It's a good app, that would be much better if it adhered to the proper time settings. When I set a game to 10mins. it often adds time during play instead of subtracting, which can make a game last forever. It's also annoying how opponents sometimes bump out for up to 2mins. (disconnected) and are then allowed to bump back in without losing time. If an opponent disconnects, they should lose the match.

Sore-losers leave game & make u wait for time to expire. Update: lowered from 2 to 1 star. LOVED this app for years, but might let it go. They give too much power to the ads. When ads can hijack my phone & keep me from closing the ad, that's too much. Or, when I have to jump thru hoops to close ad, but it keeps redirecting back to playstore when you click the "x". News flash developers... if I clicked the "x", I don't want the app, more so, it means I want to close it. Why not respect that??

I used to enjoy this app, but now the excessively intrusive ads make it impossible to take it serious. The placement of the ad doesn't even make sense, it is while you are waiting for your match to begin, the least likely time that you will click on an ad, even if you are interested. But they guarantee that you will click on it by accident though because the button to exit out of the ad is so small that you constantly miss it and click the ad itself. At least offer a paid version with no ads.
