Wow, I bought it now 3 days ago and I am addicted I can't stop playing that stupid game ^^ I just love the different dices and the gem trophies. One thing that would make it even better would be the possibility to play with a friend on one iPone/iPod Touch. Nevertheless my favourite at the moment.

I love Motion-X Poker. I can't wait to see what they do next. I bought it at $5 and I'm not sorry–it was so worth it. Not just the game, but the whole UI for menus and achievements was so elegant that I just loved it. For most people I think that kind of stuff is invisible, and that's the point: good UI should seem invisible. I always notice these little things, though, and they really impressed me over there at Motion-X. There are a couple easter eggs in the interface, too!

But I digressed from what I meant to say, which is that I really hope they're dropping the price because they already made so much money that they can afford to see if the lower price makes economic sense. I would hate to think a standout app like this wasn't making enough money!

love this game. Now that it is only 0.99 you would be dumb not to get it.

Yep. Great game… what people said above.

However, I have two gripes (you might think I'm nit-picking, but seriously, when you're this close… why not make a perfect app?):

They changed the icon from a lovely rendered 3D Dice to a cheap looking one with the word "Poker" blazoned across it. I understand they want to differentiate their apps (Dice and Poker) but it clearly says under the icon "Poker". Use a symbol.

Also, while the artwork throughout the game is very polished the splash screen looks like a windows share-ware app. It just looks cheap.

Is there a way to turn off the vibration and possibly save some battery?

One of the first games I bought for my iPhone. It still gets some play. A great deal at 99 cents.

This was one of the first games I bought and it's still one of the best games in the store.

And I play it on the subway all the time without issues.
