K9 Shanghai Rum: Phase Rummy

There are a couple kinks. Game didn’t recognize when I ran out of cards and won the hand. Giving it to next player. Also when arranging cards to meld, game failed to recognize that I had correct cards. Kept moving on to next player. Very frustrating as it takes a lot of time to get correct cards.

Really like this game! The only change that needs to be made is being able to go out when your discard plays. Should have to play it and “float” until you draw a card that doesn’t play and you can discard it. Other than that it’s perfect!

Please add the option to disable wild cards, and make it so you can drag the cards in order instead of tapping. Even at the lowest setting the AI players are too aggressive with their buys.

I play this game quite often and I really do like it, however my complaint is that I very seldom get any wild cards and the opponents get quite a few. I don’t know how you determine what player gets what cards but it would be nice to get a fair share. Thank you for listening.

Fun especially for a dog lover.

I was incredibly happy to find this wonderful game on the Apple App Store today and immediately loaded it up on my iPad 12.9. The graphics are stellar, navigation was almost instantly intuitive, and you are able to configure several settings in the setup screen. Best of all, each round features simple graphics showing you what is required to lay down your cards! A set is three of a kind (any suit) and a run is 4 sequential cards of the same suit. Jokers can be anything, and I promise this game will capture your attention and you will be loving the genius programming that made it possible! Great way to practice your skills for when you are playing ‘for real’ with friends or relatives. I have not tried the play with friends but enjoy playing versus the computer ‘bots’ (it is 4 handed because of the demands of showing all those cards on screen. I used to do simple Visual Basic programming, this person likely used JavaScript to do this - (I am guessing) and I have to say kudos - it can NOT have been easy to handle all the variables and still make it ‘look good’. Compared to many other card games I have encountered on the web, I found K9 Shanghai Rum to be top-notch and captivating. I highly recommend giving it a whirl. I was sold the instant it loaded up on my iPad for the very first time!

Shanghai Rummy is my favorite card game. So I’m very grateful that this app exists. But... the “play with friends” feature does not work. At all. And the interface for playing with the bots is super clunky. But it allows me to play and hone my skills. I would pay good money for a high quality Shanghai Rummy app.
