## Extreme 500 Reviews in United States

### **--- "Letter Grade Stupid"
Game is okay playing partners for an app anyway. Way too may unbidable hands. It’s like the randomization that substitutes for a shuffle is too good. Played thousands of games over the last 60 years and I’ve never had a game  where ten hands delt with no biddable cards. 
This letter grade business incredibly annoying and 100% unnecessary. For a game I had to pay for…it could be a lot better.
-- Rex Hanabal, 2025-04-04

### ***-- "Predictable"
I can always tell what suit others are going to bid in when I have only one card in an entire suit. 
Happens more time than not.
-- Stupid 50, 2024-01-03

### ****- "Good, but….."
Won’t let me change type of 500

### *---- "Better than most but extremely glitchy"
I don’t know who wrote this program but they obviously have no understanding of how to play it. All my comments are with me playing the computer only. The programmer has no comprehension as to how to make bids. For example we may only need 10-30 points and the opponent is way behind, and they both have passed, so logically you would at most make a 6 bid to win the game. But not this programmer he has my so called partner bid 8 and then really didn’t have the cards to bid even 6. Then as previously stated in a review my partner will play a card that the hand is already mine and then cause us to be set. It is very frustrating playing this game with the programmers total lack of understanding on how to play cards!!! I would recommend this game only if you are going to play online and then that brings another total set in illogical programming idiotic things.

### **--- "Moving and pick pile"
I am still unhappy I cannot move my cards around before I bid. I like to put my cards in the order I want to see them to bid. The only time you can move cards is if you take the bid. I have not played the actual card game with friends for quite a while. Rather than 3 cards to change when you get the bid, I thought it was 5. Hope you can change these things because I love playing the game. I like the new changes you have made to show bids on the table.

Why doesn’t your player give you 3 of her cards when Nelly or misere is bid?  That is what happens in the real game
-- Fourth grade incusion, 2022-06-21

### ****- "Solid game with errors"
While there are issues (original scoring is wrong, misere bid by opponents locks game after first hand, etc.), it’s still an enjoyable version of the game.
-- JoeAndTodd, 2022-02-19

### **--- "Partner doesn’t play to win"
The computer partner does not play to win. I can not figure out why it plays the cards it does at times. For example the other team leads with a joker, computer partner plays the right bower. The opponent then plays the left bower and the computer partner plays a queen of trump. We could have won a trick if played the other way around. Seems like doesn’t play lowest card if can’t take the trick.
-- grr2344567, 2021-12-27

### ***-- "Extreme 500 , game flaws"
Please fix the app so the partner does not come back immediately with a joker when playing a no thump hand.  Very annoying to bid no trump and have a hand full of a suit and then have the partner put a joker on it taking the trick.  There is no way to get back into the bidder’s hand when this is done.

PLEASE FIX THIS FLAW!

Thank you
-- gibougirl, 2021-09-16

### *---- "Questions"
Are there any real people that play against each other. All I’m seeing is a computer partners on both sides. The computer takes all the good cards and leaves crappy ones for me like almost every hand. That’s not right. I paid money for this game. It’s not even a challenge if computer going to win all the time
-- Single Rose, 2021-07-22

### ***-- "Play is ok but with bugs"
1. Option that requires winning contract to win game doesn’t seem to work. I won my bid but the opponent reached 500 in points and was declared the winner. 

2. Winning Misere does not credit me with an achievement. 

3. Would like to see score persist on all screens. When I have the bid window there’s no indication of current score.

4. Would love to see win/loss record and other stats.
