Spades is awesome; game is not. PART 3
This is a review update:
(Previous Reviews Below)
Well the developer managed to fix slot of the main bugs. I personally am not having problems and am not directly effected with/by crashes. I am however displeased with the update delay after numerous posts via the developer stating update coming within weeks, which was nearly a month ago. I am pleased enough to at least be able to play it without bugs kicking me out. I would still like to blind bid myself without being behind.I would like some sort of tally or keeping track of bags. I wouldnt mind view last played hand. And I liked the automatic fan feature in hearts. That could be useful for the people complaining about the small cards. I also would like my partner to play an ace of spades when I bid nil after I go and not before. They still need some more brain power. On the plus side its a step in the right direction. Ill be willing to give this 4 stars as soon as its in its stability stage. I know developing takes time though so thanks.
2nd Review
Okay, so....I find it to be extremely disrespectful to the iPhone community for a developer to write their own reviews, I have completed an official complaint to apple iTunes store and I suggest you do so as well. My previous review was at two stars based on logical legitimate concerns for the app. Thats the point for a review, to say what you feel needs to be done or what is good. For a developer to give themselves their own five stars simply to state an update is coming, is disrespectful to the community. Thats what description section is for. I have read previous reviews and understand that the updates are coming, but im not going to give a better review simply because we know its coming, it could have just as many problems, who knows. and to whoever says they think other competition is coming and writing bad reviews is clueless. there is only one other spades game and one other hearts game. For a developer to write their own 5 star review, not once, but twice!!!! just to state that an update is coming is ridiculous. Although, that should tell the iphone app users something itself. However, I am thankful for the time the developer has put into the games.
Previous Review:
Personally, I bought this game already having bought hearts from the same developer, knowing what I would get. If there were more versions out there I would tell you to look around. Sadly, there is not. I dont like the layout or interface, its too cheesy. I knew what I was buying when I bought because I have hearts but still. Its cheesy, especially the bowl of spaghetti or whatever it is. It could be sharper. Thats not what my review is about though because I bought it knowing what I was getting, only because there is no other options. My review is based on some of the things or people have pointed out. Like the players being dumb with their nils. They are not good in general. I dont like how it suggests to you what you should bid. I dont like how Ive played some games and my opponets have gone up to -736, thats negative. There should be a limit. It also needs to change the font size for what people have bidded and have them facing all one way. Also there should be a reset game action. There should also be a see last played hand button in hearts and spades. Other than that it would be a really decent game to advertise to my friends. Maybe add in multiplayer feature sometime when you get the chance.
