★★★★★ Why make card colors hard to distinguish?
Sat Nov 18 2023 JavaAddictThis was the perfect game. My favorite game. I found it relaxing, even meditative. That is, until the first update in two years ruined the card colors. Now I can’t find a single color option that doesn’t have at least two suits that look nearly identical. Why? Seriously, why? Not all change is improvement. By all means, if you love monochromatic color schemes, keep ‘em. Keep ‘em all. But why take away color schemes that were easy to distinguish and… well, colorful? (I’m holding that 5th star hostage until the colors come back.) Now that my neurotic rant is over, kudos for excellent design, both in this game & Knotwords.
★★★★★ Could be a great game…
Tue Jun 17 2025 WannabeRamoneI love this game except for one MAJOR point of frustration…the auto-move. Most other solitaire games will auto-move to the most beneficial pile when you click the card…this one just seems to move to the closest option, which makes for extra moves, or; worse, having to undo a move. On top of that, there’s no way to turn off this feature, so accidental clicks result in completely unintentional moves. For such a smart game, I would expect the designer to have put more care and thought into this.
It’s a shame, because it makes what could be a great game unnecessarily frustrating at times.
Also, I’ve never actually quit a game on here…ever. Yet, somehow I show I’ve lost seven games…and the number keeps growing, despite never actually having quit a game. I’ve restarted several hands before finally winning and then se always count as “wins”…yet I keep seem to mysteriously increase in my number of games lost…I’m sure I cannot be the only one experiencing this!
★★★★★ Fun, with a few minor caveats
Sun Dec 10 2023 FlambedudeGreat game! There are two bugs I’ve run into that have annoyed me but nothing severe enough to make me stop playing: 1. If you do too much tapping on random stacks of cards or use too many fingers at once, the game will suddenly stop registering a movable stack as movable, so no amount of tapping or dragging or anything except a force quit and reopening the game will fix. 2. Tapping on cards moves them to stacks that can take them, or the top row. There are some weird king/ace bugs as far as what will stack upon a single tap, and what won’t therefore forcing manual placement. Overall, nothing that is so annoying as to make me uninstall the game (unlike a word game that wouldn’t recognise “raccoon” as an English word).
★★★★★ Fun game even in landscape mode
Mon Jul 10 2023 cheeriegirlGreat adaptation on the original Solitaire. What the developer doesn’t show in the screenshots is the game can be played in either portrait or landscape mode on an iPad.
As others have stated, there is a server glitch. The number of wins differs based on the device I use — iPhone or iPad. I only have 1 iCloud account and I am signed in to that single iCloud account when I play. So, the levels, the game wins, and other achievements should be exactly the same regardless of the device.
★★★★★ Love this game!
Fri Sep 03 2021 EddietpLess is more. I have made it my goal to get every achievement and I’m still working on those win 1000 games and time goals. Any tips on how to improve speed? Every game is winnable, hit undo and try different moves, it works. The hint feature is great when your mind is numb after 50 games of trying to get the least moves possible or zero undos. Lots of simple challenges has made it worthwhile. Looked up Zach on the internet and he seems like a quiet genius, thanks for your imagination!
★★★★★ Good game, needs better iCloud sync
Wed Oct 13 2021 sprinklekitty77I really enjoy this game for a quick break. The variations are all fun and I liked going through the different modes (one suite, two suites,…). I play on my iPad and my iPhone but the achievements don’t sync and neither does the progress through the numbered decks. I’d love to be able to pick up a different device and continue where I left off, no matter which device it was. After that change it’s an easy 5-star recommendation.
★★★★★ Numerous small bugs that will never get fixed
Tue Aug 06 2024 SaltedLevityLike every other game from this developer / these developers (looks like this was predominantly by one of a pair), the game is riddled with small bugs that will never get fixed as the devs move on to their new hyperfixation/project.
It’s incredibly annoying to have your “total plays” count arbitrarily go up when you’ve never abandoned a game. When you see your total wins number not budge with it, feels like every time you open it and play a level it’s telling you you’re a failure because you “gave up” — except you didn’t. And there isn’t even a way to reset your progress. Happens on numbered decks too.
Also an annoying animation bug (with haptic response) after using the hint and then playing a hand from the deck where a card will fly up and make it seem like you did an additional move.
Just like their sudoku and word games — I have zero faith these bugs will be addressed or the game ever updated.
★★★★★ THIS GAME IS FUN
Sun Sep 18 2022 Raptor136I like it most because it is easy to learn and very hard to master all the variables. If I could suggest a change in a future upgrade I’d add a stat to the finish that shows your percentage of wins without using an undo. You get total games / total wins to show a win percentage. I’d also like to see total wins / total wins without an undo percentage. But, it is still a great game. Thank you.
