Our biggest update ever. The whole club got a new look. • Cartoon Club: every card, face and button is redrawn in a bold cartoon style, and the face cards come alive. You can switch back to Deco or Neon Pixel in Settings. • Daily Deal: a new deal every day, always winnable. Build a streak. • Cards feel real: they lift when you pick them up, cast shadows and turn over. • Every Guaranteed Win deal is now proven winnable. • Restart Deal: play the same deal again from the start. • Out of hints in a Season? Buy one with your Tips. • The game follows your iPhone's Reduce Motion and largest text sizes. • Ready for iOS 27, plus lots of fixes. Thank you for playing!

The biggest update to the club since launch. Here is everything new since 1.4, in plain words. NEW WAYS TO PLAY • Late Invitations. On Opening Nights in Weeks 5 to 8 the house names one suit. Bring that foundation home, Ace through King, and take an extra $2 in Tips. It is optional and never blocks Cash Out. • The Favor. Spend banked Heat on One More Pass, an extra undo (Take It Back), or an extra hint (A Word). • Overheat keeps climbing. From Week 5 the bonus ladder goes past 200% and up to 20x, so a huge Night keeps paying. • Late house rules. From Week 5, ordinary Nights alternate Changing Partners and Level Heads. The map tells you before you deal. • First Build Pays. From Week 5 on Floor 3 and up, each card earns build Heat once per Night. • The Heat tab. From Week 5, extra trips through the stock cost Heat, and your next scores pay it off first. • Perfect now also counts when all four foundations are complete. • Charms go home. A Charm can fill any gap in a foundation, and Smart Tap no longer spends it on the wrong pile. THE SHOP • A new shop. Browse everything as tiles, tap one to read about it, then buy. Purchases fly to their spot on your shelf, glass, or deck. • The shop special now upgrades one of your own cards instead of adding a new one. • A Deck & perks page shows everything you own. NIGHTS • Cleaner scoring. Each play prints one clear receipt, then one milestone. Portraits stay visible under a softer shine. • Better hints. Hints point to useful moves, explain setup moves, and show numbered markers for five seconds. Replay the last hint free while the board has not changed. • The rail shows END NIGHT below the target and CASH OUT with your exact Tips once you qualify. • One tap reveals the whole Night result, and it now features your best play of the Night. Tap the verdict banner to jump straight to the receipt. • Undo history survives leaving and resuming a Night. Last Orders offers Use Undo or The Favor directly. • A soft tap on iPhone for card placements and Night milestones. Turn it off under Haptics in House Comfort. MENU AND COMFORT • The Queen of Hearts and the King of Spades now greet you on the main menu, in both House Styles. • Reduced Motion covers all the new effects. • The game now shares anonymous play data (Night outcomes, scores, crashes) so we can tune difficulty. No account, no ads, no tracking. Turn it off under Share Anonymous Play Data in House Comfort. Thank you for playing.

Solitaire After Dark is now free. No ads, no paywalls, and nothing at the tables locked behind a purchase - every Night, every Regular, and all seven classic tables are simply there, for everyone. A new Support Us door on the main menu says so plainly. Behind it: an optional tip jar if the house has been good to you (a tip unlocks nothing - it just keeps the lights on), and a shelf of the other games we make. Thank you to everyone who bought the game when it was paid. You made the free version possible.

Velvet now teaches. A guided lesson deals a real hand and walks you through it card by card, then keeps the tips coming while you play it out. Perfect for anyone who has never played solitaire or wants a refresher. Find it any time from the learn solitaire chip on the menu. The table also speaks up when a deal has no moves left, so you are never left staring at a dead board.

The Second Season — our biggest update yet, built for clarity. • House Style: one switch in Settings dresses the whole game. Keep the classic Neon Pixel look, or step into After Dark Deco — redrawn cards, art-deco menus, and larger, cleaner type that is easy on the eyes. • The living deck: guests now carry portraits, moods, and glances of their own. • Nights with meaning: story beats as you play, callbacks the next Night, a week that builds to something, and epilogues when the season ends. • The Guest Book remembers — including the connections between your Regulars. • Gentle House: a protected first fine, reduced motion, larger text, and unhurried timing options. • Game Center fixes and many small improvements throughout.

Achievements really work now. The club has been handing your achievements to Game Center all along and Game Center was never hearing them. That is fixed. Sign in, play a Night, and everything you have already earned catches up on its own - no action needed, nothing lost.

Game Center tune-up. - Achievements now sync reliably: the club re-reports everything you have earned each time it opens, so any missing medallions appear in Game Center after your next visit. - No action needed. Sign in to Game Center, drop by the club, and your Guest Book catches up on its own.

Game Center has arrived at the club. - 34 achievements with engraved medallion badges: Guest Book unlocks, floor climbs, and challenge wins now count in Game Center. - 8 leaderboards: Season and Night Heat, best play, best chain, deepest week, lifetime Heat, plus Classic solitaire streak and fastest win. - New GAME CENTER page in the Guest Book. - Already a regular? Your earned achievements are granted automatically on first launch.

Thanks for playing Solitaire After Dark. This update is all about fairness and clarity, based on your feedback: - THE VELVET ROPE IS FAIRER. Running out of stock passes no longer dead-ends a Night out of nowhere. Past your free passes, the rope will SELL you another for a Heat toll (with a clear two-tap confirm), and a Night is never called lost while a play is still possible. - HOLD TO INSPECT. Press and hold any card for a moment to see exactly what it does - VIP house rules in plain words, enhancements, peeked cards, and the stock's current toll. Inspecting never costs you a move. - CLEARER UNDO. Undo now tells you right under your finger why it can't act (deck locked, nothing to undo, out of Season budget), and the button dims when it isn't available. No ads. No in-app purchases. One purchase, endless Nights.

Sharper nights in the club: - Clearer shop: title tabs, cleaner price tags, and popup fixes - Slimmer touch controls that stay out of the cards' way - More panel and text readability polish across iPhone and iPad No ads. No in-app purchases. One purchase, endless Nights.

Sharper nights on every screen: - Crisper, more readable text on iPhone and iPad with a new pixel typeface - Cleaner shop with easier-to-scan price tags - Layout polish so nothing overlaps on smaller screens No ads. No in-app purchases. One purchase, endless Nights.
