Canasta (v. 1.0.8) Разработано Riva Software |
Canasta is a rummy-like card game in which the objective is to create melds of cards of the same rank. You form Canastas by melding at least seven cards in the same meld.
This version brings the Classic Canasta rules with a lot of variations. Also, you can customize the game the way you like: Background images, back cards images, animation speed, compressed melds on table (ideal for small screen devices), portrait or landscape modes.
Game Characteristics:
* 2 or 4 players
* Clockwise or Counter-Clockwise
* Three levels of difficult: Beginner, Intermediate and Expert
* Game is automatically saved each turn, so you can close it and continue playing later
* Undo function so you can cancel mistaken melds
Rules Variations:
* Winning Score: 5000, 7000, 10000 or unlimited
* Number of dealt cards: 11, 13 or 15
* Canastas required to going out: 0, 1 or 2
* Option to draw 2 cards from stock instead of 1
* Option to set the discard pile frozen for partnership that has not melded
This game is a must have for all Canasta lovers!

[2012-11-04] Ali: Impressed Very addictive just wish expert mode was a little harder and a little more customisation on cards and background |
|
[2012-10-28] Kyla: Couldn't get game to download! |
|
[2012-10-14] carl: Good game Make it multiplayer online and it would be better! |
|
[2012-10-11] Robert: Needs a "ask to go out button" I have had this app for a month and not once have they updated and I played for it. I also gave it 4 stars to being a good game and put my advise to make it better. I now give it 1 star for neglect of and app that you have to pay for. I'm sorry but as an owner of this app you are not a good sponsor. |
|
[2012-10-11] Jerry: Spam Ever since I downloaded I keep getting txt msgs about bank of America or something similar using the disposable credit card I used to purchase this app been too long to get a refund but I highly recommend not purchasing this app. |
|
[2012-09-27] Ron: Does not open Comes up with black screen |
|
[2012-09-24] Clay: Great, intuitive interface I, too, would give it 5 stars if you could ask permission to go out. It's really irritating when my partner sticks us with tons of points, especially when those cards could have completed canastas. |
|
[2012-09-12] Cindy: Pretty good I like the game, but would like more of a challenge on expert level. It also cheats! It just took one card out of the discard deck, not the entire deck, in the last hand I played. It also picks up the deck with just one card in his hand...and no wild card. I am disappointed. |
|
[2012-09-07] Ali: Always fun Fun game graphics are rather boring plain |
|
[2012-09-05] Josh: Tie=loss and tricking computer Not a bad app, but a couple of issues: - I tied with the computer at 5065 and was given a loss. Why does a tie mean a loss? That doesn't make a lot of sense. - if you get everything down quickly and feed the computer a card that plays into one of their melds, you can keep them from drawing and force the comp to pick up the pile. You can buy time with this strategy and it isn't one a human would follow blindly like the computer does. |
|
[2012-08-29] Leo: Game play I world have rated this game five stars if the actual game was played right. |
|
[2012-08-28] Denise: Good game I like this game, I have been looking for a tablet version and this one works great. |
|
[2012-08-19] lester: Update rules. Should be allowed to skip discard of last card before a complete canasta. |
|
[2012-08-09] Debbra: Debbra It's GREAT! But I could teach the developer a thing or two about CANASTA. I have played the game since Elementary School. We had family tournaments every time there was a family get together, growing up. Only, we played with 4 decks of cards and had an 8 card bank, which was earned after your first Canasta. Also, you could have wild canasta, (made up with wild cards) worth 2,000PTA. But there's a catch! I may try to contact the developer. There are still some surprisea! ;-) |
|
[2012-08-08] Bonnie: Disappointed I was very excited about this game but it wont let me move cards to meld. |
|
[2012-08-07] Jasmine: I like but.. I like this game but I would be better if there was an option to play with real ppl |
|
[2012-08-01] Tihesia: Love I love this game |
|
[2012-08-01] Misty: Would be a 4 or 5 but I can't get it go meld. And yes I know how to play. Lol |
