The iPad app is already in internal beta and will come this year.

It's the iPhone app, that will come in 2014.

thats one petty excuse of a game to be honest ive played the beta and this game is the worst IAP game ever.

Nonsense. One of the fastest playing card games I've ever played, and I've played quite a few.
