I downloaded about 6 months ago to pass the time. It’s fun and you can win a few dollars here and there. I’ve withdrawn maybe $5 per month for the first 3 months. However during the 4th month, I tried with withdraw. It goes through a process where they need to approve the withdrawal. No big deal, it usually happens in a couple of days. In short, this time, it is still not complete after 3 or 4 months. I have contacted their support in separate messages 3x. The first time, they responded and after 2 or 3 weeks, closed the support ticket without resolution. I started again, they acknowledge the issue and asked me for more details. Details I cannot provide like amount withdrawn because their app will not allow me to see history of incomplete withdrawals. Then they closed the ticket again. I open a 3rd ticket and they have not responded for 2 weeks. It’s not a big deal as it’s only $5, except the problem is I could conceivably win $100 and not be able to withdraw because their system prevents additional withdrawals until the most recent one is complete. I have even said I don’t care about the money, just clear the withdrawal so I can do a future withdrawal. But no response. I’m tired of it and will only use their system to pass time and send a support message daily until they resolve it ### 2/5 — Hope you don’t experience any issues *2023-06-02* Game itself is true to word. It is also very easy to win. However, the game crash frequent enough to ask for your money back. Customer service chat (VIP) takes days or weeks to respond and have yet to fix the problem or refund me. I’m over 50 dollars in unpaid refunds which is probably why they don’t want to give it back, but I’ve been playing consistently for awhile so I feel like it’s the least they can do. Overall I recommend until it crashes then run because it hasn’t stopped and they don’t respond. ### 2/5 — I liked the game…but…. *2023-04-28* Everyday the wheel gives the exact same rewards. It’s either 2 diamonds or 1 penny. Most of the time it’s the diamond. I also hate how if you’re not paying attention it will throw you into the highest game you can afford to play. So if you’re saving gems or money, it’s throwing you into a game that takes everything you have. I also hate the limit on games. You can only play 8 games a day for 2 gems. Unless you’re paying money you can’t really get anywhere. It’s also pretty annoying that the seasons end daily. So you’re judged on a daily score. I would pay money to play this game if it wasn’t for the rigged rewards wheel. ### 2/5 — Fake game *2023-04-24* When you start playing the first few times you win all games doesn’t matter how far you go, and that makes you believe you gonna win everything. Then you can do your best and you always gonna loose money. I’ve made the best scores that you can imagine and get the baddest place. I see that sometimes I didn’t finish the game making like 3k points and being 1st. Then you finish exactly the same game and make 17-18k points and finish on last places. Looks like you’re playing vs an algorithm or bots… anyway it’s funny to play. But everybody will loose their money! Then you actually do not receive your money instantly to PayPal as they say on the ads, the first day I got like $120 in profits when I withdraw it would takes like 2 weeks to withdrawal on my PayPal. After that I start loosing everything and that make me cancel the withdraw and try to make more money with my profits but didn’t work. Keep loosing all my profits and more … ### 2/5 — Never get a response! *2023-03-15* First of all I do not feel that I have been matched fairly since I started. I repeatedly lose over and over and over, if I were being matched with players at my same skill level the odds that I would lose so many games in a row just don’t add up. Second I have logged in daily and I never get past day 3 on the daily rewards so something is wrong with the way it responds to my login. I’m just getting frustrated and to the point I’m ready to leave a negative review on the App Store and stop playing. The games are either rigged or definitely not matched fairly because as I said the odds that I would continuously lose so many games in a row don’t add up and on top of that there are games where there are absolutely no moves and it makes no sense that other players playing the exact same game end sooner than me with such high scores, it’s literally impossible. I had read this on some of the reviews but gave this game a chance anyway but now I’ve experienced it myself several times so either address it and fix it or I will absolutely leave it in a review and be done with this app, as well as make sure as many people as possible know that it’s just another scam ### 2/5 — Very misleading *2023-03-05* As with all these apps that claim you can make hundreds of dollars in the ads, I feel there could be potential. Only thing is I have a couple problems with the game. First off is the daily reward. I’ve received it once out of the 3 times I was supposed to get it. I get on every day at around the same time and somehow at the last day it resets and I start over with out getting that final reward. It’s bull. Second, is the games. I like the games in general and solitaire is solid. You have enough diamonds to usually keep playing just regular games which is fine. However a huge problem I have is I’ve literally finished the game in record time multiple times in a row with 16k + points and still lose. Where as there’s times I can see that I have no moves left and it’s done so I end the match and I win 4 diamonds with 3k points. It makes no sense to me the brackets that they put you in. I don’t understand who I’m playing and how the system works but it seems like bull to me. Overall it’s an ok game but I feel that