I like the game. it's fast-paced and challenging. However, there are a number of glitches that need to be worked out. Such as, I play a winning card and my partner cuts it, I play a winning card and my partner plays a card of higher value or my partner bids Nil but then plays a wining card or cuts the card in play. In all situations, the bot had other card options that could have been played. It's frustrating, but you can't change out your bot partner.

This is better than other spades games that I have played because the computer players generally seem to play "correctly." However, FIVE times now, I have had a computer player try to set themselves after bidding nil or blind nil by trumping with a spade. This glitch needs to be fixed for this to be the best spades game.

not good enough at covering nil, doesn't bid according to game score, does not always go for the set, bags of a nil partner should count against you. needs a serious upgrade to reply be AI
