## What is Crescent Solitaire Classic?

Crescent Solitaire Classic - relax with something original! Created for those who enjoy a challenge, its intuitive design and simple controls make it a joy to play.

Using two decks of 104 cards, this card game is an original, hard brain teaser similar in difficulty to Forty Thieves Solitaire or Spider Solitaire. It tests your skills and occasionally your patience, but that makes it even more rewarding! To win a round, clear the table of all the cards by placing them in sequence on the foundations. Move the cards between the columns of the crescent, or shuffle them when you are stuck. 

Multiple features are included to aide you along the way. There’s a handy hint system to give you a helpful nudge in the right direction. The unlimited undo will let you have a chance at fixing your mistakes. There’s also a concise tutorial for those new to the game.

We’ve included multiple score bonuses to help you collect those all-important points and our score builder mode rewards dedicated players.

Features:
* A hard game for players who want to enjoy something unique.
* Multiple ways to score working in tandem with our Score Build mode similar to our other card games - e.g. Magic Towers and Pyramid Solitaire Ancient Egypt.
* Beautiful animations with a hint of glamor on green velvet.
* Intuitive controls and smooth card play.
* A universal app designed for both mobile phones and tablet devices

We hope you’ll agree that this rarity of a card game is the best version of Crescent Solitaire on the app store.

### 5/5 — Great Game

*2023-11-09*

This game really makes solitare fun. Challenging enough but not impossible to beat.

### 5/5 — Punteggi

*2022-05-31, version 1.0.15*

Premesso che il gioco mi piace moltissimo, mi piacerebbe sapere come vengono calcolati i punteggi. Più di una volta mi è capitato di finire il gioco in modo brillante e avere un punteggio basso, mentre il mio record, quasi 800.000 punti!, se ricordo bene non l’ho nemmeno completato. Nell’illustrazione del gioco parlate di punteggi extra, ma non ho ancora individuato la logica.
Sarebbe opportuna una risposta a questa domanda, anche perché, personalmente, vorrei un punteggio basato solo su come ho giocato la partita, invece che regali random, che non mi dicono niente…

### 4/5 — A great game and addictive

*2021-08-14*

I love this game. I play it every night. It will be more interested if you put a level of challenge... like in every level it get harder to solve it.... 

Thanks

### 5/5 — Trop d’annonces.

*2020-12-04*

Beaucoup trop d’annonces.

### 3/5 — Question: why does it say my score build mode is inactive?

*2020-09-26*

My options say that my score build mode is active, yet it is not working, as you can see from my most recent total game scores. I was becoming rather discouraged as I had a series of low scoring games, and then this was compounded by the game not recognizing that the Score Build Mode was checked as active, even though the programming did not recognize it as such.
Please mend my broken heart!

**Developer response:** Hi there, we had our team check and it seems that Score Build Mode is working correctly, so we believe that there may be a misunderstanding as to how it works. To properly activate it, you have to both have it checked off in the Options menu and then fill your high score board up with ten scores. Score Build Mode works by carrying over points from a game that did not reach enough points to make it into your top ten. Once you get a score that is high enough to offset one of your top ten, then the score resets to zero and the process begins all over again. Hopefully this explanation helps! If you need further assistance, we can be reached directly at crescentsolitaireclassic@glowingeyegames.com.
