Smart Clock Solitaire is a fun type of solitaire made even better! You can choose to play an easy or more challenging game by choosing the mode you want to play: Lucky or Smart. Lucky mode is the traditional clock solitaire. You just keep moving the cards in the order they are opened and hope you will be able to open all piles of cards before the 4 kings appear. Very easy to play but success rate is very low. Smart mode is a new type of clock solitaire. It depends on your ability to choose the best cards and remember the ones that you already saw. Instead of one card the two topmost cards are open and you can choose which one you want to move. If you don’t win the game the first time around you can keep replaying the same game. More challenging to play but success rate is very high. Statistics for the mode are shown at the end of each game. A special feature allows the player to see the topmost cards at the two possible destiny piles when he is playing in the Smart mode.

Gin Rummy Reimagined: Master the Melds – A Fresh Twist on a Classic! Challenge your skills in this exciting, strategic card game where every decision counts. Play against a clever computer opponent in a battle to minimize your points and outsmart your rival round after round. Key Features: Intuitive Touch Controls — Sort your hand at will, tap to draw, double-tap the discard pile to grab the top card, and drag cards smoothly into 4 dedicated melding quadrants. Unique 5-Area Scoring System — Form valid melds (sets of 3-4 same rank or runs of 3+ consecutive in the same suit) across your main hand + 4 separate melding areas. Melds score 0 points — master arranging cards so every area turns purple and becomes deadwood-free! Wild Cards — A revealed wild rank (shown in the blue circle) substitutes for any card, adding exciting flexibility each round. Special Twists — Reach 0 points first? Your opponent gets one final shot if you do — or you earn an extra turn if the computer goes out first! Strategic Depth — Avoid common pitfalls: Don't leave loose cards that prevent a meld in your main hand. Drag groups to quadrants to lock in 0-point areas before discarding. How to Play: Deal and draw from the deck or snag the discard pile. Build Melds — Drag cards to the 4 quadrants; watch for the satisfying purple glow when a valid 0-point meld forms. Discard to end your turn — but plan carefully! Cards in meld areas stay safe; deadwood in your hand costs you points (A=1, faces=10, numbers=face value). Minimize Points — The lowest cumulative score after multiple rounds wins! Perfect for casual play or sharpening your card strategy. With snap-to-place dragging, clear visual feedback, and escalating tension as rounds progress, this is Gin Rummy evolved — more control, more strategy, more fun. Download now and start melding your way to victory! Can you keep every area purple and leave your opponent with the points?
