    Great game!

    Very fair and challenging. I see some complaining the game is predictable. No kidding! It's a card game that uses 52 cards! Patterns are bound to show up whether you play with a computer OR a human. It is not in usual for cards YOU don't need at the moment to be needed by your opponent so YEAH, the bot is going to pick up a lot of your discards, THE SAME AS ANY GOOD HUMAN PLAYER WOULD. I swear most, if not all, bad reviews of this app are coming from people with little to no experience playing Rummy 500 with real people and a real deck. I've played for over fifty years (since the age of five) and this game is no more predictable than the real thing. It's also just as fair as playing real people. Well worth downloading.

    Great game!

    I agree with the review written by “ANickNameNoOneElseHas”. It’s fair and challenging—-does it have a few problems—-of course it does—-BUT—-for the most part, it’s a really good 500 Rummy card game. I do wish it had an “undo” button for those times when "we", yes, I said "we" accidentally, very lightly, drag our fingers across our cards as we approach the discard we have our eyes on. Since the developers have not fixed these concerns, try being especially careful not to drag your fingers across the keyboard. This works for me and I hope it works for y’all! But, like I said earlier, THIS IS A REALLY GOOD 500 RUMMY CARD GAME!!!!!

    Nice game.

    I play against the computer, so I can honestly say that the game play has improved since I first downloaded app. The computer still makes some stupid decisions, but I can live with that. And the deal has definitely become more random. Used to be that the computer quite often could lay out the entire hand in a single play. That has become very uncommon I’m happy to say, because it was seriously annoying. A year ago I would have rated this only three stars. Now it’s worth the five I’ve given it. Overall I’m very happy with the game. Thanks!

    Not Just a Game App, My Favorite Game

    This Game I love playing, not just for the Challenge, but Because when I was a child my grandmother would teach my brother & I how to play and we would be those children who enjoyed playing 500 Rummy with my mom and grandmother, when I play and winning I think of my when she like one card, just waiting for that hitter, giving all these points to me, or how even now I seem to lose to the three people challenge. But the game relaxes me after a long day at work. And I enjoy playing on a rainy day, which like I was a child, age 41 never too old for 500 Rummy!

    Like the game, no ads worth it

    I like the game. It provides multiple difficulty levels for you to improve your skills, the interface is nice, easy to use, and I haven’t seen any glitches in game play. The only glitch I do see is that have already paid for no ads but keep getting asked to pay again. I just ignore it but it would be nice not to see that. I find it tough these days to find apps I like without subscriptions so I am glad it doesn’t use a subscription model. I paid to remove the ads and am glad I did.

    Where’s the Gin?

    I have played this game almost all of my life. Of course I always played it with a person never a computer. This is by far my favorite game. With that being said I just wish that it was not so controlled by the computer. When the cards are dealt The computer always has at least two melds and sometimes three. Most often the computer lays down for Aces. On a rare occasion I may have one play that I find already in my hand. That is my first pet peeve. The second is when the plays have been finished and someone is ready to go out it makes no difference what card I discard it is always the exact card that the computer needs to go out. At first I thought that it was just me that it really didn’t happen that often. Recently I’ve been teaching some friends to play and that was the first thing that they noticed. I always play the hardest game and I win probably 2/3. After the computer has had several wins it’s as if it throws me every card I need. It knows exactly what cards I have in my hand. I just wish that it was not so predictable and more of a challenge. If I was one to drink I would probably need a bottle of gin. It has the potential of being a fantastic fame

    Good but could be better

    I like this game a lot. However I don’t like that when I organize my hands the computer changes it. I don’t like that I can’t reorganize my hand until I pick a card. It annoys me because it doesn’t have a button to change from run to sets. Another thing that bothers me, when I pick up a played card not the last one I always have to put it down. But the computer doesn’t. Sometimes it with pick up example: a 2, 5, j. But it lays down a meld that may or may not include the 2. I always have to play it he farthest in card in this case a meld that includes the 2. Other then that I like the game a lot. I have purchased it so I only get an ad when I need a new daily challenge.

