About this game

A fun, realistic 3d outdoor deck shuffleboard game set in a beautiful tropical resort.

How to play:

In deck or floor shuffle board, players use a cue, to slide their disks down the court, attempting to land within a marked scoring areas.

1. Press down on disks and swipe up in the direction you want them to go.

2. Swipe farther and faster to push with more power.

3. Try to land in a scoring area or knock out your opponent.

The disks are of two colors (yellow and black), each color belonging to a player (you versus the computer).

The scoring areas are divided by lines, into six zones: 10, 8, 8, 7, 7, 10-off. After all 8 disks have been played from one end of the court (a frame), the final score values for each player in the scoring zones is assessed: If a disk is completely within a scoring zone without touching (overlapping) any part of the border-line of the zone, it is good and that zone value is added to the correct player's score for the frame, and then to the player's total points.

History:

Although the origins of shuffleboard are unknown, the game has been played for over 500 years, and was a favorite of King Henry VIII of England, who prohibited commoners from playing.

Ratings and reviews

I'll admit the controls on this game let you shoot the pucks more accurately than the other shuffleboard apps I've found on the play store. But the camera angle makes it harder to aim. And the frame rate is laggy, I don't mind a low frame rate especially for a mobile app, but this is just ridiculous. Graphics would be tolerable if the other aspects of the game were fixed.

The game in itself is fun, BUT the controls are totally messed up like the developer didn't get all the bugs out.. The following are problems I've had experienced while playing this game 1) tried to change from yellow to black disks are the game kept changing it back to yellow. 2) It shoots and scores even when I don't touch the board. Score kept in wrong color slot while playing. Otherwise game is fun..

I really enjoyed this game until this latest update. It totally ruined the game. The board isn't dark green anymore and looks more like a grid and the pucks or whatever you call them, suddenly stop, it's not a nice clean glide to a stop anymore. Don't like the game anymore at all.
