Pitch (Hi Low Jack‪)‬ 4+

No ability to change game settings

I wanted to remove the dealers ability to steal the low bid, but all my efforts failed. I also wanted to allow all players to pass if desired, but this option is not offered. I can live with that, but not with the first . What is the problem?

Developer Response ,

There are a wide variety of rules you can customize. The rules shown DURING A GAME are for information purposes only. You have to start a new game with the rules you want.

In your case, select "additional games" from main menu, then "create new pitch game". Here you can customize all the game rules, including dealer's ability to steal low bid. Once you get the setting the way you like, save it as your own custom game. Then you play that version.

All players can pass in the bid dialog EXCEPT the dealer who has to bid if no one else did.

Solid

For those of you who play pitch, this is a solid game. AI is decent so there is a challenge. Minor things could make this better such as multi-player, not having to specifically select trump cards (just make it first card played) and not auto playing cards when no choice….but really minor in the scale of needed improvements. Overall a good solid game for those of you who like the game itself. Probably the best one available on the App Store In relation to graphics, gameplay and experience.

Cheaters

There are hands where an auto player plays off suit for trump lead to later take last hand with a trump card. I noticed something up several times then one game I knew absolutely. My hand was all one suit except one card. 4th set no trump suit for all auto players. Then auto player takes last set with trump suit and point for low.
