A nivce variety of games. One very annoying bug: in Free Cell I will ocasionally click on a stack of cards and the message “pile of cards” comes up, freezes everything for maybe 5-10 seconds, then I can resume play. I haven’t figured out how to make it go away once it comes up, and I have tried many things to try to prevent fit from popping up—clicking on different positions, clikcing faster, slower, etc. I have noticed that I can go for quite some time without it then it seems to build up over a few days, I will have it on at least 25% of my clicks for a day or two, then it slowly declines. If you are justplaying to play it is only minorly annoying. If you areplaying for speed it will trash your times.

I have tried several solitaires and after playing it for a long while, this one is by far my favorite. It offers so many types of solitaires and includes a demo play of each one, so when trying a new one, I can skip reading the instructions and just watch the demo for a minute.It has a bar on the left with icons of all the game commands-very handy rather then searching for them in menus. Commands include for when you dont want to use too much brain power : “available moves” unlimited “undos” “redos" and “collect all” (which I use to send the cards automatically to the foundation piles after I have solved the solitaire). It even has a “set bookmark” to return to a specific time in the solitaire if I want to explore several ways of solving.The layout is uncluttered with big cards making it easy on the eyes and brain. Very well thought out.

This latest update removed the name of the game you are playing at the top of the screen. It used to say Well or Tri-Peaks so you know what you are playing. Now it always says 250 Solitaire. Also, the update a year ago removed the default of yes when asking a question. It was great that you could just hit enter when it asks if you want to redeal, now you have to click yes then hit enter.

The update is terrible. It took away the full selection of games to play. It replaced my list of favorites with ones I don't like playing and are definitely not my favorites. There is no longer a way to select any other game other than the 9 listed in the "Favorites" making the title of 250 Solitaire games inapplicable to the app. There are no longer any options for selecting whether sounds are on or off and the new music noise is very annoying. I wonder why this app was deliberatley destroyed. There are several others who have expressed their unhappiness with the new version and there is no response from the developer that they will fix the problems or restore the old version. It WAS a terrific solitaire app. I am trashing it and finding a different one, which is sad because this one was the best.
