Canasta Jogatina: Card Games

I have played this game for quite some time. It has always had its quirks with the way the bots play the game. But with this new update, you have changed the rules and I do not appreciate having to learn your new way of playing this game that I’ve always loved. When the opponent goes out, and I don’t have a Canasta, even though I have laid down several melds, any red trays that I have accumulated get deducted from the score. That’s not how you play. Also, you don’t need the required number of points in order to take the pile. You just have to have two like cards and then you can play as many cards as you want that were in the pile to make the required number of points. That’s not how you play. I’ve had enough. This is goodbye.

I like this game but why does it automatically end a hand? I could be in the middle of laying down my cards, and poof…that hand is over. Let us play out the hand. The winner of each hand can be changed on a “dime”. I find this a very annoying aspect of the game. Stop automatically ending the hands being played. I just downloaded this game two days ago… why are wild cards being thrown at a closed canasta when another meld can be closed?

While I love the game, I have to believe that whoever designed the game had only a rudimentary knowledge of the game. Am frequently amazed at how poorly the bots play. They play the wild cards randomly, (as does my partner) often ignoring the opportunity to make a canasta, discard cards that would give the opponent a canasta, though often that player does not know to pick up. I am also occasionally dealt a red three which I cannot get rid of. I see that many of my complaints have been made by other players as long ago as two years. Obviously, there is no plan to improve the game. I must add though, that the last canasta app I downloaded was far worse than this one.
