Thirty One Rummy

I’m rating this a 4 because I absolutely love it! It’s so simple and easy to learn for any beginners that would be interested. However I think it needs a little more excitement! Maybe like a room you can win more claw bucks. I noticed there were different themes but you could also make more money from the app by offering more things to buy, like different backs on the cards, create my own theme like have a white room and I could go in and buy wallpaper and tables and pick some decorations for the room but everything is elegantly done. At the end of the day, it’s all about that money my friend! Think about it!! There is soo much more this app could be!!

It’s a very challenging game! Not easy to win. Just like playing a real game w/live players. However, having to watch ads for 17-30 seconds and longer because the ads switch screens extending the ad and delaying game play time for absolutely no reward is aggravating to say the least. On top of stalling playing time, the same ads that are of no interest play over and over! When players get nothing for watching, ads should not exceed 5 seconds. When there's a payoff to the player, 10 seconds is plenty. If players are interested, we'll open the ad. Why watch 17-30 seconds time after time after time? BORING 😴💤💤💤

The game is decent overall: play runs smoothly and it’s easy to move through a game. The commercials after every hand are a bit “2014”, but I assume they think players are there to constantly and continuously desire other games. Which we aren’t, of course. However, the biggest issue is this: it’s unrealistic. Having played 31 since I was a kid, the competing hands knocking after 1 draw over 60-70% of the time with a 27, 28, 30 - whatever - just does not happen in 31. It’s coded so that the more “advanced” you move up in the game, the shorter the timeframe on knocking. Again, unrealistic. The real game just doesn’t progress that way. My suggestion is that the developers actually PLAY the card game for real.

This game could be fun if it was realistic. Apparently the developers have never played 31 using a deck of cards. It is not possible that every hand dealt is going to be a good one. It is impossible for me to win because the dealing is skewed in favor of my computer opponents. In real life it may happen once in a blue moon that a player will be dealt a knockable hand, but this computer game deals a winning hand right off the bat to one of my opponents and I do not even get one chance to build up my hand. So frustrating! A game should be fun, and to be fun you have to win, at least sometimes. Why would you create a game that makes people delete it from their iPad? Wouldn’t your desire be to have them love it so much they would want to pay for improvements and extras? This is a waste of time! It doesn’t even deserve one star!

The difference between the levels is how many chips you start with. Seems kind of silly to play with 4 chips while the others have two. So I’ve been playing at the hard level where all players have 4 chips. I’ve played 12 games and haven’t won a single round. Playing against the computer allows for a certain percentage of wins, at least that’s how most games are, so just exactly what percent is this game programmed for?? I gave up and deleted it. You could tell after a few hands which “player” was going to win. Waste of time.
