Card Ace is an excellent implementation of Texas Hold ‘em on the Palm Pre. Developed by the same folks behind Word Ace, which remains one of the best games on the Pre so far, Card Ace brings the same attention to detail and polished design to your Pre. It comes with full online play, including the ability to chat with other players while in the middle of a game. Your account is shared with Word Ace, so if you already have an account for that game, you can simply use it again here. You can then use the same set of chips you’ve been winning in Word Ace.

Gameplay is very, very good and offers a really immersive and social experience. Each player profile can have a photograph associated with it, making gameplay significantly more personal and engaging. In the works is the ability to buy additional chips and other in-game purchases. Once again, the app manages to present a lot of information and options in a surprisingly uncluttered and appealing manner – there’s a lot of stuff on screen, but it’s organized very well and blends in with regular gameplay. This free app is very well designed and offers full and engaging Texas Hold ‘em on the Palm Pre – a must download for all Pre gaming and cards fans.
