# Microsoft Solitaire Collection vs Glitch

The clearest difference is ads: Glitch at none against Microsoft Solitaire Collection's shown. Glitch also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs every 6 weeks) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Microsoft Solitaire Collection's advantage is ratings volume (257K vs 1) and chart position (#147 vs unranked). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Microsoft Solitaire Collection sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Glitch sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Glitch holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Microsoft Solitaire Collection has 257K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Microsoft Solitaire Collection ships an update every 6 weeks, Glitch every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 28, 2026 and October 21, 2026 respectively.
