Absolutely addicted to this game! Haven't beaten Golf or Pyramid on hard yet and I won't sleep until I do! Minor nitpick is that with the d-pad I can't easily switch left to right to go between game mode and start. Would also love to see more game modes in the future!

Thanks! The harder modes def takes both luck and some new strategies to beat. Good luck!

Hi! First, I love this game, it's simple but it's the first solitaire game that I really enjoy!

I had just a question, that I saw was asked before: is there any strategy to win the Pyramid (hard)? Because I have beaten Pyramid in one shot, but am nearly at 100 try on hard mode, and I don't see any way to win :')

Thanks - glad you like it!

It is totally doable but it also needs a good portion of luck. A few things to tip the scales in your favour:
- prioritise matching cards on the table with each other instead of using the pile
- re roll the start layout until you get something which gets rid of most visible cards without having to draw from the stack
- keep pushing :)

Hi! I'm really enjoying the game so far! It's very charming! 


I was wondering if there would be further updates planned to this game? There are a few options I think would be nice to have like an option to reset the win/loss counter.

Hello! Glad to hear you like it!

An update could absolutely happen if there is enough new stuff. Anything else you're thinking of?

Please excuse me if I come off too pushy. I really enjoy Solitaire and I love the aesthetic this game has, so these are mostly thoughts I had while playing it!

Thoughts:

  • An option to reset the win/loss counter (or maybe an option to hide it? I personally do not enjoy seeing the counter, but other players might!)
  • A volume slider for music and sfx because I like to multitask while playing Solitaire!
  • I think different colours backgrounds where you put down the cards could be nice, though it could disrupt the simpler aesthetic the game is going for?
  • I'm not entirely sure if its due to my strategies, but I think the Pyramid hard mode is unsolvable? I have a few hundred games on it, so I'm not sure if it's just a matter of skill since the other games can be won, even if the margins are not tilted towards the player's favour.

I believe that's all I had for now though. I hope this is alright!

I believe I've found a glitch with the p8.png cartridge. On the 'Card back unlocked' screen I can't get out of it. The arrow cursor doesn't want to go over the 'Sweet' button. This is while playing on a handheld. Sometimes if you're really quick with the button pushing it'll work while the arrow is moving. Incredible otherwise :)

aha! Must’ve missed that button somehow for the dpad controls. Does it resume properly if you restart it?
