### 4/5 — Dr. Brooks

*2024-10-05, version 3.4.2*

Good solitaire

### 5/5 — Just solitaire

*2016-12-19, version 3.1.6*

Very enjoyable

### 5/5 — Simple and fun

*2016-08-14, version 3.1.6*

Simple and fun. Ads aren't bad

### 5/5 — Mr

*2016-07-27, version 3.1.6*

Great game, not easy

### 5/5 — Even better

*2016-02-28, version 3.1.6*

The individual version is much better than the one in the big package. Bigger playing field. Experiment to find style and looseness to fit screen, not just size of cards. Ads rudely interrupt play.

### 5/5 — Great game

Lots of fun for me

### 5/5 — Addictive

*2015-08-27, version 3.1.3*

I've played regular solitaire for years and now it seems totally boring compared to this game..keeps me thinking, keeps me challenged.  I absolutely love it!

But I like challenging games so this is perfect for me, definitely not boring I get stuck a lot

### 4/5 — Challenging

great when I DO win!

### 1/5 — unwinnable games?

*2024-02-27*

i’ve played almost 100 games and only one two or three. one game i played instantly ended in a “no moves remaining”. is there not a guard to ensure these games are at least somewhat winnable? doesn’t seem fair

**Developer response:** This game is a true simulation of playing a real game of Russian Solitaire with decks of cards. The cards are shuffled and dealt as they would be in real life. Russian Solitaire is a challenging game, no doubt. That is one of the reasons to play it rather than other easier solitaire games.

### 1/5 — What’s happened?

*2018-07-01, version 3.3.0*

This was a really good card game until the last update. Before, you could move a king around to the spare spaces or unturned cards which gave an extra level of opportunity, but now they’ve removed that facility it is impossible to get far at all. It a shame as I really enjoyed it.

### 1/5 — What the F¥€£

*2018-06-23, version 3.2.0*

I know when I have no moves left, duh.  What I don't know is why after the latest update I cant move the kings...

### 1/5 — I had high hopes

*2011-06-25, version 1.0*

I used to play this game on my Palm. The top menu does not display, so I cannot start a new game or see the score, etc.

### 1/5 — Does not work on iPad!

*2011-03-17, version 1.0*

This game works beautifully on my iTouch and I love playing it!  However, when I loaded it onto my iPad, it doesn't work AT ALL!!!  When I click on the icon, the game tries to open, then within two seconds, closes itself.  The other "Just Solitaire" games work very well on both the iTouch and iPad.  Please fix the Russian Solitaire game so it works, too!

### 2/5 — Ad Mania

*2016-08-12, version 3.1.6*

Ads are way too invasive.

### 2/5 — Bad card spacing

*2012-11-28, version 2.0.1*

After upgrading my iPhone, suddenly the cards cannot be spaced as loosely as before. I find this to be jarring, visually, and difficult to play. It might be enough to drive me to a different solitaire app.

### 3/5 — Too difficult

*2022-08-20, version 3.4.2*

I’ve been playing for years, but the last month or so, I just can’t get past the first 4 or 4 moves. I love a challenge, but this has become way too frustrating. Lighten up a little with some playable hands.

### 3/5 — Love the game, but hate the ads!

*2015-12-14, version 3.1.3*

I love playing Russian Solitaire, but the constant switch to the ads is driving me crazy! I'm looking for an app to purchase without the ads.

### 3/5 — Russian solitaire

*2015-11-17, version 3.1.3*

Very frustrating game , I have played it many times only won three times , quite addictive fun game.

### 5/5 — My favorite solitaire

*2025-10-08, version 3.4.2*

Love the challenge. No/very few ads. I’ve played this game for several years. It’s a keeper.

### 5/5 — Fun challenging game

*2024-11-07, version 3.4.2*

I play this game everyday. It’s challenging, fast & fun!

### 5/5 — unwinnable games?

*2024-03-05, version 3.4.2*

they don’t say it in the app but some games are unwinnable. but there are zero ads and zero fluff and filler just open the app and play the game. 5 stars for that, it’s a rare thing nowadays

### 5/5 — Wow

*2020-12-07, version 3.4.2*

Been playing for years, but I bought a new phone and the ad banner was covering the cards. I contacted the developer and I never figured I’d get a response. Got one immediately. I emailed screenshots and they quickly figured out it was because I’m lazy and hadn’t updated the app in forever. 

It’s a solitaire app... I never expected such a great level of support. I don’t write reviews, but I felt compelled to write this one. 

Excellent customer service!

### 5/5 — Very good game

*2020-08-28, version 3.4.2*

I’ve been playing the game on this App for a long time.   Always fun and challenging.

### 5/5 — Game now spoilt

*2019-03-20, version 3.3.3*

I used to really enjoy this game but now a message comes up telling the player when there are no moves remaining which spoils it for me completely as I used to enjoy the challenge of studying the card positions to see if there were any more moves available. Now I know that if the message does not appear there are possibilities so I look and can soon find them or see the message and go to new deal immediately. No fun any more.

### 5/5 — Ruined/ then fixed

*2018-06-29, version 3.3.0*

Kings only move to empty rows now?

We'll, the option to not follow the rules of Russian Solitaire and once again move kings onto face down cards has been added to the menu. 5 stars. Don't need all that clever teenage snark in your response if you're going to fix the problem huh?

### 5/5 — Addictive game

*2018-06-22, version 3.2.0*

Love this one. Very challenging and frustrating but excellent game.

### 5/5 — Jc

*2017-12-28, version 3.1.7*

Love this game and 40 thieves by same developer. Never gets boring

### 5/5 — Great game

*2017-02-02, version 3.1.6*

Exactly what it says it is. No more, no less. Not sure why people are complaining about ads, I've only seen a few.
