Ratings and Reviews
Congratulations
Well done! You listened and it is back to the app we all enjoyed for years.
Developer Response ,
Thanks for your considered and eloquent review.
Dishonest
Rigs tournament deals, gives the impression that Omar Sharif endorsed this app even though it’s bridge play is terrible and they delete negative reviews so don’t believe the ratings. Notice how few reviews have appeared in the last year? I have had 2 negative reviews deleted. Developer is only creating an app to provide income not authentic bridge play. In response to your reply, none of the reviews that disappeared had inappropriate language but I understand that the App Store has had problems with disappearing reviews. It is something of a “co-incidence” that of my reviews that disappeared the thing they had in common was that they were critical of the game. If this has been commonplace it is only fair that prospective buyers be aware that the ratings may not be reliable. I said the deals were rigged: to expand, the distribution of the cards is often deliberately fixed against the player (e.g. holding queen in my hand, the opponent on my left will typically hold the king making a finesse impossible - other reviewers have noted this). Real (authentic) bridge has random deals even in duplicate bridge. Playing games where the distribution is predictable makes for extremely dull play.
Developer Response ,
How exactly is the game going to manage to 'rig' tournament deals when it delivers exactly the same ID to all players in the same tournament - so all players get exactly the same hands?.
Perhaps you can elaborate on exactly what you consider 'authentic Bridge play' and where the app does not meet your expectations?
As for deleting reviews, developers simply don't have access to delete any reviews, only Apple can do that + they will normally only delete reviews that contain inappropriate language.
Next hand play hand selection to close - now fixed!!
Have played this app for years but the latest update you can hardly select between Next hand and Play hand - consequently pressing the wrong option - why are the icons about 2mm wide?
