## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.4.38 — 2026-09-30

- Win screen: each Top Players row now has a tick box that chooses whether that run is drawn on the chart, and the chart follows the tab you are on.
- If the win screen's results fail to load, the game asks again on its own and offers Retry if it gives up. No placeholder figures.
- Times from an hour up now show hours (2:36:40), and where a time is a median the label says Median.
- Opponents' race progress in Group Play and Arena now reaches you in about half a second.
- Before you play, the game tells you whether your results are being saved.

### 1.4.37 — 2026-09-29

- New to FreeCell? Touch and hold a card to see where it can go. On by default, switch it off in Settings. Not available in Hardcore.
- When a move isn't allowed, the game now tells you why.
- Your first deal labels the parts of the board, and the win screen explains its tabs the first time you see them.
- Group Play and Arena: every round has one winner, the first to finish. Anyone else who clears the board is shown as Finished.
- Opponents' progress in a race updates faster.

### 1.4.35 — 2026-09-24

- Group Play invite links now take you straight into the lobby, asking only for a name if you don't have one.
- The Group Play lobby code is bigger and easier to read on stream, with a 'Join at msogames.com/join' hint.
- Replays skip long idle pauses: you see the first 30 seconds, then playback jumps ahead with a label.
- Fixes styling on older iOS versions.

### 1.4.34 — 2026-09-20

Hardcore links now open the new-game picker with Hardcore already staged.

Win celebrations alternate evenly between the card cascade and the confetti - the Settings checkboxes still decide which ones are in play.

A short one-time question after your first win asks how you found us.

### 1.4.33 — 2026-09-18

- Daily Challenge: a dot on the Daily button when today's deal is unplayed.
- An optional once-a-day reminder at launch to play the daily (turn it off in Settings).
- Arrows to step between past days on the daily leaderboard.
- The Group Play dot now means another player is online.
