I can make it better in my sleep ### 3/5 — Great but poor UI *2025-06-01, version 2.6.1* A really great board game but a lacklustre conversion to digital. It’s a very tight and difficult deckbuilder of sorts. A real challenge and addicting in that sense. Trying to learn the best choices and beat the game. However the implementation here is very rough. There is lots about the UI that is unintuitive. For instance even just the symbols in the pause menu are easily mistaken for you to accidentally end a run instead of returning to your game. There isn’t even a single save game slot. You cannot save mid run. This is really annoying, though runs are that long, maybe 15-20 minutes. And for a high score chaser, there isn’t even a local log of your say top 10 best runs. There are high score lists for global (ie online versus everyone else), but if you want to see your last runs, nope. This is a high score chasing game and this lack of high score record is just terrible. That said, the board game itself is actually fantastic if you’re into deckbuilders and a tight puzzle kind of game. That’s what pulls this through. I’ve still enjoyed playing it, it’s just it can be frustrating and leaves a lot to be desired about the quality. ### 5/5 — Great Adaptation *2024-09-26, version 2.6* Best way to learn this terrific solitaire game. Polished look and feel. Seamless version of the physical game. ### 5/5 — Very good adaptation. *2024-09-13, version 2.6* Very good adaptation. For me, its better to play the game on my cellphone anywhere. ### 5/5 — 簡単にプレイできます *2024-08-31* ボードゲームの方も持っていますが、iOS版の方が手軽にプレイできて良いです。日本語には対応していませんが、英語も難しものではないので、すぐにわかると思います。また、ボードゲームの方を持っていて、プレイしたことがあれば、すぐにでもプレイできます。 ### 5/5 — Great game but all my past data is gone! *2024-08-20, version 2.6* I updated the game and all achievements and high scores are gone! ### 5/5 — 面白いよ *2024-08-15* 人間が強くなるにはどうしたら良いのか、よく分かるゲーム。 ### 3/5 — Not thematic, but the system is fun *2024-08-14, version 2.5* Pasted on theme makes this purely a math game. Very unthematic but simple enough to be adequately fun ### 4/5 — Ottimo gioco *2024-07-12, version 2.5* Peccato che manca la lingua italiana ### 5/5 — Strategical and entertaining solitary game *2024-06-04* Strategical and entertaining solitary game ### 5/5 — Awesome Solo Game *2024-05-28, version 2.5* I love the physical version of this game. But, the app is a wonderful,convenient digital implementation. ### 5/5 — Friday (viernes) en tu movil *2024-05-12, version 2.5* Es una app fundamental si te gustan los juegos en solitario. Si te gusta el juego de mesa, esta implementación para movil es maravillosa. ### 4/5 — Basically same as boardgame *2024-04-25, version 2.5* The achievement not working, others are good ### 5/5 — Great Game *2024-03-11, version 2.5* Still enjoying the game after dozens plays ### 5/5 — Great *2024-03-03, version 2.5* One of the best game you can find... ### 5/5 — Great app based on a great solo card game. *2024-02-23, version 2.5* Have a physical copy of this game as well. The app is a good implementation that is true to the original. Have played this hundreds of times, and still find it challenging and fun. “ Finished” from the same game designer is also excellent. Both take a lot of plays to get to a point where you win on a regular basis. Finished is probably a bit harder to get good at. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work on iPhone 12 *2025-11-25, version 2.6.2* After installation it asks you to input name. After you click ok it sends half the screen off the phone and does nothing. ### 1/5 — No hay tutorial ni se explica *2025-03-30, version 2.6.1* Yo no tengo el juego de mesa y no entiendo cómo se juega. Las pocas explicaciones que te da el juego no son suficientes para saber jugar ### 1/5 — Marre ! *2024-12-27* Bonjour’ Rien n’indique dans la description du jeu qu’il est incompatible avec la version OS 12, pourtant après l’achat, impossible de le lancer ! J’ai vérifié les mises à jour. Fait un arrêt / relance, vers qui dois je me tourner pour être remboursé ? ### 1/5 — 5 estrellas cuando este traducido *2023-01-15, version 2.5* Imperdonable la falta de traduccion ### 1/5 — Español *2022-11-27, version 2.5* Las 5 estrellas para cuando lo pongan en español ### 1/5 — No in game tutorial *2022-08-15, version 2.4.0* Hope you know how to play Friday because there’s no in game tutorial. The rule book is there but there’s no way to read the rules/how to play while actually playing the game. ### 1/5 — Kein Tutorial und nicht selbsterklärend gestaltet *2021-08-30* Es fällt mir schwer den Spielzug in der App abzuschließen. Kein Tutorial zum Erlernen und verbessern dabei, schade… ### 1/5 — Nice game, awful usability *2021-02-27, version 2.4.0* Bad user experience, no tutorial, bad help during play... ### 1/5 — No idea how it works *2019-11-25* Spent 15 minutes trying to figure out how to play including reading the instructions, but all I could do was draw cards until there were none left, or destroy cards and die. nothing else happens. Either it’s broken or it really needs a live tutorial. ### 1/5 — Kann dem Spiel nichts abgewinnen! ☹️ *2019-08-09* Wieso das Spiel hier so gut bewertet wird, erschließt sich mir nicht. Karten zu ziehen, um zu sehen, ob man den vorgebenden Wert bekommt oder nicht, erfüllt nicht gerade das, was ich von einem tollen Spiel oder einer tollen Spielidee erwarten würde. Ich glaube, das es in meinem Ranking der unnötigsten Geldausgaben einen Top- Platz belegt. Sehr schade, weil ich meine, dass auch Kartenspiele durchaus einen gewissen Reiz haben können. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Awesome Solo Game *2026-04-15, version 2.6.3* I love the physical version of this game. But, the app is a wonderful,convenient digital implementation. ### 5/5 — Great toilet game *2026-02-26, version 2.6.3* Need a few minutes to yourself while blessing the bowl with a sizable deposit? Look no further than Friday. Endlessly playable and can pick it up anywhere. (Especially on the throne). It’s up there with solitaire for me for games that I’m happy exist and can get a round in when I have a moment. Excellence in solo play and the app is a no brainer. Love ### 5/5 — Friday *2025-08-11, version 2.6.1* Excellent game but very difficult to defeat. I have got the original card game and the digital version. Both very good. ### 5/5 — 超オススメの作品 *2025-05-18* あのロビンソン漂流記がスマホでプレイできてしまうことに感動！ 英語のみだけどネットで検索すれば日本語解説も沢山あるので問題あるなし。 一つだけ残念な点を挙げるとしたら、一手戻す機能がないので誤タップに注意。 ### 5/5 — Gran solitario *2024-11-29, version 2.6.1* Fiel al juego de mesa. Deck building escalable con varios niveles de dificultad ### 5/5 — 讚 *2024-11-27, version 2.6.1* 很棒的遊戲 ### 5/5 — Muy muy entretenido *2024-11-25, version 2.6.1* Genial para los ratos de descanso. Además la partida se queda guardada si lo dejas a medias y puedes retomarla más tarde. Un gran juego y una adaptación muy buena a móvil. Muy recomendada. ### 5/5 — Best solo game *2024-10-25, version 2.6* Amazing thematic solo game. ### 5/5 — Great game *2024-10-10, version 2.6* Such a well designed game and the app works great. ### 5/5 — Not just Friday *2024-09-27, version 2.6* This is an amazing game and a well-designed app that perfectly recreates the card play. Ingenious, challenging and rewarding. Certainly one of the very best solitaire games! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
