Ratings and Reviews
Not User Friendly
You can not just tap the card to make play. When you have played all the cards and you have won, you have to drag EVERY card for you to get the registered win. You have to drag the card; it is to sensitive to dragging and card goes back to original position. IF THE CARD IS NOT PLACED JUST RIGHT; THE GAME LOCKS UP - THIS IS A MAJOR DESIGN FLAW. IT SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN RELEASED WITH THIS FLAW!!! I would like to get my money back!
Overall Good
Another remake of classic Windows built-in solitaire games; and this one is always my favorite. This app presents a clean interface. You may choose "Draw 3 cards" mode to challenge yourself. Overall this is a good game, but I have two suggestions:
a) Sometimes cards automatically go to the foundation piles, while sometimes they do not. I do not know what algorithms are behind those, but I'd suggest that, a double-click shall get the card to there. That will save time from dragging cards to there.
b) the screenshots above are not for this solitaire game. Neither is some part of the description (as of Apr 11, 2014). They are obviously for the freecell game. Please fix the misleading content.
Basic but well implemented
I’ve been looking for a clean, well designed solitaire for OSX for a while, and I think this is it. Worth $2, for sure.
If the developer wanted to take things to the next level, here are possibilities, in order of priority (as I personally feel about it):
* Allow to resize.
* Allow me to hide the timer.
* Allow optional scoring, whether cumulative across games or per a single game—as implemented in other solitaire games.
* Allow interesting designs for the cards, both front and pack.
I also noticed a small glitch where a certain stack of cards in the tableau managed to exceed the length of the window and got clipped at the bottom. Not sure what the best solution is for this.