I’m just being duped into paying and they’re trying to take my money to play higher stake games. I haven’t spent a dime and I don’t plan to. ### 2/5 — Not as advertised *2023-03-01* I will first say that the game is fun and they do make it so you play without paying each day. However, they do not put you with player log like skill as they advertise. This is to make you lose and deposit more. Be wary. I have been playing the game for a couple of months and have deposited a few times. Each time they tease you with a win or 2, but then you eventually lose everything. What gets me, is when I lose it is to people with scores much higher than I have ever gotten. They obviously are much better than I. I typically come I. Just out of the money and the top 2 or 3 scores are higher than my highest score I have ever gotten. FALSE ADVERTISING. BEWARE. ### 4/5 — Taking away features *2023-02-16, version 1.7.0* I’ve been playing for a few days now. While I was playing they took away the 2 Diamond play where it force you to deposit funds not everybody has money to deposit. Also as soon as I made a $6 deposit they took away the Diamond plus $0.20 or something like that which I was looking forward to play. They have to do better. I’m turned off ready to delete the game. ### 3/5 — Their support needs help!!!! *2023-01-14, version 1.6.0* The game is good. They actually do pay out. However, 6 days ago I contacted support requesting a refund of a game I was playing. I paused the game; however, when I unpaused it the game froze. I was unable to continue playing, so I closed the app, opened it back up, and still could not continue the game. I still have yet to hear back from them. 6 days, when their app says they will respond within 24 hours…..likely will stop playing. ### 3/5 — It’s good but could be better *2022-12-06, version 1.5.0* Honestly I find that this game got me addicted to solitaire and loving everything about it and learning more about it. My dislikes come in to place with the gem games and money games 1 I wish there were way more options for the gem games 2 I wish you got more money to play more of the games the wheels almost never ever get you more that .10 at the very most almost every-time I wanted more gems or money I would have to watch an ad and it was 30 seconds long just for 2 gems, everytime I would play a game and win and have like 2 minutes and 30 seconds left and have that extra time bonus I almost never get even 3rd place its always the place right before the prizes and it frustrates me to the point where I have to get off the app bc I find that there is no way no one did that in only 2 minutes unreal and it’s always someone above me not only that I can’t get past silver Everytime I get on the promo zone i some how get knocked down and knocked down and I can’t do nothing about it bc I have no gems to do anything over all this game could be a lot better if you have patience go for it if you don’t I don’t recommend. ### 1/5 — Wouldn’t waste your time *2022-11-30, version 1.5.0* This app seems to only take money. There are options to get money on the app for watching an ad. It is a wheel that spins which most of the time hits on $0.01. There is a minimum of $1.00 to play. It does not matter how many places the game pays out, you mostly end up one spot out of the money. When you place in the money rankings, there’s a pop up to rate the game (it never comes up if you don’t place in the money) and it does not allow you to post a 1 star review. It also doesn’t seem to matter how much you score, it’s most usually one place out of the money. ### 3/5 — Game is fun *2022-11-28, version 1.5.0* However winning any kind of money is a joke. The daily prizes all work until you get to day 7 and it’s the highest prize and it resets to day 1. Never been able to claim day 7. Once you go from bronze to silver the ONLY prize on the wheel that will go to is .01 then resets back to bronze. Like I said the game itself is fun, the prizes need a lot of work. Lots of false advertising. ### 1/5 — SAVE YOUR TIME AND MONEY! *2022-11-16, version 1.5.0* they scammed me for $75 dollars - I won a game and I was excited I decided to try a different game to win more money but the game didn’t load and they still took the fee to play the game anyways which happened twice back to back and they refuse to give me the money back and won’t respond customer service even though it says they do within 24 hours don’t waste your time with this app unless you want to play solitaire just for fun but NEVER deposit money or expect a full payout from games you have won ### 2/5 — Sucker Game *2022-11-15, version 1.5.0* I started out liking this game a lot. I’ve been playing Solitaire games for years. This game is like others I’ve come across. If you want to win money you have to bid big. Then once you have a good amount of money built up the game makes sure you start losing. It’s not fair that you can’t bid on the smaller amounts. It’s basically cheating. I had well over $200. And then the losing began. I also don’t see anywhere it tells you how to cash out. If you’re looking to win then don’t care that you’re going to lose it all. Good luck to you. