Best pitch game out there

I really like the game but I dont think Im playing with a full deck. It seems that it lacks realism since its too much of a coincidence that so many point cards come out. And sometimes playing partners , I want to slap my partner. I think hes in cahoots with the other team sometimes.

Nice set up but unrealistic.

This app looks good, and it functions well, but it is incredibly unrealistic. Its like playing pitch with a six-year-old. In the four point cutthroat version, there are frequently four bids and almost always all tens are out. Jacks of trump are also out most of the time, and often theyll be dry in an opponents hand to help make the bid. The computer likes to lead after it gets the bid with Jacks or tens, setting up opponents to take the trick, and leaving the bidder set. The computer will often bid four, with cards such as nines or tens for low. If you like playing pitch where somebody always has an amazing hand, and the game count is often 40 or above, then this is the game for you. If you like playing pitch like you would if you set down with a deck of cards and three opponents who knew how to play, this is NOT the game for you.

Cant Play Online

I purchased this game for myself and multiple family members. I cant get a 3 player cutthroat game going online. It keeps booting one person and the game never starts. This needs to be fixed. Not being able to play with friends defeats my whole purpose for getting the game! Sent message to developer few days ago with no response. Very bad. Im about ready to ask for refund...for ALL of my purchases. If the developer reads these messages, please respond!

Regret Purchase

Nothing fancy here. Basic pitch. Computer generated players are not very good. Only allows up to four players in a game. Only has two game modes. Game play seems slow since you have to review previous hand before dealing the next one. I rather of bought a cup of coffee!

Problems

Great in theory but execution is terrible--- 1. no notification center support so invites to join games pop up with a banner but then can not be found in notification center. 2. Crashes with no way for a player whose app has crashed to rejoin a game leading to needing to restart 4 person games from nothing. 3. Takes forever to connect for multiplayer games Please fix.

Online play terrible

Online doesnt work. App crashes on invite. Worthless bot play. Bot partner overbid my 3 bid with 4 bid having a lone ace!!????

Dont waste money

Algorithms are terrible, never get even ok cards. Even on expert your partner leads back trump and fails to take jack when has high card. If you play keep low all the players play as if its catch low making gameplay awkward. Get better cards on my worst day with real people.

Turn based needed

Turn based PLEASE!!!!! Would be 5 star easy with it.

Problems!,

Has 2 major flaws in single player mode. Human player able to about 1out of every 12 hands. Also, if human player bids a "2" bid, all computer players can over bid with a "2" bid!!!. Until these flaws are fixed, this app should not be bought! When fixed, I will review it again.

Not realistic play

Players dont play a logical game. Vulnerable cards are let pass by and high cRds arent lead. Doesnt make sense.

iOS 8 issues?

Multiplayer issues via Bluetooth and game center across phones with iOS 8. App crashes before game start.

Calculating Points Wrong

I love this app and play it all the time. However the most recent version seems to have a bug (which wasnt in the previous versions) regarding scoring. For example, I had 18 points, and earned 3 points but the game calculated my total to be 20, instead of 21. Another example was when a computer had 12 points, then earned 4 points, and the game calculated their total to be 14, instead of 16. This happens almost every turn and is extremely annoying. If it wasnt for this, the game is 5 stars. Also, my friends and I play when you are given a hand where all your cards are 9 or below, you are given the option to set aside those cards and draw a new hand from the top of the deck (your old hand is not revealed). The flaw with this is you know 6 cards that arent in play. However, it doesnt affect gameplay too much and is much more enjoyable than having a pitiful hand where you are bound to win nothing. I think this should be an option you can turn on or off in the settings. In some very rare cases where your hand falls under this condition but has 5 or more cards of the same suit, it might actually be an okay 2-bet (attempting to win the low and game points). Therefore, I suggest that when you obtain a hand where all your cards are 9 or below, allow the player to select if they would like a new hand, as opposed to just doing it automatically.

Crashing

Keeps crashing when you try to play people you know.

Pitch card game

For the most part this game works, however the hands are very unbalanced. Most times I have no card higher than a 7 whereas the computer players often are loaded with A, K, Q and J of trump. No fun to play anymore since the recent update, and certainly no skill required since I either always lack trump or only have 3, 4, and 5s in my hand

Unrealistic card generator

Doesnt take long to realize that the cards dont generate cards fairly. Layout is nice and the card disc

Not worth the money

Disappointing. The free apps are better than this.

Unrealistic

Im not a an of this game. The hands youre are dealt are usually garbage and you cant trade out your hand if they are all garbage cards. When I do get a decent it seems that the opponents always have what it takes to set me. Its probable that maybe Im just a terrible player. I just have a hard time enjoying this game. Also itd be nice if it were a little more customizable. Wish I never paid for it.

Bug fix

Whenever me or my partner or even the computer gets 4 points or makes a 4 bid, only 3 points are added can you please fix this and youll have a 5 stars from me

Not worth it. Save your money

Since its been almost 2 YEARS since the last update, it seems the developer has abandoned this app. Game has too many flaws that havent been fixed. Bad AI, no multiplayer, no coke hand. A disappointment.

Issues

Trying to play online is very frustrating. The game will continue to close when a match starts as for the very rare occasion it doesnt close, it will say all the other players left. There should also be an option to play with a human partner and play against the computer. Please fix issues...spending money on a non working product.
