Riverboat Gambler

I tested the 8 deck blackjack and, sure enough, after 7 decks worth of cards were played it reshuffled. I says to myself, “This is a pretty realistic blackjack simulator.” The distribution of cards was quite even, as would be expected from a good shuffle, but is not predictable. Also, bankrolls do not go into the billions of credits like other casino apps. I’m trying to learn the mechanics of a real casino game with Riverboat not be in la-la land with billions of credits like other casino apps. Also (big one) Riverboat does not sap you for more credits once your initial bankroll is gone. You can buy credits or watch ads and earn credits, or try a different game and after 10 hands get some bonus credits. If you want to learn about real games like Pai Gow or Black Jack or Texas Hold Em, you can do that here. The only thing I question is that ace/ten pays 3 to 2 after splits. I’m pretty sure in a real casino this is not Black Jack but is 21 and pays even money - just sayin’. Thanks for the great app.

I wanted to take some time and write this review for this great app, but wanted to specifically highlight my great experience when contacting the developer with my particular issue. I encountered a slight problem with Pai Gow and how the bonus hands were being paid out. Basically, the computer/AI was short changing me on the payout. Under normal circumstances I would have either stopped playing it as frequently or uninstalled the app altogether. Instead, I reached out to Danny since he had always written a little message on the app whenever there was a new update that got installed. Knowing that, I felt confident that I would be able to open up a dialogue with him and I was correct. He quickly emailed me back, saying that he would look into the problem and would rectify it as soon as he could. A few days later, he identified the problem and had a fix in the works. Some more days later and the app received a few more updates and he generously gave me some bonus chips as a token of his gratitude for my feedback. I felt like that was great communications between developer and user and it really bolstered my confidence in this app. I’ll continue to use the app knowing that any issues that may arise will be easily handled by Danny and his staff. Thanks for a great app and great communications! -Spencer

This app features many different casino table games. It doesn’t “over-win” you so it feels a bit to much like real life play. I like the fact that there are very few game interruptions and none of the “great win!” Graphics. There is a game missing that I would love to see added. It is called “Vegas three card poker.” It is played like standard 3 card but there is a fourth community card that is used by both player and dealer. It can change the game dramatically and that’s the fun part! There is an extra bonus on the four card spot, a bonus for your three card and of course, play and anti. One of my favorite table games.

I never write reviews for Apple apps just because I usually dislike almost all of them. This is my one exception. RBG is by far the most realistic casino game I’ve played on any platform. It’s campy but mimics a large number of games that can be found in casinos all over the US. Again, I don’t think this can’t be found anywhere on any platform. I don’t know you, “Danny,” but kudos, keep up the awesome work, and thank you for spending the time to make this app. Only suggestion would be to raise (or give the option to based on bankroll size) the table max limits beyond the $500 it’s currently at.

This is an app that appreciate other casino games besides black jack, Texas hold em, and slots. I searched for awhile to find some of the games in this app and there is every casino you’d want. If you want a simple poker app with every game you can think of this is it! Also the dev seems to be very personal and care about user feedback check all the other reviews to see how he responds to everyone. Great app, easy to follow rules, everything seems to be accurate about the games to my knowledge, it really doesn’t get much better than this app if you like casino tables.