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Game play is fun, but don’t expect to get your money *2023-08-22* With the plethora of play to win cash solitaire games out there, you’d think these apps would be more closely monitored. I hope this review makes a difference for someone thinking about downloading this and hopefully, brings these criminal software devs out of the App Store completely. You will not get the money you win. Their support will stall and ask you for PayPal receipts showing that you didn’t receive your transfer. I’ve been trying to get my money (only $74) from them for 3 months. DO NOT DOWNLOAD, cannot stress enough how dirty this company is. And software developers, feel free to reach out. Prove me wrong, go ahead. I dare ya! ### 1/5 — DISAPPOINTED *2023-08-07* I have downloaded every solitaire for cash and I just recently downloaded this game. I finally put money in the game. I played the diamond game to see the rules and how it works and lost all the practice games I played. I will be the first to admit that I am old and slower than most but on all the other games I play I have at least won most of them. Not to win one out of three games is highly unlikely. That being said i then went to confirm my score but after it went to a screen that said confirm and I thought I was confirming my score again and instead it was a game that took all the cash I had just deposited and then I got ninth. I have never done that bad. I have two other games from acerna or “king whatever” games and am going to delete those also because I believe the other review that I do not trust any company that is deliberately Putting in screens intending to get Big sums of money out of your account, which is what this game did. I know this has happened before on the other games by acerna and I have done the same thing not understanding I was confirming that I wanted to spend a big amount, big being relative, so ten or less and lost everyone. Do not like deception. You choose but there are some great other company’s out there who do not do this and knowing that most people do not read all the words on a screen the are very clever to do this, I must admit. Have a fun experience. JJ ### 1/5 — Was loving it until.., *2023-05-30* The game itself is fun and addicting. Mayme even worthy of 5 stars. I deposited $50 or so and won some pots and lost some pots. There were 4 or 5 times out of maybe 50 or more games when it crashed mid game. Entry fee was completely lost. They want you to send them a screenshot. Not sure what I would screenshot when the game resets with nothing to show. I was so addicted that I deposited another $30 and it crashed 3 times out of 30 or so games. Only willing to play cheaper entry games because it hurts to much to lose $25 entry on a crash. I’m deleting the game because it’s too tempting to deposit more $$$ only to see it crash. Maybe I’ll try again someday. ### 1/5 — I don’t ever write reviews, butttt *2023-03-08* I swear I have seen the same landscape photo on bigger cash games with different names. The only reason it caught my eye, was because they were back to back and both beat me by very small amounts 2 points and then 300 points. I’m thinking it is more likely than not, they were bots! I was doing well with one of “hands” and after a handful of times, it was no longer an option? I was like where did it go? I had ran out of $, but wanted to still play! So I was playing with my gems. They had a 2 gem 💎 game after 10 hands or so, that was gone! I began to notice, they take away the smaller hands, forcing you to play in higher stakes games. 🚨Also, I have been charged small fees from my bank because this company is in Hong Kong! I haven’t tried to take money out, but I think these games are all the same! It’s pretty sad, that you have to read through a thousand pages of fine print only to find it’s not what you expected! ### 1/5 — Do not play! *2023-02-21, version 1.7.0* Decided to test this one out since the App Store is flooded with these games now. I only put in $6 since I was pretty sure I was going to be playing bots. This is also the highest rake I’ve ever seen in any game. Assuming they were real players, the developers would be keeping over 30% of each game. Absolutely insane. Immediately lost my deposited money to literally impossible scores. The generated bot names and pictures aren’t fooling anyone. Wins/losses are predetermined once you hit play like almost all “real money games”. All these apps are literally illegal gambling hiding behind the front of “skill games”. ### 1/5 — Changes *2023-02-16, version 1.7.0* I enjoyed this game until the recent update. Why were the options to play with gems taken down to only 2 options and the rest all all for money? I enjoyed playing with gems but now there’s only an option to use 2 gems (for only a few hands) or 120 gems (which takes all the gem you can earn in a day for just one hand) I really wish it could go back to the option of betting 2, 25, or more gems so you have an option to play more games. I guess I’ll have to find a new game as I REFUSE to pay money to play games. ### 1/5 — This is not a real game *2023-01-20, version 1.6.0* If you download this game don’t expect to win a big amount of money…. It baits you in to spend money thinking you have a better outcome of winning when really your just another customer spending money. I do play this for fun but I don’t and wouldn’t recommend someone to spend money your just going to lose. There also often maintenance issues it’s really just taking up space on my phone and I’m probably going to delete it soon! ### 1/5 — Misleading *2023-01-16, version 1.6.0* This app is misleading and the wording is the same way. The adds give you the impression that you will get a lot of money for simply playing not true. What they do not tell you is you must pay to play every game. You are told you get money for just downloading their app, did not happen. They use wording such as “Deposit”, however what they do not tell you upfront is that “Deposit” means “Debit”. In other words you will be charged not given credit. Check out thoroughly before playing. It is not what you are lead to believe. In my opinion you have not gained a penny if you must pay to play. ### 1/5 — Lost money *2022-12-18, version 1.5.0* I usually play this game with no problems. I keep losing but that’s a part of it. My problem is that I finally deposited a lot of money to me being ($15) then played one of the games for $16 since I already had $1 and then it wants to tell me I don’t have internet and that if I exit I lose the game. That’s not right to me because I have wifi and it works fine and now I lost money because of what? Not okay at all. ### 1/5 — Scam alert! *2022-12-01, version 1.5.0* They filter all of the bad reviews out. This was the only game I would play but they changed it so you can only play a few free hands a day. I have added money but I do not anymore! I have watched my face of my cards literally change as I’m moving another card. It always changes from a card that can actually be used to a card that can not. Every single time it happens! Do not give this game your money! It is a scam and it is undeniable rigged!!!! