Comments on Shanghai Rummy for Android

★★★★★ Love the game would give 5 stars but two small problems cards are way too small especially with how much background there is on screen and timer is way too fast there needs to be like a minute before play starts to move the cards around in your hand otherwise you're constantly playing to catch up all hand. Otherwise, I highly suggest this game so fun. One other small detail I always thought you could steal jokers (not twos) from runs (not sets) after you and another lay down

★★★★★ Almost great... this is as close to Shanghai Rummy as I have ever found in an app. However, the timer moves a bit too quick, and it is hard to keep pace. It would be great if there was a setting to turn off the timer or to adjusting length of time.

★★☆☆☆ Tried it out despite the low ratings. Not user-friendly at all. I was unable to lay down my hand. Very disappointing, as I love playing Shanghai rummy, and sincerely hoped this would function well. Unfortunately, it does not.

★★☆☆☆ Needs a pause button! Cards are too small, and the timer is too short to move cards around to the order they must be in, they often go in the wrong location. If you can't beat the timer, your highest card is automatically discarded, this sucks when you lose an important card. Correct melds can't be placed. Cards can't always be added where they should. For example, my run of 7 was in clubs with king high. I had Ace of clubs, but the game would not allow me to place it after meld. Music off!
