Version 1.0: Blackjack Coach! launch
First release on the App Store: four blackjack games with a live basic-strategy coach, hand debriefs, Coach Report, Coach Academy, Daily Stars, lifetime badges, and Ask Coach for Coach+ members. Practice chips only.
- Four game modes. Classic Blackjack (Perfect Pairs & 21+3), Free Bet Blackjack (free doubles/splits, dealer 22 pushes), Spanish 21 (no 10s, Match the Dealer, late surrender), and Double Down Madness (one-card start, multi-double, Push 22) — each with its own strategy chart and debrief.
- Live coach and Hand Debrief. The coach suggests Hit, Stand, Double, Split or Surrender on every decision with a one-line reason. After the hand, the debrief grades each decision against basic strategy.
- Coach Report and Academy. Coach Report tracks accuracy, insights and hand history over time. Coach Academy's 7 lessons teach the chart, hard/soft/pairs, each game mode and side bets — 2,350 practice chips in all.
- Daily Stars and lifetime badges. Coach-aligned hands earn Daily Stars on Daily, Weekly and Lifetime boards. Lifetime stars unlock the same ten prestige shields as Hold'em Coach, from Fortuna to Ra — prestige only, no chip rewards.
- Coach+ and Ask Coach. Coach+ adds Ask Coach about completed hands (10 messages a day), 50,000 practice chips daily, 2× chips on chip packs, 1.5× streak check-ins and no interstitial ads.
- Suena casinos and Game Center. Lucky Palms, Reno Grand and Vegas Royale. Thirteen Game Center achievements paying practice chips, Lifetime Hands and Biggest Win leaderboards, and iCloud sync of bankroll, history and settings.
