Our Site Score

85/100

This rendition of Hearts is a masterclass in clean interface design and smart AI. Hearts is notoriously difficult to program for—AI either plays too passively or focuses too much on the player—but this app finds a great balance. The 'Expert' bots actually attempt to Shoot the Moon if they see an opening, forcing you to play defensively. It’s a great way to sharpen your skills before taking on human opponents.

The customization options are a standout feature here. Being able to toggle 'Jack of Diamonds' rules or change the deck art allows you to play the specific variation you grew up with. The animations are snappy, meaning you can burn through a full game in under ten minutes. Whether you are a seasoned card shark or someone who hasn't played since Windows 95, this is easily the best Hearts app on the store.

Dinsun Review

There’s not much to say about a card game port. It’s functional. The AI is competent—it won't let you 'shoot the moon' without a fight—and the interface is clean. It reminds me of the old Windows versions, which I appreciate. No fancy 3D avatars or nonsense.

Like many free card apps, it’s plagued by ads between rounds. It’s annoying, but that’s the state of mobile. It’s a solid way to play a round of Hearts on the bus, but there’s nothing here to make it stand out from the fifty other Hearts apps on the store.
