The game's graphics also incorporate an element of advanced artificial intelligence (AI), switching up the designs on the backs of the cards at random — sometimes you get floral patterns, and sometimes you get a smiley sun with sunglasses on. The game takes place on a green backdrop, which simulates a card table nicely and adds a good touch of realism, fully immersing the player in the atmosphere of a real-world card playing session.

:lol

The next paragraph or two about the sound was pretty good, too.  You guys should go read it.

They were.  Its a tongue-in-cheek style of comedy.  And pretty funny, too!

Its like calling the Soviet Trabant car a break-through in modern Soviet engineering.  ;)
