Any time I pause for more than a few seconds, it claims my total time taken was 596 hours. This might be a bit of a glitch...considering that's more than 20 days.

I wish, just once, one of these games would take the time to make sure every board can be beaten rather than just have it randomly give you crap.

Why wouldn't Crystal make this a random deal? I've played the same card layout several times... that would NEVER happen with random cards. RIGGED!

i could see how this would become frustrating if you dont get the right cards, but it was my first time playing, and i got 7th for today, for a card game, it is definitely one of the better ones i have played. will come back and play again.

I have just updated my rating to 1/5, because I have been trying over the past week to load this game to play, which I at one point had favourited, and just can not get it to load. Played it a number of times on Kong, and elsewhere, this is a new problem, which I have reported, incidentally, also a while ago.

why do so many people say it is based on luck... inside the game there seems to be a pattern, and every card you turn at the bottom has 1 single option that gives you the best result... try to look for it...

5/5 for me. when i can't sleep, this is my go-to game on Kong. i can part zone out, part be strategic and it's fun every time. i agree this is far more entertaining than the standard versions of golf. THANKS!!!

countless versions of this game exist and this is by far one of the best executed versions i've ever played. kudos to the author for top-notch work. clones of standard games are usually quite ho-hum but this is a really polished and quite beautiful version. nice work.

Oh FFS, not another moaning posting about Zilch that's not in the Zilch game comments area! Download a life already. This game is not "luck" based because there are only a limited number of pre-programmed set card groups - it is not random. If you play long enough, your scores get better because you subconsciously learned their order from previous plays. Zilch is not "luck" based either or rigged, it's purely random, and the people who moan it's rigged don't know the difference between luck and random-ness, and being human, tend to remember their failures more acutely then their victories.

Actually, I complained a fair amount about Zilch being rigged because as far as my testing showed (to me) at the time, it WAS rigged. While this game is luck based, it also has a fair amount of strategy to limit the variance of that luck (namely in the form of Jokers), and you're not playing against a CPU opponent.
That was the argument most people had against Zilch. You were pitted against direct opposition and then faced with two clearly different sets of "luck".
It's nowhere near as spirit breaking if you simply lose to luck in an unopposed test of skill.

Great game and addictive - but would be more so if hands were truly random and didn't repeat. I have seen patterns repeat EXACTLY on a number of occasions now. Until it's truly random, just 4/5 from me.

This is my favorite card game at Kongregate.com, and I can tell that a lot of thought went into creating this game. Thank you, Crystal Squid!

@kactus. I love your logic. I also think the same thing. People will like the game more if they win. It makes complete sense for a Developer to rig a game to win.

racefan12, you've got a good point there, I didn't think of that. Also yes, prev comment was in jest, as you can tell by me returning to play some more :P
