“LOL at these reviews”

Wesley B.
6/18/21

The people leaving the one star reviews make me laugh. They are bad at cribbage and keep losing and then claim the game is rigged. I win the majority of the time. It is not rigged. My only complaint is that some games become a little too easy because the opponents are very predictable. Otherwise, a great site and app!

Not a good site I play it a lot but recently decided to keep score in cribbage 32 games Bill 15 for me. I remember reading Bill wins around 35% it's the other way around. Just too may times the amazing Bill pulls off improbable run of high scoring cribs like 12,14 18 and I'm getting 2 4 or the odd 8. No balance

This card game site is so much fun. I'm addicted to spider solitaire but enjoy others too. You can play against the machine or other people. Check it out!

Tried to play chess on this site, had the opposing king trapped by a rook and a queen, game ended as "stalemate" like the game was made to give anything other than checkmate just to claim you didnt win

chess.com is full of cheaters
Lichess cant program difficulty settings right
And now cardgames.io cant define a checkmate...
Where exactly do i get an actual game of online chess?

Im a beginner and I play on chess.com, chess3d and a bunch of other sites. I win against the beginner bots and lose against the medium difficulty bots. Exactly what you'd expect. But I always lose against bill jr, who is supposed to be easy, yet I often win against Bill sr, the medium bot. Just a really bad engine by a bunch of unskilled programmers.

Excellent choices of card games to play and I play the app everyday. Bill can be tough, but it's a FREE site. Lots of choices.

So many various games. Great quality!!!

The programmers suck $#*! at their job, this is why they have no clue how to program the AI to have winning strategies. To compensate for their stupidity, laziness and incompetence, they blatently cheat the draws to allow their $#*!ty AI to win more often.

Tip for consumers:
Go somewhere else

I play yahtzee and spades. I learnt to play spades from the bots, once I started playing the online option I quickly learned the bots play terribly, but it did help me learn how to play so no problem there. My complaint is it often kicks me out of the room, or says connection error. It counts down then I'm out but, then I can start a new game immediately, now that sucks. Yahtzee, great game but rematches often freeze and you cant play so have to exit. I hate losing my tick because of a fault that kicks me out. (The tick rooms are less likely to have players who quit due to being a sore loser)
I love this site, this game is my addiction, hope the frustrating parts get sorted.
It is a free site so I should just suck it up.

Try playing a Yahtze game. In four hands the dealer deals himself five sixes, a full house, five sixes, and a five hand straight. Seriously?!?!? I write to the programmer and he says the cards are dealt randomly. I tell him no one deals themselves four great hands in a row and he tells me to play on a different website if I'm not happy. Nice customer relations. My advice: Don't play on this website and inform your friends that these games are rigged and a cheat!

Auto answer when complaining. Will not use application since ads are girly ad b. S. Stop this practice of portraying women as large boobed, ditsy, tools for men to achieve fulfillment from viewing.

The only question I have is why? What exactly does this crappy site get out of rigging the games? It's absolute junk

I enjoy playing on this site often - I play Hearts, Crazy 8's, Solitaire, Golf, Freecell, Euchre, and Spades - Recently, on my IPad, I am hearing loud drums playing. Is the creator of the CardGames.io doing this? It is a little irritating - I just turn the sound down, though. Overall, I really like this App. And all the card games on it.

Often I can call out the cards "Bill" will play no matter the circumstances or what is on the board, as long as it brings him a 15,31, or 3 of a kind or straight &c. "Bill" ALWAYS has a five as well, especially when the cut card is a 10 or face. Thumbs Down City. I'm not a Cribbage expert but good grief.

First off, i dont play cribbage as i think it's a bit of a rubbish game so i cant comment on it.

I do play most of the others though, both against the computer and some against real people.

I've only once won at reversi as i'm rubbish at it.

My results for yahtzee are about 50/50 which one might expect.

I play bil sr at chess and win most of the time. I'm too scared to play real people.

I win against all three bot players in thirteen 60- 66% of the time but against people only about 30% of the time.
I win at war 50% of the time but raely play it as it's boring.

I can beat lisa most of the time at spit but never against bill, i'm too slow.

I win about 57% of the time but it's taken a while to find a strategy to do so.

Hearts is brutal but i win 44%% of the time. Better than the 25% you'd expect if we were all equal.

Euchre i play against people and there are some really great players out there. Get four people who know how to play the game and it's great. It takes a long time to learn the game properly, years.

Spades is a great game, again i play against people. Unlike euchre there are a lot of idiots that play and disappear off at the first hint of losing. I only play the ticked tables to try and avoid the no hopers.

I play against bill at gin and win 64% of the time.

So, as you can see, none of the games i play are rigged and therefore think these poor reviews are by the same idiots that disappear when playing spades thinking the cards are rigged.

There are a few niggles with the site. It will disconnect me occasionally in the middle of a game

The site sometimes takes my tick away for no apparent reason.

If i restart my computer all my statistical data is lost.

I hope people find this helpful.

I was just up 25+ late in two games of cribbage and ended up losing because the computer miraculously gets 23, then 24 points. It happens all the time!
What a joke! The computer always gets the most perfect cards, most perfect hands, at the perfect time. App used to be fun. Once you see it's rigged, it sucks!

Looking for a free website to play cards, and other games. Look no further than cardgames.io. And this year, 2020, they have added a multiplayer feature where you can play with friends or strangers. I am so thankful for this website, and I play games almost every day.

If you enjoy go fish with your kids dont bother with this game. The owner always uses "stats" as a way to prove the games arent rigged but when you only win 4 games out of 50 no matter how many times you play and the pther three bots split their stats almost evenly … rigged! We even wrote down the numbers of the other players … horrible. Gone back to real cards with real people

Once you have played a number of games you will very quickly realise it is rigged in favour of 'Bill' who gets unbelievable hands whenever you start winning. Lost count of the times he gets 12+ points in hand AND crib.
Not realistic.

I play Rummy. When it's 2 or 4 players, "Bill" always wins. When it's 3 players, I think his name is "Mike" wins. First off, they put down almost an entire hand, conveniently runs of 3 or 4, before you even have your first turn. Second, you can't pick from the pile aside from the top card, so you see the card you need pass you by, and you have to forget any run or set you're trying to play. Third, "Bill" or "Mike" always play sets of 3 in 7s or 8s, so that messes your possibility of playing runs even more so. I gave it a try, but I'm not going to keep getting frustrated because the computer wins by 100 before I even have a turn!

I play triangles against Bill. I lose. I try online mode, everyone are bots. So I lose. Just cardgames.io is bad. Don't play anything on it.

Tip for consumers:
Just don’t play this.

Cribbage and Yahtzee games are manipulated. You either get a pathetically easy win or Bill has statistically unlikely hand/throws.

I always go for multiplayer games.

CardGames is great. Easy to navigate, no fees, If you want to learn how to play games better or play new games this is a great site. No annoying commercials. This site has cards games, board games and instructions on how to play. Love it!
