    Love the game! Played on my iPhone for a years, then started playing on my iPad. Love the music played on iPad. Only critique would be the portrayal of the African man.

    The game play is okay. It’s insulting that Africa is deemed a country rather than a continent (containing more countries than Europe). It’s hard to distinguish between the male & female wild cards. Both probably reflect the original game. The app is easy to use.
  • Fantastic and puzzler solo and in multiplayer

    Lord do I love this app and the real game. If you like a game that is laid back, easy to play, but is a strategic game that does the math and rules for you in a playful way, give this a go—there’s a reason it won awards in real life (and is still in print). A great game and a wonderful digital version that has a dedicated solo mode included with it. Try closing two tables at once and pick up major points.
  • Annoying stereotypical voices

    I love the game but the voices are so stereotypical of cultures that it becomes infuriating

    This is a very clever card game. Super easy to learn and play, but it does take some strategic thinking. I play solo, and I love that there are different options for solo: solitaire, or against the AI, which is very smart. Everything works flawlessly. And I appreciate the fair price with no ads or IAP. I’m glad there are good developers like this out there. This is one of my favorite phone card games now. The only thing to be aware of is, on a phone, the flag icons on the cards are very small. Once you’re more familiar with the cards, however, that becomes less of an issue. Still, many people would probably prefer this on an iPad, especially if eyesight is an issue. Thanks for a great game!
  • Awesome implementation
