GamePro
To be frank the game is just very lacking and very bland. With all the great summer titles hitting high numbers it's a safe bet that this one will make the scratch list in the next few months.

The card game may be old, but it’s far from obsolete, providing a perfect counter from the faster-paced, high-concentrate titles.
Read Full Review >Eurogamer
It's a solid adaptation of a fun card game, and at 400 Microsoft Points it's priced just right.
Read Full Review >NZGamer
It's a decent adaptation of a fun card game, and at 400 Microsoft Points it's priced just right. If a few things were tidied up this would be one of the elite card genre titles, but it still holds its own against the competition.

But the bottom line is that playing Gin online is now possible for about $5.,It works, and is just as addictive as the real thing.
Read Full Review >IGN
More could have been done with creating a cool look and adding some incentives for playing. Still, Gin Rummy can get addictive. There's just not a whole heck of a lot here.
Read Full Review >Official Xbox Magazine
For anyone who enjoys tossing cards, this game is a relaxing experience, and worth chilling out to. [Sept 2008, p.79]
Worth Playing
It's a very specific genre game, but for those into the genre, Gin Rummy is a great title.

Another low-grade offering. [Issue#34, p.117]
