It's an excellent quality card game pack including 3 sound tracks, lots of options and statistics, alpha effects, and smooth animations.

The music's great, too. You can try out a demo version or buy it at <a href="http://pdamill.com/products.shtml#solitaire">PDAMill</a>.

Excellent game! The music/gameplay combo is a bit too addicting, so be prepared :twisted:

That looks great... more than just the standard "klondike" style solitaire.

This is an fantastic looking solitaire. However, I was dissapointed in the solitaire rules. Every version of Pyramid solitaire I have ever played is based off of 13, theirs is based off of 14 which just messes me up since I play that one all the time. There are also no options to flip 3 cards at a time instead of 1. If you want a great looking solitaire then this is it, however if you want a solitaire that is more focused on the game then look somewhere else.

This collection looks amazing but looks can be deceptive. All the coding appears to have gone into the graphics (which are excellent).

The instructions for each game are sparse, and it doesn't appear to tell you when you have no moves left (at least not that I can tell).

It may be that they will add a few gameplay features in the future but at the moment it could do with a bit more attention!
