1️⃣ Ads are a bit annoying, but not unbearable. 2️⃣ Graphics are nice. There's no lag or glitching. 3️⃣ I wish there was an option to block some annoying players. There are some frequent players in the game who use the same 5 starting moves every single time that makes it impossible to play a fair game against them. And somehow, they always get to go first. It ruins the fun bc it's robotic & repetitive. If I could block these few frequent players, I would enjoy the app instead of leaving.

One of my favorites growing up so I already knew I'd love it. There's tutorial cuz it's nothing like the real game. My MAIN PROBLEM is a big problem: when you play online and bet your coins the app freezes while loading the game. Well you close the app & reopen it and you've LOSSED 50coins because it registered you "leaving" the game. It's great when you're on the receiving end! Extremely frustrating for your games played:won ratio, & your accumulation of coins. FIX THIS FAST!!!

The game is glitchy - will kick you out for no reason in the middle of a game. This isn't a wifi issue. It happens everywhere I play the game. The game doesn't update - I still have Christmas Boards. People can "time out" if their losing and it doesn't penalize them for losing the game. No use for coins - I have 175K and have bought all the boards Is there a way to reset my score. I've played over 3,000 games but I have so many losses from getting kicked out of the game. Sometimes it will sit on the search for opponent screen for long periods of time, only to have you booted out of the game it finally starts. This is my "edited" review. 3 stars is generous.
