Don't cheat my (/)...
December 26, 2024

Don't waste your time. Cribbage, Backgammon,Canasta,Farkle just to name a few, all run algorithms to keep you from winning. Canasta, hum AAJ, or A2, melds first time, if not canasta first round, 9 out of 10 times takes the pile, you're ready to go out, 4 more melds than the computer, all of a sudden it has more melds than you, only cards left in your hand they have melded... Cribbage, you can never keep up, it always out scores you 4 to 1, backgammon, always jumps you if you leave yourself open, it never leaves its self open, I can keep going with the rest of their crooked games. Find another site.

I just played six games of this company's online Cribbage and got blown out every game. These games are rigged. Your opponent always has the perfect cards or draws the perfect cards. Your opponent frequently draws four of a kind, double-double runs, or multiple fives. No one has or draws the perfect cards like your opponent. I consider myself an above average Cribbage player and I don't expect to get blown out every game. Please don't play or endorse this company's online card games.

These card games are a complete joke!
August 18, 2023
Previous review

Try playing a Yahtze game. In four hands the dealer deals himself five sixes, a full house, five sixes, and a five hand straight. Seriously?!?!? I write to the programmer and he says the cards are dealt randomly. I tell him no one deals themselves four great hands in a row and he tells me to play on a different website if I'm not happy. Nice customer relations. My advice: Don't play on this website and inform your friends that these games are rigged and a cheat!

Doesn't cheat my $#*!
August 7, 2024

Look at Canasta. When you get above 1500, how is it the opponents always seem to meld first round, more or less get Canasta first round? Constantly get 3 or 4 red 3's every hand. Always have melded, your throw off cards. Backgammon. Always 99% of the time, starts first. Their shakes allow them to 98% of the time, leave them stacked so you can't jump them. 98% of the time, when you're vulnerable, just always happens to roll the number to jump you. Cribbage? They outscore you 3 to 4 times the points every hand. It's not cheating. Then it must have a horseshoe up its $#*!.

Garbage
February 23, 2024

Tried to play chess on this site, had the opposing king trapped by a rook and a queen, game ended as "stalemate" like the game was made to give anything other than checkmate just to claim you didnt win

chess.com is full of cheaters
Lichess cant program difficulty settings right
And now cardgames.io cant define a checkmate...
Where exactly do i get an actual game of online chess?

I was just up 25+ late in two games of cribbage and ended up losing because the computer miraculously gets 23, then 24 points. It happens all the time!
What a joke! The computer always gets the most perfect cards, most perfect hands, at the perfect time. App used to be fun. Once you see it's rigged, it sucks!

Go fish somewhere else
February 8, 2023

If you enjoy go fish with your kids dont bother with this game. The owner always uses "stats" as a way to prove the games arent rigged but when you only win 4 games out of 50 no matter how many times you play and the pther three bots split their stats almost evenly … rigged! We even wrote down the numbers of the other players … horrible. Gone back to real cards with real people

Rigged
August 23, 2022

The programmers suck $#*! at their job, this is why they have no clue how to program the AI to have winning strategies. To compensate for their stupidity, laziness and incompetence, they blatently cheat the draws to allow their $#*!ty AI to win more often.

Card Games - Best
March 5, 2023

I enjoy playing on this site often - I play Hearts, Crazy 8's, Solitaire, Golf, Freecell, Euchre, and Spades - Recently, on my IPad, I am hearing loud drums playing. Is the creator of the CardGames.io doing this? It is a little irritating - I just turn the sound down, though. Overall, I really like this App. And all the card games on it.

Disappointed again!
August 4, 2023

This is my second time saying I'm really getting disappointed with CardGames.io! It's like after winning a few games the game just finds a way to ruin my day. I'm trying to win 7 games in a row. But just now after winning 5 games I just had the farkle game betray me once again! What's amazing is just how bad this game is! I mean giving Bill the ability to score over 6000 points in a game is UTTERLY RIDICULOUS! This game is getting DISGUSTING! I'm just being REAL!

Once you have played a number of games you will very quickly realise it is rigged in favour of 'Bill' who gets unbelievable hands whenever you start winning. Lost count of the times he gets 12+ points in hand AND crib.
Not realistic.
