## What is FreeCell?

Play FreeCell. Options provided to change background pictures, change card appearance, have cards fly up to the suit stacks on their own or manually. Instructions included in the app. Ads appear unobtrusively on the top of the screen but don't interfere with gameplay.

GOAL: Uncover cards so they can be moved in ascending order to the 4 suit stacks.

SETUP: A standard deck is dealt in 8 cascading stacks.

HOW TO PLAY: Move cards between the 8 cascading stacks and 4 free cells to uncover cards so you can move them up to complete the suit stacks. You can only move the top card of a cascading stack or a card in a free cell. A card can be moved to an empty free cell; to the top of another cascading stack with top card of different color and one higher value; or to one of 4 suit stacks in ascending order from Ace to King. For example, 3 of clubs can be moved to a cascading stack with top card 4 of hearts. Any value card can be moved to an empty free cell or empty cascading stack.

MOVING CARDS: Tapping a card once will move it to a suit stack if a spot is available or to a pile with available higher card of different color. Double-tapping a card will move it to an open free cell. Alternatively, you can simply drag a card to where you want it to go. If an attempted move is not allowed, the card will shake.

NOTES: You can reject a new hand that looks too difficult by clicking New Game again. If you click New Game before moving any cards, the game will not count as a loss. Click Undo to undo one move at a time, or Start Over to undo all moves in the current game.

### 3/5 — I like the concept but game lacks accessibility

*2025-01-09, version 9.7.3*

I am a blind VoiceOver user. I really like the concept of the game. My problems come when I try to move cards, either to a new or continuing stack. I can double tap the card and then a sound plays. However, when I find a place to put the card, I have tried performing a double tap once and twice, or moving the card manually either to a free cell or to continue the stacks at the top. Though when I perform the 1-finger double tap and hold gestre to move a card manually, I am not getting any feedback regarding the columns and rows I am moving across. For instance, when starting the move from column 1 row 2, with the goal of going to column 2 row 1, I do not get any feedback about where the cursor is or what card suit and number I am moving across. I have tried moving cards with and without VoiceOver with no luck. I am glad that other VoiceOver users were able to play the game successfully, but I’m having lots of trouble. I will keep it to hopefully have a fix soon. This sounds like just my type of card/challenging game.

### 1/5 — Poor Support

*2020-12-07, version 9.1.0*

This was pretty good for awhile. They have introduced a bug, or people have figured out how to take advantage of and old bug. Where people who are competing to be the fastest are surpassed by people with negative or unreadable times. This has been reported repeatedly but Dogfish just ignores. Their Hearts games is so bad i unloaded it. Try a different game. They refuse to fix bugs which have now been outstanding for months.

### 5/5 — Free cell

*2016-06-12, version 3.1.2*

Enjoy the game very much. Thanks for voiceover feature. Elvia t
