### 4/5 — A better mousetrap

*2022-03-01*

The way to riches is to make a better mousetrap. Since mice will be with us for the foreseeable future, what is needed is a way to better control them. This is what has been done with this old game that is still engaging. Make it faster, more attractive and yet still the engaging challenge it has always been. Their dominoe game is just as true to this formula. Bravo!!!!

### 5/5 — 2022 Smart updates!

*2022-02-17, version 1.7.2*

Nice improvements!  A few recent updates make this Free Cell even more user friendly. It’s my only go-to game!!

### 4/5 — Best FreeCell BEST

*2022-02-16, version 1.7.2*

Now faster than before at dealing a new game than earlier versions. The new graphics are a bit nicer too. I’ve been using the paid version for years. Even gladly paid for the iOS and Android versions! Play is smooth and intuitive. If I could replay a completed game when I think I can improve my score, presto! five stars.  

 Other reviewers have asked for numbered games. That would be nice. 

 And I saw a review asking that the auto play move a card to the in play cards, not up to the completed stack. Often that card is better used in play.

### 5/5 — Free Cell

*2022-02-16, version 1.7.2*

Hours of entertainment.

### 5/5 — No ads

*2022-02-15, version 1.7.2*

Love to play no interruptions

### 5/5 — FreeCell

*2022-02-14, version 1.7.2*

Love this game feel like I have more control over winning or losing, not the typical solitaire.

### 5/5 — Great adaptation

*2022-02-12, version 1.7.2*

A very good adaptation of a classic game. No notes.

### 5/5 — FAVORITE

*2022-02-11, version 1.7.2*

I begin my day with this game (and prayer) …it is good for my 80 year old brain!

### 5/5 — Free cell

*2022-01-28*

Great game makes your brain have to work
I play it all the time and at 80 my brain is still working pretty well give it a try and you will enjoy the challenge

### 5/5 — I think my family is planning an intervention lol

*2021-08-13*

This is my game. I can win all but a very few of the games. Although I’m not rapier sharp in the whit department anymore (more like a yard sale butter knife) I enjoy solving the puzzles.

### 5/5 — FreeCell

*2021-06-10*

Have been playing free version for a long time but HATED waiting for ad’s to start new game. So glad to have discovered this with no ads. Well worth the small fee to eliminate the frustration.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2021-06-03, version 1.6.12*

Beautifully made and fun to play.

### 5/5 — Its ridiculous

*2021-04-01, version 1.6.12*

I had downloaded FreeCell and Blackjack from this team.

But Blackjack is annoying in the fact it just has VALUE 

Rubbish

### 5/5 — Best FreeCell app by far

*2021-02-12*

This review is for the paid version. After giving the free version a one star rating for all the ridiculous ads, the developer contacted me and let me know about this paid version. Now I’m happy again.

### 1/5 — Free Cell

*2021-11-30, version 1.6.12*

Free cell used to be a fun game that you could win about half the time. Then they messed around with it. Now it is almost impossible to win. No-one will play it because you want to be able to beat the game at least SOME of the time. How very sad. What a waste.

### 1/5 — Free cell

*2021-01-18*

I have just deleted all my Branium games (5 in all) because I got tired of the frequent, long, almost impossible to close, ads. Users should know these apps are based on very common and readily available games. I found a much better free cell that has NO game interrupting ads, just unobtrusive ads at the bottom of the screen. I can play game after game with no interruptions. Branium should wise up and do something about these very annoying apps.

### 1/5 — Review

*2019-07-03, version 1.6.12*

Dont like your scoring

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2019-04-26, version 1.6.8*

All of the items are black. No cards. Terrible.

### 1/5 — Upgrade - and Lose All of Your Scores

*2017-04-13, version 1.2.8*

This was my favorite game of all time, the only game I never got tired of.

I've been playing it for 3 to 4 years and working hard to improve my scores. 

Then I finally paid to get rid of the ads, only to find out that in doing so I would have to give up all of my scores in the new app - because the way they set it up, the scores are stuck in the free version of the app and can't be transferred over. 

