It seems like everyone is playing Texas Hold ‘Em these days. From novices playing in their friend’s basement to aspiring multi-million dollar prize winners playing in a tournament in Vegas.

Either way there’s a good reason for the popularity, Texas Hold ‘Em is a fun game that, like all great games, is easy to learn yet difficult to master.

Poker Hero: Card Strategy does an incredible job of making an already great card game, Texas Hold ‘Em, even more fun, more entertaining and a total blast to play.

From an attractive layout by its designers to a solid execution by its developers, this game has lots to offer.

Features:

If you’re wondering what’s so great about Poker Hero: Card Strategy, by Candy Grill LLC, let’s start with how its array of features turns Texas Hold ‘Em on its head and makes it a game you won’t want to put down.

Getting started is simple enough, just open the app and before you know it the tutorial is walking you though the basics of betting and playing a hand against an opponent. This is great for anyone who is unfamiliar with the game and eases you right into the action.

You are quickly up and running, which is terrific, and introduced to the “enhancements” this game brings to the table (pun intended). They are called “abilities” and each one has its own special powers. Each “hero” you select comes with its own set of abilities.

There are over 50 abilities so you’re sure to find ones that you love using and get very comfortable with. Here are the first three that you’ll encounter. Day and Night redials the first and fifth community cards, Asceticism deals you 3 hole cards, and Vision let’s you see a random opponent’s card.

When you beat another player you earn gold and a reward. Plus, your first victory with every Hero earns you a trophy daily and they are the key to unlocking new Heros.

This really adds to the fun since each Hero comes with its own assortment of abilities. We especially like this added motivation, it keeps you coming back and learning more and more about the game.

As you win hands and beat other players you also move up to higher positions in the league with higher rewards that you get when the season’s over. There are 15 leagues in all starting with Tutorial III and going all the way up to the Grand Master League. In the 3 Tutorial Leagues the tutorial is active and offering advice so you’re hip to all new options instead of wondering what the f is going on.

Pretty cool if you ask me.

Appearance and Layout:

It’s pretty obvious the developers of this game are a talented bunch of nerds and artists. The game plays very fluidly and looks great.

At the same time, and very importantly, nothing is over done. There are no graphics, animations, or weird features that are just there to show off and distract you from having fun. Everything fits and makes sense.

The game is easy to navigate; figuring out how to take advantage of the different in-app features is easily done.

Whatever you “need to know” within the game is always clearly displayed, leaving little room for confusion.

Value:

Poker Hero: Card Strategy is free to download and so far we don’t see where IAPs are necessary.

First time players are led through the basics and so winning your first hand or two should come pretty quickly.

Further playing and moving up the ladder, however, does require you beat other players and earn gold. If you run out of gold you can buy more using real money. You can also buy “Orbs” which give you access to different skill cards.

As a whole, this game is tons of fun, easy to play, and you can likely play many hours, if not indefinitely, without spending a dime.

Poker Hero: Card Strategy requires iOS 7.0 or later and is compatible with iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch.
