Warnings, Before You Buy
This is a difficult variant of Klondike solitaire.
Try the free unlimited demo before you buy and see if the game suits you.
All games cannot be won. This game uses full randomness and resembles playing solitaire with physical cards. This is a risky design decision I took early on. Some computer solitaire players will not enjoy this.
56 card deck winnability is approximately 6-10% lower than in regular 52 card Klondike solitaire.
In long term you can expect to win perhaps 10-20% of the games, depending on skill and luck.
There is no easy mode.
Developer
