### 4/5 — Something not quite working

*2022-12-06, version 1.9.1*

Have loved this for years but the cards are either a tiny bit sluggish or skip - can’t seem to get the smoothness it had and have to concentrate to tap just right.

### 3/5 — New update needs work

*2022-11-24, version 1.9*

Menu bar at the top has a bar that needs to be removed. Bottom menu stays instead of disappearing. iPad.

### 5/5 — Addicted! Best of best

*2019-10-17, version 1.8*

Addicting this game is great you’ll LOVE IT

### 5/5 — Getting hung up

*2019-10-17, version 1.8*

Update to review below. Ever since I gave this a mediocre review (because of freezes), it now works perfectly! Was someone listening???

Worked great for quite awhile, but now tends to get hung up. No improvement noticed with removing other software, clearing cache, playing on another device, etc. Can still play okay but takes a bit more patience to get it started. Once the new game starts it plays w/o sticking, thus 3 stars.

### 5/5 — Mom

*2019-10-07, version 1.8*

Great game

### 5/5 — Fun to play

*2019-08-03, version 1.8*

Keeps my mind active in a fun way! Part of my daily routine.

### 5/5 — Solitare

*2019-08-01, version 1.8*

Good game

### 5/5 — Longtime Eric fan

*2019-07-21, version 1.8*

I’ve been an Eric’s Solitare practically since the beginning (1997?ish) and loved playing so that every game was solvable.  Miss that.  Otherwise love the game, easy to see, feels like I’m playing with real cards.

### 5/5 — Great pastime

*2019-07-19, version 1.8*

I really enjoy the games and play every day - many times during the day.  I always enjoyed solitaire but to have the app right there any time - like a good friend - even though I lose a lot.  Thanks

### 5/5 — Great

*2019-02-02, version 1.8*

I’ve had this for a long time! I just transferred it to my iPad. I have tried others, but they are not this good!

### 5/5 — Review

*2018-12-26, version 1.8*

I really ❤️ this game. 😁👌

### 5/5 — AWESOME

*2018-11-18, version 1.8*

Best solitaire ever

### 4/5 — The best!!

*2018-08-10, version 1.8*

Clearly the best solitaire game in the App Store bar none! Had to leave one star off for not optimized for iPhone X screen.

### 5/5 — Klondike 3 card

*2018-07-23, version 1.8*

Hard but rewarding when you get it done.

### 1/5 — UPDATE: Crashes after ios16 update

*2022-09-24, version 1.8*

Formerly the best solitaire app in iTunes but now crashes in ios16. Looking forward to an update, so I can get back to enjoying it. 

Hi! Real simple: I have more than a dozen solitaire apps, and this is the one I play. It's the best one I've found. Buy it. EDIT: Still love this app, but since the IOS 11 update the game freezes frequently, often when it’s first opened. I’m sure this is just some new OS hiccups. The game doesn’t crash, but it is annoying.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2019-12-05, version 1.8*

Crashes constantly, piece of junk.

### 1/5 — Actually not bad

*2019-09-30, version 1.8*

but i hate the rate me box popping up all the time with no way to stop it. don’t know if that’s their choice or apples system. don’t care

### 1/5 — Clunky, erratic, prone to freezing

*2018-02-25, version 1.8*

Eric’s games USED to be the best. He quit caring about a year ago. Concerns are ignored immediately. After sharing my concerns about poor play on two different iPhones several times with no improvement I finally deleted and found another app.

### 1/5 — Missing listed features

*2011-12-31, version 1.4*

I bought this app because the description said it had a 3 card deal option and alternate versions of the game. None of this in the game settings

### 1/5 — Aabcdefg

*2011-12-18, version 1.4*

The cards growing when selected is very painful.  Real waste of money for me.

### 2/5 — Ads kill this app

*2021-09-05, version 1.8*

I absolutely love this game, but I am so tired of playing with an ad after every deal. I would give it five stars if it didn’t have all these ads.

### 2/5 — Long Ads

*2021-06-11, version 1.8*

I’d be more open to a direct solicitation for well deserved payment with a quick anonymous link than to suffer thru these uninteresting and distracting ads.

### 2/5 — Used to be great. Now it is sluggish and jumpy.

*2018-12-06, version 1.8*

This Solitaire app used to be fantastic, but current versions are very sluggish and jumpy. Frequent pauses while moving cards make it unpleasant to play. I am currently using version 1.8 on an iPhone 8.

### 2/5 — Too slow

*2017-12-17, version 1.8*

There’s animation use to place cards is more a meditative pace. No one would call it snappy.

### 5/5 — Great

*2022-11-22, version 1.8*

Enjoy

### 5/5 — Great game

*2022-09-22, version 1.8*

Works well, always fun.

### 5/5 — Eric's Solitaire

*2021-12-04, version 1.8*

Great version of classic game. Diane K

### 5/5 — Great classic solitaire

*2021-08-15, version 1.8*

This app is well designed, and I appreciate the fair price and no ads. It also uses almost no battery. Most if the solitaire apps out there are gimmicky. This one is a classic that plays well. I like the various modes too. Thank you for a good game and for pricing it right.

### 5/5 — My Favorite !

*2021-02-06, version 1.8*

Love this game !

### 5/5 — IOS 14.2 killed this game

*2020-11-28, version 1.8*

So I uninstalled and reinstalled. Now it works. Love the game play. Wish you had Christmas holiday themes.

### 5/5 — Last iOS update

*2020-11-24, version 1.8*

App crashes and won’t start after last iOS update 14.2. Reboot still won’t work.  :( sad because it’s the only game I like to play.

I did what you suggested uninstalling and reinstalling fixed the issue.

Thanks

### 5/5 — It’s Working Again

*2020-11-24, version 1.8*

The app stopped working with the update to iOS 14.2. Had to delete and reinstall the app and it’s working great. Unfortunately, I lost all my progress in the stats, but it’s okay because I can finally play it again.

### 5/5 — Old time computer player

*2020-05-30, version 1.8*

I wish you still had a choice for “always winnable”

### 5/5 — Love this!

*2020-05-04, version 1.8*

Been playing this game since it came free on all new Macs. Thanks, Eric!!!!
