Fairly realistic game. I have played this for years. Sometimes it gets aggravating but for the most part it is a good version of Spades.

Good game so far 👍 only been playing it for about ten minutes now but love the fact that you have so many options as far as customizing your game (table) and rules....will give more stars after I play a little bit longer 😉 oh and the fact that there are very little ads is 💯

It has potential to be pretty good, as it lets you assign the level of intelligence for your opponents and partner. However, none of your partners will cover your nill bid no matter their intelligence level... Unless by accident! They make the lower level partners actually sabotage you. Basically if you are bored it's a fun free game. If you are a serious spades' player, be prepared to curse a lot as the AI on this game is counterintuitive.

Worst spades game on the market. Example: I turned off the Nil because the computer would go Nil 3-4 times a game a win 8 out of ten times. The moment I do that the computer starts bidding 8 books a hand and out of 5 games my partner enter a bid of 1 literally 13 times!!!! Almost every hand I would bid 2 maybe 3 books and the computer was bidding 7-8 almost OVERHAND. One time we bid 10. We had it, but my partner cut me using and Ace of spades when it had lower spades to cut with. Pathetic

Summary of major new engine work completed in this new version:
4 years after the original release of Spades Free, we are happy to announce our single greatest improvement in play quality, after a prolonged period devoted just to Spades. This has always been a collaborative project shared with York University and has combined the best of AI research with game industry engineering to achieve the best result so far. In this last period particular attention was paid to bidding and the Nil game, but we also made substantial progress in the Joker variants and efficiency of the analysis. We believe that the end product was worth it. Discover the updated play for yourself!
