Great game, but...
Tue Apr 21 2020 EjpikeI love this game but gave it four stars instead of five because I wish it had the option of not using wild cards. I also have the computer version that includes that option, so prefer playing on my computer. Any chance that option could be added?
Love the game, but new graphical issue
Sun Sep 23 2018 Sasquatch519Version 2.9.8 introduced a new graphical issue on iPhone XS Max - all the tiles are oversized now. But at least the game still works. It’s one of my all-time favorites.
My favorite Romi game!

Good Game, but there are flaws
Sun Jul 11 2010 TW10 ritThis is a good game and I would buy it again even knowing what is below. There are flaws that would help to be aware of:
1. The instructions are not good even when you go to the website. In fairness there is an option for several languages so it just might be too much to write understandable instructions for all. You can help yourself figure out what Romi (the iPod/Phone) does by pressing the ? to see its moves because they happen VERY quickly. Once you understand the game it is enjoyable.
2. I never won when on the Beginner level, but did win the first time I tried Expert. Perhaps I got better or they have mislabeled the levels. Try them all to see which works for you.
3. The tiles are sometimes hard to move. There are also times when you make a legitimate move that gets beeped for being illegal. If you are sure your move is correct “sweep” the board and try again. This can be annoying and should be fixed.
4. There are wild cards that no where (until I saw Romi do it) did I realize you can replace and use again.
Hopefully an upgrade will fix some if not all of these problems.

App won’t close for iPhone X...
Mon Apr 09 2018 blanchardvilleHelp! I love this game but the app will not close anymore..not sure if it’s the latest OS or iPhone X. Even workaround force close methods don’t work on the iPhone X.
Love it !!

Thank you Gerard!
Mon Oct 08 2012 auntrocky1I've been Playing this developer's Romi game on my Mac for years. I play it every day, and never get tired of it. I'm so glad to find it for the iPhone. I was worried that the tiles would be too small, but I've played several games now with no problem -- and I have large fingers for a female. Someone mentioned that the tiles could not be moved once placed, but I have not had that problem, so maybe it's been fixed. Someone else mentioned that you cannot see the computer's left-over tiles when the game ends. You can. On the computer version, you would click the hour glass to see what's left. On the iPhone version, click on the little computer icon and you'll see them. I love having a variety of backgrounds to choose from. Thank you, Gerard, for bringing my favorite 'little' game to my phone so I can take it with me everywhere. :-)
Not as good as before
Sun Mar 17 2013 wyndechymesI've played this game for a few years but the last update changed the scoring and it doesn't make sense to me anymore. The screen with table of scores is in portrait orientation while the game is in landscape orientation, forcing you to turn the phone if you want to read it. I find it an annoying screen since there really isn't any useful information. And then you get a dialog box that asks you to continue or start new game, which is unnecessary since if you select continue, absolutely nothing happens since the game is over. Definitely a disappointment from the precious method of scoring, which made more sense. Otherwise, the game is great!
