No, screw you.
I’ve had this game for a long time, a few years on a few different devices, and never before have I ever just quit a game due to the sheer obnoxiousness of an ad. It’s a grey bar with a single blinking Mail icon in the center, and if you click it, it takes you to a ridiculous “Congratulations, you’re a winner!” pages. Are you serious? You sold ad space to a pop-up scam? And if you don’t click the ad, the player is forced to see it blinking furiously in the most aggravatingly distraction way possible? This is what you’ve become? Your whole business model is you annoy us or you try to screw us with a scam? No. You wanna screw us? To hell with that. Screw you.
*Edit - So you made an app, and you can’t even regulate what ads you play? Pathetic. I’d give you another chance, if I felt for one second that you were being sincere. Thankfully, I deleted the app right before I left my review. Have fun with your business model of aggravating people until they delete your app as well.Show lessEinherjar 1775
Developer Response
Dear Einherjar1775, sorry to hear the problem you've faced. Our team is investigating this advertisement. The banner ad you've seen is not specifically placed by our team. We track this type of scam advertisements and block them. Thanks for your feedback!Endless adds
I rather pay for the game then get this toxic onslaught of adds every time you start a new game there are two adds you have to exit out of and most of the time the exit doesn’t even work it just redirects you to the App Store then there are three different banners while you are playing the game, which is annoying and finally you have another add that pops up when you get through the full screen adds just before you start the new round. And forget it if you are trying to listen to music while playing this game every time you start a new game your music will stop and you will have to go and reset it. In addition to this if you have music going and then open the app it stops your music. Honestly there are hundreds of solitaire apps in this store I do not recommend anyone uses this one.Show lessThe thinker 96
Hints Are Useless
I do like this game & I don't think there are too many ads. I play 3 card draw and I find it challenging but not impossible to win. However, when I've reached a point in the game where I feel it's not win-able I'd like to be able to get confirmation that there are no more moves. If I use a hint, the game will always send me to the deck if there are still cards there, even if none of them can be used. I don't know if I just don't understand the hints correctly or what but I'm quite sure that I've gotten to the point where there are no more useful moves and the hint seems to indicate that I should keep flipping cards.
I'd also like to be able to listen to my own music while playing but the ads get in the way of that. Like I said, I don't mind the ads, I even opt to watch the extra ads to earn hints & reshuffles even though I rarely use those options (I've accumulated over 2000 of each) but I'd like to hear my own music while the ads run.Show lessdiac1
Looking for more backgrounds, EG: Pride :)
Hi! Love the app, have picked it up quite a few times over the years and have had a blast each go. This year I had a deal pop up for the subscription and it was 1000% worth it, in my opinion. That’s caused me to play even more! But I have one qualm now.
For an app that prides itself on having been around for over 20 years and having the most downloads, I was shocked to discover there’s no background for Pride month! I know this isn’t a major request, nor something many Straight fans would care to see (and yes, they’ll probably be outraged and upset for no reason as it wouldn’t affect them in any way, but that’s just how Straight, non-ally folks respond to rainbow content in June-only June). But as a queer player, it’s nice to see support from the companies that I spent countless hours supporting and recommending to friends. I’m aware I can upload a background myself. But that’s not the same as something from the developer themselves. I mean, the background for June’s monthly challenges is a soccer field... A rose background was introduced around Valentine’s Day. A small gesture would go a long way. It doesn’t even have to be extravagant! Just a suggestion, that hopefully doesn’t fall on deaf ears. And if so, I’d rather not have to take my business elsewhere, but alas! It’s nice to be supported and recognized just as much as the rest of the world, the rest of the holidays. Thanks! :)Show lessFelweed
Get rid of Progressive ad
I have been using this app for a long time. I was great. I don’t have a problem with the banner ads (it’s a free game and ads are inevitable), but this Progressive ad has to go.
Unlike banner ads, this Progressive ad is actually on the cards and changes the appearance of the whole app.
This is really annoying and can easily be substituted with a video ad in between rounds or a banner ad.
The Progressive ad is unnecessary considering there are also banner ads playing as well.