    Good Game But Could Be Great Game

    I really like the game, and the commercial set up isn’t bad at all... you periodically have to watch a commercial before starting a new game or can choose to watch one for extra experience points. HOWEVER... My only problem is that I do not feel that cards to the computer are always random. I realize any combination of cards could be dealt; however, too frequently the computer has extraordinary runs or the card I lay down is exactly what it needs. At the same time, as a recipient, I seem to have similar experiences where what I’m dealt is fantastic and every card that comes up is golden. Another scenario is that virtually every card I receive is horrible, and every card the computer receives is golden. The problem is that these unusual runs both for the computer or for me happen more than in real life, enough so that it creates a downward spiral of frustration at times - and in turn because of the periodic inequity of the game, the the ads become frustrating. Just when I think I want to purchase the game to remove the ads, the inequities pop up again, and I think, “Why bother?” I realize a deck of cards is limited, but I think the randomization of cards can and should be improved. So, because there aren’t a lot of 500 Rummy options, and I really like 50” Rummy, I put up with it and keep playing. It’s not all bad. It has runs if fairness where I win some and lose some.

    Good Game But Has Issues

    From the jump let me say I like the game. It’s a game in real life I play with my mom, aunts, and grandmother. I even taught my husband how to play. The issue I have is unless you buy the expensive coins, you can’t really unlock anything. Getting coins through playing the game itself takes a very long time and to unlock the different ways to play you need 500 coins. I[m sorry I don’t want to pay $5 for 500 coins and only be able to unlock 1 other game option. I feel if I need the coins to unlock different ways to play then they should be different prices and I should be able to win enough coins by playing to unlock the other game plays. Also, can we get like an online or play user option so I don’t always have to play the computer???

    ONLY DECENT RUMMY GAME IN MY TOWN...

    I read the first four reviews and could just ditto every one of them. Computer does cheat. Ends game while both still have couple cards, plays two of same card in a run and counts both, takes my turn, I could go on. First hand will score double or more what other scores and that tells me who will win this one. Computer often lays down melds or runs containing all but one or two hand cards. Sometimes when computer has won two in a row I am fed the cards needed one after another so I win this one. Maybe you don’t work on quality of this game because I, as others say also, think this is better than other 500 rummy games available. I would like a challengeing game please!

    Very good interface, terrible AI

    AI plays jokers very oddly (poorly). I'd like to see a more advanced AI. UPDATE: the AI is actually quite flawed, making ridiculously bad plays regularly (for example, using both wildcards to play a single regular card, usually a small one, or using a wildcard while simultaneously playing the same actual card in an unneeded spot, using a wildcard on the end of a meld that has more than 3 cards, using a wildcard and then discarding the identical actual card on same turn). Honestly, the fact that the AI wins at all is pretty strong evidence the deck isn't random. Update : the AI had gotten better it seems. Unfortunately this has exposed just how ridiculous the card distribution is. AI very often starts with 3 large melds. I occasionally start with 2, almost never with 3. It seems sometimes the AI just decides to win, and just hammers you relentlessly through a few short hands to victory. I'd like to see a true random card generator.

    Good game but annoying ad features

    The game is good but the ads irritate me to the point that I don’t play this game often any more. The app has adds like most apps... no big deal right... lots of games have 10-15 seconds of ad. Except for some reason the app has ads that over ride my phones volume. when I have the sound off the ads still play with sound and some have no way to stop the sound. This is really annoying when I’m trying to play in public or when Im trying to play at night and my so is trying to sleep. So I turn the volume all the way down and hope that I remember to turn it back on when I’m done or else I might not hear my alarm for work. Or sometimes I choose to play a different game all together because the ad sound is so irritating. Honestly if it weren’t for the ad sound playing this game would be rated higher. Please fix this major problem!!

    Constantly “loses connection”

    Charges you coins to play the game and then just randomly loses connection. This happens to me like 75% of games, and if one hand is completed it gives the win to whoever is in the lead at the time. Aside from the games where I’ve lost the first hand thus losing the coins, it’s just obnoxious that the game is constantly “losing connection” for no reason. Also, would be nice if you could choose to play with no jokers. I mean not only is there two jokers in the deck but then they people buy jokers and add them to their hands? Once one person adds a joker to their hand it restricts the other person from adding one... Why? Ruins the game when someone can potentially play three jokers a hand especially since if your opponent adds one you don’t even have the option to. Can’t we just play normal with no jokers?

    Sad

    I wouldn’t recommend this game, looking for a good rummy app? Sadly this isn’t it, and here is why... Ads are obnoxious and seem to happen at the most random times. Funny it has so many adds considering how much money they charge you to remove them, but I guess you can’t have a good game without something to ruin it! This game definitely isn’t fair considering you can pay to win, and before anyone decides to download none of the features are free. Wanna play the cool different variations of rummy, well be ready to give up $5 so you can! Also it seems the more you spend the better odds are in your favor, friend bout the “no add” special for a whooping $9 and guess who has been getting more wins 🤔 Oh and I’m not just talking about with me, whether it’s against hard mode CPU or random matches their amount of victories is steadily increases.
