Best Solitaire game available
Sat Dec 03 2022 Jland45677I have downloaded maybe 6 different versions of solitaire and they all have pros and cons, either the font sizes was off or blurry or auto help was on and couldn’t be turned off, or a version was laggy when clicking on cards in pile then it took 2 or 3 seconds to flip cards or they had monthly charges vs a one time charge, over all they all was decent or great but had one issue from above that made me want to delete it. This version has ZERO issues and non of the problems above and over all is really great. Flawless and it needs a 5 star rating from everyone. I’m in no was attached to the makers I’m a regular user. I hardly ever do reviews but sense I took my hard time to go through like 6 versions I feel that they deserve a good review. I highly recommend this version.
Better Than Most though still going awry
Sat Jan 20 2024 ttu101Not having tried every one of these ad-based solitaire games (or ad platforms as I sometimes call them) I can only say that so far this is the best of the bunch. It has the most realistic "random" feel (card layout) and is fairly customizable. That said, as with everything else the relentless demand for greater revenue continues to degrade the user experience. Developer suggestions: allow us to turn off the "stack" animation; give those of us with iffy vision an option for larger card faces; exert more control over your ad displays. As to ads, I understand you don't govern them but there's been a real uptick in making it difficult to turn the ad off even after the allocated time. We should not have to close the app to get rid of the ad and as you are (I assume) in the EU you would have a bit more control over deceptive deployments. One other thing: a reset feature - we should not have to dump everything to avoid a too large cache especially as that pertains more to ads. Thank you.
Fun but it’s a scam
Sat May 28 2022 CApncrunch ogI recently got this game and I won my first round, and then after that I kept loosing. I always tried to think super hard about it but I still lost consistently, until I realized it wasn’t because of me. The game was set up in a way for you to lose, the deal was bad. I tested this by using auto hints the entire game, and I still lost. Winning is simply based on if they give you a good deck of cards. Being in IT though, I understand the struggle of coding a game like this that works by random generation, and how hard it is to make the game detect an impossible deal from the moment it starts, but there must be a way. Overall, it works like perfect classic solitaire and the settings are simple yet fun. Just the downside is the faultless losses a player would experience. Especially coming from a competitive person as myself, the game would be a lot more enjoyable to me if I knew I was fully responsible for my wins/loses. That’s why it dropped the rating down two stars for me, because what’s a game like this that doesn’t depend on the player you know?
Needs a few fixes.
Mon Aug 21 2023 Dusk showedI got this game because it’s the only one I can find without a subscription to remove ads. That is the only reason I still have it at this point because as far as game play goes it’s not one of the good solitaire apps. The main issue is their draw 3 games will deal one winnable game out of every maybe 20/30 I play. There’s been several where I restarted the same deal and tried other solutions to win and it was not there, kinda kills the enjoyment when there’s no available moves after making 6 moves. Following that the next thing that bothers me is how slow card flips and moves are. Most other solitaire apps I can complete a game in 50 seconds to 1:15, this one takes about 2 minutes + each game making the same average number of moves. Last thing is more of convenience but it would be nice if when there was no possible moves left the notice about that came up automatically instead of having the scroll the deck multiple times before hitting the hint button.
Annoying ads lagging interface
Sat Dec 11 2021 lfint00The game itself is good. However, sometimes I will click the deck to deal more cards and the interface lags. I think that my click didn’t register, so I click again and the pile deals twice. There is no back button, so I can’t get back to the card I should be working with. Sometimes the interface is over sensitive, and I will be resting my thumb on the edge of the screen near the deal pile and it accepts that as input. Once again, no back button.
As for ads, they are between EVERY game, so if it’s a short game and it’s only been a few seconds since I saw an ad, there’s still another ad. If I win a game, a nice prize would be to skip the ad, but no such luck, there is still an ad. One ad with the white background,is impossible to close, so i have to kill the app to close the ad. Also, it would be nice if ads followed the color scheme of my phone- so when I play at night I’m not suddenly bombarded with a white screen.
Must Download
Thu Sep 01 2022 Jazzylv5Best solitaire game out there it’s challenging especially daily challenges it’s simple yet actually challenging and strings offers many variety of things like one or the three cards. Scoring or no scoring. Nice variety of backgrounds, card backs, and card faces. The ads are so short it’s not even funny. Plus it’s only after and or starting a game but you don’t have to watch whole thing like 5 seconds in or so, on the top left corner u will see arrows, click that and ad stops and gives you three things to click after that. The arrow on top right, and the x if you choose not to download, and x again or right corner. SUPER FAST I LOVE IT OBVIOUSLY AND ALSO YOU DONT NEED ANYTHING TO PLAY. NO CHIPS. NO MONEY. NO DIAMONDS. ETC. ETC. ETC. ETC.
Great app-plays like I paid for it
Sun Jan 02 2022 lovemelovemyfotosHigh five to the developers. In fact I’ll try any game they’re associated with. This app is free so there are ads but only between games and now I can close them instantly. At first the ads lasted for about 30 seconds, which was fine because I like a break between games to look away from the screen, but now I don’t even get those. Banners are at the bottom so they’re not distracting like other games whose top banners make playing impossible. I play with the sound off so there’s no danger of annoying noise when the ads pop up. Great app. The hints are helpful as is the undo feature.
Great game, ads with tiny X or no exit at all
Tue Nov 23 2021 Ben_GonThe game itself is a great time killer and with the option for a winning deal, very satisfactory. I get there has to be ads to support a free game but the ad designs are getting very sloppy and buggy. The exit X is TINY. It’s ridiculous. You will hit the ad almost every time which will either send you to the Store or will send you to a website, automatically generating traffic for them and adding the website to your browsing history. The mute button is the same issue. Sometimes there are overlapping buttons or no exit at all and you’re stuck.
It’s getting to the point that I’m just going to delete the app because you can’t stop the ads and now you can’t close or mute them either. When a developer ignores the impact ads have on their UX and just collects the checks, it’s time to move on. It was fun while it lasted.
Worst Solitaire Version EVER
Wed Jun 15 2022 enc0323I love to play solitaire so I've tried many different websites/apps. I would say that I'm pretty skilled at the game; however, on this app in particular I lose SO much more than I ever do. I'm certain that they have programmed the app so that there are less possible moves than normal. Also, after almost EVERY game, there is an add. While this is
common among free apps, each game of solitaire tend to be extremely short (sometimes there isn't a single move in the deck) and I feel like I spend more time watching ads then actually playing. I would not download this app again and would not recommend it to anyone else.
The only reason why this app got 2 stars instead of 1 is because the "hint" feature is quite helpful since it tells you when there are no more possible moves in the game and to start a new one.
Best
Sat Dec 02 2023 ED1901I play a lot of solitaire. This one is the best. I get to play without long, drawn out ads, but reasonable lengths. I click on more ads because of my interest and the fact that they’re not the annoying ones that try to force you to click on them x’s 3. The game itself has the usual themes but it also gives suggestions on plays. I can start a game over as many times as I want to try to win. I’ve never understand points for solitaire but I can just ignore them as well. Would like a button to automatically start over but I can just press the back button as usual no biggie. Ta!
