Spades Classic Card Game 4+

The bots are smart, but not too smart. They’ll remember when a suit has been cut by spades previously by the other team. Your partner and opponents play the hand smart when there’s a NIL involved, but not so smart that they auto predict each others hands, you can still break your opponents nils. The ads are just the pop up and close ads, not the annoying ones you have to watch and hit the x to get out of 3-4 times to close it. No ads during gameplay just between hands/after games. Overall a smooth, aesthetically pleasing offline spades game.

What would be awesome in a spades app would be the ability to play different modes, or make your own rules. I know lots of people play spades differently, like if you bid 10(dime) on your first hand and get it it’s an automatic win, or if you bid 10 you get 200 points instead of 100. I didn’t notice a blind nil option in this game but I might’ve overlooked it. Lots of people play joker joker deuce ace, and I’ve yet to see a spades app have the option to run that version of the game instead of just ace high. A pass and play mode would be nice, or a way to directly invite a partner/opponent

One of the reasons this is such an appealing game is there are a number of choices I, as a human player, can make in each round that has an effect in the game. The Mware Hearts is not as “friendly”. It’s programmed to give the human player the Queen of Spades almost every hand. You’d never know there are four players that she might be distributed to… Back to Spades. My frustration is with the ultimate tier as I’ve made it to the top position. I did that with Hearts, as well, but am less interested because of the programming with the unwanted Q-spades. Mind you, it takes a lot of time to get to the top of the Grand tier, in either. My complaint is, once there, at the moment in Spades, another player, in this instance nearest in points, “Trunks” is 40 points behind me. Suddenly, in a few minutes, is back equal with me, who took several hours to pass “Trunks”. There is NO WAY in actual playing that could happen. Instantaneous 40 point leap in moments when it takes a human several hours to get 40 points?? Takes the “joy” of my accomplishment out of the game when preprogrammed competitors are given vast point movements that in reality human ones have to temporally work through. I do love Mobilityware games, overall❤️❣️Corrected.

This app was fun at the beginning. Once I reached Platinum level the computer begins to cheat. I can give 2 examples. Up until this level, your computer partner didn’t hurt your chances. However, at this level, the computer partner routinely over bids causing you to lose rounds and ultimately the game. Also, at the Platinum level, the computer team that you are playing against routinely leads off with a queen when you have a king and the other computer team partner they have has the ace. So, in normal cards, the king could typically take the second round but, with the cheating they do, they play the queen, so if you play the king, then the other player takes the ace and they win that round and you don’t have your king. If you let it pass you by then the other computer player won’t play their ace, the computer wins the round with the queen, then they win the next round with the Ace, making your king of no value. This happens regularly letting you know they are cheating because in spades you don’t know what your partner has but the computer, controlling all three of the other players, clearly begins to manipulate the card play at the platinum level. i’m so glad I didn’t pay the $10 to go add free for six months. I was holding off to see if the game would begin cheating and, now that it does, I’m deleting the app after writing this review.
