Ratings and reviews

Overall it is a very good game. However, with the the default settings east/west get 80% of the cards. Over several days, I have had very few hands to bid. I mostly pass. It doesn't seem very random. For that reason I am thinking about removing it!! Update: I tried it again but ended up removing it. There is an ad after every hand which is annoying. Also North's bidding is poor. It opens hands without any playing tricks and is very very conservative. It's defense ignores my signals.

It is a pleasure playing bridge with this app. I played rubber bridge for many years in the 1980's/1990's but seldom since. This app is a great way to learn the new modern bidding system as it has the capability to explain all bids and all possible responses. Opponents can be set at various levels of expertise. this app is easy on the eyes even on a cell phone. Enjoy!

Às a returning bridge player I see this earning an easy 5 stars. With the AI set at level 3 it plays a consistent, dependable game, makes hints available when requested, allows me to look at the last trick or to see all hands when I simply must cheat, and lets me go back a trick or two to test different plays. In short, it's a patient tutor, a good partner, will let me learn to play duplicate when I'm ready and has been a lot of fun. The ads are well placed at the end of games and dont distract.
