American Dominoes App Reviews

I originally played this companys original Domino game a lot because of the great gameplay and feel, but this version has all the rules that I grew up with. Now that they added tapping directly on the arrows to determine tile placement, Im not accidentally putting them on the wrong end. The scrolling isnt bad, considering how many tiles end up on a small screen, and the arrangement of the spinners makes it easy too.

Only minus is its two player only

Ok what I dont like about this; 1) I cant see the computers score. Why? In any online version Ive played, the computers score is visable as is mine. 2) I get really really mad that when my oponent scores (the computer, their score is deducted from MY score. WHY. I have never experenced that in an online version of this game. Please create a toggle to turn that feature off, I loathe it. 3) Why isnt there a display of the sum of the end tiles? It would make it easier for me than having to count them out first. Again, thats standard in online versions of Dominoes.

Only one bug. Sometimes the scroll view freezes. The fix is to exit the game, and when you start, the game is where it was when you left and the scrolling works.

I pass a lot of time playing this great game - I love it. One enhancement request I have is that the users get the option of selecting a cumulative score instead of submitting the score and starting from scratch after every game.

The 1player game against the computer works flawlessly, but the wifi multiplayer option drains the battery, stalls frequently and disconnects almost everytime. Ive only been able to finish two full games in 10 attempts.

Im very disappointed with this game. You cannot view the whole board at once, but have to scroll back and forth. Placing dominoes on the spinner is also sketchy.

has a few bugs. needs to be updated.

Ive played Dominos for a very long time and I rarely come across anyone or program I lose to very often. I felt like I was playing my 9 bones against the computers choice of the rest of the yard. The computer scores at will regardless of what is played and, as mentioned below, almost always gives you doubles when drawing. How is it that I can pull six of one suit, drop the double and the computer have the only other bone and have that happen numerous times If the computer pulls from the boneyard, 8 out of 10 times it pulls once and plays, 8 out of 10 times it will score on the draw, 8 out of 10 times you will pull more than twice each time in the yard, & 9 out of 10 times you will pull at least one double on your first pull each time in the yard. Those facts, though true, should be about as unrealistic as beating the computer with a 9 bone hand scoring 250 to 0...which I did...but only once. To those below, if your screen doesnt allow you to scroll or you wish to choose a different domino to place down while the arrows are blinking, simply exit the game and reenter. Do not restart, just exit the game and reenter.

great game. wish they allowed you to change your pick if you click the wrong dominoe. also would love a update so that you can use an ipad in sync with ipod touches. like they did with scrabble. were the ipad is your board and the ipod touch is your bones. you can click on a bone and then an arrow were you want it to go. then i would rate this game 5 stars. to the ppl who claim no single player mode. i play all the time against the computer so it does have single player

I never really knew the rules for Dominoes, but with this version, I dont really need to! It does all that scoring hard work for me!

Great game and would recommed it. Choices for game board and dominoes make it more interesting.

Very good game! Only thing Is that once the spinner is closed on both ends it continues to scores. Ex. You played big Five as your spinner ok you scored 10 right. Ok computer played 5/4 thats 14 right no score. So when I play 5/6 on the other end it scores 20 which is wrong it should only score 10 which throws strategy off. Once the spinner Is played on both sides the other two sides can not be counted unless you play a bone on the side ex. Ok big 5 spinning we done played 5/4 on one side of spinner and 5/6 one the other side of spinner the score is ten ok lets say we played 5 blank on the spinner which should count 10 with out counting the other 5 on the spinner thats how we play in THE SOUTH TEXAS LOUISIANA

This is a very good game with a couple of quibbles. Move the button that cancels the game. Im constantly hitting it as I slide the board along. Allow a change of mind on which domino is to be played. And a train ge would be an excellent addition. The game itself is smooth, has instructions and training mode - very good.

I play with an iPhone 3 gs and my wife plays with an itouch. We can only finish about 1 of every 3 games we attempt. Its really annoying when Im spanking her butt and it locks up close to the finish. That and the fact that you cant "unselect" a domino you change your mind on or miss select. Fix those and its a five star game...

Perfect game without the wifi drops. Please make the wifi connection more stable. We now use real dominoes to play dominoes now. Thats unheard of !!!

I have played at least twenty games and even able to finish MAYBE two!! Crashes all the time!! not worth $2!!!!

Honestly, this is the best dominoes app out of at least three that Ive tried. The only thig I asking that maybe if possible, you can fix to were we can listen to out iPod music while playing. Thad would be phenomenal.

This games cheats majority of the time, yet I cant stop playing. I agree with the review about go back button... That would be nice !

Game cheats. The wifi freezes up on two player wifi AND on regular two player. Can only play on 1 player. Fix the cheating, freeze ups, and the game crashing and I will give it a 5 star!
