SOLITAIRE, WITH NOTHING IN THE WAY. Solitaire Edge is Klondike the way you remember it: draw one or draw three, standard or Vegas scoring, multi-step undo. No ads. No in-app purchases. No account to create and nothing to unlock. EVERY DEAL CAN BE WON In Guaranteed mode, every deal comes from a set a solver has already played through to a win with Standard scoring. Playing with Standard scoring, if you lose, the cards were not the reason. Prefer it the old way? Classic mode deals at random, winnable or not. A HINT THAT TELLS YOU HOW SURE IT IS Most solitaire hints point at any legal move. This one searches for a line that still wins from where you are and shows you its first move. When it cannot prove one in time, it falls back to a safe move chosen by rule rather than by a full search, and when it has to guess, it tells you it is a guess. A COACH THAT TELLS YOU THE TRUTH The Coach tells you whether the deal can still be won. When it can pin down the move where the win slipped away, it shows you that move and lets you rewind to it and play on. When it cannot tell, it says so. TODAY'S DEAL A new deal every day, the same for everyone playing the same draw. MADE FOR THE WAY YOU PLAY • Drag or tap to move cards • Multi-step undo • Draw 1 or Draw 3 • Standard or Vegas scoring • Statistics for every game type, including win and losing streaks • Your own leaderboards for each mode: best score, fewest moves and best time • An optional running Vegas total that carries your points from deal to deal • Colour-blind suits: hearts and diamonds drawn hollow, clubs and spades solid • A choice of card back colours • Sound you can switch off • Plays offline • Built for iPhone and iPad THE ONLY THING WE PROMOTE One tab, More Games, shows our other apps. That is the only promotion in Solitaire Edge, and it never appears during a game. Made by one developer who wanted a solitaire game that respects your break.
