Solitaire by MobilityWare Review

With well over a dozen different Solitaire apps on the Appstore, users who are looking for that classic solitaire experience may be overwhelmed with what is available to them, so it's a good thing that MobilityWare have created the ultimate Solitaire app for the iPhone.

Solitaire controls like most other Solitaire games on the appstore. As the cards are dealt out you simply tap and drag to move cards around the table or double tap to automatically move cards from the table to the 4 decks at the top. While the current control scheme is fine, it's strange that they didn't include the option for players to tap a card and then tap elsewhere to place it. Other similar apps have offered this feature and it would have been a good alternative control scheme.

MobilityWare have added a great number of customizable features to suit a wide range of players, from the ability to change the orientation of the table to suit how you hold your iPhone, or being able to position the table based on if you're right or left handed. Solitaire also features a wide range of customizable deck patterns and the option to switch between modern and classic card styles.

Solitaire gives veterans of the game the freedom of customization to suit their playstyle, while also providing a lengthy instruction guide for beginners. If you're looking for the premier Solitaire app for the iPhone, look no further than Solitaire by MobilityWare.

Description

If you like Windows Solitaire, you're going to love this app!

The same classic Windows Solitaire game plus the ability to control card movements naturally by just swiping or tapping the cards on your iPhone/iPod touch/iPad.

We've always strived to stay true to the classic game of Solitaire (also known as Klondike, the most popular version of Solitaire), and now we've added the unique option of playing games against other people!

Play the classic game you love all by yourself or you can also compete against other players in real-time. Our Solitaire can deal the same hand to multiple players so they can compete against each other at the same time. You can have your choice of challenging your friends or be matched up against a completely random player. Exciting!

As one of our users proudly states, "I never thought I'd say Solitaire makes for a fun social game, but the latest version is pretty impressive and knowing that I'm competing against others has changed the motivation to play completely."

Haven't won a deal in a while? Winning Deals are now available. You can configure the game so that we deal you hands that are guaranteed to have at least one winning solution. Still can't figure out how to win? The "Show Me How To Win" feature is there to help walk you through the moves required to win the deal.

Think you have the best Solitaire score around? With Apple's Game Center enabled, you can check the Game Center leaderboards to see how your Solitaire skills stack up against players all around the world!

Honored by Apple in their 2010 Rewind List, MobilityWare's Solitaire supports drag-and-drop and Tap-To-Move card movements, both portrait and landscape modes, and your game is saved when you get a call or other interruption - features not all iPhone/iPod touch/iPad apps support.
