Now with 50 different varieties.
UPDATE: Fixed, and SO quickly! I am very grateful to the developers - you ROCK! I have my favorite evening wind-down back. ❤️ Rating raised to 5 stars. Generally I love this app, but the latest update has a major problem for me. I like to listen to music while I play. This update introduced sounds to the game. You can turn them off, so I have no problem with that, but even with sounds turned off, the app will not allow you to play sounds from an audio app in the background. I hope they fix this soon, because it makes it impossible for me to use the app to wind down with calming music, which was the main purpose for which I used it.
I was looking for a solitaire app that had spider solitaire without ads: check. Also, not a subscription based model: check. Not too flashy and overkill on sparkles and animations: check. Other games, if i was feeling up for a challenge: check. However, because I play on my phone and not a tablet, the card stacks are too far up that when ever I move cards, I like the drag feature more than the tap, it drags down the iPhone Home Screen and my cards get jumbled. It is very aggravating. There should be a way to hide the menu bar too. Also, I’m lazy sometimes and there’s no hint button? Lastly and this is just because I’m on my phone, the cards are so small, it makes it hard to grab the ones I want. I don’t have huge fingers but it’s still a bit of an issues. Overall, there seems to be a good amount of content for what you pay for, I just wish I could have tried it before I committed to purchasing it.
Since the most recent update the app has prompted me several times to write a new review, so I am: I’ve used this app daily for years and the only complaint I have ever had is the cards unexpectedly freeze mid-game, regardless what device I am using at the time. Sometimes hitting the “undo” button a few times unfreeezes it but that cannot always be done without ruining the game. Since the last update, this behavior continues. Disappointing! I do love this app and I keep it updated. But too often in some games it will suddenly only allow the bottom card to be moved (even when moving a stack is legal), will not allow a card to be moved at all (again, even. Legal move), or it will put a card underneath rather than on top of a stack. This is frustrating at times.
Update: recently the developers updated this game. The appearance is crisper, a little bolder. But something went wrong with the playing area. When moving a long stack, cards get left and then are stuck in that disjointed position. This means a series of cards might be moved right off the screen and cannot be accessed. Former: I've been playing this game for years, with no complaints (except that the former icon was far better). The one suggestion I'd like to see is this: include a larger background! The background is an image that is too short and so you always go beyond it. Is it that hard to use a longer image? If you like solitaire, you'll like owning this app.
I’ve been using this solitaire game app for years and and never really considered trying a different solitaire app. This game in my opinion checks off all the boxes for a great player experience. I just completed my third game since updating and it seems to be working great! Thanks I also noticed that the most recent update won’t let me stream music while playing, it would really be nice to fix that problem. The solitaire game is still great. Thanks
I play it too often! This app provides a large variety of solitaire games. All of the ones that I play operate flawlessly. The graphics are quite satisfying and are even improved in the latest update. Thank you. I am constantly amazed by the variety of games that are part of this app. They keep adding new games and variations of old ones. Quite fun and quite impressive.
I have been playing mostly Free Cell but occasionally the others regularly since I received my iPad December 2015. Every game has a solution. I logged 7000+ wins and 4 losses. If I get stuck, I backstep and try again. The only criticism I could offer would be that the “Victory Lap” is cute, the first 100 or so, times … (I could really love a short victory lap option setting ). Thanks for a wonderful product.
Trying to be objective and having no issues with the game itself. Me personally, I really don’t like the updated graphics, they feel very cartoonish to me. I wish the would have left an option to continue with the old graphics or made it more obvious if there is a way to revert back. Having been playing this game for years but miss the classiness of the previous graphics.
