Great game, i love play poker and puzzles, poker and solve puzzles together is awesome, the music is relaxing, very good game for relaxing and forget the day to day problems
[b]poker hands[/b] mixes the matching mechanics from games like [b]2048[/b] with the rules of poker. move all available cards at the same time and try to create hands (5 cards) according to the goals displayed in the top right corner. pushing cards against walls merges them, but you can also use incomplete hands to block, as you can't merge two hands of 3 cards, for example. possible combinations can be brought up at any time (click them for a text description), but there are only two more mechanics. poker islands on the sides of most levels release cards, unless they are blocked, then they move elsewhere and release a card there. the other mechanic is numbered tiles, representing the amount of cards you can discard there, then they turn into gaps that can also be used to your advantage. [b]50 levels without a turn limit[/b], only one unlocked at a time, but [b]some levels are timed[/b], meaning the goal starts relatively low, maybe with a pair, and if the timer runs out, stakes get ...
I'm terrible at this
I paid a dollar for this game and got an hour and 15 minutes of enjoyment out of it. It was better for me than buying a double cheeseburger at McDonald's. Reasonable value for the its pricing. Some of the other reviewers have commented that the user interface needs more features; they obviously missed the fact that the developer is "Minimol" games. I personally liked the simplistic ui.
This was more fun than 2048 and likewise. I didn't understand the timed levels really, as it mostly acted very weirdly. Sometimes, the timer stood still, sometimes the next target did not get refreshed, sometimes I won with a 'Huh? How did I get this?' but apart from that, it wasn't hard to do. I liked the fact that the board was not constantly the same. Only really negative point is that on the Deck, figures were hard to read and it made me restart on the PC when I reached a harder level near the end I had to do over and over and I got tired of zooming in and out and not seeing even much better at all. Hence the extra playtime. All in all, I enjoyed it. Nice twist.
100% Completion in just over an hour. The difference between this poker style game and others is that it has a board game like effect where cards are drawn on each of the different four sides and you can move the direction with the arrow keys to create a five card stack. The cards will add up with the adjacent card when pushed into a corner or wall where both stacks are combined. If you make a mistake while creating a poker hand that doesn't win; it will forever be stuck occupying the current slots on the board. Which is why this mechanic can make the game a bit more difficult on certain levels where the cards spawn based on RNG. (random number generator) Overall was an exciting game to play with me giving a rating of 8/10 based on the price which is very good and the amount of game play that comes from fifty levels.

It's simple and not terribly difficult, but it does have some issues with relying on randomness. I preferred the more logical levels where most of the cards required were already on the board. I recommend Poker Hands for players looking for a short and simple sliding puzzle game.
A creative way to play poker. Beautiful and fun game.
A very creative mix of Poker and 2048 games, creating unique and fun gameplay. An excellent entertainment option for those who like any of these games or for those who simply want to have an innovative and fun challenge. Congratulations developers!
