### 3/5 — Hope there’s a new update

*2026-02-23*

I really appreciate the design of the game, however, after playing for a while, I surprisingly noticed none of the games I played was victorious. I retried again and again but the result never changed.

### 4/5 — Parfait mais crashe depuis iOS 26.2

*2026-01-03, version 3.0.3*

Tout est ds le titre : bon jeu, pas de fioritures, mais ne se lance plus depuis iOS 26.2 … triste

### 2/5 — bastantes fallas

*2024-12-26, version 3.0.3*

bastantes fallas

### 2/5 — Невозможно играть

*2023-11-04, version 3.0.3*

Красивое минималистичное оформление, но играть нереально. Слишком много раскладов без возможности его завершения даже если все делать правильно. Непродумана видимо система выдачи карт

### 4/5 — Just needs an update

*2023-09-11, version 3.0.3*

Would love a redo game option, otherwise awesome game 🎉

### 2/5 — Идея интересная, но

*2023-07-27, version 3.0.3*

Играть совершенно не возможно

### 4/5 — Nice to look at

*2023-06-12, version 3.0.3*

This is by far the most visually appealing Solitaire app I have found for iOS. For that alone I give it 4 stars. It would be 5 stars if it had more features. If there was an upgrade for $5 that brought in new features like statistics and other customizations, I would gladly pay it.

### 4/5 — LoL

*2023-03-13, version 3.0.3*

finally been able to win after 94 losses!!!!!
don’t know how accurate the odds of being able to win are but i’m assuming it’s normally easier?

### 2/5 — Good but...

*2022-01-07, version 3.0.3*

This app like pretty but needs an undo button and a way to replay decks

### 3/5 — Review

*2021-12-12*

Would prefer the whole card showed. Double tap should move the card to the appropriate stack.  Need an undo button.

### 5/5 — Minimalist & Beautiful Design

*2021-12-07*

Exactly what I’ve been searching for

### 5/5 — Parfait

*2021-11-29, version 3.0.3*

Sa difficulté et son ergonomie en font un jeu très addictif. En plus de ça, il ne consomme presque pas de batterie, c’est génial.

J’ai joué 6400 parties et je compte bien continuer encore longtemps

### 4/5 — Love

*2021-09-27*

It’s simple and elegant. I wish it had undo and the option for a traditional horizontal layout, but otherwise I love this!

### 3/5 — Stockpile is painful to reach, cool aesthetic, relaxing

*2021-09-03*

TLDR: for painless play, I would love an option that switches the location of the stockpile versus the settings buttons. Currently have to painfully contort thumb to access. Very nice looking game, beautiful, simple, relaxing.

It has a nice aesthetic — love the different modes, and I could definitely see myself playing this at night. The issue that is stopping me from using this version is the location of the stockpile. I know this may be a weird complaint. Folding my thumb down into the corner closest to my palm repeatedly is uncomfortable and within a short time, painful. For those of us with less-than-stellar thumb flexibility, an option to use the stockpile from a different location would be easier. Even just having the stockpile still on the bottom edge, but towards the middle of the phone or even the opposite side would be easier by far. Ideally, an option to replace the settings button with the stockpile would be amazing. Extending the thumb (for me at least) is much easier and painless.
Thank you! :)

### 4/5 — Two Leaderboards are Missing

*2021-07-25*

The 'Average Time Leaderboard' and the 'Win Rate Leaderboard' are missing, that would be great to see when competing with friends.  Other than that the game is super smooth and cool.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Good potential, too many issues

*2024-01-02, version 3.0.3*

Moving the cards is terribly annoying. Too many of the games dead end.

### 1/5 — szánalmas

*2023-03-07, version 3.0.3*

irányítás teljesen különbözik a leírástól, nem lehet végig vinni, rengetek kártya egyszerűen nincs benne

### 1/5 — 全是死局

*2022-08-10*

玩了几局没一局能通过，全是死局

### 1/5 — 容易玩成死局

*2022-08-01*

这游戏作者想做出点与蜘蛛纸牌不一样的地方，确实玩法上不仅仅只有蜘蛛纸牌的交替花色排序，还要考虑自己的手牌，与场上已有的牌结合，从而实现翻牌。显然游戏的可玩性大大提高，同时这样的话，游戏的逻辑就要比蜘蛛纸牌大很多，但是作者好像并没有完善好这个游戏，即使你一次仅使用一张手牌去连接场上的牌，翻出来的牌也可能会使你大跌眼镜，最后成为死局。只能说作者想法很不错，可惜能力不足，做出来一个残次品。

### 1/5 — 垃圾游戏

*2021-09-30*

垃圾游戏

### 1/5 — bad experience

*2021-03-19, version 3.0.3*

I have installed on iphone 12, touch function has some missing reactions

### 1/5 — 玩后感受

*2021-03-17*

只有第一局玩过了，后面连续玩了20局，没有一局不卡住的，明显是算法有问题。

### 1/5 — Good game, needs some QoL updates

*2021-01-08, version 3.0.3*

Needs an undo and a hint button.

### 1/5 — Impossible to win

*2020-03-22, version 3.0.3*

Really difficult game

### 1/5 — Not functioning properly

*2019-05-19, version 3.0.3*

I like to think I am quite good at solitaire but out of 47 games, only one has been winnable. I can play other similar apps and the average is much more balanced. It’s almost like the game is rigged rather than random. So, if a version which only provides frustration is what you are looking for, this is the one for you.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Used to love it

*2026-02-03, version 3.0.3*

Until updated my iPhone to iOS 26… and this app won’t run anymore

### 5/5 — Everything in this app works

*2025-10-02, version 3.0.3*

I just have a single issue, you see, I’m just a casual player so the fact that you can’t change the difficulty of the game makes it somewhat I don’t know… like, not enjoyable. That’s my opinion, I just want to lower the difficulty for my games. I love the design of this app and I’d love to keep on playing here, so… it’s just that.
Best regards.

### 5/5 — Ideal

*2025-08-01, version 3.0.3*

Free. No ads. Works well. Aesthetically pleasing. No notes!

### 5/5 — Best old gane

*2025-06-14*

I have this game for over five years now, and I play every day. I wish the developer would go back and keep updating it, or developing new games. The interface is perfectly minimalistic and beautiful.

### 5/5 — Beautiful app

*2024-12-04, version 3.0.3*

Such a nice app. Pretty perfect. Easily the cleanest and best/looking solitaire app. I use it all the time. 🙂

### 5/5 — Cancel button

*2024-12-02, version 3.0.3*

Dear team! I love your game and I'm so sad that you stopped supporting it. 
Beautiful minimalism, thank you! I'd be so happy if you added a "cancel" button! 
Good luck!

### 5/5 — Something very important

*2023-10-16, version 3.0.3*

Developer if you are here yet, pls made cancel move button🙏🙏🙏 I wish it for a 3 years I played this game

### 5/5 — 絕對要體驗

*2023-05-01, version 3.0.3*

滿滿的細節又不失簡約

### 5/5 — Best Solitaire Mobile Game

*2023-04-08, version 3.0.3*

Multiple themes and options, an ad free experience, an authentic solitaire game, what more could I possibly ask for from this app? It is perfect

### 5/5 — Still awesome

*2023-01-21*

5 years since the last update and this game still slaps
