Cribbage is a great game, but that app completely ruins it. The higher rating you are, the worse your card luck gets. I’ve slowly made my way up to Master, and now have about a 2-20 record over my last 22 games, only having been dealer to start for 2 of those 20. Seriously how brain dead do these developers have to be for a player to not start with the deal that many times in a row. It’s ridiculous. Not to mention the card luck. Everyone knows this game is mostly card luck as long as you know which cards to keep and play for the most part, so how can a player go 6 games in a row without receiving a hand that can earn even 10 points while opponents are getting 12+ points in their hand and crib every other turn. I’m deleting this app and never downloading again. Absolutely pathetic.

I don’t believe the cards to be random especially at the end of the game. When you are close to pegging out with a big lead, the opponent always seems to get that huge hand to get the win. It happens very often. Also, there are very few low scoring hands which happens frequently with real cards. This app seems to always cut the card that helps both players. The game is also coded to keep the average at 1000. When you start climbing, the game will give opponents wins to bring you back down. It’s too bad the cards are not random because this game has a great format and it’s better than a lot of other apps. It’s more aggravating than fun because it is rigged.

I’ll preface that this review with the fact that this review is based on comparing to how cards are shuffled and drawn in real life gameplay.

This is the second cribbage app I’ve gotten and I come to the same issue. The actual gameplay and functionality is fine, but the luck of the draw more often than not goes far in your favor or far against you from round to round. I’ll play a round and players with 2 points flop a card that gives them 16 or they’ll start with 6-7-7-8. Which happens, but in this app it happens in back to back to back hands for one player and the “luck” shifts to either me skunking someone or getting skunked. Previous app developer told me how random their cards are, so I guess don’t take my word, play a few rounds in real life and compare them to a few rounds here and see for yourself. A bit frustrating. Will keep searching for an app that compares to a real life shuffle.

Update: decided to uninstall. The amount of 14-20 point hands in a single round is getting worse as my level increases somehow. Again, some in my favor, some not.
