Designed by a Solitaire loving Mom and Daughter, Full Deck Solitaire is a beautiful card game with an easy to use user interface. Eight four uniquely different variations of Solitaire not seen in many other games keep even the most seasoned guru occupied. Statistics for each game let you know how many hours you have played, games you have won and your highest score for that game. A uniquely smart three level hint system lets you know if there are moves to play and will even shake the cards if you can’t quite see that elusive move.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Full Deck Solitaire at Free against Solitaire Pro's $9.99.

On rating and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
