Zotz! vs Solitaire After Dark

Zotz! is an enjoyable time-waster, a form of perceptual practice, good for training the brain and the eyes; there is no timer and no score, no pressure, just a simple challenge waiting for you whenever you like. The game supposes a deck of cards, where each card has four attributes, and each attribute on any given card has one of three possible values: Number (one, two, or three), Color (red, blue, or green), Fill (solid, hazy, or empty), and Shape (diamond, oval, or rectangle). All you have to do is to spot, amongst the visible cards, any three cards which, for each attribute, are either all identical or all different. Colors, middle fill type, and number of cards in the layout can all be customized. Full instructions, with examples, are included.

Solitaire After Dark is a solitaire roguelike set in a smoky 1960s cocktail lounge. Each Night deals a fresh Klondike board with a Heat target - you don't have to solve the board, you have to make it score. EVERY MOVE SCORES. Chips x Mult across your shelf: reveals, foundation plays, emptied columns, chains - and Trysts, when a Queen lands on her King and the whole table heats up. CHARM THE REGULARS. Fifty-plus club patrons join your shelf as relics, and their order changes the math. Arrange the shelf; that IS the strategy. MIX THE COCKTAILS. Tear a card into wildcards, fuse two into one, peek at face-downs, destroy a dead card. The rules are more of a dress code. SURVIVE THE VIPS. Boss Nights impose house rules - The Tease, The Bouncer, The Rush. Plan a week ahead and build for them. A SEASON OF NIGHTS. Eight Weeks, Tips and interest, Memberships, Outfits, Floors to climb, a Guest Book to fill - and seeded runs to share. OR JUST PLAY CARDS. Classic Klondike, Draw-3, Vegas, Winnable deals, Spider (1, 2, or 4 suits), and FreeCell - all dressed for the evening: living-portrait cards, club lighting, a swing soundtrack. FREE, NO STRINGS. No ads. No paywalls. Nothing at these tables is locked behind a purchase - every Night, every Regular, every classic table is just there. If the house treats you well there is an optional tip jar behind the Support Us door. A tip unlocks nothing. It just keeps the lights on.
