Why another version of classic spider solitaire? For all levels of players: Optimized for minimal touches - Most moves are made with a single touch. The intelligent ‘Hint Bot’ can predict the most likely desired move for any card touched. In the vast majority of cases it is exactly what you wanted. If not, touch the card again for the next choice. Unplugged! - No advertising, no social media , muted animations, and no data captured. Just you and the game! Curated games for more fun - Although you can enable random deals, the default mode ‘cherry picks’ from random deals to give you games that have better starting moves and more likelihood of winning. More fun! For the serious player (like the author): - The optimized minimal touches really make a difference when you play multiple games in a row. - The intelligent predictive move mechanism (‘hint bot’) is very good. It is capable of viewing nearly all possible sequences of future moves and ranking the results. - Intelligent hints let you find possible moves as much as 8 or 9 steps in the future. This becomes a 'game within a game'. If the hint bot suggests that you can extend a buried run or clear a cluttered column in 8 moves, can you figure it out? - Powerful undo mechanisms. Automatic 'bookmarking' allows you to undo to the last ‘interesting’ place in the game. It can take you to specific places like the last draw or to the last time two specific columns were empty and more. Surprisingly useful for the dedicated player! - IT’S JUST PLAIN SMART! Options: - One, two, three or four suits. - Allow draws when there are empty columns. - Visual choices like backgrounds, sounds, and button size.
