    If you've ever wanted to play poker with a trick up your sleeve, this is your game. It's a fun twist on a classic card game, but the presentation is pretty amateurish.
  2. Texas Cheat ‘Em does a good job of offering a novel twist on the typical poker formula but suffers from a lack of players to make this is worthy purchase for the added value of multiplayer.

    Cheat 'Em is not pretty, and this is a game best viewed through a haze of smoke, sunglasses, peeking out from under the brim of your visor.
  4. Cheating makes for a strong improvement on an already solid card game.
  5. It would be a better buy at half the price but at $9.99, it’s worth it if you’re a Texas Hold ‘Em fan.
  6. All in all, Texas Cheat 'Em plays fine, and the cheating aspect is handled really well.
  7. Texas Cheat 'Em may be built on an original idea, but it just can't pull it off.
  8. At the very least Texas Cheat 'Em does a good job of offering something new to an already saturated market.
  9. This is a textbook case of lackluster presentation and a clear sign of a lack of effort dragging down what would otherwise be a very solid game.
