What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Players praise the game's solid implementation of Tichu rules and responsive developer support, with smooth gameplay when playing solo or with friends online. However, the AI opponents are a major frustration point—players consistently report that computer enemies appear to have unfairly favorable card distributions and that the partner AI makes inexplicably poor decisions, making single-player against bots feel rigged and frustrating despite being the only Tichu game currently available.
I seldom review games, but this one deserves a warning. The AI in this version of Tichu is blatantly unfair. Opponents far too often have bombs conveniently ready whenever you declare Tichu, while your so-called "partner" plays like they’re actively sabotaging you—ignoring obvious setups, failing to support your plays, and making bafflingly bad decisions. The result is a frustrating, rigged experience that feels nothing like real Tichu. The UI is clunky, the card distribution feels suspiciously unnatural, and the game lacks the polish and strategic depth that make Tichu great. If you're looking for a digital version, the iOS version is vastly superior. This one? Not worth your time.1 found this helpful
Great implementation of Tichu! Smooth gameplay & competitive bots. Great support, I had a visual issue and developers were very responsive in finding the solution on my laptop.1 found this helpful
Given that it's the only Tichu game out there, it's a pretty good Tichu game. I'm sure it'd be really fun if you have friends who would buy the same app and play it with you, but playing with the AI is almost an insane proposition. It is absolutely brutal. Based on my experience, Prime, the AI to your left, gets all of the good cards no matter what the deal is. No matter what you can play, he'll more than likely have a bomb or both the Dragon and Phoenix because why not. Quintus, your eternal partner, is dumb as hell and can't seem to manage anything other than ill-timed plays. Granted, this is all my perception - it's more than likely that the deals are fair and I'm as bad a partner as Quintus is. I don't know. Either way, if you enjoy Tichu and don't mind getting owned a lot, it's a pretty straight-forward, no-nonsense version of the game. It's a great way to practice and I'm going to just go out on a limb and say that if you can regularly beat the AI, you're going to own any real life table you sit at. Now for those of you who don't know what this game is, it's nothing more than a variation of a climbing game. You've likely played something like it in school, the clos…1 found this helpful