|
[2012-07-29] Daniel J: Wins too often This app, while fun, wins almost exactly every other game whenI play expert level. If it is my turn to win it somewhat throws the game in my favor by discarding what I need to go out. Every time it is the app's turn to win it goes out in only one or two hands but usually waits until I've melded something. Would it bethat difficult to create a truely random generator for "shuffling" the cards and dealing? Atmy level if skill I should honestly be winning over 75% of the time. I scored a 98% winning when playing the medium level and win almost all the time in real life playing. Please work on improving this app! |
|
[2012-07-24] Nichole: Great Love it |
|
[2012-07-23] Kori: Wish it asked b4 p goes out Great app I play it every day!! |
|
[2012-07-22] Matthew: Very well made app Game looks great, game is a lot of fun. Would be awesome if the hand and foot variant could be added. |
|
[2012-07-19] Mandie: Love it! If u like this game, buy it. Icouldn't wanted but couldn't find a free one, but its well worth what i paid. All smiles here. Hey jack, check out the settings. You may be able to change that. 0;-) |
|
[2012-07-04] Ted: Good game Rules are a little different from the way I grew up playing but still a great game |
|
[2012-07-03] Shaun: Great game Love this game |
|
[2012-06-27] Splifstar: ALMOST A FIVE BUT NOT QUITE I play the game constantly and love it but to be honest even the expert level rival(cpu player) sux and should b at a beginner level they should really make these players harder to beat cuz its not even a challenge im at 50 games and have even lost yet even i know im not that good. |
|
[2012-06-26] K: Not hard enough Well done game enjoy it but need more levels win almost every game on expert |
|
[2012-06-24] Ellie: How do i meld?? Keeps saying that i have to have two cards of same rank no matter what cards i try to meld-what am i doing wrong? |
|
[2012-06-15] PEGGY: Mrs McGee Great |
|
[2012-06-15] Ami: Ok. Overall good game. However, the computer doesn't play realistically. It will discard something it just built a meld with. |
|
[2012-06-15] SandTrout: Dealing needs to be shown one card per player! Needs a 3-player option with 3 decks of cards. That's the most cut-throat version I know! Not bad for practice as it is :-) |
|
[2012-05-30] Glen: Love it This game is great |
|
[2012-05-29] Kathy: Can you fix it I love the game. Right now I am experiencing a glitch. The cards sway from the short screen to the long screen. So now I can not play this game. |
|
[2012-05-26] Jeff: Pretty good but missing a few things Nice to play but. It does not count canasta until the end of a hand so melding with a black canasta of 7s it says you have insufficient points. If you have a black canasta it does not let you pick up a card of that value when you have two of that card in your hand. When you finish a hand it does not let you view the table the only options are exit or new deal. In 4 handed partner does not ask before going out. Fix these and I would give it a5 |
|
[2012-05-25] Susan: Stop and smell the roses Good game. Would like a turtle speed option slower than the 'slow'. also leave the final board up to allow time to study it at the end with a button 'ready to shuffle'. This could be option in settings for those who want to fly to next hand. Partner does do wierd stuff. |
|
[2012-05-25] Rodney: Canasta This version of Canasta is different from the standard one however AI strategy in "expert" seems simplistic with poor wasteful use of wild cards. I've won every match. |
|
[2012-05-24] Randi: Whoo hoi Love this game! |
|
[2012-05-22] Renee: Canasta Love it |
|
[2012-05-11] Rob Brown: AI partner is an idiot If the AI partner on expert level was a real person, it would not last two minutes in a game with my family. It runs down to only two cards in its hand constantly. Then it will not pick up the discard deck when there is a natural in it. |
|
[2012-05-11] Mark: like this one only comment I have is that the AI holds cards too much and Alfa lays down wild cards on piles that are not near filling a canasta web it should have used it to fill another canasta. |
|
[2012-05-06] Joan: Keeps spinning The game keeps turning when it is opened and won't allow you to play the game. I'm really disappointed. |
|
