No on Macbook Pro December 4, 2008 Nelson W. Gaske (Chiacgo(ish), IL) Well... It looks like it would be really fun, but I got the game and installed it on a Macbook Pro, and it turns out it doesn't work on a macbook pro and they want to refund it but i am going to try and rectify the situation.
abysmal December 2, 2008 White Marlin (Tidewater Virginia) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
pretty much useless since the face of the cards are all but illegible even on the largest screens. if you are blind then this is a great piece of gaming software.
Unplayable! December 2, 2008 Sherrell W. Fischer 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
The graphics were just horrible. I couldn't read the cards. The game wouldn't go in to full screen mode. I returned it.
Too much graphics, too little card sense November 28, 2008 Glenn M. Runyan (Baton Rouge, LA United States) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I upgraded from Hoyle 2005 looking for a bridge game that was more sophisticated. Instead, it was slow in card playing (flipping the cards as played), partners card were so small as to be unreadable and the programming had not been approved.
Not the greatest November 25, 2008 C. Richardson (Fleetwood, Pa United States) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I purchased this game basicly for one card game (pitch) and to replace my old Bicycle Gin card game which Vista 64 won't run. I agree with the rest of the reviews, the cards are small and very hard to read. It looks like they are in the shadows and not highlighted. I also have an issue with the gameplay. In playing Rummy 500 it seems like the computer gets all of the high cards. I have yet to win a game which is frustrating. I paid $12.00 for it so I'm not going to complain too much, but I can't recommend it. If I can find a better product it will be replaced.