I've contacted the company and was told there is nothing that can be done.

You will have to start over entirely from scratch in the new app, and they cannot refund you, you're stuck.

### 2/5 — Great game-terrible face page

*2024-04-17, version 1.7.17*

Update: 4/17/2024
For the FOURTH TIME, I received your email the first time, months ago. Maybe fix your AI bot or actually READ my message! Others have complained about the same thing and you’re still ignoring the issue. Whatever. It’s not a showstopper. It just shows exactly how much integrity you DON’T have. Your game is great. Your support is terrible. Have a nice day 😊
——————-
Developers still don’t know how to fix the “swipe up to close” feature for iPhones without the ‘old’ close button. It’s still really difficult to close the app with a swipe up gesture. This gesture works perfectly for every other app/game in the app store. What is the issue making it SO hard for these developers to figure it out? I have received all of their email messages and responses to to this, yet STILL, the problem exists. I am not the only one complaining about this flaw. I don’t understand why they won’t fix this! Yes, eventually, the swipe up works but only after many annoying attempts. C’mon guys. This game is awesome, except for this one thing. It’s an easy fix!

### 2/5 — Free cell

*2019-01-17, version 1.6.8*

Why do you continue to make the games harder?  Let the cards fall where they may, just like when playing with actual catds.

### 3/5 — Please change the menu bar

*2023-01-29*

Now that most iPhones require a swipe up from the bottom of the screen to close / switch apps or go to Home Screen, the swipe up menu bar at the bottom gets in the way and is a clunky UI. Everything else about the app is top notch, but it’s time to change the menu bar to work more smoothly with current iPhones.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the review, ed_bob! If you tap the screen to bring up the menu bar and then swipe up from the bottom of the screen, that should let you exit the app easily. 😊

### 3/5 — It’s FreeCell

*2021-03-03, version 1.6.12*

However, it is not worth $4.99. It’s one game, no variety but it costs that much! The games are repetitive and not new. I think I’ve played them all. The manufacturers need to give me a refund or include other games for this price.
Having said that, I love that there are NO ADS

### 5/5 — Two Cents

*2023-12-06*

Just my two cents here to show how much I love and appreciate this app. Every time I feel sad or upset about anything, here I come! I just dive right in and free my mind of all the baloney. The world goes away and I’m back to my normal self. Keep’em coming! FreeCell, I love ❤️ you!

**Developer response:** We appreciate your review and kind words, we're so happy to hear you're enjoying FreeCell+. It sounds like feedback/pop-ups you're getting are achievements you have unlocked, well done! Thank you again for taking the time to share your feedback and for playing our game. :)

### 5/5 — Great Game!!

*2022-10-09, version 1.7.7*

Really challenging and enjoyable!!

### 5/5 — Free Cell

*2022-05-04, version 1.7.5*

Best friend of my brain!

### 5/5 — Great Game

*2022-04-16*

I particularly like this version since I can undo moves and try over from mid-game, rather than start again from the beginning, if I get stuck.

### 5/5 — Old version was useful

*2022-04-15*

In the olden days I could compete with family and friends using a numbered free cell game..  We would start playing at the same time and whoever finished first won.   All we needed was a phone and a free cell number. So fun.

### 5/5 — Mr Mack

*2022-04-11, version 1.7.5*

Blooming great game many thanks for hours of fun and puzzling

### 5/5 — Free cell 👍

*2022-03-15, version 1.7.3*

My favorite game ever. Been playing it probably for over 20 years.

### 5/5 — Great Game

*2022-03-15, version 1.7.3*

Very well done!

### 5/5 — Addictive

*2022-03-13, version 1.7.3*

This game is really enjoyable and challenging. The response time great but sometimes have a short lag later in the evening. The layout is good and visually appealing.

### 5/5 — Update!

*2022-02-18*

I’ve played the paid version for several years, and I love it. I find the challenge soothing. Recently, Brainium came up with a wholesale renovation — at no cost. I highly recommend this product.
