 TOTALLY COOL BICYCLE CARD GAMES IS 10 TIMES BETTER! August 31, 2008
Spades is our favorite computer game. We have used Totally Cool Bicycle Card Games for over five years. It does a good job playing the game. I bought the Hoyle thinking there might be fewer player flaws than the Bicycle version. After 2 hands and several player flaws I felt that I had wasted my money on this CD. Hopefully we'll enjoy some of the other games. Now I'm going to try to find the Bicycle CD that will work on Vista.
 You gotta have it August 29, 2008
If you like taking a break from the web occasionally and playing a card game or two, then this is for you. It is the type of basic "staple" program, like Monopoly, Bridge, hearts, solitaire, etc. that I always have on any computer should I want to have a brief game or two. Hoyle has been doing it for 2 decades now, so they have the graphics and sound down pat; you can listen in to the players or just play it straight up as a game.
Hoyle Card Games August 29, 2008
I had seen this program on someone else's computer and loved it. However, after I purchased it,I could not get it to download onto my own personal computer. I have the Windows XP program and am very disappointed!
 Save Your Money August 27, 2008
Save your money. The games are fun and work well. However, there are very few variations. The bridge, Blackjack and Solitare all only have maybe a dozen games and then repeats. It is pretty bad when you play bridge and by looking at your hand you know the winning bid and the play of the game. The same is true for all of the games. There has to be something better out there.
 Reality bites, literally...Odds favor the computers' players not the challenger. August 18, 2008
Illustrations and animation are exceptional. Ability to create a self image is fun. Drawback is that the player gets lousy cards, especially the Bridge Hands!