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — The Grass is Greener! *2023-07-03* I’m glad I found this game Solitary King, it’s challenging, they are generous with their gifts, coins, Jewels and money is back and forth, you think you are down, and then you place third and are back to where you started. I can’t remember if I bought in on this one or not because I can’t remember having all that. But I am trying out about 7 different bingo games and so far this one has my vote! I’ll be back to update about the money situation. I know, when I checked in today I had $7 bonus cash and $17 in cashable money but I opted to leave it in to build up a cushion and to use up my bonus cash or I would lose it, If I cashed out with bonus cash in my account. The slate starts clean when you cash out. Lots of extras like side games where you participate by either using your coin or bells, crowns or watching a video..so, there is a lot and I know I’m forgetting something. But it so far seems fun, exciting and rewarding. I’ll let you know about the winning situation on my next post. Good Luck! ### 5/5 — Options for filling in idle time mentally *2023-02-23, version 1.7.0* As an average kart player that has been on a hiatus I found myself placing this app on my iPad. Honestly I did not expect to enjoy it as much as I do however I have not invest USD in the same manner that I play other King games dominoes, pool, spades, you get the idea… FYI I never expected to see myself take my time to leave a post. Obviously it’s a beautiful day to leave a post. Enjoy yourself and give it a try. ### 5/5 — Amazing *2023-02-17, version 1.7.0* I’ve lost some money playing but I have won big time several times like up to almost $1,000 now 🤘🤘 the game is great you do lose and sometimes the deck feels a little stacked against you but you can win big!! ### 5/5 — iPhone, and iPad are not sync *2023-02-01, version 1.6.0* Five stars for an awesome game I really enjoyed playing I can only say I’m addicted. However, my concern is that my iPad and my iPhone I know sync and it’s like having two separate accounts under the same name. The reason I’m saying this is I was playing on my iPad and I had to leave so I forgot finish it on my phone. Well when I opened up the game on the phone I only had one diamond and I like how did that happen I just had 122 diamonds and I haven’t done a thing, but when I compare the two iPad and iPhone, it’s me, but it’s not me. I want to play your money games, but this situation is making it very scary for me. Please help me figure out why my devices are not sync. Or is this the way things are done on your site? ### 5/5 — Great game!!! *2022-12-23, version 1.5.0* This game is great for lying to you, never got a penny so I deleted it. I just saw a new ad and boy are they full of crap. What gets me there is no one to complain to… someone should start a website that rates them all so you know and will not waste time. ### 5/5 — Solitaire king *2022-11-14, version 1.5.0* Please y’all listen. This game is fire ok!!! Cash out is good. It’s fun to play, and you never get tired. you can play with as little as two gems, and if you win the prize pool you can get up til like seven or eight gyms or sometimes more. You can spin the wheel for a few cent once you get your J Gems up and you can spend the wheel and get money to play with, and then enter the tournament and then get some nice little change I mean good coffee money y’all for real I am very skeptical and I have tried so many games out there but I love my solitaire king I love my solitaire king ### 5/5 — Great game *2022-11-11, version 1.4.0* They actually let you pull out all your money except bonus cash. And they break it down and split up the bonus cash unlike other games. This is the best one I’ve found so far!! ### 5/5 — Finally *2022-11-09, version 1.4.0* Imagine all the games you grew up playing when you were bored. Now imagine these same games at the beaconing at your finger tips. Finally imagine out of nowhere you make enough money winning these games to fund a good weekend out with family and friends!!! ### 5/5 — . I usually gets first or seconds so I’m tempted to gamble a li *2022-11-04, version 1.4.0* I enjoy playing solitaire app yesssss If I’m doing this good on this solitaire app I might actually put money on it but I’m afraid it will trick me into losing too much with no bonus in the return. I usually gets first or seconds so I’m tempted to gamble a lil bit . But I might give them my cash app . Idk ### 5/5 — Fun game ! *2022-11-01, version 1.4.0* This is my go to game anytime I have a few minutes to spare! It’s competitive but not repetitive and against real people which I appreciate & the best part is it really pays out and does the things it says without a million ad’s ! Great game and excellent execution, if you like or love solitaire then this is your game !!! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
