Solitaire Game Pack 4+

Excellent App!

I started with the Go Solitaire! several months ago and enjoyed it very much. Each update made it better and better. Later I got the iPad version and continued to enjoy it. This last version, The Solitaire Pack Game, is great! Besides a larger variety of backgrounds and cards, it now has 5 new games, giving the player more choices. Now if I want just a little challenge, I play the old Klondike or Free Cell, which are easier to win. In contrast, if I want more challenge, I play the new games. They are though, but enjoyable. The whole game pack is addicting. Good the thing I am not being charged by each time I play it.

Buggy and potentially abandoned

Nearly at the end and 3 cards are missing. This app hasn’t been updated in two years so may have been abandoned by the dev.

Hi, no, not abandoned. Can you e-mail me at support@patrickjmaloneyllc.com with the details of the problem?

Excellent! Still, there are a couple of issues...

Great app, but it has some issues!

1) We can never find this on iTunes! Its actual name is Solitaire Game Pack, but you'd never know that as it shows up on the iPad as Solitaire! (On the home screen; in the Settings list; within the app itself.) That needs fixing.

2) The Restore Purchases option does NOT work! Even though we've paid for this, we keep getting ads. Paying is supposed to quash them! It's frustrating. We've deleted the app, reinstalled it, and tried it on other devices, and still no happiness!

TO THE DEVELOPER: THANKS FOR REACHING OUT TO ME BUT THIS IS STILL A PROBLEM!

In any event, the app has a great variety of games, good user controls, and is quite engaging. However, we have “graduated” to Solebon Solitaire as the cards look so much better and the developers have created a set of interesting new types of solitaire.

Mr. Maloney, please release this version tailored for the iPhone and iPod Touch--we could play at night with less glow to wake our partners! (The one he has out for the little i-devices includes only a couple of games and costs a buck!) (Money isn't the issue, # of games is!)

--------------------

Thanks for adding the new games! Please don't listen to the suggestions to revamp the interface--having the main screen with all the options works brilliantly! Sounds would ruin the peace and quiet. Adding some for those who want them would be fine, but please give us an option to turn them all off or choose which ones to hear.

Have only 1 suggestion. We're addicted to the game Thirteen, but never win. Please permit a second pass through the stack. And, if it wouldn't be too hard, a version like 14 where all the cards would be visible would be great. (And one where we could add 3 or more cards together to make 13!) As you tell, we just want to finally win!

P.S. We have won, at last. But having some variants would be good.
