Not as good as the earlier Bicycle Games
The bells and whistles, and the silly avatars don’t enhance the games on this new Bicycle card games. The solitaire selections are less interesting than the first Bicycle solitaire, and my favorites, Spider and Forty Thieves are missing. One of the games doesn’t work at all, and some are quite awkward.
Don’t buy for pinochle
Many of the card games work fine but there are problems
with pinochle:
The deal doesn’t rotate between players. The deal
stays with the same player throughout the game.
The same player will get “stuck” with the deal
the entire game.
Even at expert level the computer partner and
opponents play like novices.
Don’t buy this game for the bridge..
unless you are a glutton for punishment. You will be consistently dealt many bad hands. You will see many 4 – 6 point hands before you see one over 12. A quick survey of ten hands showed 7 hands with under 15 points between my partner and myself. As a result, you will be thrashed by your computer opponent. They give you three levels, easy, intermediate, and hard. You get the same bad hands with all. I don’t see the difference.
In addition, your partner provide many insane bids. Very frustrating.
And its all too bad because the graphics are great, the presentation is logical, and even the music is good.
Its like they do a good job with everything but the card playing part.
It makes you wish they would come out with a new, upgraded version.
