Why buy on GOG.COM?
DRM FREE. No activation or online connection required to play.
The game was installed on a Windows 10 computer because it doesn't work on my Linux computer. I played up to level 18. Until then the game crashed 3 times. By this point, I had no interest in the game anyway. It's always the same: you check whether the card you've drawn is one above or below a card you've turned over. At a certain point, it's no fun anymore. Furthermore, from the player's point of view, it is not possible to plan which cards might still come because there are no defined piles of cards: this means that some cards always come back and many others never do.
generic card game done really badly. level select doesn't highlight imperfect levels. no on-screen star rating progress. really annoying and excessive 'card face changes after x turns' nonsense. endless mode is pointless. basic settings like volumes only available in the main menu, progress is stored in the registry.
power-ups are per-level, used instantly when bought and prices go up with each one THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE GAME. jokers and wildcards are lost at the end of the level. can't use the spade to remove the last remaining card, its very purpose.
offering 5 extra cards for 100 gold at the end of an incomplete level is very mobiley but potentially helpful, except there's no confirmation and the button is right under the last card. another example of stellar game design, a misclick losing you a bunch of money.
more never-before-seen idiocy: undo changes the next card. missed matching the 7, you see the next is a king, undo, match the 7, draw next card and it won't be the king again. are you serious? achievements on steam (I played it there) are bugged as well.
navigation is awkward. game mode selection comes up when starting a new game, no confirm button, close the window to continue. single screens of text with a skip button when it should say continue. the level complete screen should have more buttons (menu, map, garden) and continue shouldn't lead to the garden every single time, whether you can upgrade something or not, but load the next level.
overall, a whole lot worse than most other games in the genre and the bar isn't exactly high. instead of fixes (including bad grammar), devs told me of their 15-year experience and intentional design decisions based on player feedback. no idea who'd think some of these are convenient or acceptable, they're baffling and I'm glad no other solitaire does them.
Sure, as some have said the up/down card sequence is repetitive but I don't think this is meant to be played in long stretches as it's a casual-style game. I play a few minutes here and there and very much enjoy the beautiful scenery. I doubt it's something I'll want to play again but it's well worth the sale price as I've so far played a little over an hour and have plenty of game left. BTW, I installed via Lutris using WINE on my Manjaro desktop. So far so good.
200 levels and an endless mode is all you need to kill your time in this fun twist of the solitaire trope. Looks good and plays well. Great deal on a discount.
