Our Site Score

91/100

Solitaire City is the undisputed champion of fast-paced, competitive solitaire. What makes this 'Ad Free' version so compelling is the unique timed scoring system. It transforms what is usually a slow, contemplative game into a high-octane race for the global leaderboards. The sense of 'flow' you achieve when you hit a perfect sequence of moves while the multiplier is at its peak is a feeling few other card games can match.

The 'Interactive Training System' is also a standout feature. It’s essentially a personal tutor that highlights valid moves and explains the specific logic of complex variants like Alternations on the fly. This makes it the best app for actually *learning* new card games rather than just playing the ones you already know. The visual polish is top-tier, with 4K-ready backgrounds and a level of customization that lets you truly own the experience. It is a premium, addictive, and masterfully crafted card suite.

Dinsun Review

Dinsun here. Finally, a game that respects my time. No 'gems,' no 'energy,' no pop-ups. Just Solitaire. It’s been on the App Store for ages, and for good reason. The controls are perfect, the animations are smooth, and the variety of games is exactly what you need. It’s a conservative, traditional app that does one thing and does it better than anyone else.

It’s not 'exciting.' It’s Solitaire. But if you're like me and you appreciate a clean, functional experience that works offline, this is the gold standard. It’s worth the few dollars just to avoid the garbage-tier free versions that plague the store.

The Game

Available on: iPhone, iPad, iPod

Version 7.30Sat Aug 10 2024

1) Added two new versions of Demon, called "Superior Canfield" which is easier than Demon in that all the cards are dealt face up to the demon and empty spaces in the tableau are not automatically filled from the Demon.

2) Fixed a bug in Demon where sometimes you could place an Ace on the foundations even though the base card first dealt was different.

3) "Card Rotations" On/Off switch is back in the Settings screen.

4) Added a Card "Dragging Height" option in the Settings screen that allows you to adjust the visual height of the cards above the play area when they're dragged around the screen. This adjusts the appearance of the cast shadows.

3) There is an option that can ask you to confirm if you want to end a game on the Settings screen. It's called "Confirm New/End" and if you're prone to accidentally hitting the New button during play then simply turn it on.
