App Profile: Cribbage Pegboard

I wholeheartedly agree with all of the positive comments from other reviewers. Undo button is unnecessary. Simply drag the peg backwards if you inadvertently pull your peg or your opponent's peg too far. Still, to that point, I love the suggestion to use tracks 1 and 3 if only 2 players. It would make it both easier to see the pegs and less likely to pull the opponent's. Only negative, unless I'm missing it, is skunking opponent only nets you one victory in the scoreboard, not two.

We had a great experience using this on a flight recently when we left the board in the checked luggage but had a deck of cards on hand. Though we have the same challenge as others with moving pegs, it’s easily fixed and made us pay attention to the score. We used the discard analyzer a few times on my husband’s phone after completing hands. It was easy to use but seemed to not always be accurate. Example: I had a 4 card run at one point and it says max score for that hand was 2, which then led us to question the accuracy of the analytics. Aesthetically, the wood board choices are more attractive than others apps I see. Overall, it’s a fabulous free app to use when you have the cards but not the board! Thank you!

Gets the job done. Fairly easy to use. Real board is still significantly better because "touch screen" can become a problem with grabbing wrong pegs, but I can see the convenience of being able to have a board on you wherever. I don't play THAT much and any place I go on vacation where I'd want to play I'm smart enough to bring a board. At home I obviously have one. By far the biggest problem is not being able to listen to music. Idk about everyone else but when I'm playing cards with friends I'm listening to music; on ski trips, bachelor parties, hanging out with family... music is always a plus if not necessity and this game doesn't let you do both.
