Great Value
It’s great to find an entertaining game that doesn’t require a monthly fee. This a fantastic implementation of the classic solitaire game.
True to Life
Excellent version of the actual card game. Only winnable games would be a nice option.
Seahaven
I have been playing Seahaven since the 80s. I have to say I’m addicted to it. It’s a wonderful version of solitaire and I absolutely love it. I even play it while I’m listening to the news on TV.
Super
Insgesamt gute Umsetzung!
2 Bitten:
- im Hochkantformat oben weniger Icons, so dass Neustart und neues Spiel nicht so dicht nebeneinander liegen müssen
- im Querformat Notch aussparen so dass man die Karten erkennen kann
(Vielleicht am linken Rand über die Notch „neustart“ und unter die Notch „neues Spiel“?)
Sonst alles gut, macht viel Spaß! Danke!

Great solitaire
Every game used to be winnable. I’m disappointed that’s not the case anymore.
My absolute favorite game in its best iPad version
I’ve played tens of thousands of this game since starting in 1986. I play it more than ten to twenty times a day. There is more of a strategy component than other solitaire games. You are going to love this game.
Some of the changes are unfortunate including annoying new sounds.
What would be good is to poll the app for winning games, so only games with a possible win are presented.

Great game!
One quibble: with today’s update, you added new tabletops but removed card faces. The new card faces are harder to read within the colors, and make the game less fun to play. Of course, I could also blame my 76-y-o eyes...
Update 1 Mar 19: Thank you for bringing back the original card faces. My favorite game for 15 years, going back to the Mac version.

Finally a Challenge!
"Not all games are winnable" elevates card gaming beyond checkers. You'd need a PhD in Chemistry or some-such to win monkey shenanigans. And the music is original and soothing. Games should include relaxing versus all the frenetic die or pay more schemes out there, but of course that's a personal choice, and my personal favorite for years on original Macs now rocks iOS 9!

Good. Make it great!
I've been a fan of this game since the original Mac version decades ago. This version is OK; it could use a "redo" button.
Biggest problem is that it offers UNWINNABLE games! This could be solved by either
1) A leader board, allowing you to tackle games others have already won; OR
2) Build in a solver. Exhaustive search works fine and is pretty easy. This would support other features too, like a "give up" button...

Love this game so much. Thank you more than you know for making gene letters bigger! You are great!
Awful Change
Probably going to delete the app. Really liked the old format. New format literally gives me a headache. Besides the unfortunate new format, I no longer have sound.
Why the change?
This is not an update or improvement; it is just a change ... and a bad one. By placing the piles and free spaces on the side (instead of the top) there is less room for the cards so they are small and hard to read.

New update? Cards are so small you can't even see suit
Great to have ST back!!
I've missed it since Apple's OS no longer supported Art's original game.
I'd like to see the graphics improved. I miss the ability to choose from only solvable games. I would also like to see the clock stop when the game is paused; frustrating to see a resumed game timed out at 24 plus hours!

Seahaven Gold now only bronze
Good app until iOS 8 update.
Now quits unexpectedly mid game sometimes restarts same game sometimes a new game. Needs this bug fixing.

Hate the new card faces-not eye-friendly.
Really sorry I upgraded this app- haven't played it since.

Oh Dear
If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Please, please, please, at least give us the option to go back to the V1.x graphics. The V2.x graphics are awful. Too digital, too stark and cold all which makes them very hard to use intuitively. I really don't understand this change the graphics trend for the sake of change. Leave well enough alone. Please.

Not a great update
This update did nothing to improve the game and much to hinder it. The cards are now much more difficult to read, and none of the backgrounds are pleasant. Can I have the old one back?
Update: What happened here? It's ruined!
I have played hundreds of games on the original version of this iPad app, and thousands of games on the old Mac version over the years. This update is better, but still crap.
- The cards still all look alike. I still can't see anything. I have tried, but I haven't managed to complete a game. Can you try the longer card layout with the horizontal arrangement of number-suit? The packed format is impossible. The game doesn't need visual challenges.
- The background choices are visually noisy. The game is challenging in a pure way; it doesn't need music, dancing monkeys, or varied backgrounds to interfere with it.
- At least the music has stopped... For now.
- If I try to report a problem, write a review (in-app), or request a feature, the app quits. On restart, the settings are returned to default. "Riipp, ripp!" Does anybody really like that shuffling sound?
- All of these changes could have been feature selections that preserved the classic interface for those who want it. If the prior version were still available, I'd delete this one and buy the old one again. Yes, buy... With money.

Turn for the worse
This is a wonderful game, but this is an awful version for IPAD (full of glitches (e.g. sounds that will not turnoff, cards getting stuck in little clumps below the stacks and being immovable) . The previous version was excellent- what a pity
