It's nice but not for me.
Good Game...New Larger Cards are Great

Pros
I've played this for years and the new larger cards are appreciated.
Cons
The new scoreboard is different compared to the older version with scores at the top and bottom right. Maybe I'm just not use to it yet.
Summary
STILL an outstanding freeware game.
Not what I expected. Uninstalled.

Pretty good for a free download

Pros
Game is more advanced than those offered by the big "card" manufacturers. Not having to "knock" when you have "gin" is a nice feature.
Cons
The "free" version does not allow you to enlarge the cards. Also there is only one variable (Oklahoma) available. There is no option to have a game that has three games to win a match.
Summary
A great place to practice your Gin Rummy Skills.
nice gin rummy game

Pros
auto knock detection. The software will tell you when you make gin even if you miss it yourself. This is the only gin rummy game that knows how to do this.
Cons
nothing wrong other than you will waste lots of time playing when you should be working.
Summary
Added bigger newer cards with themes for catd, dogs holiday and vista style spring. Best of all its FREE!! Still and always will be the #1 on the most popular catagory for gin rummy because no other gin rummy game even comes close. Yeah baby!! (pump fist)
Version 3.0 is here with awsome graphics.
txhvp
Pros
New card themes, stronger opponent, Full screen background image. Download.com will have it in a few weeks, If you cant wait, come to the home page and download it
Cons
The game is perfect. Nothing not to like. If it was not the best Gin Rummy game, it wouldnt be getting 250 downloads a week. Which is more than any other Gin Rummy game.
Summary
This Gin Rummy game is the only one that shows you how it plays with a vew opponent hand menu option. Without this option, the program could be building random hands and proclaiming a win. Also our game detects gin and deadwood automatically which no other game knows how to do.
Great Game. "Oklahoma" Rummy included.
JB_Lapree
Pros
You can go to "Program Files/VPRummy/pics" and put in your own desktop sized background picture. This will fill your entire screen. Just go to the "select background" menu and chose it. I like the "Hide Desktop" option with the smaller backgrounds.
Cons
They need to include some larger backgrounds for HD wide screens.
Summary
Great program. I have used this program for YEARS. It has continued to attract me for a game of Gin against the computer. The developer made it compatible with Vista and that means the program is still being supported. De-select animation on slower processors. When animation is selected the program seems to run at the speed of your processor. It runs slower on my 366mHz. Faster on my 600mHz, and it flies on my 2GHz laptop. Understandable. I use 21 pixels in the "card spacing" option. It gives you more space between the cards. If you maintain your computer properly you should have no problems with this program. It has worked on every one I have owned.
Pretty Good Little Game

Pros
I like that the game plays quickly, but doesn't try to log you off if you have to step away.
Cons
Handling the cards takes a little getting used to, but it's not too bad.
Summary
Has it's flaws, but it's still fun to play
catsandcarol
Pros
A mind challenge
Cons
Program errors - programmer notified.
Summary
1. It's free
2. It works on XP
3. It's easy to play
4. You can play just against a computer
Seriously flawed.
Pros
Easy install.
Cons
Program is slow to respond. Program went gin on first card drawn 14 times in a row. Program discarded multiple cards to the waste pile repeatedly, one instance while knocking; resulting in three winning scores off one hand. When scoring, the program gives preference to sets (3 or 4 of a kind) before straights (3 or more in a row of the same suit), and so often does not give the player the best score possible. Twice the program froze when it lost by more than 50 points. The advertising screen for online poker venues which must be closed before the program will shut down is very annoying.
