2025-01-02	Ca*****		Many situations are unrealistic. I have won hands losing more tricks than allowable. Board needs to be more realistic, ie,the played dominoes should remain visible. You can definitely tell it is a computer played game. The version my niece downloaded is much more realistic.

2024-05-20	Ta*****		I like the game but there is a glitch. If I bid 2 or 3 marks, it only allows me to choose High, Low, 7s, ect, but the AI characters can choose it and play straight 42 without being limited to those options. Quite a glaring bias Answering your question. If I bid 2 or 3 marks the only option that comes up is to do High, Low, or 7s. If the AI bids 2 or 3 marks it lets it then pick a Trump, for example 5. It then plays a regular game with the 5 being a trump thru the game. I can't do that

2024-04-05	Er*****		This is the best overall 42 game I have tried. Over last several years it has improved my skills significantly. Averaged winning only 45% of the time for first year and now winning 52% over the last few hundred games played. The normal setting for aggressiveness of the computer is the most challenging. I suggest turn off Sevens or make forced bid only.
