Programming needs improvement
Thu Dec 05 2024 Forgot2Count

The spades game is better in that they don't have silly characters and functions. What it could use is better programming. If I bid Nil, my partner should not take unnecessary tricks with a high spade and then make me constantly set. If my partner and I make our tricks and we cannot set the other team, the partner is not programmed to throw off their cards and would rather get bags and bag us out. If the partner sees I'm throwing away because we made our bid, they should throw away with me but they would rather get bags and bags. It's reminding me of my old Yahoo Games days where you're playing with newbies who don't know any strategy. There should also be an option to win by 500 regardless of the score. I was really enjoying this at first but can't get past my computer partner constantly losing the hands most of the time with plays that are obviously avoidable.

Absolutely Terrible Game
Wed Aug 21 2024 MurraySAE

I have played this game many times because I love Spades, but my frustration with playing with a partner who is an imbecile with no understanding of the game has finally done it for me and I am looking for a different app. I have beaten the game over 90% of the time, but only because I set it to 750 to give me enough time to make up for my partner’s mistakes and have learned how to compensate for its terrible playing. None of the computer players are smart and it may be fine for a total beginner just learning the game, but my partner has no understanding of the bag rule or bidding or playing against nils. You have no idea how frustrating it is to smell out where the nil player has a problem only for your partner to trump when the nil player has the trick. And it neither covers you when you go nil or ever makes a nil since it will go nil on anything, even a two-card suit headed by a king, even when you are winning the game. I find myself constantly cussing my partner, which is of course ridiculous, but I am not sure how the programmer made my partner so dumb? And if the game is close, the computer has no understanding of scoring. For instance, in a situation where we have to bid 5 together or lose the game, it will bid 3 or 4 when combined with my bid so that you can turn the game off there. If I could give it zero stars I would.

Adjustments needed

I really love spades & I play a lot. I’ve gotten very familiar with your app. I’ve seen several issues while playing. Obviously, whoever made this or manages this app does not actually use the app or they would notice these issues! #1 my “partner” (a bot) will sometimes bid a high number with obviously no intention or ability to take the tricks. #2 If I bid nil & I’m the lead player, I will lead with a 2 of hearts. My bot partner will inevitably cover it with a ace of hearts. Then, later in the hand someone throws another heart. I am forced to throw my jack of hearts, my bot partner then throws a ten of hearts. Why didn’t it throw the 10 out when I only had a 2 of hearts on the table? These bots are playing on a moronic level. Another issue is it does not keep score correctly!! There are MANY MANY mistakes!!! It’s not consistent in the mistakes it makes either! They are all over the board!!! Sometimes, it deducts 100 points from both sides when only one side has gone over bags. I have renamed my “partner” DUMBF!! You have a good game here. You just need to make some adjustments!! I actually came here to see if you had any updates for this app. I can’t believe you didn’t know about these issues already!!!

HORRIBLE AI
Thu Feb 24 2022 Fluffy Beard

I’m an above average Spades player. But I lose in this app 75% of the time due to the partner AI. It 1) overbids regularly, 2) underbids regularly, 3) trashes off & gets set on the same hand, 4) will not attempt to cover when you’ve obviously been cut [ie. your ace gets cut first card of the suit and it trashed off later in the game] 5) will play the “bag ‘em” game. 6) will bid a nil while holding the king or queen of spades after you’ve bid a 2. 7) And, with me bidding nil [1 >10 spade and no face cards], I just had it run out all the spades early in the game (6 cards left after all spades exhausted) while still holding cards > a 5 and a total bid of >10 and then lead out with a sub 5 card. It played the hand as if it was trying to set the other team that had a 2 bid because it was playing the “bag ‘em” game or like it was on the other team trying to set me. We lost 200 points on a single hand. It set my nil and took all the bags put us into the bag penalty. I’ve also had it get set with an 8 bid and fail to cover a nil (it had a higher card to play that would have covered me) resulting in a 180 point loss on a single hand. IRL, I would quit the game, leave the table and never play spades with you at the table again. This game is now getting deleted from my device.

Bidding

Does the person or persons who created this game know how to play spades?! Does he/she understand the concept? I love playing spades! This games makes me hate playing spades! The creator needs to do more in the area of the computer players being able to bid their hand. The computer players either extreeeeeemley overbid or under bid🤬🤬🤬. The only reason I gave this game two stars is because like I said I looooooove playing spades. I play to kill time. I really wanted to give this game no stars but I figured I would give this game the benefit of the doubt but really please work on this problem. I am really considering deleting this game and try another but I will give it more time to see if you fix the problem. Oh and one more thing this really pisses me off. If I have 4 books and count every one of them and my partner says he/she has two books but in actuality has more but let the opponents books walk and cut half of my books. This in itself is enough for me to uninstall this game. 🤬Looking forward to updates.

The partner has no logic or rhyme to it

I enjoy spades and this game can be fun but more and more I find the “partner” seriously overbids there hand they may say seven and not have single card that will take a single book. You have to bid you hand and your partners without seeing their cards. I have never seen such horrible ways to bid hands. I would give 5 star rating it the algorithm is fixed to simple logic you have five spades means your are taking one back ok unless they are all high. A Queen is never a counted win unless it’s a spade with lots others. The last few hands now matter what I have played loss nearly every hand but you have to bid 1 or you go back 100. Okay board is 4 that means four between a team not zero or three. Four you either bid four or more. Never seen any of these so called rules played out before. The fact that you and partner can both go nil is stupid.

Partner

This is a fun game but your partner is the absolute worst. The computer programming makes your partner an absolute idiot. They are a burden and just plain dumb. Who throws a low card when you are betting nil and has a high card in their hand? Who throws an off suit card when they have tons of spades to cover you? Who is just an absolute piece of junk? If this were real life my partner would be playing solitaire alone in a corner cause they are not an asset at all. Any who, if you want to download this game that’s great, but keep in mind, your partner is getting paid under the table to ensure you are not successful. Your partner is like the guy who doesn’t tell anyone they were bit by a zombie. Your partner is the person that eats all the corners and edges of all the brownies. Your partner is the person that doesn’t leave you a piece of pizza. Do better.

Horrible table awareness
Sat Oct 05 2024 Dukes226

Your partner is a moron everytime when you bid nil, your partner throws low cards even when they know you bid nil and they have a card that will stop you from failing the bid. Also when the other team bids nil the partner with throw high cards constantly when they have a card to break the opponent’s bid. Your partner will constantly cut your throat on the table and take books you already are gonna win. The partner also will not feed you suits your cutting. The partner also will over and under bid very often causing you to get set when you bid your hand right. I mean I like the mechanics of the game and I get you can’t have all these things perfect running with a computer partner, but the amount of mistakes the partner makes I’d be better off having my 2 year old throwing spades with me.
