Similar to traditional Klondike solitaire with a cribbage twist. Move cards around to make the best crib hands possible. Every stack of 5 exposed cards will score as a traditional cribbage hand.

Both are free to download. Cribbage Premium sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Cribbage Klondike asks for nothing beyond the download.
Cribbage Premium holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cribbage Premium has 8.3K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 88% of Cribbage Premium's written reviews are positive against 100% of Cribbage Klondike's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Cribbage Premium ships an update every 2 months, Cribbage Klondike every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 20, 2026 and October 2, 2026 respectively.
