Summary of major new engine work completed in this new version:

4 years after the original release of Spades Free, we are happy to announce our single greatest improvement in play quality, after a prolonged period devoted just to Spades. This has always been a collaborative project shared with York University and has combined the best of AI research with game industry engineering to achieve the best result so far. In this last period particular attention was paid to bidding and the Nil game, but we also made substantial progress in the Joker variants and efficiency of the analysis. We believe that the end product was worth it. Discover the updated play for yourself!

This free version is supported by 3rd party ads. Ads may use internet connectivity, and therefore subsequent data charges may apply. The photos/media/files permission is required to allow the game to save game data to external storage, and is sometimes used to cache ads.

This game isn't realistic! I know it's supposed to be fun but the computer plays cards especially Spades multiple times during a hand/round. It cheats!! There are only thirteen cards of each suit but I can have 6 or 7 spades and the computer plays 4 or 5 hands with a spade which can't logically happen when I know there aren't anymore available for the round!! The samething happens with the other suits because the computer just wants to win but not in a real or logical way!! Terrible!!!

Nonsense! All our games play fair and each card in the pack is only played once per hand. We have tested this app over its entire 15 year lifetime and it has been downloaded over 5 million times and achieved a high Google Play rating from users. If you still believe there is an issue, send screenshots to [email protected]

I hate the pop ups at the start and at the end. More pop ups as time goes by and some you have to "X" out. Now, ads last longer and force you to "x" out. Why , can't you design your program, to just close out and automatically go back to the game after 5 seconds? Most ads are NOT something I want. If ads were relevant, maybe more players would click on them.

Sorry for your ad experience but full page ads can still be skipped after 5 seconds with "x" or fast forward icon when it appears top left of ad. If neither it nor "x" appear, tap "back" button. Unfortunately ad networks control how ads behave. Please report any problem ads to [email protected]. Paid version has no ads.

It's a fun game to play, I love playing spades. However, it often seems like your partner isn't playing WITH you. The partners like to trump a trick you've already won; that hurts our scouring. I wish there was a way to correct this issue. And please add more options for the design choices for the cards, some of the options can be a little difficult to read. And while there are some beautiful options for the backgrounds it would helpful if there were some lighter colours choices so it's easier to read the cards as well as easier on the eyes. Thanks for the fun & relaxation this game provides.