[2012-05-04] Rusu: Really bad partner strategy Please upgrade partner strategy because it sucks. You received many feedbacks on this issue but there is no action from your side. |
|
[2012-05-02] Lisa: Yay Love it. |
|
[2012-04-26] sarah: Still having issue I know how to play and it wont let me meld. Says i must have 2 of the same cards when im sitting on a natural canasta? ?? Very frustrating |
|
[2012-04-23] Mary: Sorry I bought it!!!! Partner play even on expert level too frustrating! Nothing like real play! Developer doesn't seem to care how this ruins any fun cause players have been asking for better AI play forever! I keep track of developers who don't listen to requests (kairosoft, riva), or offer 'free' games that are really 'pay to play' (dragonplay), and those who work hard to make their customers happy (psym mobile/gem miner; boris rayskiy/omaha). Sure others do too. |
|
[2012-04-19] Suzanne: Suzebee |
|
[2012-04-05] Marti: Love it Totally addictive! Great game! |
|
[2012-04-05] Dawn: Great!! This is the best canasta app I've found!! =) |
|
[2012-04-05] the 4/6/2012 : Okkkkkkkkkkk I really like this game so addicting |
|
[2012-04-04] sophie: Canasta Love this game |
|
[2012-04-01] Elena: Great game..would be a 5 if it was online against other players...well the option anyway |
|
[2012-03-31] Heather: Love it! |
|
[2012-03-31] Joan: Updates welcome Glad for any updates from the developer, including the lock-in position that keeps the game from shifting orientation with the slightest touch of the device. However, no options hold from one use of the game to the next. The player has to reselect all options every time the game is opened, including orientation. Please, please allow options to be saved from one day to the next. PS--In my two days of playing since the update, my game has crashed twice (2 out of 2 games) in the middle of a game. Not a happy customer. |
|
[2012-03-30] Tania: Excellent Great way 2 keep in card shape. U r then ready when ur friends come round for a game. Try it, u will love it. |
|
[2012-03-27] Zac: Zac Good game but hate the fact your partner goes out without asking. Please add this feature! Also could add another difficulty... Overall tho very fun app |
|
[2012-03-27] Kathi: Great canasta game Very good adaption. Needs ability to ask before going out in 4 player games and expert level not that difficult. But otherwise a great version and fun to play. |
|
[2012-03-26] suzi: Updates ? Quite good on galaxy s2 add option to change card backs and little harder to win would be good. |
|
[2012-03-26] John: Improvements in graphics needed Very good start, improvement in graphic need for tablets and also the option for your partner to ask if they want to go out! |
|
[2012-03-20] Jennifer: Boring The other player is too easy and |
|
[2012-03-15] Trisha: Needs improvement If I had a real partner who played like this one does I would hurl cards at them. I habe played this game since I was five. That is over fourty years. seriously! |
|
[2012-02-28] Ian: Great Implementation but need changes to Going Out Must implement the asking before going out provisions from Canasta Rules. And/Or seriously improve computer player decision making on going out. Is OK as is, but means you must change your own behaviour to be aware partner will happily dump and go out, leaving you with a fistful of points, and missed canasta opportunities. Developer indicated via email intent to add this. Looking forward to seeing it.. |
|
[2012-02-28] Paul: Well worth money Stats tell me I have played this game now more than 300 times. Yay! It is a great app. The stats tell me I win 75% of the time as well. Knowing canasta only from this game the computer really needs to improve its skills... will there be an update soon? |
|
[2012-01-23] David: My favorite game Very well done and addictive. No problems on my Android. Well worth the money. |
|
[2012-01-23] spmoore1: This is a great game to pass the time. Very addictive. The only improvements are sound for card shuffling and dealing [easy] and multiplayer [hard]. |
|
[2012-01-12] Derrick: You have to add in the option of asking opponent if they want to go out!! If not, this game has major flaw as computer can't think logically! |
|
[2012-01-11] shymdx: Pretty good Great game! But a little limited. Plays well. Would love it if one could have more decks of cards in a game, like 6 or more. More requirements to go out. Canasta of sevens & wild, maybe? THANKS AGAIN. GREAT GAME. |
