13 Positive User Reviews for Kiki's Koi-Koi
Love this game!
Kudos!! This app just gets better and better! I've been a fan for years! Love the game, layout, ease of viewing the cards (not too small). Very beautiful and well done! Very addicting!
Fun game
I used to play this with my Mom as a kid but we called it Sakura. Same game and after playing this game a few days I am picking it up quickly and learning it as I go along. Perfect game for beginners or relearning the game (like me). Great graphics but I do hope that we could have different theme sets or maybe change the background. I will add this on my Moms phone so hopefully we will get to play against friends also.
Fun Game with fast response from developer
This app has helped me learn the suits & techniques so I can join in Hanafuda games with friends. The developer responded within a day to one of my questions. The game is a winner!
Elegant, Well-Designed Koi Koi App
Perfectly designed. Everything runs smooth, looks great, and the AI seems good. The only thing that could make it better is live multiplayer support but that is a whole different can or worms. $1.99 is totally worth it to not have annoying ads or buggy crashes like a lot of the other Koi Koi games on the app store.
Keeps crash halfway through a round against hard opponent
When i play and easy opponent on twelve months game it works fine. But when i play against a hard opponent in a twelve month game it keeps crashing. Not cool.
Wireless Multiplayer Please
This app is a lot of fun and very helpful at teaching you how to play! I got real cards as a gift but was having trouble getting the rules down. After playing this I feel like a master lol! My gf also got the app and it’s lots of fun playing two player on the go! Would be amazing if they added wireless multiplayer to allow you to play with people who also purchased the app on there phone!
Need online multiplayer
I’m new to Koi-Koi. Having played it in Yakuza and have Koi-Koi Japan (cost a couple bucks and has online multiplayer mode) on Steam. I was hooked so I was looking for a mobile version.
This game’s UI is well designed. The AI seems to be good on hard. However, there is no sound for me. I tried restarting my phone, uninstalling and reinstalling the app but still no sound. Yes, I can listen to music while playing but part of the experience is for the game’s music to pump up when you choose to Koi
nice implementation
however its hard to strategize when you cannot see chaff collected. if you could at least see the by holding a finger over them or something, would make this my main hanafuda app.
Pretty good, but not perfect
This is a decent version of koi koi, but it seems to be in dire need of some rules tweaking and settings. Currently there are no month yakus in the game, for instance. I also wish you could just tap cards instead of just dragging them… and I wish there was a landscape mode.
There is another review that complains about there being no sound in the game, but this is untrue! The game has some nice calm music and sounds, BUT you have to turn off the silent switch on your phone for sound to work :).
Online multiplayer please!
We love this game and this version. You have one of the best versions out there! We’d love an online multiplayer option so we can play with each other while being apart. We’d be willing to pay!!
Love it!
Well-designed and intuitive tutorial, the game itself is my go-to app for a mentally challenging diversion. I only wish there was a way I could re-play certain hands to see how different decisions would have played out. This would help me get better from here on.
2 Negative User Reviews for Kiki's Koi-Koi
Used to love this game...
I used to love to play this game while listening to audiobooks and music. But now it doesn’t let me play my own audio while I play Koi-Koi... It’s sad, this was a really fun way to keep my hands busy.
Probability matrix gives computer the advantage
I have my own deck to play hanafuda and I’ve never received Moon/Cherry Cups on first draw three games in a row. Also the computer receives more matches when drawing from the deck. As I have been playing hanafuda for over a decade I can still win most matches but having a play against a score of 30+ is quite difficult on the third hand after only 3 draws. I can’t recreate that scoring opportunity with my own deck.
