Spades - Classic Card Game

I have played several of the games in the App Store, but they seem like they were designed by someone who has a different way of playing the game, and Mrs. the strategy of the game. I have seen where someone lead a book with an ace and a king is thrown on the eighth, and the player has a lower that they could’ve played with the ace. That sort of playing just throws the whole game off of me, but I’m from New Orleans, and I know we play and do things differently, and everyone has a different way of playing spades, but that does not make sense to ME. The only thing is I wish you could change the game and the players, that would be wonderful and make the game much more interesting. Thank you. I really am enjoying this game.

The game and even the thumbnail of this App is truly offensive to me . I’m not sure who approves apps to be put on this platform but somewhere the marketing team completely missed the mark on this one. For starters this is a card came why would there be a need for 3 male people of color in stereotypical manner be the thumbnail for this CARD GAME? Secondly I saw the advertisement for this game in another game I was playing and it once again displayed a large black man with all the stereotypes you could imagine sitting across from what appeared to be a white female hand . Is this how you choose to market to people? It seems that whoever developed this app has some pre conceived notions of people of color and it’s very negative. I only downloaded this app because I was appalled of the advertisement for this game that came through my other game I was playing. It left such a sour feeling with me that I chose to leave a comment. Shame on the developers for creating such vile, stereotypical, and downright offensive product. And shame on Apple for allowing this sort of thing so slip through the where the young and old could be offended by this app. Despite deleting this app I will also be seeking legal action to have this offensive material removed and ensure nothing like this makes it through on this platform again. DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS APP!!!!!!

Don’t know what happened to this app, but it’s turned into a lazy man’s money-making till that I deleted today, after a couple years of using it. It’s devolved into a maddening game in which the same exact few hands are dealt over and over and over again, and the only thing that changes is which team gets an excessive number of high cards and which gets an excessive number of spades. Team One bids on the high cards they have, only to be absolutely overrun with spades from the other team. Then it’s changed in the reverse, Team Two bids on the high cards they have, only to be absolutely overrun with spades from the other team. This routinely results in 15 tricks being bid every hand, and the annoyance & frustration that comes with not being able to win for losing, except when the game is rigged in your favor (ie, when your team has the majority of the spades and the other team has the majority of the high cards). Did I pay for this? Yes, in the sense that I absolutely waited for ads to run their course, and that I sometimes downloaded other games from the same developer. This developer has made money off of my time, attention & downloading other games; I expect at a minimum, a decent game in return. I’d give the game — and the developer — a minus 10 stars if I could, just because of their greed.