Not only is it unnecessarily annoying, it is a stupid ad - have a picture of Flo and a sign saying Progressive is a terrible ad. It doesn’t tell you anything about the product, there is no link to the Progressive website, and no information to hook the customer.
All this is compounded by the way the ad changes the appearance of the game in a negative way that actually turns the consumer off of both Progressive and the app.
**A banner ad or video ad for Progressive would be a much better substitute** because it would actually deliver information relevant to the consumers, it could have a link to the Progressive website (allowing you to actually generate business), and most importantly it delivers this information in a manner that does not effect the playability of the app or effect the appearance.
Please change this. It harms both the playability of the app and Progressive.Show lessLeSean Frogger
Latest updates are bad
This used to be a very fun game that I really enjoyed. About a month ago it was re-designed with new buttons across the bottom for shuffle, hints, undo and settings. I always play this game with my iPad in landscape mode and now as I built columns of cards, the lower cards in the columns became hidden beneath the ribbon of buttons on the bottom. This forces you to switch to portrait mode to continue. There was a fixed released a few weeks ago and now in landscape mode the cards are so small that they only take up about a quarter of the screen and it is extremely annoying.
Like other reviews, this used to be a five star app for me. I hope it gets fixed soon.Show lessBJM543
Slowing becoming a billboard that seconds as a game.
When I first downloaded this was a good game. Even though some parts of the game don’t respond well when you’re trying to finish the game quickly. I can forgive all that but the ads just kept growing and growing. In the beginning, you only got an ad every other game or so. Now every single time in between games there is an ad. When you click to start a new game there’s an ad. And now even while you’re playing the game there’s an ad! What’s next? Will there be an ad on each card? I recommend completely skipping this app because it is quickly becoming a billboard of a game. Go download the Microsoft solitaire. You get 6 games in one and the only time you get ads are when you want a wild card. Other than that no ads and it’s free.Show lessBuckturboM3
Changes
The version now doesn’t keep track of your time, scores or number of moves made. When it did it gave you the incentive to try for your best in these categories. You could reset your stats whenever you wanted to try and better your game.
Without these features your just playing and you can do that with any solitaire game. It shows that you’re a winner which you already know.
Also, the commercials between games are longer so I just clear my screen to get another game without watching and rewatching the same ones over and over. They were approximately 15 seconds and now they are closer to one minute.
They’ve added 2 additional replacement shuffles but, again you have to watch another commercial so it’s easier to clear screen and start over.
I enjoy playing solitaire but this new version has me trying to find a different format.
Very disappointed with new version!!Show lesslitltx
Glitchy and slow
I don’t know what happened or why things changed, but the app has gone down hill in the last few weeks. It is soooo slow and glitchy. It is not as responsive when I click on the deck for a new card or to drag a card to a new spot. It lags and takes an extra 10 seconds. This has sapped so much of the relaxing fun out of the app for me.
I love this app when I started playing on a long cross country flight with no shows/good books downloaded. I quickly became a little obsessed with it and it successfully helped me quit my Twitter habit :) Instead if scrolling Twitter before bed or sitting in carline, I would play a few games of solitaire. Sadly with the latest update and horrible lag time/glitches, I find the whole thing more annoying than relaxing. It is so frustrating. Please look into why this happens and try to fix the bugs. I also hate the new menu at the bottom with hints and shuffle buttons. Super annoying and unnecessary.
Two months ago I’d have given this 5 stars, but no longer. Please fix it!Show lessjomomma8
I don’t love the newest app update
I play like three games every night before bed. It’s my way of winding down. But now, instead of just running short, minor ads in between games, there is also a banner that runs at the top while you play. Sometimes they’re animated and distracting. I wish it only had the ads in between games. I really dont like the banner, but I get it if you guys need the money.
Also There is now a shuffle/hint option at the bottom of the screen. These are cool features, but I wish there was a way to hide that bottom bar while I play the game (kind of like the how you make the toolbar hide, when not in use, on Macs or Windows). I find the bubbles on the “hints” and “shuffles” remaining to also be distracting. That’s a symptom of living in this modern era of push notifications. I hate those bubbles with numbers in them and I’m the sort of person to clear them as soon as they present.
Earlier update was a solid 5 stars. These updates make me give it a 4 now.Show lessMelaniekorourke