|
[2012-01-11] Pro: Good game Needs online play for 5 stars |
|
[2012-01-11] Dillon: No tablet support Would be nice to to be able to play this game in landscape mode to support tablets. |
|
[2012-01-06] ranika: I love it. Play it everyday |
|
[2011-12-26] Kevin: Great, but... Need option requiring partner to ask if you want to go out! |
|
[2011-12-14] Rob: I would love to see run and wild card canastas. Good game. |
|
[2011-12-06] san: I love this game and works brilliantly on my xperia mini now riva fixed a minor issue. Thank you for that. Very pleased. |
|
[2011-12-04] David: Mice Nice looking game The app looks and works great...it does an amazing job of fitting all the cards in the screen real estate. AI also much improved. |
|
[2011-11-29] Wendy: Purchased it cause I love playin it online but it wont download to my phone very disappointed they nd a free canasta game :( |
|
[2011-11-22] Andy: Great game. Worth the spend. Hours of gameplay! Only minor suggestion is the points of each card are displayed somewhere (on info screen maybe?). |
|
[2011-11-21] Michael: Htc thunderbolt I have been looking for a canasta game for awhile. This is very nicely done. I would suggest adding an on-going winning percentage tally. |
|
[2011-11-21] katen marie: Katen Marie I grew up playing Canasta and I looked for a long time for a good Canasta game to play on my Droid. I love this app! Thank you :-)) |
|
[2011-11-21] David: Addictive game, great implementation of it, outstanding support from developer. Well worth the money! |
|
[2011-11-19] Narril: Very nice upgrade Ai is much improved. Still a little soft , but it is much more enjoyable now. Thanks |
|
[2011-11-18] Lisa: Love having it on phone, glad expert is more challenging but dont like that if you pick top card you get whole pile without having to laydown two. |
|
[2011-11-14] cjayeh: Super excited to finally have a Canasta on Droid. Update made expert AI play much better before was too easy. |
|
[2011-11-12] Jeffery: AI update Is Awesome..now some challange. Great update! |
|
[2011-11-12] TIM: Tablet Version The app needs to function in landscape mode. Currently the function keys and pop-up score screen always show as portrait. |
|
[2011-11-10] Jamie: ... Good game if a bit easy...def needs pvp and a stat record, then will give 5 stars |
|
[2011-11-07] hayley: Love it but... Love it but would be so much better If u could play online with friends!!! |
|
[2011-10-31] Derek: Like it, but not very colorful! Nice, but very windows 95 looking. How about adding a new mascot, colorful cards, and interesting backgrounds. Something retro and South American? |
|
[2011-10-30] patricia: No sound on my driod:( Would of been 5 stars. Needs sound and be able to change pics on card decks from ur own pics:) DROID |
|
[2011-10-30] Rebecca: Good game But is easy.. The ai seems to consistently play till cards from stock are gone. Never seems to go out without as a first time it puts cards down. |
|
[2011-10-27] Brandy: Love it! One of my favorite card games. |
|
[2011-10-26] Katrina: Suggestion Allow us to pick several suits to meld all at once. Allow us to add cards to a completed canasta. Improve AI so less predictable and more aggressive. |
|
[2011-10-16] jason: Still needs work love the fact there is finally a mobile canasta but still a few bugs to work out even on expert level |
|
[2011-10-10] Bryan: Bad AI Too easy. Interface is a clunky and the game's AI is braindead. |
|
[2011-10-09] Fis: Great game Been waiting years for an Android Canasta game. Great job, and thanks! |
|
[2011-10-08] Ann: Update is great! The longpress to selection for multiple cards sure helps and it seems much easier to select cards in general now on my Pantech Crossover. It's a small screen and was tricky before. Good Job!! |
|
[2011-10-05] Dylan: Awesome Game It is a fun game. |
|
[2011-09-29] Ben: Good game First time playing the game for the android. I really like the user interface and play speed. Keep up writing good software |
|
[2011-09-23] nikki: So happy to be able to play!!! Love it. Wish it had some more game variation options |
|
[2011-09-20] devlen: Good game There are a couple of flaws but overall the game is fun. A great beginners game . I'm a novice player and I have not lost a game on expert mode. |
