This is a very enjoyable curling simulation and is totally worth more than a dollar. Some reviews mention the lack of instructions, which is a fair criticism. But if you visit the developer's web site you will find instructions and tutorials. Checking those out will help with the initial process of getting used to the controls which does take some practice. Here are some hints to expedite your enjoyment: 1. Swipe up from your rock to throw it, and it's the speed of your swipe that determines the speed of the rock. 2. Learn to read the "speedometer" on the screen. You can't make a good shot without it. It tells you how far your rock is going to go. Practice with different throw speeds and how they read on the speedometer and where the rock ends up. 3. To continually sweep you just need to hold your finger down in front of the rock. No need to repeatedly tap or rub. If you sweep the whole way you can greatly increase the speed (and thus distance) of your stone, and you'll see this represented on the speedometer as well. 4. The only way to control the amount of curl is to control the weight (speed) either with your initial throw or by sweeping. Learn to do it! With those three tips you can quickly learn to control your rocks. Some reviews complain that's it's not a good game and all of us who love it must be bots. Those people haven't taken the time to learn about the controls or perhaps even basic curling concepts. Trust me I am not a bot!

BEST curling game by FAR!!! Been playing jt for years and haven’t found any other that comes close.

…you’ll really start to dig it. Not the flashiest graphics or realism, but honest-to-goodness fun. As a relative newbie to curling, I feel like it’s helped me understand and appreciate the game even more.

Updates. Yay!

Great game. Good physics and a great way to learn strategy as the shot making is fairly consistent. It would be cool if we could sweep opponents rocks and our own after they hit something. Thanks for finally adding some updates. Keep it going.

Good Curling

Probably the best game I have ever played on a cell phone. No bells and whistles, just good curling.

Best rocks out there

My buddy and I pick up this app every 4 years during the Winter Olympics and this time around we’re still going. It does a great job at teaching the rules and the gameplay is extremely simple. He’s colorblind and struggles sometimes but finally laid it down on me for a 7-6 win the other day; he really got his rocks off. For anyone hesitant to spend the dollar: Do it. It’s better spent on this app than sitting in your bank account losing value every day. Find your curling buddy and one day you too can make the Olympics

Great game but…

Bottom Line at the Top: Buy this curling game first. It is the one you will keep anyway, so don’t waste your time or money on others as I did. Why do I say that, keep reading. After watching curling on the Olympics, I had to try it in person. I took an introductory lesson at the Evergreen Curling Club, and wow, it’s about 1000 times harder than it looks. Complete new respect for curlers of all levels. After realizing that I was not curling material, but still loving the sport, I thought I would see if it was available digitally. Of course there is, isn’t everything available digitally these days 😉, and many different ones too. This game was not my first pick, but it is the only one left on my devices. The realism of the physics is amazing. Speed, friction, rotation, react just as it does on the ice. Even better actually, because I am still vertical after throwing a rock. I always saw my rocks from down on the ice level view. Dang that slider strapped to one shoe is slippery. I spent more time on the ice in one lesson than I did in all 10+ years of ice hockey. Don’t let the price of this game fool you, it is worth 5 times it’s cost. Yes I would like a better way to rotate the rock as that is the one thing I don’t feel I have real control of. But since I can’t offer any better solution, I will live with it. Otherwise I wouldn’t change anything. Oh sure, the author could use 3D rocks, digitized brooms and ice, and then charge the $5 that this version is worth. But I doubt the digital curling market is large enough to ever recover that investment. So just spend 1/2 your coffee tip and go digital curling. You will have just as much fun without the cold ice, purple bruises and embarrassment of thinking you are in shape and can certainly do something as “easy” as curling. You aren’t. Respect curlers!
