and I believe that they’re using peoples accounts for illegal activities! I am reporting this to the FBI. I am in the process of taking care of things with Apple. We cannot trust these Russian companiesJust to show you how sick this app is the developer uses the name of a serial rapist in Russia !!! This app is hackers paradise it’s Crooked and will suspend you if they don’t like something you’ve said it has nothing to do with profanity it has to do with control just like Russia it’s communist! If you support Russia then go ahead and play with this app because it’s evil! However if you’re against Russia leave this app it needs to be banned from the Internet. I have gotten suspended for nothing in the past this time they suspended me pickles I told the hacking moderator I was gonna put a curse on her 😂😂 The truth of the matter is they did me a favor I will not reinstall this app I want nothing to do with such a negative vibrational energy this app is full of hackers and other criminals as you say look at the name that the developer picked it just shows you how disturbed and sick this app is.

Depends on what you mean by turning off Table Talk:
- If you want to turn it off for everyone at your table, you can do it through chat commands
- If you want to switch off table talk messages of other players just for you, open Settings\Sounds & Vibration and switch Table Talk to zero
- If you want to turn off your own microphone, so that you do not tap it accidentally, open your phone's Settings, scroll to Canasta and turn off microphone permission. App will not be able to access your microphone even if you press a microphone icon in the game.
