G4A: Indian Rummy

I've been playing for several weeks now, and the only really negative thing I can say is it can be a little sensitive when you're moving cards around, meaning I've discarded ones that I needed. So be mindful of that, keep cards low. Overall though, I like it. I feel it's more fair and even than most other apps, and the fact there are no ads it's a wonderful relief!

Update: touch screen arrows to move an app interferes with screen. So my whole game will disappear if it left or right side cards touch the corner screen in landscape mode. An undo button is needed for last card play. cards are very close together, accidentally discarding the wrong one is easy. I agree with other reviewers regarding missing extras like a wild card, suit, or deck. games can too long to end with just one 🃏 and 2 card decks. #1 game to pass-time. Buy pro. Worth it.

This is the only game I found for playing Indian style Rummy against the phone without any frills like paying for chips. It plays fast, and has the basics right, which includes dealing 13 cards, and tracking points for 4 players. However, it is missing several key features of Indian Rummy as below: 1) It does not allow me to scoot when the cards on hand are bad. 2) It needs a joker for the game instead of just the hard joker cards from the deck. 3) It uses only 2 decks of cards for 4 players. Will be great if there are 3 decks of cards. If the developer adds 3 decks, the game should allow for a set of 3 cards of the same value and suit are in the hand to be the same as first life. For example, 3 Ace of Spades cards. 4) The shuffling of the deck is suspicious. I draw the high value cards (J, Q, K, 10, A) about 90% of the time, so reducing points from my current set of cards on hand is very difficult. 5) When I have a first life (or compulsory sequence that we used to call it in India), it should not count those cards in the penalty count. 6) It should limit max penalty to 80 ("book"). 7) It should allow for shorter or longer games. Will update this to 5 stars if above are added.
