### 2/5 — Takes forever to get to the game.

*2024-12-19, version 2.16*

Too many commercials.

### 3/5 — Fine implementation but

*2021-05-20, version 2.13*

Latest update just hangs on load on older iPad Air. Other than that, it has been a good distraction.

### 2/5 — To many ads

*2020-11-17, version 2.11*

### 2/5 — To many adds

*2020-04-10, version 2.11*

Why so many adds, it’s not attractive: make it attractive with no adds to start with then give an option with or without adds.

### 4/5 — Great ap

*2019-03-26, version 2.10*

I really like your Ap. But it gets glitchy to where I’m pounding the screen. My phone is new so I think it’s your ap. Still rated it 4 stars.

### 2/5 — Paid and still got ads

*2018-12-17, version 1.3*

Title says it all. I paid for an ad free version, got charged and still get ads.

### 3/5 — Rarely get a winning hand!

*2018-12-09, version 1.3*

What’s the deal ( no pun intended)? I’ve never had so many dead end hands

### 3/5 — Ads

*2018-11-24, version 1.3*

I love the customization options but there are so many ads it makes me feel like they’re tilting the games to lose more often so I can see more ads.

### 5/5 — Solitaire

*2018-11-06, version 1.3*

“Solitaire Extraordinaire” ... Love playing this particular solitaire game. Sooooo addictive and keeps your mind alert while relaxing at same time. I really recommend this game.

### 1/5 — Bugs

*2021-06-03, version 2.13*

There are bugs that prevent the game from being opened on iPhone 11 Pro Max.

### 1/5 — Delay

*2021-05-19, version 2.13*

Ads are now way to long.

### 1/5 — Not happy with the click here to stop ads

*2021-01-23, version 2.11*

Goes straight to payment.

### 1/5 — Ads

*2020-09-05, version 2.11*

Too many to often,cards freeze up and won’t move when on top of the menu icon

### 1/5 — To many adds

*2020-03-23, version 2.11*

I understand you will have adds but after every game is unacceptable. This won’t force me to pay for no adds it will make me delete the game.

### 1/5 — This Game is EXCEPTIONALLY GOOD

*2019-06-29, version 2.11*

Seriously, this game is REALLY GOOD. However it does have a lot of room for improvement.

As with most games, there are several elements for a "WIN". Two of those elements are luck and skill. This game does an excellent attempt to separate when someone just got lucky or when that someone has played with skill, speed and perseverance by separating the score into "First Play" and "High Score". It also documents your "Undos". This wonderful design favors competition and motivates users to come back and back. It allows you to practice and improve your skills and rewards you as you get better. These features I ABSOLUTELY LOVE.

Now the improvements. As with any game, people always find a way to cheat and take undue, undeserved credit and glory. You can easily tell, when a game in particular, one that has a specific order for several steps that must be done in a specific way to get both a high score and a great speed, that the person has cheated. 

The way they do it is by attempting the "First Play" several times without actually finishing it so the first play will not be registered. They will attempt it as many times as they need and stopping right at the end before the actual "Win" happens. The result is that their "First Play" will be registered with an impossible high score to obtain "just by luck". This defeats the purpose of the "First Play" which is to document the combination of LUCK and SKILL.

If the programmer was able to separate "First Play" and "High Score" as well as keep records of the number of games that have used the "Undo" feature, it should be easy to also document and display HOW MANY ATTEMPTS HAVE BEEN DONE TOWARDS OBTAINING A WIN in the "First Play" and actually penalizing them with a lower score. This will force them to play the game by LUCK and SKILL as it was intended.

Another feature that would greatly enhance this game, promote competition and make it extremely more popular is to allow some sort of communication between the users (in case the users do want to communicate), enabling them to publicly or privately share techniques, organize competitions, etc. This could be a simple settings feature which the user can either enable or disable at will or even simpler by allowing a facebook link to a page. The facebook format is ideal and very easy to implement. It's also free.

Lastly, there are a couple of annoying bugs: 

1. Every time the phone rings the "Sound Effects" disappear permanently until you reboot the phone or wait a few hours. The lack of sound feedback has you constantly checking to see if you have achieved a wining move thus wasting valuable speed. 

2. The other bug is in "My Stats". Achievements earned are not working. The display always says "0". I struggle to believe someone hasn't bothered to fix it.

3. It would be great if I could correct my username in the settings. A simple fix. 

4. Finally, I use the paid version. Please respect us and stop annoying us with suggestions for other games. NO ADS means “NO ADS” !!! What did I do to give you the impression when I paid that I only wanted “some” ads? 

Find a better way to market and make new game announcements, like the facebook page I suggested above when the user is in the state of mind and mood to hear about it and not when he wants to play. 

Given that all these improvements have not been added, despite them being so easy to implement, earns this game a 3-Star status which would otherwise be a 5-Star game. It is one of the best Solitaire games available in it's class. I don't expect it to be a multi-user game given that it has the reverse effect on the majority of the users of demotivating them due to the increased level of difficulty when playing against more advanced users.

### 1/5 — Just stuck on ad

*2019-04-25, version 2.10*

I played one game, comparing this to another app but after one game I got an ad, that lasted a long time and then wouldn’t go away. My only option was to “play” that game. Ahhh, no. So that was the end of my comparison.

### 1/5 — Something’s changed

*2019-02-08, version 1.4*

I was enjoying this game but since updating it keeps coming out of the game and not always letting me get back in. The commands at the bottom are too high and in the way of how I play this game!

### 1/5 — New Update Added Banner Ads...

*2019-02-07, version 1.4*

The newest update added a banner ad at the bottom of the screen, blocking part of the game. Please revert back to not having banner ads!

### 1/5 — Site crashes too often.

*2018-04-14, version 1.3*

Would be a great game without this!

### 5/5 — Stopped working! Problem fixed!

*2021-08-11, version 2.14*

Without a doubt my favorite game app! I complained a couple months ago that there was a problem. It has been fixed and the game works great! (Even if I am in the hole!)

Former review - no longer a problem. Up until about two weeks ago, this was my favorite solitaire game. I have it on four different devices. Then suddenly I’d start it and it would just get stuck on the opening screen. Deleting and reloading only helps for a day, and then the problem comes back. So disappointing.

### 5/5 — Great

*2021-05-18, version 2.13*

Well as usual another well made app by this developer. Graphics and game play is perfect and lots of options in style of cards and backgrounds. You can remove the ads for $1.99 as so worth it.

### 5/5 — Great games

*2019-12-14, version 2.11*

I spend a lot of time on this.  Frustrating and fun.

### 5/5 — Mr

*2019-10-21, version 2.11*

Good time killer !

### 5/5 — Best version for SOL pro’s like me

*2019-08-08, version 2.11*

2:20. My best time. I can solve usually under 3:00 at least 50% of the time. I appreciate the challenging hands I get that I can’t solve. It’s motivation. Good version. I’ve played many, I stick to this one.

### 5/5 — 5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

### 5/5 — Solitaire

*2019-05-09, version 2.11*

It's the best solitaire game I have downloaded on all my contraptions! No interruptions of the game, can change the backgrounds of the cards, and the game itself. I "do" enjoy this particular app. Thanks for bringing it out to play. Please keep it as enjoyable as it is.

### 5/5 — Solitaire

*2019-04-08, version 2.10*
