Try to get all your work done before you run out of coffee and candy in Finished! by renowned board and card game designer Friedemann Friese. Deal 3 cards at a time, like regular solitaire but you can use candy to activate cards to draw more and rearrange them. Gain more candy when you have a run of cards (e.g. 7-8-9). If you love Spider or FreeCell solitaire you'll love Finished! Finished! features fantastic fun, smooth animation, subtle sound effects and dynamic music that changes with your gameplay. Try the Daily Challenge which Friedemann plays *every* day. See if you can literally beat him at his own game. :)
