Jass App Reviews

Online mode is not working

I like this game but when you try to play with online players, it always fails to get connected ! So annoying ! It only worked once

......it does not deserve high grades

Unfortunately the graphics are of poor quality. The horizontal only layout does live up to I-Phone possibilities of turning the screen. The general overview is not well thought about. You are better off with a cost free Jass software, e.g. Samschtig Jass.

As bad as it gets

Whoever wrote this program should first learn how to play jass. There are too many bad plays to start mentioning them. I played about 50 games and finally decided to write this review. I gave it a chance. There are not enough settings to customize the game, e.g. weisen the 6, 7, 8 when playing undenufe. A total waste of $ 3.99.

Frustrated jass player

I have played over a hundred games. I feel the programming gives too many points for card combinations in a hand at the start resulting in too much luck for points in the hand youre dealt as opposed to earning them in actual play. In the real world one never gets this kind of luck with card combinations. Poker has never had this many four of a kinds!

A near perfect First

I learned how to Jass on a visit to Austria, years ago. Then discovered it was the fore-father of a game we always played in the States, called Euchre. I have since been spreading the word and teaching everyone I know about this challenging, complex, yet deeply satisfying game. Being away from Europe most of the time, I have craved such an app for my iphone. At last here is one. And its fantastic! Exquisitely designed and well thought-out, given the many afore-mentioned complexities. My only complaint would be one that ultimately cant be remedied until the Austrians make a contribution; that there would be a version with the terminology and cards I learned with-- Laub, Schell, Goss, Bock, usw... And of course, some of the drama that one always encounters in a real game-- the congratulations and dissapointments for Stich, Match, Gegenmatch and the hub-bub associted with such declarations-- is missing. But, hey, I understand! This game is a serious accomplishment given how incredibly varied it is, in real life, from country to country, region to region, dorf to dorf. Well-done!

No online mode

My grandfather is from Swiss. He show me how to play. Please make an online mode.

Amazing

Very well made, I love this game!!

Worth the money?

Not yet, but the promise is there. Id like to see more of the Jass variants added to the adaption of the game.

Very nice user interface

I could not play online yet though, no luck with account activation. It should be possible to have the activation e-mail re-sent, but I have not found a way to. UI improvement: when its our turn to choose the trump suit, our cards could be more visible, like full screen, not grayed out at the bottom of the screen.

Great game

Great game! Well worth it since I dont have players nearby. It also lets my husband learn the game without me. Agree with the previous post about needing more variants. I find the slalom (alternating oben abe & unden ufe) and the half/half (4 of oa or uu followed by 5 of the other) particularly challenging.

Fun but buggy new update

V1 worked well. V2 crashes randomly, most often when I choose trump playing Shieber Chicane 2500. Bummer! Please fix the bugs! Love the new addition of Swiss German. Update: consistently crashes with iPhone 4.... Bummer again.

Works great now!

Crashed several times in a row by rebooting fixed the problem

Nice interface but occasionally a dumb computer

Hi. The computer player makes bad decisions enough of the time to impact the game play. For example in top down or bottom up they may not lead with the best card.

I love it!

I give this three stars because I am playing from the US and can't get online play or create an account. My family has played this game for generations and the rules we play by are a bit different? But game play is the same. Thanks for making the app! My family would love to play with the international group of players if the developers can write us in! I look foreword to playing with you all!

Works great now!
