iScopa App Reviews

Been playing this for years and will continue to. Nice and quick, greatest graphics.

Well done. A great way to pass some time playing a fun game.

Love this game

I have played iScopa for many years. I love the simple, realistic and natural feeling interface.

Thank you for this game. Brings me back to when my dad, grandfather and uncles all used to get together during the holidays and laugh, complain, and yell at each other while the wives used to try and calm them down. Great game play overall and I highly recomend. Suggestions: Add in game playing instructions Add in running score during game play

I was waiting for an iPhone version of this game! It is very well done, this game also respects all the original rules. The interface is very intuitive; it let you easily understand how to play, even if you dont know exactly all the rules. I really appreciated that the author used Neapolitan cards deck (Im from that city, so I grew up playing Scopa using the same kind of cards.. ;-)). Cosmetically talking I have nothing to say, very nice also the (virtual) "piece of paper" where the score is reported... ;-) In my opinion, two things should be implemeted in a future build. the first regards the numbers indicating the score during the game; they are almost unreadable, the fonts used are two small. The second one is the possibility to know, during the game, how many "Scopa" each player has; at monent, this is impossible to know. Thank you! :)

Love this game! We First learned to play this game in Italy. Now its on the iPhone! Must have!!!!!!!

This game is worth it! I cant wait until briscola comes out and the regional sets! Best 4 bucks spent ever!

it was great. but when the ai discards it shouldnt put cards on top of eachother. also it was too expensive.

As an aficionado of traditional card games, this implementation of Scopa is hot! Card art is exact to the real decks and the play is fun and challenging.

I have to say that this game is addictive! I love the speed, sounds and graphic (great collections of card choices). I find myself playing this game for hours and my only negative thing about the game is that some of the cards are hard to decipher/translate. Im not able to play all of the regional cards because I am unable to recognize what they are and their value. A translation or instructions would have greatly been appreciated.

I was born in Sicily, I have played scopa since I was a little boy. My father taught me this game and we would pass the time playing with the Sicilian deck of cards. Not only is this game well done and lots of fun, but it also brings back fond memories of my family and childhood. Grazie

Ive played scopa for about 3 years now I found the game on a computer game as a side portion of the game. This App is excellent!! With each update it continues to out do itself! If your looking for a fun card game this I a must have!!

I started playing this game on my friends iPhone. Fell in love with it! Just decided to buy it with this update that offered wi-fi. Two issues- 1 - I hate the way the cards now highlight to give me hints. One of my big accomplishments as a new player was when I no longer made the mistake of trying to toss a card, when actually I could take cards with it. These highlighted hints take all the interest out of learning what to play and how. 2 - my friends phone keeps freezing/crashing/tanking. Call it what you will. Be great when this stops happening! Bummer that nearly every game goes unfinished. Also, when that happens, my only option (when he disconnects) is to continue. Maybe "try to reconnect with player" might be nice. Anyway - none of this should be seen as negative - just letting you know how its percieved on this end. PS- how did you manage to get the computer to play this game with the skill and dexterity of generations of cheating Sicilian Grandmothers? Good show!

I learned to play Scopa back in the 70s while stationed in Castel Volturno Italy and working with my Italian counterpart at a radio site. This is an excellent implementation which I have found to be fun, nostalgic and addictive. Plenty of options to gameplay and a very interesting and somewhat artsy interface. This game rocks!!!

I love this game great job. I cant wait till I can play muiltiplayer on one phone. Great job on creating this game.

I was doing a search for a different game when I found iScopa. What a great find this game was. I looked up the rules on the inet and it seemed like it might be fun. As it turned out I killed the rest of the day playing it. The more you play the more fun it becomes. I have already ordered some real Scopa cards off the inet so I can teach friends and play with four players. s 

There are several Briscola games for iPhone. Perhaps Scopa is harder to program, because its rule is more complex than Briscola. But I prefer to play Scopa. This game is nice overall. But the double-tap change of backgrounds is very annoying. Whenever I tap twice accidentally, the background changes to ridiculous sky or space pictures. BACKGROUNDS SHOULD BE CHANGED IN THE OPTIONS MENU! The overall quality of this game is not so good. Of course, the classic card game of Scopa is great. Thats why, I believe, many people think this iPhone game is great as well. But it is not. Consider numerous Poker and Solitaire games for iPhone: many of them has much a better quality than this game. And even the Hispanic card games for iphone, Briscas and Truco, have a better quality than this.

Fun for hours on end, awesome user interface and features!

This is by far my favorite game on my iPhone. It is engaging and never gets old. I can play anytime, anywhere when I need to pass the time. Its as good as real Italian cards. Havent used the wi-fi feature yet, but will this summer when my son comes home from college, he loves this app too. Highly recommended, youll get more than your moneys worth of entertainment.
