Would love to see something added that shows my wins and gave a feeling of accomplishment ### 4/5 — Really good *2020-02-10, version 1.0.7* Challenging! ### 4/5 — Trop difficile *2019-12-30* Trop difficile sans payer ### 5/5 — Stuck on ads way too often *2019-12-02, version 1.0.6* Love your game - but HATE that very frequently the iPad gets stuck on an ad and the only solution is to reboot! Occasional happening would be irritating -once every other or third day is WAY too much! ### 5/5 — Excellent *2019-11-26, version 1.0.6* Great game ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Pyramid solitaire & Forty Thieves *2024-09-08, version 1.0.16* You people go from one extreme to other!!! pyramid solitaire is so boring an easy but forty thieves is impossible????????? You guys make it impossible to make a nickname??? Every word is taken????I assume you don't want feedback ### 1/5 — Don’t buy! *2023-03-15, version 1.0.14* Impossible to solve WITHOUT paying at 99p/time to refresh the pack of cards. If you are very lucky one refresh MIGHT solve the game but you are more likely to pay for two refreshes. This then costs you £2 per game! Very unfair to players but a money spinner for the developer. ### 1/5 — Card Shark *2022-11-07, version 1.0.14* Pay to play. Not fun. Not advised. ### 1/5 — Changed. *2022-02-14, version 1.0.14* Now appears to be impossible to win unless you pay for extra cards ### 1/5 — You have to pay each time you want to refresh the deck. *2020-03-27, version 1.0.7* I thought I was purchasing an upgrade that allowed you to refresh the deck for the whole game. Not so. They charge you for every game. ### 1/5 — Not honest game *2019-11-28, version 1.0.6* Just a couple games repetitive,before start to game,I already knew I could win or lose ### 2/5 — 40 thieves *2025-05-06, version 1.0.17* I like to have right handed and portrait bord ### 2/5 — Caro *2019-07-17, version 1.0.6* Si dovrebbe girare almeno una volta il mazzo senza pagare . ### 2/5 — Abzocke *2019-07-07* Am Ende des Talons kommt die Option diesen für 1,09 Euro erneut freizuschalten. Achtung: Abzocke, da es nur für 1 Spiel freigeschaltet wird. Ansonsten wäre das Spiel gut, aber so über den Tisch gezogen werden grenzt schon an Frechheit. ### 3/5 — Levels *2023-08-17, version 1.0.16* Has ANYONE EVER gotten past level 3? I’ve been playing this game for a long time now and have NEVER gotten past level three. I don’t think it goes higher than that? It gets exponentially harder the higher you go so getting to level 4 is impossible… ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Strictly my opinionI’m *2026-08-31, version 1.0.18* Be totally honest 40 thieves the only game I play of any of them i’m 85 years old and it’s the only game I like because it’s just a simple game I like it. I hope you like it if you don’t, that’s your decision I do like it. ### 5/5 — Great game. *2025-06-24, version 1.0.17* Would like option to repeat the same hand. I have to undo every card to start the hand over. Starting over allows me to select different sequence and maybe win ### 5/5 — Totally addictive !! *2024-11-27, version 1.0.17* Best Solitaire game out there !! When you dream about strategies for the game in your sleep, you know it’s addictive !!! ### 5/5 — No right hand play *2023-08-25, version 1.0.16* I am playing this games for years and am still waiting for the choice to play right handed game. Right now my right hand is blocking my view. ### 5/5 — Left handed game *2023-02-01, version 1.0.14* There is no way to switch to right-handed play. Otherwise the game is fun to play! ### 5/5 — Totally addictive !! *2022-10-30, version 1.0.14* Best Solitaire game out there !! ### 5/5 — Forty Thieves *2022-06-14, version 1.0.14* Love the game because it is more challenging and harder to win. ### 5/5 — Great Game *2022-06-06, version 1.0.14* Love this game but to many ads ### 5/5 — Chalenging *2022-01-04, version 1.0.14* Great game play ### 5/5 — Forty thieves *2021-12-02, version 1.0.14* Great game --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
